Feel the News + Friends

Hiiii I’m here with the Feel the News after dark episode 2. I got high and talked about living in a slaveocracy because work was brutal this day. Much of what I say is heavily influenced by Saidiya Hartman’s Scenes of Subjection, Lorenzo Kom’boa Ervin, Anarchism and the Black Revolution, Martin Sostre , and Bell Hooks probably. Let me know your thoughts and feelings. It’s always nice to hear from...

Hiiiii! I’m back! I’ll start writing about my feelings of existence shortly. In the meantime I’m following my dreams of being a high newscaster with lots of opinions. This is the first episode of Feel the News After Dark, a late night comedy news show that happens at night after I work out and get high. I’ve given up on sobriety for now because I need my weed to survive being a person like the coo...

Happy New Year! On the December Feel the News live show before we knew who Luigi was I talked about how the person who assassinated the United Health Care CEO was a man of the people. Since then we’ve been lectured by the ruling class how it’s tacky and abhorrent to celebrate the death of a man. These are the same people who kill us so they can buy superyachts. So it’s only okay to cheer for peopl...

This week’s delight is me ranting about how Bridgerton is profeudalist propaganda. It’s been a while since I’ve recorded audio but I just had to for this one. I had so many thoughts about the show. Too many thoughts to write down, unless I wanted to write a novel. This is probably not the last rant you’ll get from me about Bridgerton. I hope you enjoy it! ❤️ Marcela P.S. I’ll be gone the next two...

I recently learned what a social break is from my brother and I wanted to share this new life changing concept with you. A social break is a break you take when you no longer have the capacity to handle a social situation and you let people know you need to take a moment. I hope you feel empowered to take social breaks when you need them because I will be! ❤️ Marcela This is a public episode. If y...

I was too tired to write the newsletter today. In lieu of the usual newsletter I’m sharing my very high thoughts on why we are not free. I was thinking about glass and then I got really sad because all I could think about was how glass used to be free sand. Like sand we are burned and molded by those who control us to create a restrictive form that serves their agenda. This form doesn’t allow us t...

Last time I got really high I recorded myself talking about how time is money because the capitalists have stolen our time from us. I’m sharing this segment of the recording with you even though I was really high and I sound absolutely unhinged. I just want you all to hear me out and I hope my writing clarifies what you just heard. What I mean by capitalists have stolen our time is that they have...

I’m taking a break from the weekly Feel the News newsletter to share with you my very high thought about what’s currently happening to unhoused people in NYC. Eric Adams, the mayor of NYC, has destroyed at least 300 houseless people’s  encampments. He has destroyed their community and thrown away their personal property. I initially recorded because I was too upset to write my actual thoughts so t...
