Never mind the jobs you had, tell me five classes you took in college -Political Propaganda -Music Theory -Mystical Consciousness -Comparative Religion -Audio For The Visual Medium II

One of the truest things I’ve ever read

Think about how little your representatives have said or done to defend their colleague Ilhan Omar. Now try to imagine how little they will do when it's our turn.

The Omar removal, if it happens, needs to be met with proportional measures: general strikes, affected states withholding tax money, state governments arresting and charging federal officials with any state crimes for their role in the illegal expulsion.

Some people, and I don't just mean Trump, have been moving through the world as though they would never face a potential consequence for any choice ever again, because they never planned on losing power. That means they think they can't afford to lose now. There are a lot of desperate moves ahead.

Cold opening Scene: Superfans table at the bar. The camera slowly pans around the empty seats. Bartender comes over, without quietly wipes down the table. Looks up and directly into the camera: LIVE FROM NEW YORK -- IT'S SATURDAY NIGHT!!

Let's make the Musk doc into the next Rocky Horror: a destination event with scripted audience participation that plays in perpetuity in every college town

"The Tamale Guy" delivered tonight's game ball in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Night!

Never forghetti

I worked on a city of Chicago run program at O’Hare airport, on September 12th or 13th they had every member of the staff go out into the parking area and hold tiny plastic US flags, I can only assume it was so I could learn the word “jingoism”

Legal asked the toaster if the toasters were legal and the toaster said toasters are legal so legal says the toasters are legal.

Yesssssssss!!!!!

For a junk drawer to legally qualify as a real junk drawer, what is the ONE absolute mandatory item it must include? A couple C or D-cell batteries, whatever fits in the ancient tungsten bulb flashlight next to them, all of it obsolete for 20+ years.

So was it written

Anybody got a good plumber that will do some kitchen and bathroom stuff out by O’Hare?

Only ketchup

This album is so very good. If you like any type of music you have a good probability of liking this album.

Doing what every good patriotic American does on the 4th of July. Swimming naked in the Baltic after a nice sauna. Not a single firework in earshot.

This sounds crazy to me, a person who keeps his AC set at 80 because that’s what’s actually comfortable with summer attire aka shorts and a tshirt

Happy Immigrant Heritage Month, Illinois. My family escaped Ukraine from the pogroms — this nation accepted us as refugees with nothing except the shirts on our backs. This is a country of immigrants, and we should always be proud and honor that.

But the funeral...

So great, if you’re into that sort of thing

I will repost this every time I come across it again

Here is a livestream of crews removing Trump’s name from the Kennedy Center. I’m pretending this is part of the 250 celebrations. www.youtube.com/live/aAhm880...

I’m not sure I want to know what New York flavored tastes like. Some mix of bodily fluids from both humans and rats?

On the way to work today, I got a new understanding of wabi sabi. I didn’t even think to try and coordinate them, and missed the most perfect combo possible by 0.3 miles

Without downloading anything new, where are you, mentally?

In some ways (most of them?) this is extremely, extremely embarrassing. But it is a great reminder that we all get to do questionable shit when we’re young, and that’s beautiful. And holy crap do I feel lucky for this having been recorded. Wouldn’t change a thing, except maybe like 70% of it

Professional sporting is a pox on humanity.

Today was the last tech scout The Chi will ever have. Weird to know that after working on something for so many years, which up until very recently was expected to go for a bunch more years, it’s all ending. I’m surely aware of the impermanence of…everything, really. Sometimes it has a feeling to it

I’m not crying you’re crying

OK, now do bribes.

Anyone in Chicagoland know a good cello teacher, for a new-to-music adult?
