I'm asking for infrastructure geeks and eagle-eyed observers out there to please join the deflock game. RULES: Go to deflock(.)me, learn what ALPR's look like. Spot them. Stop safely. Use what3words to map them. Add their location to OpenStreetMap. Never driver by them again.
Why is my year so much earlier than everyone else's?

hell of an image, man
Here's a photo of my friend and colleague, Jorge Bautista, getting shot in the face with a flashbang grenade. The ICE Agent is so afraid of Jorge (who was posing no threat) that he has wet himself. Please share this photo. Everyone needs to know what cowards ICE agents are.

Gustavo Dudamel conducting Mahler's "Resurrection" at the Disney Concert Hall.
What would be the wildest concert for a fight to break out at?

Ironically, movie and TV productions are the closest things to small scale military operations. It takes a small army of ppl to get 3 actors and a camera into a room in Paris. Maybe a few more gay and non-binary ppl involved, but not by many.
most of these people think military effectiveness is homoerotic guys in tank tops playing volleyball between fighter jet missions but the real military is ten thousand people in an office making sure food goes where it needs to

I guess hoarding all the guns wasn't about facing down the "jack-booted" thugs so much as protecting the hoard of guns. Huh.

If you were in the room during Hegseth and Trump's speech, and you'd like to share your response anonymously, reach out to me on Signal (in bio.) Share widely.

I think what gets left out of these discussions, including this one, is a basic civics lesson on what "Liberalism" means. It does not mean left-wing. It's a system of Govt based on free speech and consent. Locke was the Founders' inspiration, not Jesus.
MAGA is embracing the kind of tactics it once deplored, Idrees Kahloon argues. "A culture of self-censorship is destructive. But prescribing state ideology as a cure is like treating a migraine with a lobotomy."
America’s Illiberalism Doom Loop
Republicans had real grievances with progressive orthodoxy—and are using them to justify drastic reprisals.

PT Anderson's "One Battle After Another" has a giant budget, giant stars and giant action. But what real Pynchon fans want to know is, "does it have a giant adenoid?"

Perhaps if Madison had gotten a musical instead of Hamilton, we wouldn't be in this mess.

“In science one tries to tell people, in such a way as to be understood by everyone, something that no one ever knew before. But in the case of poetry, it’s the exact opposite!” — Paul Dirac

I had no idea Dirac was so funny! I wonder if he and Feynman were a riot together.

Another discussion all the cool kids are having that I don't have a single thing to say about. I can't think of a single thing I've held onto since childhood, except extreme misanthropy of course.
My increasingly close-held crank take is that we need to be way better about casting off childish things, or at the bare minimum recognizing they’re for children and feeling weird about that
Is Harry Potter mainly for kids?

Entirely/mostly for children: 43%
Equally for children and adults: 50%
Entirely/mostly for adults: 3%

NEW: Thanks to @theflytrapmedia.com, I got to write about Kristi Noem in a way I wouldn't otherwise be able to write about Kristi Noem, by speaking to feminist writers, organizers, & policy experts about internalized misogyny & what Noem's extreme makeover tells us about the changing face of evil.
'Ice Barbie' Kristi Noem: The Face of Our Slide Into Fascism
Kristi Noem’s appearance is designed for reality TV and her aesthetic reflects the brutality of the Trump administration.

the “in one form or another” addition here is the tell that this is a troll, he knows about USAID, he knows about covid failures, but acknowledging them reduces the owning the libs efficacy
people saying “dumb libs think Trump is worse than bush” are honestly just insecure about their own intelligence, and feel a need to prove that they are smarter than everyone else.

ironically, their stance just reveals they are the stupid ones and have never heard of PEPFAR

Fraudulent animal rescue! 🚨 Please report @mylovelyhorsesresc.bsky.social and if you would like to follow a REAL sanctuary that rescues horses, donkeys, goats, sheep, and lots of other animals check out @merrymacsanctuary.bsky.social.
Some of you are following this account. This is not the legit rescue, it is fake. Also this picture of the horse I know very well and is from a legit horse rescue in California. They are stealing pics and posting for fake donations. Block and report.

With the caveat that I'm X old and don't have kids, my anecdotal obsv is the neighborhood GenZ seem to flatten gender with a post-pandemic uniform of baggy whatever and hoodies. My niece in LA might accessorize in more feminine colors, but I've not seen her in a dress since confirmation.
fully ready to accept that this is largely an online phenomenon, with the caveat that a substantial portions of current important phenomena are online

I just learned of Skunk Anansie today, and there is nothing I want more, musically, than for a Skin-Ren duet/colab.
