Amazing: “But the Kennedy Center is not the current owner of trumpkennedycenter.org or trumpkennedycenter.com — because back in August, comedy writer Toby Morton registered those two domain names, expecting Trump and his allies to add Trump’s name to the D.C. landmark.”
Comedy Writer Bought ‘Trump Kennedy Center’ Domain Names, Anticipating President Would Rename Institution After Himself: ‘Satire Became Unavoidable’
In August, former 'South Park' writer Toby Morton registered 'TrumpKennedyCenter' domain names, anticipating that Trump would add his name to the D.C. landmark.

On no, the people who don't pay taxes will run away and not pay taxes elsewhere! Won't someone think of the unpaid taxes that the state will lose?
Billionaires are considering cutting or reducing their ties to California by the end of the year because of a proposed ballot measure that could tax the state’s wealthiest residents.
A Wealth Tax Floated in California Has Billionaires Thinking of Leaving
It’s uncertain whether the proposal will reach the statewide ballot in November, but some billionaires like Peter Thiel and Larry Page may be unwilling to take the risk.

Man imagine if California made its wealthy people pay real, fair taxes and used some amount of that money to make art grants for tv shows on the level with the stuff Canada was doing in the 90’s. Everyone in the MPI would have a job again.

One of the right wing's top cultural initiatives was trying to destroy the idea that assholery deserves shame and we'll have to reverse that. "I'm just expressing an opinion I'm entitled to." Ok but you're an asshole. "I'm simply doing a business practice that technically isn't illegal." Ok. Asshole

Per Craig Ferguson: When you're about to say something, ask yourself
1. Does this need to be said
2. Does this need to be said by me
3. Does this need to be said by me right now
It's amazing how asking these will get keep you out of trouble (that is, if you actually have sense to begin with)

I remember the phrase "they can't be allowed to melt back into society" re: the de-Baathification of Iraq after the war there. Like everything about that experience, the attempt was cynical, stupid, and botched. But there really should be a plan about what we do with guys like these in the future.
ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

true. that's bc you've allowed your sense of style to be narrowly defined by fashion brands, instead of thinking about it in terms of cultural history. over the course of the 20th century, many groups have dressed well, even if they didn't conform to fashion trends or bourgeois respectability

The real reason to tax billionaires isn’t to let the government spend their money, it’s to prevent them from buying government and directing how they spend our money
Again we have to ask the question, does this act justify him having a substantial amount of control over society?
Should public health experts be having to humour his "just askin questions" and suck up to him for the slight chance of American healthcare improving because of this?

“Woke” is just being aware of these structures of power and authority and knowing that they are there to justify the abuse of others.
The “war on woke” is those the restoration of these structures for the purposes of abusing others.

This. Is. IMMORAL. it is *GASLIGHTING.* And far worse than garden-variety gaslighting, as the victim has much- reduced chances of ever *catching* you at it. It’s not about *them* feeling any better. It’s about YOU feeling better. Anyone who would do this to a relative has abandoned their humanity. 😡
The comments on this are all about how sweet it is and I feel insane. Using AI to make fake memories of your grandma with dementia and telling her they happened and then filming her reaction

12YO girl signed up to do “stand up comedy” at the talent show. 13YO boy decided to heckle her. Teacher started to tell the boy to leave her alone, but the 12YO comedian said “no, no, let him go, this is the closest he’s ever going to get to having a conversation with a girl.”
