Y'know that Guardian article which cited an anonymous friend of Tyler Robinson claiming he was the only "leftist" in his family?
It just got updated after the "verified source" decided he couldn't remember his "relationship" with the accused shooter well enough to be quoted

Hi @ezrakleinbot.bsky.social, we're friendly, we've been on each other's shows. We both agree Kirk's murder is horrific. Q: was Kirk "practicing politics in exactly the right way" when he called for me to be deported because he didn't like my Covid views on MSNBC?

Það segir svo mikið um Snorra Másson, og með hverjum hann samsamar sig, að ÞETTA mál sé það sem ógni málfrelsinu skv. honum. Ekki þegar almennir borgarar eru drepnir í BNA, þegar blaðamenn eru drepnir á Gaza, eða þegar þingmenn Demókrata eru skotnir heima hjá sér.

Charlie Kirk called me a ‘lunatic’ and a ‘prostitute’ and demanded I be deported.
Nothing, *nothing*, justifies killing him, or robbing his kids of their dad.
We don’t know the identity or motive of the shooter but murder can *never* be the response to political disagreements.

Charlie Kirk spent his life‘s work and all of his energy and time targeting out-groups while arguing for a world in which gun massacres would be easy to enact, plentiful, and inevitable, and he became famous and wealthy doing it, and we’re now not supposed to mention that because it’s not polite.

When a person tries to defend a Genocide by saying that what’s going on is actually more an ethnic cleansing, it reminds me a lot of the people that try to defend a pedophile by saying that “technically” they are a “hebephile”.

If I were an ICE agent, I’d be embarrassed as hell that they were filing assault charges against mild mannered politicians in their 50s.
Just how fucking soft are these little man babies? They seem like they’d burst into tears at the sound of a slammed door.

Making music — even if you aren’t especially good at it — can still be good for you.
Music has the power to soothe the mind, promote brain health and bring people closer together, research has shown.

A couple of times in my career, I've run into wealthy people that either want to buy my guitar or make me play in a setting or way that crosses my boundaries.
When I've refused and say my guitar is not for sale or the idea is not appropriate for me, they smugly answer: "Everything has a price."
WTF?

True story:
When J.K. Rowling visited Iceland on her yacht, she stopped by Ísafjörður, a beautiful seaside town in the West fjords. And instead of trying the cuisine of their legendary local restaurants, she ordered takeout from Reykjavik by helicopter.
That was before her anti-trans arc.

There’s an infinite number of pairs of numbers that have both these qualities:
A: Not “Zero sum”
B: One is very high and the other one is negative.
People that justify capitalist exploitation by saying the economy isn’t a “zero-sum game” are full of shit. Whether they are evil or dumb is a question

Troubadour luck is getting bad pollen allergy, visiting a pharmacy to get allergy pills, the pharmacist warning you about “drowsiness”, taking a pill, falling asleep on the train and waking up an hour after your destination, but it’s ok because it’s Deutsche Bahn and the train was 90 mins late. :-)

Ok… Ég er ekki þekktur fyrir að vera einhver hraðskreiður Göngu-Hrólfur. En kommon!

Nei nú hringi ég í Jens!
