My blink 182 cycle

11-17: blink 182 rules

18-28: how embarrassing. I can't believe I used to listen to this

29-31: I mean, I'm not a fan anymore, but some of these songs are good

32- : blink 182 rules
my only notes to people under 30: your 30s aren't for ditching fandom, they're for re-evaluating all the "cringe" stuff you liked as a teenager through the lens of someone who can appreciate it fully, going, "that owned, actually," and becoming even more unhinged about it. please look forward to it.

Potential homebuyers canceled more than 40,000 purchase agreements in December. That's 16.3% of all homes that went under contract, the highest rate since Redfin started tracking it in 2017.

Patty Murray: (202) 224-2621
Maria Cantwell: (202) 224-3441
I just called and left voice mail messages for Patty Murray and Maria Cantwell to encourage them to vote no on DHS funding. It took less than 5 minutes. I didn’t need a script. Make your voice heard.

Honestly I think the focus on that 7 is not even helpful, because what happened is that Dem leadership refused to push any position and just kind of shrugged, letting this happen. Those 7 votes belong to all Dems, not just those 7
Two days ago, 7 democrats voted to fund that execution

the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?
Trump says a lot of deranged shit, but, per this Reuters article — and the threats of invoking the Insurrection Act in Minnesota this morning — he is very clearly exploring how to cancel the midterms.

Harrell's deputy mayor and direct city employee literally ran his corporate PAC, as depicted. No violation according to Wayne...but he fines Wilson for...her grandparents helping out with childcare during the campaign. This is literally insane.

there is simply no other conclusion than that mayors must be rich
and THEN it's fine if they spend months of their terms flying first class to international junkets and use the mayor's office to campaign

Mayor Katie Wilson pays small fine for child care help during campaign
The modest fine was reflective of the fact that Wilson and her campaign fully cooperated as the ethics commission looked into an unprecedented issue.

My husband was on the 2 train and a guy started braying about how Renee Good deserved to die and her "lesbian lover" did too. My husband got pissed and said, "You're absolutely disgusting." "Fuck you!" the guy said. "Fuck YOU!" my husband said. The guy left.

See? We just need to talk to each other.

The national media, the ADL, corporate leaders, etc. are not revisiting their decisions about Musk now afaict. Musk is just allowed to be a very public Nazi accelerationist as well as a CSAM publisher without any mainstream scrutiny.
Every week is overwhelming evidence of what we saw with our own eyes, but which our credulous media was afraid to print: the Nazi salute was a Nazi salute
Yesterday Elon Musk retweeted "white solidarity is the only way to survive". In our numb overwhelmed media environment it barely made headlines that the world's richest man endorsed blood-curdling white nationalism. My brief writeup for @religiondispatches.org

Calling someone a "fucking bitch" and denying them medical attention after shooting them sure seems like what someone would do if they wanted to murder them.

Probably not, because you are a normal person.

I try not to say "I can't believe people are still on X" thing because people have different reasons for things that I don't know but "by using this application you may completely incidentally encounter CSAM in a way that you are technically criminally liable for" feels like a big Moment to Consider

There is video of the shooting of a woman by ICE in Minneapolis circulating that shows an ICE agent repeatedly shooting her at point blank range while she tries to drive off. There was no obvious threat to any ICE agent.
