It’s a great moment to remember that in the leadup to this popular uprising, the first major gut-punch was delivered by Budapest Pride. Poetic justice. 🇭🇺🏳️‍🌈

Hamburglars all the way down

But frogger, i am Pagliacci.

The last, most extreme tool in the powerful's toolbelt is war. When all else fails, have the youth kill each other to relieve pressure.

There's A Reason Why Stock Buybacks Used to Be Illegal | U.S. Congressman Sean Casten The Official U.S. Congressional website of Congressman Sean Casten

Points to @casten.house.gov for calling this out:

When workers produce a trillion $ and it all goes to manipulating stock price, that is wage theft. YouTube video by Farming While Beige

Revising my opinion of the key moment when it all started unravelling. Larry Summers pushing to end Glass-Steagall has to take a back seat to Reagan and SEC Chairman John Shad creating Rule 10b-18, allowing stock buybacks.

DDT, lead paint, asbestos, and leaded gas were all used heavily because they were so god damn useful. We still use oil products massively, and it's not exactly because it's not useful.

The US, the UK, Australia, and Canada are all racing each other to see who can collapse the fastest, each going "check this shit out" and then triumphantly slamming its dick in a car door

It’s not a coincidence that the stupidest generation followed the greatest generation.

Where and How Book Censorship Is Impacting Children’s Publishing Right Now.

Publishing imprints for young readers are shuttering thanks to a softening school and library market. That's a result of book censorship, and it impacts you wherever you live.

ICE has been really good at catching wind of these unannounced visits in other cities recently and flying all the captured migrants out beforehand.

But not today. Well done catching them, Congresswoman. We should expect that all of the detention centers are this bad when they aren’t tipped off.

To be fair, his lack of understanding has most likely been a real help in selling the technology. It’s a magic box. It does everything!

It’s been my experience that the less I say, the smarter I sound.

There was never a choice. The entire purpose of conservatism since its inception is to preserve power for the powerful. They will say and do anything to accomplish that goal, including pretending to be pro gay rights.

No shit.

Well, a ton of them voted for him...

I can't help but feel that Ohio was a test bed for all this 20 odd years ago. When I was moved there I was stunned by the lack of impact of how the executive branch just defied Ohio Supreme Court rulings that went against them. Add Ken Blackwell's voter interference and you have the playbook.

I was gone for two weeks and when I came back 20 deadheads and a few toddlers were crashing in our pad. I handed some stranger the keys and packed up and left.

Always bet on stupid.

Part 1 of 4 A Peanuts Comic. Once again Lucy has goaded Charlie Brown into trying to kick a football, and (as usual) she jerks the ball away at the last second, sending Charlie flying into the air. This time however Charlie lands heavily on his neck and is killed instantly.

Part 2 of 4 Lucy kicks Charlie Brown to check if he’s dead. Which he is. Exasperated, and worried she’ll be blamed for his death, Lucy begins to drag Charlie’s now lifeless body towards the creek.

Part 3 of 4 Lucy dumps poor ol’ Charlie Brown into the creek and watches him float away.

Part 4 of 4 Lucy heads back to Charlie Brown’s backyard to pick a fight with Snoopy in order to establish an alibi. Unfortunately a disheveled, crumpled man with a cigar is already there. “Miss, have y’seen this dog? He’s best friends with a BIRD. Can you believe that?” That’s right folks. Columbo is here to avenge Charlie Brown.

Lucy van Pelt has finally gone too far. But she will be brought to justice
