My most firmly held political belief is that it should be illegal to refer to wet wipes as "flushable" considering the havoc they wreak on our sewer systems. It is entirely coincidental that Marxist-Leninism is the only way to achieve this.

These are hate symbols. They have been used to represent the genocide of Jews and the lynching of Black people. Displaying them signals to white supremacists that violence is acceptable and that they will be protected if they commit it!
U.S. Coast Guard will no longer classify swastikas, nooses as hate symbols
The military service, which falls under the Department of Homeland Security, has drafted a new policy that classifies such items “potentially divisive.”

There’s so many Trump voter #regret pieces out and leopards ate my face posts. Almost none address what causes these dupes NOT to vote for a candidate who *isn’t* him. An obvious imbecile.
Racism doesn’t explain all of it. Nor does misogyny. No sympathy for this idiocy. Fuckem all forever.

So much good indie in every lane right now.
But Men I Trust is special. No rivals. They leave the studio like, “yo we just made that.”
Oncle Jazz through present. Their music is if all your crushes collided at their warmest point. And you still gotta get the train home.

Follow the leader—Korn is still quite a listen. There are some grooves. Those riffs hit to an impressive degree with full head bop, but with some funk on it. The mix is skrong af. When they were in their bag, they made some heat. Justin, It’s on, freak on a leash. Go 🎧 + 🌳

These negotiations are “should we starve people?
Or let them die and become disabled from disease and treatable illness and lack of health care?
How should we destroy people?”

Writing about Elon Musk’s pay package without leading with this is like profiling John Wayne Gacy’s booming party clown career.
One analytical model shows that, as of November 5th, the dismantling of U.S.A.I.D. has already caused the deaths of 600,000 people, two-thirds of them children. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/jUzNSc
