About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages

Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

seems like a non-insignificant percentage of rage against the machine's fanbase are young republican men driving SUVs bopping their head to anti-oil, pro-immigrant songs thinking the lyrics are about how they wish their suburban parents would get off their back

Tom Morello tweets: "Fascinating that all those “don’t tread on me” posers and their AR-15’s are nowhere to be seen and government tyranny is instead being opposed by a guy in an inflatable frog suit."

Someone named Manny replies: "@grok
why do some people say Tom Morello and band mates are RAGE FOR THE MACHINE and not against ?"

in 2011, the president of antifa hired me to give fashion consultancy to the organization. i recommended everyone wear navy suits with tan shoes, dress sneakers, and golf polos with slim chinos. if you arrested everyone today wearing these things, you'd destroy antifa

a doodle of a cat drawing bubbles from powerpuff girls, the text reads: “drawing has been in my life since… forever”

a framed poorly drawn cat, the text reads: “my dream was to have my own style, and be recognized for it!”

handwritten text: “so this is a thank you for making this dream possible”

a bday cake and the text: “next year poorly drawn cats will be 10 years old!!”

By the way, journalists do a huge disservice to their readers with stories that quote cops and right-wing lawmakers upset about judges setting affordable bail without citing the evidence that pretrial detention leads to more crime and causes people to plead guilty to crimes they didn't commit.

Despite this, mainstream media engaged in a years-long panic about “bail reform” that looks a lot like the tobacco industry and fossil fuel industry’s deception. U.S. and Philippines are the only two countries in the world with for-profit bail industry: equalityalec.substack.com/p/the-news-m...

We banned a guy on the Steam forums for repeatedly saying there were “too many women” in our game

So he flipped his positive review to negative

Still totally worth it
