Season 53 Episode 4 of Great Performances.

I was wondering if that was the pbs Twelfth Night you were referring to or a different PBS broadcast/production?

It's called standards, professional and otherwise.

Considering all that's going on, this isn't an unreasonable question.

I can't vouch for the reputable, but it does seem to be real. X account that dates back to 2017. People referencing the website on reddit four years ago.

If this is a fraud, it's a fraud that's been around a while.

On that note, how about a 6th generation fighter program β€” without the fighter.

Due to some errors my company ended up with part of a railroad tanker of HFCS that simply had no place to go. Couldn't leave it in the tanker, couldn't store it, so they just poured it onto the floor and squeegeed it into sewer system.

Called the wastewater company up and just ate the fine.

A man threatened to kill me with a katana once. Admittedly he was using a walker and was old as dirt so it wasn't very intimidating, but it did happen.

Idaho is a special place.

I quite like this one. Somewhat eastern european inspired?

It really does seem like the two sides are a rainbow coalition of liberals vs a screaming horde of every hue hell bent on dragging back to superstitious barbarism.

If you all want an actual Most Woke Opinion, it’s that romanticizing backwater patriarchs who only have themselves to blame for their ills is a betrayal of every battered housewife, lynched minority, and queer kid cowering in the closet.

....

I just want Europe to be a coequal pillar of NATO before I die. Is that really so much to ask?!

It's amazing how effective an oppressive outsider declaring diverse groups to be a single type is at creating shared identity.

No. And while I am just as horrified by this as what we've seen in Chicago, I'm made hopeful by how, and how quickly, the community has organized against this.

We are not seeing the acquiescence that spells doom.

What is racializing about 'peril'?

Not arguing or disagreeing, I'm just missing the connotation.

The Plutocrat-Populist Axis Why is this alliance such a robust and enduring power bloc?

I'm imagine anyone who follows me also follows @sjshancoxli.liberalcurrents.com

But this is a really good essay.

"The plutocrat-populist axis is not some shaky coalition of exigency, but a robust and enduring power bloc."

I am not typically one to indulge in, 'You do not hate the press enough.' but there is something deeply and profoundly wrong with the New York Times.

I swear the D&D race/biological essentialism hullabaloo reminds me of nothing so much as the satanic panic around D&D, but leftishly.

THIS IS HUGE! Researchers have just identified a powerful new antibiotic that is 100x STRONGER than existing drugs against deadly superbugs like MRSA and VRE. Hiding in a well-known soil bacterium, pre-methylenomycin C lactone KILLS drug-resistant bacteria WITHOUT triggering resistance.

Yes even that specific flavor of evil you intend to bring up as a gotcha. Especially them actually because allowing exceptions is how you get everyone a cluster of bad actors doesnt like labeled as the exception. No it doesnt care why you want to make death threats. Dont. Its bad for your soul.

All of this is to say, yes its unacceptable at scale to make death threats for any reason what so ever. Even if its the most evil people in the world because the end results of the alternative is not having a healthy platform at all.
