I'm humbled to be writing a book on the Biden administration & Gaza — a chronicle of the choices, missteps and complicity after Oct. 7 that led to massacres, a historic protest movement & a more dangerous world for us all
Thanks to all who've backed my work. Let's keep talking.

I was really upset that homeless people did not have access to the $1,400 stimulus check.
I just found this out. If you are homeless, you can go to a tax return office where they will file something called EIP return. They will put the money on a debit card after.
Retweet.!

"all boys love infinite jest" is just a misconception. all boys have a copy of infinite jest due to its large size, which makes it the ideal book to hollow out and use to hide a copy of Louis Sachar's 1998 masterpiece Holes

"In the abolition movement, we've been trying to find ways to talk about Palestine so that people who are attracted to the campaign to dismantle prisons in the US will also think about the need to end the occupation in Palestine. It can't be an afterthought." —Angela Davis, 2014
