I love living in a city full of immigrants and tons and tons of people who are not at all like me and not like each other. It makes us all better and it makes our city better. I know I’m preaching to the choir by saying this on the lib app but I sometimes just get so overwhelmed by how special it is

Texans will vote on 17 constitutional amendments on Nov. 4.

Here’s the ballot in plain English: If you’re wealthy, the state promises to protect your fortune. For everyone else, there’s small perks, patriotic gestures, and pothole-filling promises.

Texas Is Asking Voters to Protect the Rich and Punish the Poor. Will They Do It?

Among 17 potential constitutional amendments, voters will be deciding the fate of corporate welfare and inherited wealth.

Saw Perfect Blue for the first time tonight. Amazing movie and no I don’t know why this was the only Satoshi Kon movie I hadn’t seen yet

I love the spirit of this question (and the specific endorsement of Eli’s special! There is so much great comedy being performed and recorded now but a lot of it is falling through the cracks because of so much high profile garbage! (A lot of good stuff is thriving too!)

Drew Magary @drewmagary.bsky.social · 4d

All right enough about the blood money comedians. Let’s talk GOOD comedians. I saw @davidjroth.bsky.social link to this special once and it had me dying. youtu.be/g9NT46SGqFY?...

I identify with everything in this thread including watching Thief on my iPad that I bought and never use for drawing on a flight to Vegas.

Now I’m imagining a wonderful world where Glacier was featured in Lucha Underground

What you miss by not watching ROH. The Frat House's (including Blue Meanie and Burnard the Business bear) party got interrupted by the HOA. The HOA was Glacier who put one of them through a table. Then turns out they were partying in a random's backyard the entire time.
