Just as a Republican Supreme Court is functionally the same as no Supreme Court and a Republican President is functionally the same as a King

One of my factors in deciding if I'm really attracted to a man is imagining what he'd look like without hair, because if I'm not attracted to him bald or balding, then I'm not really attracted to him. I've met a lot of pretty people who weren't particularly attractive, and everyone's looks will fade

In the wake of Charlie Kirk's death, a TN sheriff had a 61-yr-old man arrested for posting a meme on Facebook, which the sheriff absurdly construed as a threat. It was pretty clearly bullshit but I dug into the case using FB & public records and now it looks even worse. My latest @theintercept.com:

The Absurd Prosecution of a Man Who Posted a Charlie Kirk Meme

Larry Bushart Jr. posted trolling memes on a Facebook thread about a vigil for Kirk. He’s been in a Tennessee jail ever since.

One thing I have learned, moving from two decades living in really diverse cities, to a homogeneously White area; these folks are literally incompetent in the face of real challenges. I have never had more trouble here than when I have pointed out or challenged the incompetence of a White person.

It never did. There's a reason there's so many sects. Your larger organizations are more interested in selling the magic of ancient knowledge, than they are teaching the congregation philosophy. Faith is in the community, move beyond that and you will inevitably become a Financial Institution.

I just separated myself from a 70 hour week because it was affecting not just my health, but also my school and waking life. No one should have to work 60-70 hours to get ahead. It's detrimental to society, and the only reason we have to is to maintain CEO pay and imaginary shareholder value.

Putin though, is just pure opportunist, will take advantage of the looting and the chaos, but there's no real plans beyond the chaos. They can't build anything, they lack the skills.

Yeah, this is basically just Russian Oligarchs, using Putin's asset, to wash money for his war. I think Trump's people are probably foolish enough to think they'll maintain power, but I rather suspect that their handlers aren't quite as stupid; though their miscalculation os US pop will be historic.

The good news is it's just a money laundering operation, so it will likely never be finished.

Billionaires. They can no longer control everything, and they will destroy it all, before they let go of any power. Trump is just the agent of Darkness, he's not its source. If the Melon family can pay for the military directly, they can surely pay taxes.

The richest man on earth owns X.

The second richest man on earth is about to acquire TikTok and his family could soon own both Paramount and Warner Bros.

The third richest man owns Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp.

The fourth richest man owns The Washington Post.

See the problem here?

Stephen Miller, has absolutely no authority, like none. Legally speaking, he should be filling out a requisition to wipe his ass, so why is he giving Hitler speeches on mainstream media, with no pushback. I mean I know why; Billionaires must be destroyed. Still, this little pud is an easy takedown.

Also lit by torches, and designed to highlight the statues, frescoes and reliefs. It's like hieroglyphics were meant to be seen by torches, their paints reaction with the light is intentionally meant to look other worldly.

I'm actually a huge advocate of replacing the WH, making it a museum, and replacing it with a modern, functional building that could be a tribute to actual American architectural style. The WH is outdated, has a deep history with slavery, and doesn't have any benefits other than history.

Neo-classical, isn't our architecture, nor was our society ever built around it. Usonian, Deco, Arts and Crafts, Prairie, are all more American, pervasive, and at the heart of US design and identity. Neo-classical is European, rooted in Colonialism, and ignorantly apes better Classical design.
