This article got me to subscribe to @liberalcurrents.com. Big Bend is otherworldly and the entire Republican project is psychological warfare against the American people. They're destroying a national park because people love it, and warehousing immigrants because human life means nothing to them.

they destroyed literacy and parties in a single generation... when I was 23 I read library books for fun and any given (2008) Tuesday night involved riding bikes nude through town with a group of ~60 after enough $2 beers to kill a horse. My razr phone never worked. No one had a job. Life was good.

we made the stupidest, least curious, most venal, most violent man the american experiment has ever produced something of a king to rule us. a random person plucked off of a death row in any state prison would almost assuredly be an improvement

I actually think the media is obsessed with tradwifery because they want to will it into existence. Where is the breathless coverage of beautiful geniuses doing actually cool things? It’s because they don’t want you to know about them and cast off your own shackles. WAKE UP SHEEPLE
