I love Emmanuel Hocquard, so I'll take the liberty of adding two things related to him: 1. His poem from the collection 'Plan for Pond 4', 2. His photo with Raquel Levy

In honor of Saint Lucia’s Day, here is my translation of “An Unexpected Reunion” by Johann Peter Hebel, which Ernst Bloch (and maybe Franz Kafka too) regarded as the most beautiful story ever written:

The fact that ecomodernism and imperialism can be disarticulated is what warrants a special issue on their confluence in contemporary imperialism. This is especially important if we're to understand, critique, and contest imperialist so-called 'green transitions'. 6/

I wrote about jennifer pap‘s new translation of Leslie Kaplan‘s short novel miss nobody knows. Revolutionary discouragement remains a killer.

My little keepsake of him is this screenshot I took on 9 May 2021, saved on my computer as “asad haider.png”
some things I'll say that we're particularly influential: -Asad's Twitter presence -his reading of both althusser and badiou, and his insistence that the latter was relevant to the politics of race -the worker's inquiry dossier and intro essay -the whole issue on the state

Never forget that he blamed Bari Weiss (@bariweiss) for his death. May his memory be eternal. May her tiny, putrid soul be haunted by his greatness and her guilt each day.
“If I must die, let it be a tale.” Today marks the anniversary of the martyrdom of Dr. Refaat Alareer. We will never forget you… Dr. Refaat was killed by Israel on December 6, 2024.

I'm frankly devastated over Asad Haider's death. He was a major force on the left. He lived and breathed theory. Asad was able to take the most baroque theory and make it speak to practical political tactics and strategy. Very few could do that as well as him. Every issue of his

Devastating, another incisive thinker gone much too soon. How can it be?
Just heard of Asad Haider’s passing and it still doesn’t feel real. Brilliant, funny in the sharpest way, and never careless with his politics or his friendships. He showed what Marxist thought could be when carried with clarity and courage. His work and his spirit will keep

Along w brianna wu and the like, it’s been something to see the hasbara-grade drop, just stomped on product in the wild
@AraquelBloss The following are acts of antizionist racism : -Calling someone “genocidal” or a “genocide supporter.” -Using slurs such as “zio” or “zionazi.” -Forcibly defining another person as a “Zionist” without their consent, or using the term in ways that bear no relation to their own

Whatever you think about Mamdani leading a social democratic coalition into the halls of official power, they are playing political hardball and my opinion is that any force from the left of that burgeoning incumbency should act in kind by playing hardball, too.

Student debtors, pay attention. If some illegalities end up happening, it could render our student loans illegitimate and therefore uncollectable.
