@wired.com seems to be the Teen Vogue of this administration. This is the first new news subscription I've purchased in quite a while. Grateful for their invaluable and well-sourced reporting.
When people ask how those without access to systems of power might combat the rising fascist tide — think of graffiti. The radical orgs of the 70s knew this. It’s visible, it sticks in the mind, it establishes the presence of the speaker not as an individual but as a representative of the collective
AMC Theater employees, be for real: are your families being held hostage? Is that why you’re trying so aggressively to upsell me at the concession stand?
If you think about it, the richest man on earth stealing the personal data of private citizens and working to illegally dismantle systems that care for the world's poorest and most vulnerable people is also a kind of violence.

During Kendrick's halftime show a man unfurled a Palestinian flag and was chased off stage and eventually tackled and removed by security.
I think an American flag created entirely by black men at the Superbowl is one of the best pieces of art I've seen in my lifetime. I hope it actually killed some folks. And I hope it finally closes the fucking book on the argument that we shouldn't use the flag to fight the God damned fascists.
I was a meeting today and someone made a reference to “mental health and poetry,” and I thought they said “mental health and poultry,” and now I’m wondering what that would include.
I hadn’t heard of Hoopla! I’ll check it out.
What’s the best audiobook app? 📚🎧🤷♂️

The Nazi salute during the inauguration of an American President was the last straw for me. I'm ashamed it took me this long.
Hey it's me, Sonic the Hedgehog!
Today may be scary, but now it's up to us to be the heroes we need to see in our communities.
Our institutions and elected leaders have failed to prevent this moment, but if we work together to stand up for our friends and neighbors we can make a big difference.
Special thanks to @themountaingoats.bsky.social for uploading a high quality version of the music video for this song today specifically. If you haven’t heard it before, you should listen to it. If you have heard it, chant it like a prayer.
If you feel like you're watching the culture disappear into something unrecognizably grotesque and cruel, you're not crazy, you're not alone, and now is not the time to lose your values or your voice.
The families who will be most brutalized by what's to come will need them.
We live in the dumbest timeline imaginable.
It is deeply frustrating and confusing that a city with so few truly pedestrian-friendly spaces would allow the ones they DO have to be degraded in this way. The wear and tear of those vehicles on those surfaces create additional cost burdens for taxpayers too!
It’s giving March 12, 2020 vibes
Thank you Eugene Goodman for saving our Democracy during the Capitol insurrection #January6th
in 2020 I watched a documentary on the 1918 flu pandemic. I'll never forget this quote:
"as soon as the dying stopped, the forgetting began"
"it is in the individual memory... but not in our collective memory. that's the greatest mystery to me—how we could have forgotten anything so horrendous."
smashmouth was so right, the years really do start coming and they don’t stop coming
I was. A long delay in Denver due to weather and another long one in Atlanta due to mechanical issues. Home at last now tho!
Can confirm.
One thing about USPS employees is you will NOT leave that counter without knowing EXACTLY where the link to the customer service survey is on your receipt.
I’m looking to interview a few tribute artists and cover bands for a new thing I’m writing.
Who are your favorites in Middle/East Tennessee and North Georgia? @ me! 👇
Also: can we get Thinking Sweatpants as a merch item in the (eventual) Vibe Check online store? Many people are saying this.
I hate that I have to think this way, but as a piece of corporate synergy, it would make sense for her to make some new Netflix content off of some other Netflix content 🙃
The correct answer is Mr. Brightside, obvs.
