It is fascinating to me how every conversation about cycling invites dozens of comments like this. It’s true that some cyclists are rude! It’s also true that this is not relevant to whether traffic laws should be changed

there’s a style of reporting that’s basically like “the left hasn’t been duped by the transparently bad faith framing of the right, but I, the reporter, very much have.”

i do not think the mainstream press is equipped or capable of covering ideological white nationalists and eugenicists as such, or even capable of noting that this is what they are. it is related to the wide belief that racism is simply a matter of manners.

Most clarifying era in politics in America as anything I can recall because it’s so simple:

You’re either for this or against. Pick a side.

I hate this genre of post, and so I am sorry, but it does fill me with a sort of helpless rage that we're making hay over asylum seekers being sent to torture prison based on [gasp] a PAPERWORK ERROR when the horror is that we're doing that at all

Back to the Future poster by Drew Struzan.

Drew Struzan poster for The Goonies.

Word that the great Drew Struzan, who painted more iconic movie posters in the 1980s & 90s than you can imagine, has entered the final stages of Alzheimers. His wife asked that everyone thinks of him and his work and I'm certainly glad to do so. What a talent.

In 2016 I had a client who lived with his sister and his niece, a 16-year-old citizen. One day, two men came by wearing "POLICE" vests. They showed her a picture of a guy and said "this man is impersonating your uncle, can you call him to come home so we can clear this up?"

She did. They were ICE.

What Happens to the Free Speech Warriors? Pundits and activists have targeted the campus left for years. Now we're reaping what they sowed.

I wrote about the free speech advocates who spent the last decade pearl clutching about the campus left while (intentionally or unintentionally) manufacturing consent for the right-wing assault on free expression.
