it's not always possible to fix all sources of burnout but you need to identify them and you need to stop hurting yourself over them. i cannot stress this enough: it's a debuff, not a failing. it's not *you*, it's a thing that is *happening* to you.

So I finally killed my Goodreads account because I'm trying to limit my Amazon usage to as little as possible and switched to Storygraph a Black woman-owned book tracking platform that uses machine learning for making suggestions, which are disturbingly accurate.

The cool part is that it consumes GoodReads exports so you have all you're reading data.

You should sign up. And when you do, hit me with a link and I'll follow you.

We've literally got shortages of the materials used to make a load of technology, and corporations are manufacturing non-serviceable, and even disposable versions of that technology.

Fucking capitalism.

Teaching has taught me the importance of being soft in a hard world. I think that's the trait the American police state depends on dying.
Because if we can give any respite to others and to ourselves, we can continue fighting and building solidarity with one another.

Love y'all. ❤️
