You know what I don't want? My content appearing next to Nazi shit. I don't care if Nazis buy Substack subscriptions too and might be a good revenue stream; I don't want their money, because I don't want them in any community or project I'm trying to build.

Great book, and well worth your time.
What better time to read a book about Siskel and Ebert than on the eve of the 50th anniversary of their debut episode???

the president has destroyed the east wing of the white house without so much as a word of input from anyone else to build a royal ballroom paid for with bribes
NEW: After The Washington Post reported Monday on the demolition of the "East Wing facade," a new picture obtained by Law Dork that was taken on Tuesday shows that a substantial portion of the entirety of the East Wing has been demolished.

The White House is asking people not to share pictures of the East Wing because it’s even worse today.

Hey, so another piece of advice for people who are S-Corps: there is a company called Opolis that acts as your employer of record and will provide health insurance and other benefits.
If you're a writer/other creator in the United States, consider creating an LLC for your business and then signing up for a local area Chamber of Commerce. Many of them have health insurance plans that pool their members and members of other CoCs to create insurance efficiencies relative to ACA.

I say this every time: contemporary pumpkin slice is all spice, no pumpkin. And that ain’t right.
SLAYER… Pages from my hugely expanded, updated band biography. Slayer crowd violence — “Slayer hooliganism,” as superfan Jay Levitz calls it — peaked on the South of Heaven tour. LA was a small riot. New York, lots of property damage. Learn more & buy at SlayerBooks.com #Slayer #thrash #thrashmetal

A law was passed a long time ago to place a plaque on the wall to honor the officers who defended the Capitol on J6. The plaque is done and has been ready to hang up for a long time. MAGA Mike refuses to comply with that law, which is a slap in the face to every officer. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Mike Johnson: "We've always stood with Capitol police and law enforcement. We've shown that in word and deed."

These people are either delusional, knowingly lying, or just psychotic. There has already been two of these. They were attended by millions and entirely peaceful. Touch grass, Bessent. bsky.app/profile/atru...
Bessent: "This crazy No Kings rally this weekend, which is gonna be the farthest left, the hardest core, the most unhinged in the Democratic Party, which is a big title. No Kings equals no paychecks."

I settled on a clip from the (incredible) doc Sly Lives! (watch it now on Hulu if you haven't.) I think it's the most transparent commentary I ever heard from D'Angelo; it's about Sly, but it's really about him.

My plan was to grab a whole different clip, but this one felt right.
D’Angelo?!?! Time is undefeated. RIP.
