It's why I've been at pains to point out since February 2025 that the fascists weren't actually having any fun. Their parties SUCKED, they have nothing interesting to show re: fashion, what actual good music have they produced over the past couple of years, no good movies... etc etc etc.

Gets back to the idea that they genuinely believed they could manufacture a cultural movement with broad popular support by buying up channels like Twitter, TikTok, film and television studios, which they assumed had artificially created the popular culture they sought to replace.

From the NYTimes Climate Newsletter (messaging-custom-newsletters.nytimes.com/dynamic/rend...), Texas schools now must cancel football practice if wet-bulb temps exceed 33°C.
Schools are now required to cancel outdoor practices if the wet-bulb temperature exceeds 92 degrees Fahrenheit. Above 90 Fahrenheit, practice time is capped at an hour, and football players must take off all protective gear. At lower temperatures, frequent water breaks and the presence of a “rapid cooling zone,” like an ice bath, are required.

MN State Fair - ICE Out adaptation of Picasso’s Guernica made entirely from crops Picasso’s depiction of the massacre has been invoked in other contexts including the “African Guernica” painted by Dumile Feni in 1967 depicting the violence and oppression of apartheid South Africa.
Wall art with a ribbon next to it from the Minneapolis Institute of Art. The image has features from Picasso’s Guernica but includes MN elements. A prominently featured loon with wings spread. A person on the ground appears to hold a cellphone. Someone is holding a sign that reads ICE OUT. Below the art piece are two cards. One says 
Jennifer Nelson
Fridley, MN
Natural Colors

The other is a piece of cardboard with a label for each seed or crop component used to complete the art work.

I don’t think my description can do justice to the impact this has but I also don’t think viewing it on a phone screen is doing it justice. Image called African Guernica
