it's the Blitz all over again, and the Nazis are always surprised when being terrorized doesn't make people give up

This moment in history provides us with incontrovertible evidence that all the conservatives who claim to be extremely devoted to freedom of speech and the right to bear arms, and opposed to the encroachment of tyranny, are completely and totally full of shit.

It's all white supremacy and greed.

Been playing this album on repeat since I saw the video. This is not going to end unless we actually fight. Not voting, not donating. Fighting.

god i wish Joe Strummer was still alive and healthy

Non-protesting dad just trying to hustle his kids, as young as 6mo, out of the neighborhood. ICE threw a flash-bang INTO HIS car, all 6 kids in the hospital now.

If anyone wondered how things turn against occupying armies there's a case study playing out in front of you.

My position is that after 2008, anyone who tries to sell or trade mortgage-backed securities should be buried in concrete.

I can't describe how bad Minneapolis feels right now. My neighbors are pulling kids out of school. The public schools are offering remote learning until 2/12. We are having conversations in our alleys about how to protect ourselves. It feels like a military occupation with a blockade.

nothing annoys me more than people who want to feel like they have special information going "do you know this CAN work..."

shut up, use water, use water, use water. got something else you want to urge people to use bc you saw a street medic use it once? shut up. use water.

it's like watching the riot cops in Ghorman being sent as bait

Is our elected officials learning? No, no they is not.

You’re in a class war. The wealth and oligarchical classes are hellbent on cementing total control over the government, economy, and culture. It’s a process that’s been going on for forever and is now speeding up.

Politicians won’t save us. The media won’t save us. It’s up to us to save ourselves.

Happy New Year. 11/11

I bought Interstellar Space in a Borders Books when I was 23 and I was…not prepared.

what exactly has to happen before you people will stop using spotify?

Once upon a time US tax brackets topped out at 77% for $1 million or more in annual income. Now it’s 37%?
Imagine that—the simple justice of recognizing that great wealth distorts a democracy & that we all rise when our nation can fully educate & meet the basic needs of every American, young & old.

All I want for Christmas is you to stop using the speaker phone feature in public forever.

His parting coda at the end: “Horror stories are best appreciated by those who are compassionate and empathetic…a paradox, but a true one.” This struck me because it’s how I regard the writer, whom, after all these years and pages, I can’t help but feel like I know.

And the ending story, which is tragic and poignant in a way I’m not sure he’s ever written, capped the book like a closing prayer.

me; an escape hatch at the end of hard days. And it all coalesced to this new collection, which is fantastic. You Like It Darker has some of the best stories since Nightmares & Dreamscapes (1993)…

So, I read them all. 5 collections, 113 stories, and more than two thousand pages. All in time for King’s latest collection, You Like It Darker, released earlier this month.

By the time I got to “I Am the Doorway” I was hooked, and when I finished it — despite drowning in work from my final year of grad school, all at what feels like a very late age — I was thirsty for more.

Earlier this year, perhaps subconsciously thinking of all the time I spent inspecting my dad’s scary books during my formative years, I picked up Night Shift (1978), King’s 1st collection. I’d read plenty of his novels (and some novellas) but never his short stories.

No notes.
