Screen shot of a portion of an essay from Vajra Chandrasekera that reads: “Life in dire modernity is about understanding the depth of the multiple-yet-singular emergencies we live amongst, and translating that understanding into uncompartmentalized processes, into live cultures, that are ever-present in your personhood in movement, your personhood as ecosystem. All this must be done without triggering the workaday panic response of the body, which is unsuited for dealing with crises so much larger than the individual animal. You cannot fight or flee: you can only allow yourself to be changed by terrible knowledge, and act, with as much thought and care and attention as you can scrape up from the ulcerated lining of your stomach”

Screenshot of a post from a man named Ian Dunt that reads "The left is completely silent on the subject of men getting laid - which, generally speaking, they are v. interested in doing and will continue to be interested in regardless of whether progressives want to talk about it. So the stage has been left entirely clear for the far-right."
