A couple went on a Fox News podcast and claimed the state of #Massachusetts took away their teen because they won't help the teen transition. But it's actually because the father was charged with beating and threatening to kill the teen and the mother was charged with witness intimidation.

“Seth Moulton has voted for resolutions blaming Black Lives Matter for the death of cops, expressing gratitude toward ICE, and commending Border Patrol agents as they held immigrants in deadly conditions.” #Massachusetts #mapoli

The press will say this is due to Moulton's remarkable missteps this summer: phone slapping, trans athletes, and defense-tech sweetheart deals. But Moulton became a politically marked man when he facilitated genocide, and worked to crush the voices trying to stop it. #mapoli #Massachusetts #Gaza

Daniel Bessner embarrassing himself trying to be the next Mark Fisher, Mike Davis, or Jefferson Cowie, but coming off more like a Doug Lain. If you want a good commentary on the decline of the first wave aerospace economy with punk music try Penelope Spheeris' "Suburbia."
Bessner tweets about his new Imperialist Realism substack with his "Empire of Grunge" article subtitled "How William Boeing Made Kurt Cobain."From his substack article: And finally, if the logging industry in Grays Harbor had never deteriorated, Kurt would probably have had a happier childhood. Given how his story ended, perhaps that would have been better. But the fact was that the area's economic downturn produced the domestic unhappiness that defined Kurt's early life, giving him the subject matter for some of his greatest songs and the motivation to leave Aberdeen behind.
Simply put, no Boeing, no Nirvana.The top portion of his substack article with the blog name, article title, and Bessner's handle and credit.

when you tell us that the people who murdered comity and civility—who are trying to kill and rob and enslave us—are actually your dear friends, you don’t create civility, but despair; we see you don’t actually believe the danger is real, can’t be trusted to fight the battle that needs to be fought.

Let's do a reading experiment. substack.com/@sarahkendzi...
The “folks don’t read long-form writing anymore” takes ignore the biggest change: paywalls. Podcasts, Tik Toks, and memes are free. Long-form, thoughtful writing is often prohibitively expensive. Articles need to be as accessible as possible if you want folks to appreciate the written word.

I keep my newsletter free for all. Those who can pay, do. Those who can’t afford to pay can also read everything. No one is priced out. If I can make this work as one woman in Missouri, why can’t giant corporations do it? Take down the paywalls for one week as an experiment and see if folks get more informed and start reading longer works again.

The reason Trump screamed “RIGGED!” about the 2020 election was so that he could cheat and rig the 2024 election as much as he wanted. Because if anyone says the word ‘rigged’ now, even if it is, you sound like him. This is an old Nazi tactic.
