Oh GOODY, an evil old convicted monopolist will continue dolling out pennies when he feels like it while every media entity kisses his ass, SO much better than democracy

This will be followed by similar drops in trucking and retail sales, with the inevitability of falling dominos. Triple-digit tariffs amount to an embargo. Whatever hasty policy reversals we get from this administration of fascist fuckups, it’s hard to see how this wave of scarcity could be avoided.

There is something profoundly perverse in this award going to a photograph taken for the NYTimes, which has done more than any media outlet in the world to enable US-backed Israeli massacres and dismemberment of children in Gaza.

People! In two weeks I’m doing a talk on the oligarchs for Tacoma DSA! Learn rich details on our ruling class bastards and connect with people to actually help do something instead of sitting alone in fear. Gonna be a blast! See you there

It’s a sad day for good ol’ professor Larson, as the college is tearing down the building and putting us all around campus. Had a good 13 years in this office, had a lot of great students come through, wrote a couple good books here. I will always remember this place. My little monk cell.
