Our culture has real trouble grasping that we can't bring back what it felt like to see The Prisoner/Ghostbusters/Star Wars the first time by doing them again, because the thing that made them compelling is that they were different. We can only feel that feeling again by making more new things.

Sure, OK, you say rents
are a record-high % of
average wages these days,
which is why it feels
like inflation is killing us,
but what if I told you
[Morpheus meme]
that it is possible
to abolish landlords.

For whom is this information?
I ask, as I scroll through post after post saying shit like, "One time my cousin got hit in the face with a fish at the Pier in Seattle, & that's why I'm partnering with DeutscheBank to starve toddlers in Palestine."

These days they just don't make enough talky ensemble films about how dudes wish they could retire, spend time with family, and maybe do a little fishing.

It is more risky. Being brigaded sucks.

Sometimes, you just have to follow your whimsy and tell people an annoying truth or, worse from their perspective, accurately describe what they've said, or implied, but in an unflattering light.

It works both ways, too: one can quote meanly with the expectation that a block will sunder one from seeing the opinions of whoever drove one to snark.

TIL tikkun olam is when you ensure that DJT, who has openly stated that he wants to tear up the constitution, becomes US president because… um… "Israel" stopping its ethnic cleansing of Gaza would kill the US somehow. OK

A group of conservatives is called a band (pronounced b&). A set of apparatchiks is a flan. A bunch of politicians is a pog, but a pair is a short stack. Judges come in barrows. Liberals get together in a muck.
