THREAD. I am so glad to celebrate the 1-year anniversary of the publication of Copaganda. It's more relevant than ever. We must understand how people are brought along to support the most monstrous and repressive institutions. (And we should have some fun and make some jokes while doing it!)

Why the hell can’t you put the actual names of things in your headlines? When did this mystery-to-be-clicked-through bullshit become the dominant form of local journalism? It’s fucking bullshit, bro. Knock it off with this clickbait

This is an article about Cracker Barrel. I had to click on the link to find out, now you don’t have to. Jesus Christ.

The only A.I. I support is Abolish ICE.

Lunch Meat, the gross man

Instant classic character

Yeah! Fuck those Epstein wannabe Cavalier fucks!

Rent-seeking technocrats, not content with destroying social trust and eliminating whole categories of gainful employment, are now gamifying war and death. These people belong in prison, not in your wallet

Happy 420 day everyone

I've always loved this combo of southwest/cyberpunk 2077/pansexual flag colors, and giving everyone shirts to wear to maintain the aesthetic is some truly galaxy brained stuff

We may have ever tried to go back to the old software for a minute. And on top of this we’re telling everyone trying to order from us that we’re closed on 4/20, despite the crazy sales flyer they were emailed

I don’t remember much else about the 4/20 sale. We probably just spent most of the day packing huge orders for obvious resellers. I remember a really nice person who worked in order fulfillment cried due to the stress.

It didn’t help that the boss’ friends fucked with inventory by just taking shit whenever they wanted, so we were constantly having to offer alternate items to customers because the boss’ friends treated our workplace like a playground. I quit because of those douche bags a few months later

We only took order for 20 minutes that day. And those orders were so plentiful and large that it didn’t matter that we only took 20 minutes worth of orders. Everything collapsed in that 20 minutes.

I worked at a delivery-only dispensary as a dispatch operator in LA for a few months. A day or two before 4/20 the software we used for orders and dispatch wasn’t allowed to legally work with a cannabis operation so on 4/20, the biggest goddamn sales day all year, we had to learn new software 🧵

I’ll never forgive Baby Yoda. He had the opportunity to heal the whole world but then he said “Grogu.” It’s been down hill ever since.

That sounds like a good reason to have a bias towards an album

This is about me resisting the pull of FOMO as Phish plays the Sphere for two more weekends

I’m gonna vote for: everyone will get very annoying

Yeah, I can’t ever say I’ve disliked hearing The Strokes, they’re very appealing sonically. I wouldn’t be mad if someone put them on during a car ride

Any Texas Gooseheads in the house? Austin/Dallas shows?

And I’m seeing Goose next weekend for two nights so that should also satiate my need for jamming

And the article that came out this week about the MSG guy surveilling a trans basketball fan is a good reminder that not supporting monsters is what is require, no matter how cool those visuals are. I’m talking to myself at this point. Convincing myself that FOMO is morally correct here.

I got to see Night 1 of Phish at the Sphere in 2024 and Night 3, which was on 4/20 and they played “Fuego” and it was the happiest I’ve ever been. That 16k screen gave me weird dreams for a month and the audio in that room is incredible. I’ve reached the mountain. I’m satiated.

My internal battle:
“Fuck, that footage from Phish playing the Sphere is so cool! I bet I could sneak away for a day or two and go into debt to see God! But MSG and Ticketmaster are fucking monsters…but those fucking visuals…but I went in 2024 so I’m good…but it looks way cooler this time…fuck MSG

Yeah, I concede my battle at calling The Strokes unoriginal hipster nostalgia and wishing they were Television. They have more than earned my respect, even if they do just make me want to listen to Television.

Beans rating: bland, no terrible taste but doesn’t really taste like anything. The cheese and the tortilla are doing all the heavy lifting. If these were 99 cents I’d be fine with it

Taco Cabana is losing their damn minds charging close to $2 for the tiniest bean & cheese taco. And it’s a gamble if the beans will be any good. And I’m the dumbass who keeps buying it.

“Parker! Bring me wallets of Spider-Man!”
