The larger picture here concerns my not-so-humble, not-so-secret ambition, which is to function as a human hinge between the people I know giving so much of themselves to community #mutualaid efforts; the #makerspace and OSHW heads; the folks who are into #coops and the cooperative economy; experimental #architecture and spatial practices; everyone working so hard to realize #CLTs and other decommodified forms of land tenure; and abolitionist politics of #liberatoryharmreduction and #care.
