Public Enemy,

A Martin Skreli mention always makes me think about the second greatest voir dire ever. harpers.org/archive/2017...

Alt text: A man in camouflage clothing and a face covering sits inside a gray Jeep, pointing a weapon out of the open driver-side window. The gun is aimed directly at the camera. The man wears gloves and a dark cap, and his eyes are visible above the mask. The vehicle’s door and side mirror are wet with raindrops.

ICE is a hostile occupying force that is a danger to everyone.

He's less pro-trans than the governor of Kentucky.

I do not get why anyone is obsessed with this useless fuck.

Kind of feels like feds occupying our city for a month, killing one person and shooting another while attacking neighborhoods with chemical weapons and kidnapping hundreds of people already counts as a civil war whether the Guard arrives or not, but what do we know?

Go on home, Texas soldiers, go on home. Have you got no bloody homes of your own?

You mean the song from CB4? I think it locash.

I was working in a rural area of Michigan one summer. A local guy kept talking about "The City." I was floored when I found out he was really worried about going to a mall in a suburb of Saginaw. He was equally floored when I told him I worked at that mall in high school.

In These Times.

Took a quick read through press releases for the last two years, I think the only other individuals Gov. Whitmer has deemed worthy of multiple day flag lowering are Pope Francis and Queen Elizabeth. Mass shootings get multiple days. Military, fire, and police killed on duty get 1.

Gotta be honest and say that it once again feels stressful that all the evil people are doing evil things and making life worse for everyone

I was also a stock room. Now I'm an office. In between, I was a kitchen.

Trump pictured heading to play golf after baseless viral death speculation False rumors that President Donald Trump had died went viral across social media.

LIVENGOOD: By not being dead, Trump once again wins the expectations game.

Tom Waits in "The Outsiders"

Increasingly of the mind that the "distraction" rhetoric comes from a deeply-rooted belief that what we're witnessing is merely a form of dictatorial cosplay.

The problem which is apparently invisible for some reason is that even assuming this were true, laughing it off is unacceptable.

Those pants aren't going to shit themselves.

I meant it more as a "one of us" solidarity thing - but I'll take what I can get.

I hope it's a rerun.

Where's Rhys?

I found out he was an attorney just a couple months ago when I saw him on zoom. I immediately texted Emmons.

Unknown, but it's not awesome. These are terrible.

They put on a great show, felt like a teenager again. Though Royal Oak Music Theater kind of sucks.

We moved from Baltimore back to Michigan the year he went from the Orioles to the Tigers. That made him my favorite player, replacing Cal Ripken. I always tried to bat like him in the neighborhood games - it didn't work.

GUEST COLUMN: We need evolution, not revolution. Let’s find common ground with King George and work together to keep Fort Michilimackinac open.

By Colonial Governor G.E. Whitmer.

No, he's always out there henching. It's appropriate.

Going to see @suicidemachines.bsky.social on Sunday. I haven't seen them since 2006 in Marquette and they broke up and didn't play another show for years afterwards. So, good luck everybody.

The volume of stupidity was greater then because they felt they had to justify the war to the public, so they had Colin Powell and everyone else out there lying all the time. They don't feel the need to justify this or any action they take anymore, so the volume of stupidity is lower.

There are no distractions. It's all bad. Systematically stripping trans people of their rights, guys in balaclavas shoving any brown person with a tattoo into a ummarked vans, ending healthcare for millions. It's all in service of fascism and technofeudalism. It's all one thing. That's the point.

I work in the old GM headquarters building. There had to be a pneumatic tube system. One day I'll find it.

At the rally in Lansing there was street preacher asking, "Are you teaching your kids to follow Jesus, or are you teaching them to go against the government?" I didn't want to give away any spoilers for the book he was holding, but he is not going to like what the government does to his boy.
