Convention centres are a 1980s urban development tool. Much like hash was a 1980s recreational drug.

This should be the biggest action against ICE actions against ICE in the city so far, but is really a chance to pull the labor movement more deeply into deportation defense with greater resources and millions of members in key industries. Come out and make some new friends!

Trump's proposed 10% cap on credit card rates is great politics, but it is even better grift. The Speaker has already signalled it won't happen and the banks will have to spend a ton of money lobbying Congress so the debt spiral can continue.

Trump doesnβt see people or communities. He only sees rent gaps. That is the centre of his world view.

The Here Project: Pride and Belonging in African Art
200 stunning images in this companion book to the Smithsonianβs National Museum of African Art exhibition celebrates more than 60 LGBTQ+ African artistsWe are here. This powerful volume platforms artists whose work reflects their identities and experiences as African LGBTQ+ individuals. Its very existence challenges homophobia by centering queer voices and visions amidst historical legacies of erasure and repression. At the same time, the LGBTQ+ experience in Africa is not monolithic. Political, social, and cultural freedoms and limits vary widely across both the continent and the wider diaspora, and the artists represented here have also been selected to help readers recognize that diversity.More than 200 stunning images represent a range of media, including painting, photography, digital art, fashion, installation, and performance. The empowering and evocative imagery makes visible marginalized bodies and lives: Athi-Patra Rugaβs tapestry Versatile Queen presents himself in drag to confront normative ideas of Blackness and masculinity; Zanele Muholiβs self-portrait Muholi Muholi, Parktown uses makeup and saturation to highlight the blackness of their skin tone in contrast to prevailing representations of Black women; Mehdi-Georges Lahlouβs sculpture of a man with rainbow blown glass bananas atop his head recalls exoticized colonial imagery.The text approaches artworks at an intimate level and places them in larger historical and artistic contexts. Grouping the works in thematic sections draws parallels across art and fosters ongoing conversations: Family: explores how birth and chosen families shape understanding of awareness of self and the world Intimacy: considers self-realization made possible through bodily connection Joy: focuses on stories of happiness, connection, and pleasure, contradicting stereotypes of queer trauma Spirit: represents African faith traditions and shows space for queer people Fluidity: disrupts expectations of gendered categories Belong: asserts how queer peopleβs experiences are rooted in the larger history and cultures that shaped them Action: expresses political activism at its heart Futures: presents utopian visions of a world to come In its continental and diasporic survey of queer African art and artists, The Here Project is rare in its scope and scale and pays beautiful tribute to contemporary artists making essential work.

I played hockey late tonight. I watched the game before I left. I watched the game on the bench. I watched the game when I got home. Correction. I watched the games.
