Movie theaters look to be going the way of shopping malls. Abandoned left for the explorer.

Sloppy and Wavy Last night Pete and I saw Wu-Tang Clan at LCA. He drove up from his house in Black Mountain for a summer jaunt week in Michigan. Our history of memory and experiences, sloppy past and heartfelt con…

YouTube video by Democracy Now! Naomi Klein: Jews Must Raise Voices for Palestine, Oppose "False Idol of Zionism"

Tomorrow is the first night of Passover.

And we *still* need an exodus from Zionism.

Now more than ever.

This was last year...

Those trying to understand the tariffs as economic policy are dangerously naive.

No, the tariffs are a tool to collapse our democracy. A means to compel loyalty from every business that will need to petition Trump for relief.

1/ A 🧵 to explain his plan and how we fight back.

Literally just posted the same thing and came to see what others are saying. I have a feeling it’s a general consensus.

@pbsnews.org wish you would replace Jonathan Capehart with Ruth Marcus. Or anyone! Jonathan is fine but not a worthy counterpart to David B.

The @pbsnews.org should keep @ruthmarcus.bsky.social as their permanent Friday journalist. She has the chops to sit across David Brooks. And having a journalist of original thought who takes a bold stand on her principles as she did with WAPO is what PBS should nurture.

Just when you think it can’t get any worse. It’s odd to feel terror and amusement in the same moment. I keep asking, “why am I laughing?”

Oscar-winning Palestinian director is attacked by Israeli settlers and detained by the army Israeli settlers have beaten up one of the Palestinian co-directors of the Oscar-winning documentary film “No Other Land."

Hamdan Ballal must be freed NOW. Pass it on.

I’m not a religious man. Please listen to the words of @defiance13 on the right’s commercialization of religion.

It’s all over now baby blue.

“Civilization” is the word you’ll be hearing more. It’s popping up, eclipsing the word nation, the word democracy.

Many years ago, a woman named Zoe dumped her shitty boyfriend (the kind of guy who writes 'manifestos'), and somehow that led to the downfall of the USA. I think about that a lot.

Virtue Hoarders and the Rejection of Liberalism (w/ Catherine Liu) | The Chris Hedges Report Catherine Liu details how the professional managerial class (PMC) has betrayed workers for seats within the halls of power, all while they wag their fingers at the politically incorrect working class.

“The election was more a repudiation of the Democratic Party than it was an embrace of the right wing”

Beware: we ignore Robert F Kennedy Jr’s candidacy at our peril | Naomi Klein Given the strengths that Kennedy possesses as a candidate, we should expect him to continue to build momentum. Ignoring him is not an option

so here we are. I wrote this when RFK Jr's presidential campaign was being laughed off by the self-styled serious people.

I’ve used Spotify for years and just signed up for YouTube Music. I’m hearing a remarkably noticeable improvement on sound quality of YT being better than Spotify on desktop and mobile app. #spotify #youtubemusic

YouTube video by Joshua Citarella Quinn Slobodian: What is Neoliberalism? | Doomscroll

I think my favorite podcast these days is Doomscroll and this episode is the best yet youtu.be/SiBJeLrIoes?...

Agree. I discovered his world in the fall and keep coming back. This one with Quinn Slobodian was immensely enlightening to connect some dots.

Approve @kendricklamar.bsky.social‘s bell bottoms!

I’m so sorry brother. My heart goes out to you. That’s devastating.

I’ve begun exploring using @theguardian.com as a main news source for global and national news. I’ve migrated from one of the majors. So far, I’ve been surprisingly impressed. I had the impression it was tabloid-ish skewing one way. Doesn’t seem to be the case. Thoughts?

The Empire Self-Destructs We share the pathologies of all dying empires with their mixture of buffoonery, rampant corruption, military fiascos, economic collapse and savage state repression.

A hard rain.

The elite pundits & politicos who made bank off promoting the neoliberalism that created conditions for Trump's rise are now going to make even more money depicting themselves as experts on stopping Trump.

Time is a flat circle. This inane cycle is going to be our whole lives. It's exhausting.

The Left won’t let go of woke

A concept I’ve been wrestling with since November. The division has always been by design, this may be in fact the playbook.

Rubio looks scared.

But they fought anyway.
