Decorum is fascism’s ally

How can blue states fight back against Trump? With fiscal disobedience | Eric Reinhart By holding back federal tax revenues, Democratic governors can turn a one-sided assault into a constitutional showdown

In The Guardian today, I outline a strategy: “fiscal disobedience” as one part of an “anti-fascist federalism.”

Spirit Halloween is gonna have a banner year, and it has antifa to thank. #antifa #resistanceeconomy

It’s all about alienation.

Back in the day it was customary to release an Extended Dance Remix as a 12” single. (For disco anyway. Punks kept squeezing a dozen blazing fast songs onto 7” of 33rpm vinyl)

One of the only welcome things about this current period in the U.S. is that the "this is not who WE are" stuff might finally be over.

Air ICE

aaand we are officially in the hide-your-neighbors stage

Less cowbell.

Presidents? SCOTUS gives them immunity.

Corporations? SCOTUS makes it easier for them to pollute.

Billionaires? SCOTUS says they can buy elections.

But if you look Latino, speak Spanish, or work at a low wage job, SCOTUS says you can be abducted by masked agents.

The legacy of the Roberts court.

Thanks, done!

Is there a mechanism for scholarship bequest? Can people with money but no time find a scholarship for someone with time but no money?

I’m already sick of the smug “there is no ‘domestic terror’ designation under US law.”
I mean, true, but ask yourself why? Domestic terrorism definitely exists, but it is almost always perpetrated by right wing white people, so it has been given a pass.

A protester outside an ICE detention facility marches through clouds of irritant gas carrying American flags. A sign lying on the pavement by his feet reads “EVERY ICE AGENT WILL BE HELD TO ACCOUNT.”

I hope some newspapers use a crop where you can easily read the sign.

It was very telling that for three days, none of the major TV anchors would have me on air one-on-one to talk about my firing from the Washington Post over Charlie Kirk.

The first offers were from
Black media, independent media, Substackers, and podcasters.

“I trust my immune system - I don’t need a vaccine.”

I trust my immune system too, but it thinks pollen and cardamom are trying to kill me, so I’ll be giving it some directions, okay?

Social injustice warrior who said shootings are the cost of liberty, dead of irony at 31.

If you’ve ever called the (armed) police on someone committing a crime, or voted to increase police funding—-

then yes, you believe in the threat of lethal violence to deal with others.

Fun fact, despite what the lower 48 may think, only about 2.6% of Alaskan workers are in the oil & gas sector, per state labor stats. Only “Information” and “Wholesale” sectors have fewer. Local, state, and federal government employees outnumber oil & has 10:1. Oil is dead

I feel like maybe the Hyundai raid stemmed from MAGA marketing department’s realization that their first pick for scapegoat ethnic group isn’t working out

Assess low, expect better seems reasonable about now

That thing you promote as free from/of ideology, probably *is* ideology

It's so much easier when someone is both incompetent and an asshole bc when someone is incompetent but a nice person I can't help but let their incompetence color my otherwise favorable opinion of them lmao

Seems like a venture that will fail. The point of AI is ultimately to not hire anyone.
