It’s getting real for Home Depot. The flash mob is only the warm up, the nationwide boycott hits on November 27th.

Listen:
you must keep up with the news
that unfortunate soul
in Washington state
who contracted avian influenza
did not contract H5N1
but H5N5,
and though it is important
to recognize the difference
this is not a difference
that should make you feel any better.

This is a really remarkable video essay on contemporary film and the theories of Laura Marks. It's making me think about movies in a new way.

Gov. Josh Green said so far no damage has been recorded as tsunami waves reached Oahu, Hawaii's most populous island, but it will take hours of observation before authorities can determine whether the event has passed.

Hawaii has downgraded their tsunami warnings to advisories.

When a network lays off one of America’s greatest satirists, it’s not because he failed. It’s because he succeeded too loudly.

The story about Colbert being cancelled because…. Trump doesn’t like him, should be a warning shot to everyone. The oligarchy has the power… they will use their money to silence you.

This is what I’m so worried about
I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

With ICE's *enormous* new budget and its ability to hire *many* more agents, the United States is about to enter an era of brutal domestic terrorism that we've never seen before.
