Listening to the first Cars record and I don't think I ever fully appreciated before how it's just banger after banger after banger. It's like a 'greatest hits' record, but it was their debut.

Nobody cares about the victims in the Dallas ICE shooting apparently. The first I've heard about one of them was on CNN today. He's fighting for his life in the hospital --- he was brought to the US when he was 13. He's 33 now. No criminal record.

I just don't know what to say anymore.

Across the world, and especially in the European Union, far-right parties are using the murder of Kirk as a recruitment tool, a rallying cry, and a symbol of everything they claim to be fighting against.

@annamerlan.bsky.social reports:
The global far-right is making Charlie Kirk a martyr
From Germany to South Africa to Japan, ultra-nationalist forces have seized on his death.

So many people I follow watching "All the President's Men" in honor of Redford tonight. I do not know how anyone can watch stuff in which governmental accountability and integrity exist because, man, seeing that kind of thing these days is super depressing to me.

Too bad the GOP effectively criminalized studying how information moves online and news orgs laid off and demonized all the reporters who covered the burgeoning online accelerationist performative death cults. All of that work was somehow "censorship" that needed to be stopped. Now we're here.

i say this about once every six months but that final A Tribe Called Quest record is truly extraordinary. could make a legitimate case that it is their best record, which by default makes it one of the greatest hip-hop albums of all time

condemnations of political violence are well taken but it does feel as if some
prominent political commentators are of the view that violence isn’t a part of the history of American politics and that is very much not true.
