The two things that I think REALLY separate Millennials and Gen X, are

1. Gen X was born into a declining world - that's what undergirds their stereotypical cynicism. But Millennials were came of age during an upswing. Only to have every good thing systemically taken away from them.

I have the #1 post on a subreddit today. Aren't I special?

This image from 1588 shows a tree with big bound books grewing instead of fruits. This tree starts in a house organ that is played from a well-dressed woman and a man. The image of part of. abook praising the art of making books, you may find it here if you fancy: http://diglib.hab.de/drucke/uh-20/start.htm

Back in 1588, everyone still knew that book trees grow better when there's music around, and when you speak to them. Attention and house organ music were the key.

“…the version of McCarthyism we offer our students should restore the powerful and inspiring stories of the activists and organizations who were its victims.”

This is real and is still that way.

Seized Art, Eavesdropping Guards: Parents Describe a Clampdown at Dilley Detention Center as Kids Shared Their Stories Detainees told ProPublica that art supplies have been removed in room searches, immigrants have lost access to Gmail and staff hover within earshot during video calls.

Dilley detainees said art supplies have been removed in room searches, immigrants have lost access to Gmail and staff hover within earshot during video calls.

The Trump administration and private prison operator CoreCivic disputed detainees’ claims.

It’s insane this is legal. People around Trump are profiting off war and death. I’m introducing legislation ASAP to ban this.

“Sappo,” the long-running topper to E.C. Segar’s “Thimble Theatre,” first appeared 100 years ago, on February 28, 1926. This was prior to Popeye’s arrival in the strip in January 1929. (Its debut even featured a great flop!)

This is disgusting. Rationalizing the bombing of a school that reportedly killed 108 girls.

But since she asked,

"Currently, 161 public schools operate on military installations across the United States."

While we sit around to find out how bad exactly it all is, a bit of cheer: the best baguette of Paris competition was won by a Sri Lankan who appears to have started as a dish washer in restaurants and eventually trained as a Boulanger.

From immediate oversight, to forcing a vote on a War Powers Resolution, to restricting or cutting off funding for unauthorized hostilities, our Members of Congress must use every lever in their toolbox to put an immediate stop to this war.

Make sure your elected officials hear from you.

I have downloaded the app.

The president didn't bother to make the case for war in a marathon State of the Union address and then he fucked off to his sweaty gilded country club so he could literally phone in an unconstitutional war.

Every single Democrat needs to be screaming about this at full volume.
