Iâve seen many people of various political persuasions say that theyâve seen very little or no coverage of the devastation in Asheville. That may be so, but itâs not really an indictment of the media as much as itâs an indication that your media diet in particular is fucked.
Even more bizarre â square dancing in schools was the result of Henry Fordâs white supremacist war with jazz music No, really. qz.com/1153516/amer...
Yes Democrats should stop talking about fringe things like âreproductive rightsâ and âdemocratic valuesâ and instead focus on the real concerns of voters, like how windmills cause cancer and how Hannibal Lecter is a very cool, very real person
I carry a lot of resentment towards online leftists who either lie for clout or are too stupid to realize theyâre wrong and somehow have huge followings.
"Just say it: Immigration is good. We should consider ourselves lucky to have had so much, and we should strive to have more." Thank you, @felipedlh.bsky.socialnewrepublic.com/article/1864...
Kamala Harris apparently believesâwronglyâthat she has no influence on anti-immigrant sentiment in America, because she has effectively capitulated to MAGA messaging.
"Well, Actually" is clichĂŠ, but probably still qualifies
people (on here) yelled at me about this when i said it before but a) you need traffic enforcement and b) speed cameras are vastly preferable to cops.
ââŚwhen speed cameras are doing the ticketing, the proportion of tickets issued to Black and white drivers aligns closely with their respective share of roadway users. With human enforcement, in contrast, police officers stop Black drivers at a rate that far outstrips their presence on the road.â
âDriving while Blackâ: Researchers found that Black drivers make up 70% of police traffic stops on roads where only half the drivers are Black.
To explain, i don't think people realise how LEGIT Kristofferson was. Not just one of the greatest country music singer-songwriters of ANY generation. He also had ZERO time for the poser Trumpy fucks of the genre. He backed up people like Nelson or Sinead O'Connor when they needed friends.
He was just an all round incredible human being on top of his talent. Johnny Cash said Kris was the person he wished he had been. JOHNNY CASH. Because Johnny found goodness late. Kris ALWAYS had it. And FUCK ME could that man write.
"Well, I woke up Sunday mornin' With no way to hold my head that didn't hurt And the beer I had for breakfast wasn't bad So I had one more for dessert Then I fumbled in my closet through my clothes And found my cleanest dirty shirt" Jesus CHRIST. Imagine being able to write that.
