We’re excited to not only host bigger, more comfortable book events, teach-ins, art builds, etc, but also open the space up as a meeting spot for community member use free of charge. We know that free, accessible spaces for organizing are hard to come by, & we can't wait to offer this resource.

Butyric acid is a harmless compound that stinks to high hell. Green Peace has used it against whaling ships, dousing the decks to make being on them as unpleasant as possible.

It is so easy apparently to forget that Presidents should, at the very least, sound like sane and rational people.
Here’s the original clip of Ronald Reagan from April 25, 1987, where he delivered a complete and total rebuke against tariffs. Trump's calling Reagan’s words here “FAKE” and “fraudulent.” They’re 100% real. And the original clip is actually far worse for Trump, as much is left out of the ad:

okay. the mayor of my heart.
Donald Trump's pick for Mayor is Andrew Cuomo. That much is clear.
But it's not because that will be good for New Yorkers. He knows it'll be good for him.
