Dumb and/or frivolous lawyer. Mad a lot.

I know my behavior can be ... heh... erratic sometimes.
One thing I like about this time of year (maybe the only thing) is that we aren't moving into spring vibes yet, but the pre holiday winter vibes are over and it's almost a second fall.

Anyway this jacket is houndstooth 90s vintage and its my new favorite

Plus, slippers

Just found out a taxidermied Marmot named Flatiron Fred in Boulder predicted an early spring and I choose to follow Fred

When you can afford to buy anything you want, you start wanting some really fucked up things you can't buy.

What does it take to build a USL roster? I talked to Fort Wayne FC’s Oliver Gage and the Richmond Kickers’ Darren Sawatzky about the scouting process – from the use of data to organizational structure and everything in between.

How USL clubs scout players: Agents, hours of film & more
From a one-person unit to more robust sporting departments, scouting resources vary across the USL — but every club faces the same challenge: finding the right players.

the Epstein files make it very clear why the MeToo backlash was so extreme and why so much of elite society preferred Donald Trump ruling us like a king to the barest hint of accountability

It shows a remarkable amount of restraint on the part of the rest of society that the worst injury an ICE officer has experienced is busting his ass on an icy road
I was there. They were indiscriminately firing multiple canisters into a huge peaceful crowd. Fucking cowards

Absolutely surreal to continue to hear about drawdowns and lowered temperatures and things calming down in Minneapolis when, as far as I can tell, literally nothing has changed on the ground

Uber-rich Americans are the most cynical selfish assholes on the planet.

They live in a system that coddles, enriches and protects them, and they constantly want to burn it down.
This is new to me. We knew that Epstein was working with Kremlin official Belyakov to circumvent sanctions post Crimea, but his eagerness to help Putin beat the West predates that

Look I care so much about it because economic protest will be the way for regular people to counteract fascism. Voting and politicians are not going to break the system in a way it needs broken to get us back on track

insisting on calling every mass day of protest or one-day boycott a "general strike" is not the move. it's good to see people rallying around the cause, it matters, but if you want to be part of a large-scale labor action that shuts down the gears of capital, start by unionizing your workplace!!!

I mean not to be a bitch but if you stay open today you're no better than a scab. Regardless of your 10% donation to assuage your guilt you're trying to get a free ride and youre diminishing the impact.

A whole lot of local business are missing the point of a general strike
