Pro-democracy: progressive tax on estates/family trusts capped at 90% above $100M. NOT pro-democracy: demands to abide by the day's online purity test.

And yet somehow they routinely manage to arrest some of the most fearsome killers on the planet without causing the ridiculous amount of bloodshed of their US colleagus. Speaking as a child of a cop who worked always heavily armed (was a judge's bodyguard in Sicily during a Mafia war)

Q: Why does Montreal have such a great jazz scene? A: The bands on stage in July are those whose fans were standing in line at -40C in January to watch them perform in a St. Catherine café. They better be good.

I watched this ad and it’s amazing. Doesn’t even use his name. The very clear almost explicit subtext is: my dudes, if I can suck it up and vote for this lying sack of shit, you can too, okay?

A two panel meme of the Simpsons. The top panel has kirk van houten gesturing to a race care bed. The text reads "im an AI guy. How many local models do YOU run?" The bottom panel is homer with a pope hat photoshopped onto his head. The bottom text reads "I run the catholic church."

I'll keep repeating till I am blue-faced: to really understand fascism you must read the Italians who lived through it for 20 years and a disastrous war. For example, Malaparte, Pertini, Calvino. Eco, though he was a child in 1940, was smart and articulate enough to distill truths in that essay.
Faacism is not an opinion, it's a crime.I'd rather have the most imperfect democracy than a perfect tiranny.

But, see, you should ask a different question, namely what they'd do if a cop demanded a BJ from their mom/dad/sister/son/daughter. There is a fraction of leopard-averse GOPers for whom a lightbulb might dimly lit up.

Full Retatrutide phase 3 obesity data published today. It's gonna take a minute to fill dissect this. The appendix alone has 70 pages of data. Long story short we created a drug that's almost too good. Huge chunks of people stopped or reduced doses from excess weight reductions.

I am also saying it, though I (1) live in a drought-affected part of the west and (2) am very anti-data center. There is one weird trick for solving the drought: no more inappropriate agriculture in the southwest

The fake Zuck speech in the trailer is totally right. Do you want one person to decide what ads can run on social media platforms? It's 2026 - look around! What if the Trump-aligned tech oligarchs just said they were taking down all Democratic ads because of "fact-checks"?

And in multiple ways: we need a shock-and-awe approach to billionaire taxation. Who needs a wealth tax when you can just make them liquidate wealth to pay taxes? Ideas: * Increase marg. estate tax to 90% above $500M. * Make large charitable trusts return tax-free only after 100 years.

"Signs of Fascism" originated in my town. (Sequim, WA) I filmed it. I remember getting a call, "hey your video got 5,000 views." By the end of the day it had 60K. Over 100K in a few days from just one platform. Then my DM blew up! Everyone wanted to replicate the signs. Nice to see the signs today.

I'll take it, provisionally. You fight fascism with the allies you can get, not ideal ones that might exist if things were perfect. After fascists are voted out we can have a rule-based conversation on, e.g., the proper bounds between church and state. Until then KEEP YER FARKING EYES ON THE BALL.
