I cannot keep this to myself. There is a website (radio.garden) where you can listen to radio stations all over the world for free. No log in. No email address. Nothing.
When the site loads, you are looking at the globe. Slide the little white circle over the green dots (each green dot is a radio station) until you find one you like.
I have been listening to this station in the Netherlands and it absolutely slaps.
EDIT: Replies tell me that this doesn't function in the UK without a VPN.

in further genocidal news: conservatives are currently violating patient privacy protections to create lists of queer people so they can be tracked down and attacked with the might of the state.
i should pick a project to research that has absolutely nothing to do with genocide so that i can convince my brain to continue research

Tired: we live in a society
Wired (on crack/Whitehead): any collection of actual entities and eternal objects is a society. Therefore life itself is a society just as much if not more than "we".

@exiliaex a rly good book i was reading was about this, and it was p good tbh https://www.amazon.co.uk/States-Liberation-Dictatorship-Democracy-European/dp/1487542143
Basically, it talks about both west/east germany and how these laws compare, plus explains the years before and after. I'd definitely recommend.
if you want to read more it's called Paragraph (or Section) 175.
Did you know that the law banning homosexuality in Germany that the Nazis used to start their persecution of queers was founded in 1532, under the Holy Roman Empire, as described in the Constitutio Criminalis Carolina.
Did you know that law stayed on the books til 1994?
i'm gonna have to start reading Heidegger soon, i think. my Agamben readings have gotten to the point that all serious interlocutors want to discourse about Agamben with Heidegger as the playing field.

Angela Davis: "You have to act as if it were possible to radically transform the world. And you have to do it all the time."
one time someone told me thay they loved hearing me play music "even if you dont hit all the notes right"
"In the Shibboleth, example and exception become indistinguishable: “Shibboleth” is an exemplary exception or an example that functions as an exception."
example and exception are the two poles by which any category seeks to maintain itself
today was the first time i came across the concept of permacomputing and its kinda interesting
"No, the fascists haven't taught us anything at all... it's all stuff that we couldn't and wouldn't want to do. And it's all stuff that we predicted would happen the day the bourgeoisie felt seriously threatened... the advent of fascism should serve as a lesson to the legalist socialists."
omg FINALLY i have internet again

Right after defending my dissertation, I had another peer reviewed article published today: "'We're Pro-Choice and We Riot!': Anarcha-Feminism in Love and Rage (1989-98)" in a new special issue of the open access journal Coils of the Serpent. https://coilsoftheserpent.org/2023/06/were-pro-choice-and-we-riot/
"Anarcha-feminists in Love and Rage (1989-98), the foremost revolutionary anarchist organization of the late twentieth century United States, made significant interventions into both the anarchist and feminist movements. This new generation of anarcha-feminists theorized and practiced intersectional revolutionary politics in their struggle against patriarchy, capitalism, the state, and white supremacy.
In this article, I first address anarcha-feminist struggles against male dominance within Love and Rage before turning to their contributions to the fight for reproductive freedom, queer and trans liberation, AIDS activism, and the fight against workfare at the City University of New York.
Unlike liberal feminists who sought legal reforms and formal social equality, anarcha-feminists fought to strengthen women’s autonomy and self-determination through grassroots organizing. Although their contributions are often overlooked, I ultimately argue that anarcha-feminists in Love and Rage were central to the evolution and revitalization of both feminism and anarchism and shaped the development of revolutionary intersectional politics in the late twentieth century and beyond."
