I am holding monthly masked gatherings in Yachats- this month is forest bathing and agate hunting on the 22nd! 🥰😷❤️ #thirdspaces #community
We need more autonomous gatherings too, to skill share and learn about how to do all these things but also build connections in our local communities through just hanging out, sharing food. Teaching anarchism 101. Feeling nostalgic for those spaces right now (the encampments did that too).

a lot of us mention that THE YOUTHZ frequently have weird hang ups due to COVID, lack of thirdspaces, a reaction to hypersexual abuse trauma of the 2000s, like I said elsewhere, what differentiates my younger cohorts is that they choose hyposexualism as a shield

50 years or so ago we started tearing down the thirdspaces and the systems that let us build communities and replaced them with cable TV and 'Stranger Danger'.

Paris life outside at a 3rd space, sunny morning coffee at Le Corail by Square Montholon with a view of bike commuters, slow speed limits, & the safety of sturdy metal bollards.

Greenspaces, outdoor seating, walkable/bikable cities... essentially anything that facilitates greater human interaction while we eat/read/drink (or do anything else to provide sustenance and stimulation for our brains/bellies/bodies)

This Poem by Rachel Clemens. IYKYK.

"like glass bubbles
sent to break against
our clumsy lips."

Exactly.. or all the waitstaff who unbuttoned one extra button and kept their ears open.

Sort of makes me wonder if the US didn't abandon thirdspaces as a security measure (along with the focus on profit).

I see it more as pining for thirdspaces that don't exist anymore. At least, not in the sense that we wish they did.

That, and "save the world" fic with continually escalating stakes has been played out for awhile now. Readers might be gravitating to cozy fic because they can see themselves in it.

#AntiFascist always
I talked with @prisonculture.bsky.social, Alison Macrina, and Katie Clark about libraries as public infrastructure, contested political terrain, and spaces of possibility—and about what it means to fight for them in this fascistic moment.
Why Libraries Matter in a Fascist Moment
“If we lose this as a public good and as a free public service, we will have lost everything,” says Mariame Kaba.

We talk about loneliness and disconnection as individual problems, but they’re systemic. The loss of third spaces has made it harder to build community and care networks. It’s not a personal failing—it’s a societal one. #SystemicChange #ThirdSpaces #CommunityCare

Libraries are the best thirdspaces.

That's it. That's the skeet.

What kinds of art materials would you enjoy playing with if you could rent supplies and hang out somewhere cozy for a few hours?

I'd play with nice iridescent watercolors. I miss painting sometimes, but my workspace is already a "book factory" & sculpting space.

With the Twin Cities Under Siege, Restaurants Become Hubs of Solidarity

Restaurants, bars, and coffee shops are collecting donations, handing out whistles, and acting as gathering sites for volunteers and observers.

Small businesses become resistance hubs in Minneapolis.
Great article.
“I’ve never seen anything like it,” says one organizer. “The scale of it is so, so massive.”

there weren't any thirdspaces for young people in my town when i was a teenager, so what we did instead was get drunk under a bridge/on wasteland/anywhere else we were out of view of the adults who sought us out specifically to beat us up because they didn't like how we dressed
