Let us take a knife
And cut the world in two -
And see what worms are eating
At the rind.

Uh-oh, someone showed their hand. So, have farm and hotel workers - and their unions - just learned they have leverage here?

So, there is no mandatory Policies and Procedures and/or Acceptable Use and/or Confidentiality training at onboarding?!?!
Seems like a good FOIA request.

Not buying what you’re selling. GOP has a trifecta. If they can’t get THEIR bills through THEIR own majority, that’s THEIR fault.
If you advance their agenda, that’s YOUR fault.
And to the few who remain swing voters, you’ll have to explain one or the other.
Guess which is an easier sell?

Look at his face. He knows he is about to break a commandment in the service of Mammon. He could choose otherwise, but the earthly power and prestige is just too strong of a siren’s call.
That covenant eyes app polices the wrong seduction.

Clark Street in Andersonville is a no-brainer as a pedestrian street. Ashland runs parallel like 400 feet away! People would love it

“Never heard of it” is his tell that he doesn’t have a good defense for this, and his opponents should hit HARD on this line of attack.

People makes choices.
The left seeks to expand rights and dignity for all human life.
The right seeks to enforce a “natural” hierarchy of lives.
And the punditocracy enjoys big checks and elite social networks to play with words, immune to material consequence.
So, congrats to you, I guess?

How do you define “deep end?”
The Christian Nationalist Right has agency; they have been patiently working toward a post-Constitutional USA since school desegregation.
The fault for the mess we are in rests solely with the bigots and the public intellectuals who give them cover + blamelessness.

Ricky was from another world. No one from earth could - or would! - tune a six-string to CFxxFF and be able to come up with “Dance This Mess Around” and “Rock Lobster.”
I hope he’s sailing the cosmos, catching that breeze of grace

He’s 100% my guitar hero. So, so underrated.
I had the opportunity to see and handle his double-neck Mosrite, and it was maybe the coolest thing I’ve ever experienced!

While Official Access might be shut off, seems to me the *better* stories are from the unofficial sources; government employees, whistleblowers, reporting on the effects of all these destructive policies, etc.
They have the opportunity to build nests outta anti-bird spikes, so to speak.

Immigrants and asylum seekers belong here, because like all good Americans, they dream of the freedom that whatever box(es) you check on a census form, you’re secure in the knowledge you’ll be left the fuck alone by your government.

To remove a compromised mayor. But I don’t think she will.
If the only things standing in the way are “the optics” or “respecting the democratic process”, those concerns fly out the window here.
