How about we make government policy out of making sure everyone has the material things they need and then people can look after their spiritual well being on their own time (which they'll hopefully have significantly more of)

tweet from @arod_twit:

"characters in tv shows are too self aware now! every emotional convo is like "i guess i yelled at you earlier because i never processed dad leaving" no!! no!!! flush someone's blood pressure medication because they called you lazy."

People increasingly expect everything to be explained to them. I think audiences expect shows they can understand while doing something different else at the same time

Can you put into words what that purpose is? You and the frog have really become icons of this protest.

There’s been a nice overall whimsy that has shown up. The frog is amazing. We had a bunch of other inflatable people here last night, too. I saw people playing Twister the other day.

What they rely on is fear. So by coming out in an absurdist manner, it speaks to them, to some extent, that we’re actually not that afraid.

It also dismantles their narrative a little bit. When they try to describe this situation as “war-torn,” it becomes much harder to take them seriously when they have to post a video saying [U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security] Kristi Noem is up on the balcony staring over the Antifa Army and it’s, like, eight journalists and five protesters and one of them is in a chicken suit.

Taos is very pretty. The Martinez Hacienda museum was interesting. If you want to know more about life in the southwest in the 1800's I'd definitely give it a visit

Whenever I think of fun and whimsy, I remember Porco Rosso - a movie about a pilot who self-curses himself to look like a pig because he's lost his faith in humanity and is actively on the run from fascists because he wasn't into the fascism.

There are plenty of hilarious things about Stephen Miller that have nothing to do with his height. The fact that he's afraid of Black people. That he hasn't emotionally matured because a Latina curved him for being a weirdo. That he looks like Dracula and Goebbels had a science baby.
