TONIGHT AT COMET PING PONG!! The Dim Wizard live rock and roll experience will open for the legendary Mirah and the excellent local songwriter Jane O'Neill. We're on at 9:30 playing some of our chiller jams, which will still be... kinda loud, sorry. SEE YOU THERE!!

The rebranding of reactionary gender and biological essentialism as “heterodox and challenging ideas to which liberal students must be exposed” is one of the greatest achievements of our stupid era. Congratulations to the reactionary centrists who helped make it happen - you dupes, you utter dolts.

Actually wild that the Texas legislature banned trans people from bathrooms in government buildings yesterday and it hasn’t gotten a whiff of news coverage in the Associated Press, NYT, WaPo, etc I guess the national news biz is just shrugging at this stuff now?

Social media is being banned in one of the states with the highest percentage of the population being black. Trump has taken over the DC police, one of the cities with the highest black population. Yall noticing a pattern?

Texas, the state with the most black people, redrew their congressional map to suppress voters. Florida, the state with the second highest population of black people in the country, did this same thing after Ron DeSantis won by a very thin margin in 2018. Yall noticing a pattern?!

i think people need a refresher on what constitutes a Distraction. the cracker barrel logo thing (zero stakes, obviously invented controversy) is a Distraction. the ongoing military occupation of washington dc (ample footage of random delivery drivers being violently detained by feds) is not

“beautifying” is a political message here and news outlets should put it in quotes

Bloomberg News@bloomberg.com

President Donald Trump said he would seek $2 billion from Congress for beautifying and fighting crime in Washington, DC, the next step in his effort to exert greater authority over the nation’s capital

we call upon any musical artists who are touring through dc or who owe even a modicum of their success in music to the local scene we hold dear to please donate at least a portion of your dc show ticket sales, merch sales or even just spare cash to the people saving lives in our city right now

every time these people say something disgusting and racist about DC im gonna say something i like about it. the obvious place to start is go-go, which if there was any justice in the world would be THEE people’s dance music

A reference to "cockroaches" is telling. They see Black citizens of DC, migrants, and the unhoused as pests in need of removal, never mind the preceding centuries of inequality, slavery, death and terror. Please stay vigilant and feel free to report anything you see to us or tag us in your post

if you live in DC you can see some kickass go-go on this very evening!! if you don’t you can hip to it by watching the documentary The Legend of Cool Disco Dan, you’ll learn about the beat and the early 80s context it developed in and of course about marion barry (our mayor for life)

I’m kind of speechless with this one. I can’t imagine the kind of person who continues to make the argument that it doesn’t count as real starvation if the kids were already sick.
