On the 10th anniversary of Phife Dawg's death, it is a good day to listen to A Tribe Called Quest's records. Every day is a good day to do that, but today it's maybe extra meaningful.

I, a fuckin dumbass, ate outdoors at a cafe and got up to get a napkin, came back to see a bird eating my food, and ate the food anyway. And immediately was like “oh that was probably not a good idea” and started googling around for info.

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live!

The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other - to disturb, even - is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice.
As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to - painful as it may be at times - is the freeing agreement to disagree.
Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich.
Silencing us impoverishes the whole world.
The WA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

Imagine going back in time to 1999 and telling people that Jimmy Kimmel would wind up a flashpoint for free speech “Did the feminazis take down The Man Show?” “No! Actual Nazis got into the US government!”

coates is genuinely a generational writer

What are we to make of a man who called for the execution of the American president, and then was executed himself? What are we to make of an NFL that, on one hand, encourages us to "End Racism," and, on the other, urges us to commemorate an unreconstructed white supremacist? And what of the writers, the thinkers, and the pundits who cannot separate the great crime of Kirk's death from the malignancy of his public life? Can they truly be so ignorant to the words of a man they have so rushed to memorialize? I don't know. But the most
telling detail in Klein's column was that, for all his praise, there was not a single word in the piece from Kirk himself.

This may explain why there’s an aggressive response to people who merely post Kirk’s own words. It threatens the existence of the alternate Kirk - the motivational speaker that had been marketed to young kids and white Christian groups through selective quotation & clips.

Now that we’re on the (evidence-less) “he was roommates with a trans person!” part of the narrative I’ll say that I’ve roomed with a lot of people over the years and I could barely get any them to pay utilities on time, let alone kill a guy

I was listening to an old Casey Kasem American Top 40 (I find this soothing these days) from 1985 where he told the story of Wendy Carlos, who scored The Shining and Tron, and her journey to becoming trans. Casey got all the pronouns right and it was presented as a slice of life, feel good story

It would be nice if someone could point to something other than “he had a family” as a reason to mourn Charlie Kirk. Just something constructive or even nice that he did with his time on earth. (Congrats to my child-rearing friends who are apparently free to be unrepentant shitheads)

I have a baseline distrust of YouTube explainers unless the person is old as dirt or looks like the went to school for the topic. Seen too many videos where the person is 25 and is describing something I was present for or have a degree in very inaccurately.
