Starting to make more sense to me why I saw several disturbing shirts/patches like this at the airport last weekend from guys who looked like they were cosplaying Chris Kyle

Saw a guy with this patch on his backpack at the airport today. Wearing something like this should probably put you on some kind of domestic terrorism watch list. What is the implication here, exactly...?

Really good clarification on a lot of things from MPS school board chair. My takeaway: he's saying the proposals may not save money, but it would provide more students with media specialists, elective teachers, other offerings in an equitable way. And stable/better working conditions for teachers.

My big hypothesis is that the old state flag discourse is just a replacement for all of the Trump flags that folks no longer feel comfortably flying. Was surprised driving up north last weekend how few Trump flags or decals I saw. The old state flag is just a less embarrassing way of vice signaling.

There are so many bad things that it's easy to forget the original Springfield Haitian saga where the pet-eating hoax was spread by Vance/Trump and, despite being 1000% not true, their community had bomb threats to schools, grocery stores and health clinics. Just insane levels of bullying/racism
