If you found that ironically identitarian sob-story about le wokeism unsatisfying, here's a syllabus of writers (in no particular order) for those who want to read some leftist/ish writing about the problems of (neo)liberalism and identity politics:

have seen multiple videos of tiny grandmas in my hometown of Charlotte, North Carolina scaring off ICE agents with their rifle and nightgown, nobody does it like southern leftists.

By popular demand, here is a line by line close reading of the Curtis Yarvin poem, both in terms of craft, and social and political implications. This is a quick first pass, the kind of thing you do before an essay, but I wanted to show how it's done: avmarraccini.com/Yarvin-Poemโ€ฆ

Our campaign is rooted in the belief that Los Angeles should work for the people who make it run: renters, workers, families, and small business owners. Join the movement.

Haven't been writing much poetry lately bc of life but this was fun/challenging and brought me closer to my mom. We talked through interpretations and the nature of poetry. Thank you @richardsiken! War of the Foxes was one of the 1st poetry collections I read after college.

โ€œQueer' not as being about who you're having sex with (that can be a dimension of it); but 'queer' as being about the self that is at odds with everything around it and that has to invent and create and find a place to speak and to thrive and to live.โ€ - bell hooks
Replying to @whimpermanence
this is why queer desire is considered so radical. it does not accept what it is given , it bends the bars on its cage , it questions this and this and this and wonders what else could be
