I'm All Lost In... the 3 things I'm obsessing about THIS week.
09.08.2025 18:19 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Interesting quirk in this this essay about people staying at home more. Vibrant, walkable neighborhoods (where, presumably, people can & do go out more) are prohibitively expensive to most Americans, but simultaneously it's the wealthiest who stay in more. www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...

Harrell my want to tie Wilson to Sawant (conservatives' only tiresome play these days), but back in 2019, Sawant's camp itself ID'd Wilson as a dreaded "liberal" who was undermining Sawant's Socialist agenda. sccinsight.com/2019/01/07/s.... @wilsonforseattle.bsky.social

03.08.2025 04:31 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0It's a drag that despite Morrissey's right-wing credentials these days, he and the Smiths still get lots and lots of play in shops and bars and coffee houses. I hear his voice at least once a day. It's a bummer.

The landlord expect[s] to buy his way in.That doesnβt happen. Guthrieβs landlord was Fred Trump, Donald's father. Guthrie wrote a song, βOld Man Trump,β denouncing him for segregation.

13.07.2025 15:15 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0This piece spins Bryan's populism as a potential antidote for today's Ds. The flip is: Bryan, as evidenced by the Scopes trial, was also reactionary and parochial. Like today, there is a lot of that provincial machismo on the Bernie bro left. Be careful out there. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/10/o...

06.07.2025 16:55 β π 4 π 0 π¬ 1 π 0Can someone in the legacy media explain what the purpose of "viewed as" is in this headline. The character Shylock was anti-Semitic and the term has always been anti-Semitic.
Is WaPo suggesting there is a different way to "view" it? Are they blind to anti-Semitism? Or sucking up to Trump?
As they're recounting Emma Raducanu's story in front of gazillions of Wimbledon TV viewers, why do they leave out the that startling fact that she was the victim of a dangerous stalker? @wimbledonltc.bsky.social
