Journalists. Please. Too many of you are going to call this a tax “on Colombia”. It’s a tax on Americans. All Americans who ever drink coffee. Or buy cut flowers. A tax. On Americans.

“oh, you think conservative men are terrified of big cities? common mistake. we are actually all just self-taught jason bournes.”

tweet from @wayne: Thave a theory that men are more sensitive to this than women, which might explain why some conservative men appear to liberals to be more, "afraid" of big cities. I think what's happening is that these are men who are especially attuned to implicit threats of violence and who are correctly picking it up everywhere they go in urban areas.

When my wife and I are out in a city I will often clock a guy doing this and then it will distract me for as long as he is present in my environment and my wife can sometimes get kind of annoyed because I seem distracted and she's not sure why.

reply from @belogical (lol): Be Logical

It goes further than this. In restaurants, I can't sit with my back to the door, and I can't sit in the middle of the restaurant, it makes me anxious as hell. I'm devising escape strategies (does the table flip, can we get to the kitchen). I have never been in a gun fight, l've just always been this way.
Also when I'm away from home on business, I'm thinking about the best way to get back home to my wife and child should society collapse. I think these are natural masculine instincts.

Technically, he /tried/ to tell a bunch of journalists, but only ProPublica followed up on the story, which tells you everything about how the mainstream media treats right-wing terrorism with editorial kid gloves.

Whenever critics say that abolishing the police will only lead to more private security that are even further shielded from public scrutiny, I’m reminded that police already take millions from Big Oil, tech giants, and a number of multinational corporations

That a dude with a couple cameras and a plate of appetizers can make something worth $82.5 million and a media company looks at that and goes "couldn't we make even more money if we had AI do it?" tells you exactly how stupid these people are

It's very funny when NPR is interviewing an expert in something and it all feels fairly normal and evenhanded and then at the end they're like "and that was Christopher Halliburton from the Center for Exploding Venezuela"

1. On day 1 of prefiling, Republicans have filed 32 anti-trans bills in the state of Texas. The bills target transgender people with bounties, could shut down Pride parades, ban gender marker changes, and force mass-scale chromosome testing. Subscribe to support my journalism.

Police have stormed the Palestine Congress in Berlin and cut the power. Only one person got to finish their speech. Dr. Ghasan Abu Sitta was held at the airport and kept away. The mask is fully off; this is pure authoritarianism from Germany.
