Elon Musk is the biggest singular personal threat facing humanity right now. Every billionaire is a policy failure and a moral failure. Levels of wealth like that are genuine existential threats to the rest of us and should be treated as such. Taxes should prevent anyone from amassing a $billion.

Mike Patton of Faith No More told me I was evil and that he’d fire me if he could. (I was doing social media for an outdoor music festival.)
I asked this before over at The Old Place and the answers delighted me. So again:
Who is an artist you admire who you suspect would not like you if they met you personally?
I think Peter Dinklage is fantastic. I would absolutely get on his last nerve. He'd be looking for the door while we spoke.

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

One thing I’ve enjoyed about the No Kings protests is how personal everyone’s signs are. I’ve seen Arrested Development in-jokes, NIN lyrics, tons of movie and show and book and sports references that the person holding the sign clearly loves.

The reason gullible people believe all protesters are paid is because they can't conceive of anyone giving a shit about anyone other than themselves.

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society
What he’s railing against is a profound shift in culture, status… He’s obsessed with the idea that America is controlled by a leftist “ruling elite” - but “elite” isn’t defined socio-economically or by political power, it means something like: Getting to define “real America” and who gets to belong.
