from the perspective of someone who might want to be president, the best time to run for the white house is now, not later. so if AOC is thinking about it — if the white house is her ambition — then her best bet is to throw her hat in the ring
You Know What? Maybe the Time Is Right for an AOC Presidential Bid
She’s only 36, and there’s a good argument that she should run for Senate and bide her time. But she also could be a formidable White House candidate.

Jaywalking in the United States is a made up "crime" that was literally a psyop campaign....
funded by automakers
because their cars were killing pedestrians
So they turned it back around on the victims. "Jay" was a negative slang at the time for someone who was a gullible rural person.

I'm not especially opposed to driverless cabs, but I'm fucked if I'm giving up my ancestral British right to cross the road anywhere if it's safe for me to do so. "Jaywalking" isn't a thing or a crime here, techbros, so your magic cars will have to learn to deal with that.
Politics London discussing driverless taxis casually referring to “jaywalking pedestrians”.
Jaywalking is not a thing in UK law.
Transport for London and Government had better not be asleep at the wheel on this.

If you want to fight fascism, you must practice disability justice.
If you’re claiming to be on the left but believe disabled people are “expendable”, you’re aligning with fascists.
If you are against tyranny but refer to people like me as “a drain”, you’re carrying water for the Nazis.

Every episode of Star Trek (any series) has a TTP (Time To Penetration), the length of time before somebody says a version the word “penetrate.” Watch for it.

Rand’s works are a perfect belief system for overconfident narcissistic sociopaths, ie every human in the developmental stage from 15-25.
AYN RAND: it is Rational and in fact Noble to care only for one's self because who knows if anyone else is even Real with an inner life like you, plus you're the Main Guy so your happiness is like the whole world is happy
NARCISSISTIC SOCIOPATHS: wow what an interesting and totally New belief system

Much of my youth revolved around the website ZineLibrary. It went down around Occupy in a massive loss for a movement whose ideas and knowledge mostly doesn't circulate online but in person.

I bought my first guitar in 1996 from my pal Alex Kolassa. It was an Asbury, a made-in-Japan Stratocaster clone. I think I gave him $100 for the guitar and a Peavey practice amp. In 2010 during a big cleanout I donated it to a kids music program, then in 2014 I found it again at a local music store.

Studying psychology in the US has gotta be wild. Turns out the people being repressed are depressed. The people being brutalized are traumatized. No you cannot remove the cause of this.
