About to launch OnlyFathers where a priest will give a sermon while he mows the lawn shirtless

tbh i dont know what it is either. my music ed / regular teacher friends complain about it though. its some meme for the The Young Folk

its only a matter of time before the “six seven” starts

i think what I'm saying is enshittification has hit corporate pop in a very legible way so the biggest stuff rn is v bland even while tons of weird bangers bubble just underneath

feels like the "why no song of the summer this year?' and the "why did TS's album flop?" questions are related

1. the chaotic political/econ context & all the noise it makes in ppl's lives puts their attn elsewhere
2. weird music is doing fine (Kpop DH), but gulf grows btw it & bland chart toppers

i want to know this

Greta is an honest to god good person in a world that hates good people.

Toxic boyfriend ass republic

one funny part of the new school year is all of the club signs. who leads the ucsd archery club? and how are there signs about it literally every 30 feet

The attack on the synagogue in Manchester and the attack on the mosque in Sussex are completely horrifying. Violence anywhere is terrible of course but it takes a certain tenor when it’s clear that people are being targeted because of their identity.

and criminalizing protest won’t fix it. like ??

the government should not be able to smash into your home and drag you into the street for no reason. it's kind of a core civil right, perhaps THE core civil right.

i gotta say it is disheartening how much the r-slur is coming back in casual conversation

why does this job application ask for a THREE PAGE cover letter with included topics that they want you to address?

this isn't a cover letter any more. this is an essay.

a parasite that feeds on secrets
the texture, the gravel, the fry of your larynx
is stirred into a bubbling vat
and reconstituted into a quivering homunculus
you receive $0.30

Love to my AFM brothers and sisters.

WGA Statement on ABC’s Decision to Pull Jimmy Kimmel Live! The right to speak our minds and to disagree with each other – to disturb, even – is at the very heart of what it means to be a free people. It is not to be denied. Not by violence, not by the abuse of governmental power, nor by acts of corporate cowardice. As a Guild, we stand united in opposition to anyone who uses their power and influence to silence the voices of writers, or anyone who speaks in dissent. If free speech applied only to ideas we like, we needn't have bothered to write it into the Constitution. What we have signed on to – painful as it may be at times – is the freeing agreement to disagree. Shame on those in government who forget this founding truth. As for our employers, our words have made you rich. Silencing us impoverishes the whole world. The WGA stands with Jimmy Kimmel and his writers.

The WGA’s statement on ABC’s decision to pull “Jimmy Kimmel Live!”

I want our young people to know that there is a path forward, that a better world is possible. I don't want them to give up, to become cynical. They deserve to be young and full of optimism. They are owed a world that supports and sustains optimism.

Charlie Kirk, Redeemed: A Political Class Finds Its Lost Cause By ignoring the rhetoric and actions of the Turning Point USA founder, pundits and politicians are sanitizing his legacy.

Gov. Greg Abbott pardons Daniel Perry, veteran who killed police brutality protester in 2020 A Travis County jury sentenced Perry to 25 years in prison last year, prompting Abbott to ask the state parole board to review his case.

I am just going to keep posting that the TX governor recently pardoned a political murderer.

The dude texted "I'm going to shoot protestors", then went and shot a Black Lives Matter protester. He was convicted in a jury trial.

Hard to find a more blatant example of celebrating political violence.

Anyone proposing that an official be allowed to revoke the passport of a citizen for criticizing *this* country would be rightly regarded as batshit insane and deeply hostile to this country's laws and traditions.

Proposing that they can do that if we criticize some *other* country?

Fuck. That.

What they’re doing is refusing to talk about what really matters in this equation: power

Discourses about debate pretend there are fundamental power symmetries between the two positions and the people impacted by them. They ignore the power asymmetry induced by white supremacy. Civility is a cover

i am ashamed of the moan i let out stepping into the air conditioned music building after weeks of sweating in my sweltering apartment

A tweet from the US Department of State with some dominionist bullshit that I don't feel like typing out

Yeah it's great that we're eradicating practices that devalue and demean the Christian faith, that's why my wife can't get a federal grant for the church where she's a pastor without signing a statement that she'll help the cops arrest immigrants and homeless people

When my brain starts working again, it’s over for you bitches

If you’ve ever worried whether art matters. It does.
