I’m about to see Dead & Company in August, though I highly doubt that’s what you meant by current.
I have no clue what the kids are listening to these days. Now get off my lawn.
That said, Goose is excellent if jam bands are your jam.

You could say a lack of funds wasn’t in the… forecast.
At this point I’m fairly confident that they could find irrevocable proof that the 2024 election was a sham, and nothing would come of it.
Look up last week’s lottery numbers, then head back to last week.
I don’t wanna play the make money game anymore.
Maybe if you’re Mormon or bathing in it
Eh, call it a boneappletea moment. Lion’s share.
Here in the rural sticks, the realities don’t align. The fourth felt like a typical day in Mayberry. You see no evidence of the strife, ICE, any of it.
I’m fairly confident that’s intentional. I live in a rural CA mountain area, but we are close enough that we hear what’s going on. There have been small isolated instances here in our town, but no major raids that iI know of. My wife is 4th gen Mexican American, and her family back in LA is quite on edge. You don’t have to go far to find someone who is missing a friend/family/neighbor/etc. Some of whom are Americans. Yet I talk to one of my best friends that’s in the sticks of northern Colorado, nothing is happening up there.
My point here is that these raids are targeting blue cities/areas, and by leaving the mostly red strongholds alone, Fox et al can perpetuate that myth that everything is above board, and resistance is coming from the radical left. I’m fairly certain the administration would invite the incitation of civil unrest if only invoke martial law and the insurrection act, begin the “cleansing,” and suspend elections indefinitely. The only people I’ve met who would like to begin shooting are the gravy seal types. No one else wants this shit.
These teachers are just teaching from the same cloth they were taught from.
The teaching goals in this system are to teach obedience, not information. It’s highly useful when training the next generation of factory workers, not thinking individuals. The teachers are teaching a mindset.
And it varies from school to school, locale to locale. It depends on what the admin views as productive and necessary, almost like a culture in a sense, and is the difference between an inner city school vs a private elite school.
So apparently around Los Angeles there’s a supposed begging “cartel”, wherein some of the folks who beg at stoplights and freeway off ramps are actually working for an organized ring. The way it was explained was that this group takes the lionshare of their donations and offer protection, food, and safe sleeping areas. I don’t know how true this is, but I’ve heard it from quite a few unrelated people, one of which being a cop, so either there’s some truth to it or it’s a very elaborate hoax to get people to stop giving beggars money.
I’m pretty sure they’re just going after advertising on the front and data sales/AI on the back end. It’s inherently difficult to monetize an old-school internet forum, especially one like Reddit where the incumbent user base is vehemently opposed to adverts and in strong favor of privacy. I don’t think they’re too big to fail (cough Digg), they’re just popular and people dislike change. But I do think they’re barking up the wrong tree with their userbase.
The current account I have dates to 2015 before they required email, and they’ll get a throwaway before I give them one of my real ones. But even then, whatever, I’ve really only gone back there maybe once a week for the past few years.
Eh, to an extent. If they are original funders, I agree. But when you have people or groups buying rights to music/movies/tv/etc to claim royalties in perpetuity, especially after the original creatives die, those people can fall into a pit of uncapped rusty rebar.
Not enough clutching
Bullseye. While I agree campaign finance reform is a huge step, there are a number of things that need to change to get ourselves on the right footing. The big one in my mind is anti corruption laws that actually have teeth.
I mean, hell, if the right wing Dems separate from the progressives and join the less-crazy-than-maga centerish Republicans and they go play in corporate-funded Neverland that hopefully no sane voter would touch with a ten foot pole, a real progressive party might actually become a possibility. It’ll isolate the magats and push them back into a hole, we may get a more moderate conservative party that could be open to compromising again, and hopefully a coalition of real progressives can begin putting forward some much needed ideas.
The key will be ensuring that that progressive party is funded well enough to compete with the corporate money that is pumped by the truckload into that new coalition (which will be a feat in itself).
I dunno, just anything to get these fucking fleas out of our politics.
I want to see these people sent to the gallows.
“…but the libs got pwnd.”
They want to set up $45b towards detention facilities, and by golly they’ll fill them. There’s a lot of gays, blacks, and liberals out there when they run out of latinos.
Yup, I have my Unifi gear for the automated allocation like you said, though I think pretty much every SOHO manufacturer does this to some degree these days.
Of all the crap that comes out of the dipshit-in-chief’s mouth, the one thing I really wish he would’ve followed through on was deporting Elmo.
