What you are living through is a moment where the explicit assertion of white racial superiority has ascended to power and they’re looking to entrench white supremacy.

Kanye is right up there with R. Kelly. There’s no reason anybody should support anything of his.

Producing The Beatles @ptbeatles.bsky.social · 18/03/2025

Alex Chilton did an interview at Jazz Fest one year where he said of Big Star “We all wanted to be the Beatles but we weren’t good enough musicians.” I think a lot of people disagree with that assessment. RIP

The irony is not lost on me that we sweep all of the unhoused from their spots and say they can’t camo there, yet we allow people to camp out to save their spots for Endymion. Can we move all of those people to a warehouse in Gentilly?

The AP should stop covering Trump events. Instead send those White House reporters out into the field to report on the harms and repercussions of his policies. The U.S. public never needed coverage of pseudo-events anyway.

In preparation for today’s Super Bowl in New Orleans, state police forced over 100 homeless men and women onto buses under threat of arrest, dumping them in an unheated warehouse. Tents destroyed, belongings lost. Press are barred from the warehouse. The price tag for this cruelty? $17.5 million

Louisiana coerced unhoused people into an unheated warehouse – and paid $17.5m for it

Dozens of New Orleanians were bused to a site with insufficient heating and blankets days before the city is to host the Super Bowl

Cassidy is cowardly & craven. He does not care about Louisianians, health, science, or medicine. This support for RFK Jr shows that he only cares about his re-election chances. We always knew Kennedy was spineless garbage but Cassidy knows better and now confirms to us that he does not care. At all.

If you have been a donor to Second Harvest, with the RC Archdiocese threatening to take donation $$ from them to pay for child abuse claims, I suggest you switch to toupsfamilymeal.com for the great work they do w/o connection to a religious org.

Happy birthday to this smokeshow. Saturday was @juliapretus.bsky.social’s birthday. I didn’t post anything cuz we were out celebrating her. But if you don’t know, she’s the bees goddamn knees, and the best partner and friend in the world. I’m a lucky lucky man, and glad she was born on Feb 1 1981.

Never forget that there is a high percentage of white ppl in this country who would rather see it destroyed than share it. I thought we were paying the price for electing Barack Obama, but now I know it’s deeper than that. We’re paying the price for the Civil Rights act of 1964.

THIS. I'm not a fan of all the nostalgic takes about New Orleans being magic and all its people being wonderful and resilient. New Orleans is a largely broken city where the profits of a few are prioritized over the needs of many, and as a result, tourists are always prioritized over residents.
