As someone who's demographically 'Hindu' and lives in India, a defacto Hindu ethnostate for a decade now, witnessing across my life and every day the horrors that ethnonationalism perpetrates, the idea that ethnonationalist movements are racist poison isn't remotely controversial.

Rahm covered Laquan McDonald's murder, which is disqualifying on its own. In addition, he's been catastrophically wrong on major issues. He was against Obamacare (he wanted to add more women and children to Medicaid). He also deprioritized appointing judges because he didn't think it mattered.

Every October, we love to remember that charmingly spooky Fruity Pebbles ad from 1999 where Barney dresses like a ghost/skeleton to steal Fred's pebbles. But, let's not forget that one year earlier, Post used deeply disturbing Cronenbergian body horror to sell Fruity Pebbles!
As aliens fly off into the Bedrock night in their flying saucer, they have left Fred and Barney alone in an eerily desolate stoneage street, their bodies mutilated and recontextualized, with limbs rearranged, and heads protruding from torsos. In Barney's case, his torso has been replaced with that of a turtle. Below, a purple alien grins with delight as it psychokinetically moves boxes of cereal

from 2001. no one’s doing product testimonials like this anymore. t.co/PEswCtbEZz
Toyota's unease at being associated with the Taliban and Al Qaeda is evident. In its September statement, the company said,
'Toyota does not have a sales or distribution channel in Afghanistan, and we do not export vehicles to that country."
Somewhat less laconic was Wade Hoyt, Toyota's spokesman in New York, who put the best corporate spin on the situation this week.
"It is not our proudest product placement," he said. "But it shows that the Taliban are looking for the same qualities as any truck buyer: durability and reliability."

Years ago I interviewed Houston Mayor Annise Parker who told me one of the main reasons the city was able to cut homelessness by so much is she forced all the governments and nonprofits into a room and made them use the same data system. Meanwhile in LA www.latimes.com/california/s...
The agencies use different data systems, and even different Google spreadsheets, to produce their reports and often have different bureaus within them managing different housing programs.For example, a senior director for Bass told the interviewers that the Inside Safe program uses an internal Google spreadsheet to manage its occupancy records and does not have access to the Homeless Management Information System, the countywide database that tracks street contacts with homeless people and housing placements

Good employers think in terms of "If I worked here, what would I want?" Forcing employees to stand rather than sit in chairs is basically the polar opposite of this approach and indicative of an employer who should be treated with contempt.

There's a pretty direct line between "When you’re a star, they let you do it. You can do anything" and this kind of MNF banter. The rot is everywhere in our society but it's a lot worse in some places than others. (screenshot from sports.yahoo.com/articles/al-...)
Then, Michaels cited the familiar football phrase that "winning is the best deodorant," before Herbstreit predicted that Browns fans would eventually embrace Watson after previously booing him in the preseason.

"You want the fans to get behind you, and that goes for pretty much any market," Herbstreit said. "This is an extreme case because of what you laid out with Deshaun Watson, but if you convert on third downs, you hit passes, you lead this team to victories, those boos turn into cheers."

The "antisemitism isn't systemic" argument falls apart when you grasp the security costs borne by American Jews in just about every aspect of communal life. Nazis walking into synagogues with AR-15s are animated by the same Great Replacement Theory espoused by our Christian nationalist electeds.

“No they really believe it” is a way better heuristic for understanding political actors than “they are on the take” 9 times out of 10. Sometimes beliefs are downstream of materialism and political economy. But these relationships are more complicated than “bribes”
