I've been to some countries where people live under military rule or autocracy. And without fail, one of the questions I get when they ask about life in the U.S. is whether it's true that Americans just let homeless people die on the street.
During freezing temperatures in Port Arthur, Texas, a 61-year-old homeless man was found dead in his wheelchair outside a convenience store.
He was wearing a hospital gown and no shoes. Authorities say he had been released from a hospital the previous day.
This is a diseased society.

For a faction that says The Groups are the problem, they sure do love creating groups. More money poured into yet another think tank to tell activists they're messing things up for the Democratic Party. Good luck with this strategy.

Even a bit of occasional light Noticing Things might have kept them on the straight and narrow. Instead, it’s been the golden genius treatment: protecting them from rivals, boosting them relentlessly. A bad thing to do with saints, and this is what happens when you do that for crooks and weirdos.

If you ever wondered “what if we treat favoured politicians like royalty for a decade; shield them from justified criticism and report everything they say as gospel truth, no matter how bullshitty it is”, then wonder no more. Within 18 months of them taking power, you get this.

I think at this point it’s worth remembering that we are not even 2 years in to the first Labour government in 14 years, with nearly 2/3rds of all MPs being from the party of that government. It could have been so easy, but the extent to which they have comprehensively fucked it is just staggering

Anyway, it’s more or less what I expected: everybody knows but they don’t *know*, until suddenly everyone agrees they know and it’s fine to speak openly about it. I’d ask: what else does everyone know, that it wouldn’t be appropriate to speak of now?

my opinion on the Bad Bunny halftime show, and non-English music in general, is that i think a need to “be able to understand the lyrics” displays an embarrassing shallowness of the speaker to appreciate the voice as an instrument & to appreciate music as something other than a lyric delivery system
