Diane Keaton in her Manhattan apartment with Buster, an Abyssinian, photographed by Jill Krementz in 1977

black & white photograph of young Diane Keaton smiling and standing next to a white refrigerator in a barren-looking kitchen. her cat Buster is crouched on top of the fridge playing with/swatting her hair in the upper right hand corner. she's wearing a long skinny white scarf with a dot-grid pattern, a high-neck white blouse with an ascot/kerchief around the neck, and a black blazer/skirt or blazer dress over what looks like a vest

Doesn't 'getting tough on crime' imply *increased* policing, arrests, and convictions? The idea that criminals consider penalties or the outrage of shock-jocks before committing a crime seems daft. But that's their business model I guess.

Almost like none of these unqualified, inexperienced appointees have a fucking clue.

That much dry firewood is like a physical manifestation of a big major arpeggio which goes on and on.

If it's the only way you can get it to stay open, you definitely should continue.

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Broadview’s “free speech” curfew starts soon, at 6pm.

It seems when billionaires realise money only brings certain kinds of affection or respect from certain kinds of people they are wildly envious of people who earn those things without wealth.

Now with #AltText

A black background has white text at the top that says “amphifa.” Two flags over each other, common antifa flags, have a black flag and a green one. An image of a green frog facing left with a blue ascot sits on the black flag. Circling the flags is the text, “amphibians against fascism.”
