Near total capture of the mass media?

You can keep a journal with a checklist of sightings. Collect them all!

Wow. Juxtaposing the images of tear gas and uniformed thugs with Tom Homan’s nonsense slander on No Kings protests is so conflating and confusing. The administration is a continuous propaganda machine, recycling images and linking them to the words of peaceful protestors. Amazing propaganda.

Simic is one of my favorites.

Let’s not call them “Chicago” ICE agents.

In 1900, 31% of all deaths were children under the age of 5. Today it’s 0.7%. Vaccines, medications, and modern science are the reason why. Trust the science, it’s been proven to work safely and efficiently time and time again.

Not only is he apart of a criminal enterprise, Bove looks like he’s been brought forth from a Manhattan crypt.

The right wing constantly projects their fantasies on the left. They dream of building concentration camps for “other” people and then accuse the left of that very thing. (If you can call Obama “left”…)

The most corrupt and sick administration of my lifetime, to be sure.

So true!

Have you ever heard the version with a Tom Waits arranged accompaniment? Totally different tone. Very melancholy reading and melody behind it. Also wonderful. youtu.be/p_nWYC07b1w?...

Please don’t be a fascist p***k.

That scene is so perfectly executed.

I remember attending politically charged talks and anti-war protests in the early nineties and seeing the various socialist and left “revolutionary” groups accusing each other of being fascists. Did any of the in-fighters move forward or persist? Unlikely.

Thank goodness we’ve addressed cancel culture. Free speech is so free again.

It is. But so is every track on that album.

It’s astonishing how empty these monsters are.

I hear many members of the Nazi Party worked really hard, too!

Turning to AI to solve social emotional learning challenges seems cheap and tawdry.

2/2 The coffee had been sitting on the hot plate all morning, and you could smell the burned odor. If anything, if he had accepted that sludge, it might have had the opposite effect.

Maybe if we had had a $4000M jet….

1/2 I had the same experience when the preschool that was part of our organization had a standard observation. I offered the reviewer a cup of coffee during the visit. He told me he could not accept because we might be trying to influence his report.

It turns out it’s pretty obvious when fascists capture control of the state. Go figure.

And its citizens!

“Terrible things are happening outside. Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes. Families are torn apart. Men, women, and children are separated. Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared.”

Ha!

Probably didn’t realize GREENland was covered in ice. He packed Bermuda shorts and snorkeling gear.

Also, they’re pretty happy. (They consistently rank among the top 3 happiest peoples). So they will probably tell us to eff off with a smile. I would.

And if she were to complain about a missed ss payment, she’s a fraud. Yeah. Sure.
