Ron DeSantis is revoking the liquor license of an Orlando venue following a drag queen show. That’s what happens in Florida when you do something that DeSantis doesn’t like, state power is weaponized to intimidate and censor you. orlandosentinel.com/news/bre…

very happy to have this piece about cake/witches/the Balkans out in Joyland
"I imagined clubbing Desislava with my wooden spoon until she bled, smearing thick layers of Funfetti batter onto her wounds as revenge." — from 'Baba Smallpox' by Eleanor Stern joylandmagazine.com/fiction/…

My little soapbox is that this would be entirely preventable if the US moved away from at-will employment. Notice periods on both sides are common in other countries but always seems to be missing in discussions about flaws in the US employment system
An extraordinary number of Americans have been quitting their jobs since 2021— some flexing their power in a white-hot labor market, others re-evaluating their priorities during the pandemic. The rise in turnover has a cost in productivity. nyti.ms/3jQ7B76

Something I didn’t touch on in my @outland_art piece is that Hirst’s apathetic approach to his work extends to his treatment of staff. He seems content to run his studio like an Amazon warehouse, seeing labor as a resource to be exploited and discarded

“Nava’s paintings,” on view at @PaceGallery, London, “offer a tongue-in-cheek reaction to classicizing forces, a celebration of unbridled childlike imagination underpinned by an awareness of the artist’s own tenacity,” writes @GoldmanKay. artforum.com/picks/robert-na…

Machine-learning software and microorganisms become Davide Balula’s coauthors in “Some farmed, others mined” @frank_elbaz, writes @GoldmanKay. “By ceding control, Balula reveals the natural order and innate inconsistencies of these intractable forces.” artforum.com/picks/davide-ba…

"Like his criticisms of Obama or 'The 1619 Project,' Reed’s perspectives on Jim Crow are both incisive and incendiary." @GoldmanKay reads "The South: Jim Crow and Its Afterlives," Adolph L. Reed Jr.'s memoir-analysis of life under Jim Crow. lareviewofbooks.org/article/…

Meanwhile, @OCPSnews reduced the kid who stole and destroyed a pride flag at our walkouts expulsion to a suspension because they “couldn’t argue that it was hate speech” Tell me how this isn’t hate speech.
My school is currently “investigating” me about this piece because my history teacher doesn’t like it. bruh.
