Oh 100%….i didn’t feel sad for him per se, it just wasn’t joy at the downfall anymore.

He’s at the bottom of the list of people to help that the U.S. justice system and capitalism has hurt.

And it was worth listening to you both navigate that reality.

Talking about Cantwell and as someone who has taken great pleasure in shitting on him in the past, it was less fun this time around, and I don’t know how I feel about that.

Intro and outro music still slaps.

It seems like many people believe evangelicalism is being used as a tool by fascism right now, but I truly think it’s evangelicalism using fascism as a tool.

Please use more SM57’s in videos. Those of us dying to explain to civilians how special the SM57 and 58 are need more ways to shoehorn that into conversations.

also how have i never seen the amazing video?
nice to see an SM57 getting some work as a video vocal mic instead of some fake Elvis job

Jack will always express the reality of the moment with eloquence, intelligence, and context.

I will express in more vulgar, dare I say “American” terms:

Shits fucked.

The term 'political violence' exists to manufacture an artificial distinction between the violence of capital and the state against the working class and any violence against capital and the state, expressly so that the former can be tacitly endorsed while the latter is condemned.

Well……fuck.

So @michaelswaim.bsky.social continues his long tradition of putting a shocking amount of effort into joke analysis only to get reamed by algorithms. Watch his incredible movie-length video essay on Groundskeeper Willie, and help him ream back. www.youtube.com/watch?v=sLMc...

We scrapped together enough money to do a very very small run of vinyl and I can’t really explain my emotions.

All we have are each other. I hope your surgery goes well and you heal quickly.

Doc was the one who told them to do it. Hit that kid for Christ. He taught bigotry. He taught Christian fascism. He was a terrible fucking human and I’m HAPPY he’s fucking dead. I hope it hurt. I hope he died scared of the other side. Fuck him. Fuck his church. Fuck his followers.

Nathaniel South @thisissouth.bsky.social · Aug 21

I don’t have enough words to explain how much pain and hate this man brought into my world. My world and the world of millions of other kids. My physical abuse started with “disciplinary spankings”. That was my parent’s gateway drug to beating me.

Good people are dead and we’re alive. Fight them. With violence if necessary. Fight them forever.

Heather Heyer changed my life. Her death on this day in 2017 was the beginning of my rebirth as a radical. Fascist continue to gain power and I will fight them until I am dead. I hope you will too. Fear is not an excuse.

Some days I feel a great heavy sense of failure. I wanted to help us not get to this point and avoid the pain that I now think is inevitable.

Death has come to collect her price, and America will feed her.

I will never feel like sexually molested will express the depth of what was done to me,and taken from me. I hope you have peace in your heart and love all around you.

Leg Day/20min cardio I wish I hadn’t been so fucked up as a kid. Sex, and sexuality still feel awkward and hard. I know more about myself than I could have ever hoped for, but still lack the language, confidence, or feeling of safety to express most of it.

Biceps/forearms/triceps/25min cardio Took a week off. Feels good to be back. Thinking about starting to conceal carry. Thinking about the record we put out last November. Thinking about you and what you’re thinking about me. Thinking. Peace and love.

Had another derby coaching dream. This one was me explaining my system to a former skater in detail. It was the actual system too. I even referenced the Dooms first season record (12-1).

I will be coaching derby in my head forever.
