A real gem. Take a look at “The Studio” on Apple TV. 10/10. I’ll probably rewatch and I never do that.

Hear hear!

This is a major step. The last time anything resembling a national strike happened in 1946. Every journey starts with a first step.

I know people want more, but don’t let perfection be the enemy of the good. This is a good thing! For the power of the people, for worker solidarity, to honor these poor murdered people…

We just need to build momentum.

Oh man, a great hack is to microwave your garlic for about 5 seconds and the peel comes right off.

And The Music Man just announced this will be a monthly service to make stonk go up.

“The market will bear the cost”

We’ve done it before (violating sovereignty). Kind of a lot. Oh man…I hate this list. Looking at it all (AI generated) at once is a big oof. Several are joint operations.

Me, looking up what fedposting is…lol. Ben Jordan did a great video on that or something similar. Quickly becoming my favorite YouTuber.

You make a good point; protest, write representatives, all good things. Vote in the midterms (assuming we have them).

All that said, it doesn’t make what I said untrue. Post 2nd amendment stuff if it’s cathartic, but think it through.

I’m shook by how powerless I feel and guns don’t help the situation. But that feeling of helplessness is a feature of the fascism playbook.

As a gun owner, I agree with this. Open fire on ICE…see how that goes. You won’t win. You might kill one, but they will CERTAINLY kill your back. Isn’t it odd that in the most armed county on earth, no ICE officers have been shot in the line of duty (check me there, but I’m not familiar with one)?

Seems like most people are focused on the gun thing here. You already said it; what civil solution do we have?

That’s right! Now someone pivot that data and see if the Venn diagram is actually just a circle.

No idea what I think about this. It’s terrible as a concept. It’s dated 25 November. Has anything happened with it since?

It’s so sickening it almost seems like a twisted fan fiction.

Faraday bag all electronic items; phone, smartwatch; hell, I’d even bag my car keys. Cover your face, especially the eye area. Make your voice heard, but don’t be a data point.

The Devil in the White City

A split third person narrative; One describes the architects that built the 1894 world fair in Chicago, and another that follows the escapades of one of history’s most notorious serial killers, HH Holmes, that prayed on the women that went to the fair.

One of my favorite books I’ve ever read.
