It's a White Power rally. Anyone who says otherwise is either a liar or a fool. Possibly both.

Reporting from Milwaukee: tonight at day 2 of Trump’s coronation, the evening’s theme — with the crowd hooting and smiling along — was just a deluge of gore, blood in the streets, xenophobic scapegoating, terror, unstoppable bloodshed (unless we elect Trump!)… www.rollingstone.com/politics/pol...

There is never any shame in using the library, and much benefit in doing so. They are the closest thing to an unmitigated social good that we have in these United States, which is why the hard right is gunning so fervently for them these days. A world without libraries and librarians is a poor one.

My book-buying budget is not what it once was, which is precisely why I’m using the library more. It also gives me the opportunity to read books that I’m not sure I want to add to the home library (not that there’s a lot of room to do that anyway).

Just a reminder: it’s good to oppose assassinations. But you are under absolutely no obligation to treat Trumpists and Trump-apologists as people who are honest, or acting in good faith, when they purport to condemn political violence or violent rhetoric. They’re not sincere.

Look, whether you think Biden's got it all together or not, after tonight I think it's pretty obvious he's staying in. So the choice is between Grampa Mumbles and the felonious con-man rapist treason weasel. If that's not a stark enough choice, I don't know what to tell ya.

That's the #Tesla design aesthetic. All the warmth and charm of a hospital waiting room.

I always thought Setzer was one of the most compelling characters in FF6, which itself is a criminally under-utilized title in an age of remakes and remasters. Hopefully one day Square will return to excavate more from this forgotten goldmine. #Square #FinalFantasy #FFVI

It's not denying freedom of speech if someone won't pay you to say your intolerant horseshit. It's the fucking capitalism I thought you all adored so much.
