Danny Trejo being in the Ben Shapiro pro-ICE movie after being in a movie about how it’s moral to kill Joe Arpaio is a real bummer, there’s no way the money’s that good

Hundreds marched through Downtown Minneapolis today, supported by a large list of unions and community groups. Making stops at Target and the Federal Courthouse asking for Target to sign the Democracy Pledge and demanding charges against all Anti-ICE protesters be dropped.

I’m more sympathetic to the median voter (derogatory) than most people on here but it seems like the only way you can instill some sense of civic virtue is to shove the consequences directly into their face after the fact

seeing conservative men debate how to dress online is very funny. can't dress up or wear interesting casualwear bc you've made any visible interest in dress to be a sign of homosexuality. but you feel the need to dress better bc you've linked dress to respectability. a prison of your own making.

On the one hand, it’s comforting to know that Americans aren’t uniquely stupid, voters everywhere have skulls filled with mush and worms. On the other hand, global fascism is probably not an ideal state of affairs.

Found this score at the newly opened Onion City Records in West Town during the West Town Art Walk today. Onion City is the sister record store to Bridgeport Records and will probably succeed in a more affluent neighborhood. So patronize it, record collectors.

Yeah, the incident with Cornell’s president and his car / hitting the current and former students will really be pointed to as an important moment moving forward. He concocted some ridiculous story, didn’t express any regret, and everyone just moved on.

The ironic thing, of course, is that "Woke 1" was the exact opposite of the Witch Trials. There were no actual witches. That's why the Witch Trials were bad.

I'm pretty sure that having it go to Sunnyside, & use the lot next to the Old Town School, already was an extension. The problem is the street width; choke points in the middle; too many people just standing around in the middle instead of moving off to the side to chat; some of the food lines

The problem with the Salem Witch Trials wasn’t “no forgiveness”, it was that they forced a false confession out of an enslaved woman, then executed her and a bunch of other women

people are saying maybe the cornell case leads to the end of campus greek life. which feels daunting but plausible. my preference though would be the end of ivy league universities & everyone whose degree is from one of them has to wear a dunce cap until they've officially proven they aren't a shit

Less than 1% of major party nominees for Congress are working class. It is one of the most fundamental ways that Congress is not representative. And their views, e.g. on unregulated gambling websites, are apt to be different. www.bloomberg.com/features/202...

Less than 1% of major-party candidates competing for a seat in the US Congress have a background in manual trades or service industries.

I went down the rabbit hole of figuring out how they sell stuff so cheap and it was not a happy rabbit hole for me. tl;dr they are basically a private equity/tech firm that sells algorithmic tools. their supply chain / model is basically like shein www.youtube.com/watch?v=HFjJ...

There's something perverse about how people need their cars to be pristine, and untouched. I think it's because they come to view it as an extension of their body. Me, I view mine as the urban equivalent of farm equipment
