That's my last issue. Like much of legacy media they are struggling to write anything relevant, or even readable, by an adult. Unprepared to deal with shifting historical realities, siloed off, and isolated. Leaning on lessons from the Peloponnesian War because there is no new thought.

I'm sorry to do a whataboutism, but the press can't normalize a fascist cult and then expect me to freak out because some young guy wants to open government subsidized grocery stores. That math there just doesn't compute for me.

I'd be lying if I said I'm not enjoying all the meltdowns.

Jesus this book is tedious. The authors like to explain everything through little made up fables and fictional dialog between anthropomorphized characters. Just skipping page after page of nonsense writing.

What the grift is this bullshit showing up in my mailbox? I would love to know which shit head company sold my mailing address to them. This isn't like some family running a gofundme to pay for a funeral, it's a depraved attempt to cash in.

This book is pretty wild. I don't know much about the Catholic church and didn't know a psychotic priest can just start his own cult and get the pope to bless off on it after the fact. Apparently John Paul and Escriva were on the same sheet as far as the Nazis not being that bad.

With Ivan Ingraham and I.S. Berry at the book launch for Josh Bates' new novel The Baghdad Shuffle. Some former Marine walked right up to Ivan and said, "hey, you chewed my ass in Western Afghanistan in like 2011..."

The trailer failed to arouse my interest. People are saying that the only good thing about it is the NIN soundtrack. I listened to it, and it's okay, but not great.
