Notes

@iA PS1. The design of that big circle cover was genius! When you looked at the magazines comparing it to the Saturn, the Saturn just looked bloated! The controller too, before that all game pads were just a pad. Its ergonomic design made you imagine how comfortable it’ll be!

The library just added this list for “Social Justice and Activism for Kids”! Great timing! I’ve been thinking about how to educate my kids on these issues. Thanks Public Library!!

Just felt a stab of heartache from all that sadness 😢

I wonder if the people I argue with on the right feel sadness for others? Ever? Or is it only rage for themselves?

@JusticeKazzy_ I’m reading @AnandWrites’s Winners Take All right now and it’s really good! Another good book that can tell you how these ideas have gotten so prevalent in the right is Jane Mayor’s Dark Money.

@JusticeKazzy_ Japan (and East Asia in general) is a step behind the curve in public media’s handling of materials about prejudice. But bigots who believe minorities aren’t being oppressed? Oh they’re f*cking everywhere!

Follow up on the conversation. I think I’m very good at conveying the fact that I understand other peoples points, and pretty good at getting people to come to an understanding of mine… until they have to get back on their holidays. (Does #livingwhileblack have holidays?)

@leahculver Good people: “Oh yeah, I never realized but now that you mentioned it. Yes! Language matters, we should do better.”

Bad people: “People who challenge my old ways of life are racist toward me! I’m being oppressed!”
