Gardens. Libraries. I write about John Steinbeck in my spare time.
- We are deciding right now whether we want to be a country with ethnic cleansing and concentration camps.
- This is another effort that has taken a HUGE amount of local activism, led by community folks who care. It CAN be done. Get involved where you live and push back. www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/i...

- Ok but where is Pritzker?
- The State of Minnesota should create a special task force of prosecutors, à la DOJ J6 task force, to investigates and prosecute Metro Surge related state crimes. I'm sure there are dozens of former DOJ prosecutors who would love to join.

- The technocrats want to destroy the very democracies that not only allowed them to make their billions, but actually subsidized them

- Bezos: this nation has allowed me to have riches beyond belief. Power. Money. Women. Servants. Technology. I should blow up this nation. I’m sure the undemocratic rubble I leave in my wake will give me even more of what I want. This plan has no flaws.
- This plan has no flaws. Dead 😂🤣😭
- I don’t know. Maybe too much money really is a mental disease or defect. I just know I wouldn’t want to be him when Putin or some other warlord comes calling with his hand out and won’t take no for an answer. No more friendly US to seek protection.
- Poison and high storey windows could be in their future
- I love being safe inside of my palatial bunker after destroying society when a knock comes upon the door. Ah must be my men. Coming to thank me no doubt. I'll have to award them an extra ration of broth.

- They are going to miss them when they are gone.
- Why can’t they have some forethought?
- All they do is take. They don’t give back

- Shirley Povich writing in 1962, with the most immaculate burn conceivable of the Redskins awful, vile owner George Preston Marshall, the last NFL owner to insist on an all white roster: "Jim Brown, born ineligible to play for the Redskins, integrated their end zone three times yesterday." RIP WaPo.

- I still think the best idea for progressive donors is to just revive every alt-weekly in the country and staff them with 10 reporters each.

- This is the piece of the puzzle people are zooming past that I think bears repeating. There will be violence. People will be hurt or worse. At scale? No. But even the death of one person just trying to vote should be an unacceptable number. Dismantling ICE immediately stops this from being a concern
- We won't have military in the streets but we'll have gun happy assholes making trouble. The failure of Dem leadership is forcing normal ass taxpayers to contend with the fact there might be violence at their polling place on order from the federal government. It's insane to normalize that sentence.
- MacKenzie Scott should publicly offer to buy Washington Post
- The decimation of the Washington Post is a good reminder that conquerors love to destroy national institutions as a means of controlling the culture, and there are enemies beyond trump and his wannanazis who may be even more dangerous.

- i feel like we've had a good enough sample size for like two decades on whether or not body cameras on cops do anything whatsoever to stop them from killing people. the guy that murdered renee good was filming it on his phone for fun!

- With the new Muppet Show special, Seth Rogen and company finally did the thing every Muppets fan has been asking for forever: They just made The Muppet Show again. My review:
- Protesting is a fundamental right of citizenship. There is nothing wrong or unpatriotic about protesting. These people would not be on the streets if ICE wasn’t attacking their neighbors. So then, being in the streets is literally an active protest.
- And I’ve seen a lot of these posts distinguishing between protest and what’s happening in Minneapolis. The subtext feels to me that they're distinguishing the protests and uprisings of 2020 with what's happening now. "We're not protesting, it's something more noble!"
- it goes without saying but I don't think the 3rd richest person on the planet is destroying the prestige newspaper he bought because of the finances of the newspaper business

- we should proceed with prosecutions with the presumption that the president cannot pardon crimes he ordered to occur while simultaneously advancing court-packing legislation.
- After Nixon was forced to resign, Republicans took the lesson not to stop being corrupt, but to demolish shared reality. After Romney lost with scant minority support, Republicans took the lesson not to stop being racist, but to demolish democracy. Once Trump is gone, what lesson will they take?
- We have to understand that this is an ideology that will destroy anything and everything, including the ability for humans to continue to live on this planet, in defense of the vile myth of white supremacy they rely upon for fortune and identity. That’s what “Republicans are a death cult” means.

- the thing is that Occupy - and i learned this FROM THE PEOPLE WHO ARE CURRENTLY BITCHING AT WILL STANCIL for fuck's sake - started organically, then kicked normie women to the curb and got taken over by semipro agitators with axes to grind
