FDR threaded the needle with a safety net without abandoning capitalism, but there were significant communist and facist movements, and some rich people didn't like the social safety net policies and tried to instigate a facist coup.

Parton ("9 to 5," 1980) provides a more trenchant critique of capital than does Marx ("Das Kapital," 1867) because as a researcher, Parton correctly frames the problem of capital as exacerbating but not supplanting other pre-existing human dynamics such as gender roles. In this essay, I will

We’re not in the habit of recognizing celebrity deaths here at 925. That said, Dolly Parton is a national treasure and some folks here joke that Dolly is our Locals patron saint. After all her song “9 to 5” is our anthem. Today we remember all the love and kindness Dolly brought the world.
Tribute-style portrait of a Dolly Parton performing in a ruffled light purple blouse, arm raised and singing into a microphone, overlaid with the lyric: "You're just a step on the bossman's ladder / But you've got dreams he'll never take away."

There is no reason why anyone in this country should be working more than four days a week. NONE. Hell, the senate barely works 100 days a year. It's time for equality in this country, and the quality of life we can afford for everyone.

I think Chuck Schumer was wrong not to endorse Mamdani, who seems both totally free of antisemitism and thoroughly decent in his personal life, but Schumer's continued support for Platner in Maine makes his refusal to support his party's candidate for NYC mayor all the more indefensible.

Yeah Pattie filing for a trademark to sell apparel and do environmental activism under “Pattie Gonia” is rather different than just “drag performance”, and I understand Patagonia was fine with the latter and the activism but trying to register the mark for the same goods is a bridge too far.

They actually had already come to an agreement on that. Pattie’s basically reneging on it.

I think Pattie is trying to bully Patagonia into a licensing deal but overplayed their hand and Patagonia respectfully said “you’re ok but we don’t want to get into bed with you.” Honestly Pattie seems like a bit of a jerk.

That’s a product difference though. Pattie Gonia wants to sell the same types of products as Patagonia.

Cities are just as USAmerican as rural areas if not more. How many cities that get shat on are in the original area of the 13 colonies? I’ll wait. (NYC, Boston, Baltimore, Philly, Newark…). The rural west are the Johnny-come-latelies, not the cities.
