  She’s a lefty twitch streamer who’s usually on in the mornings, mostly does reacts to current event stuff with some light context discussion, is one of the people Ethan Klein has tried to bully with lawsuits.

  Th3Discourse with Majority Report contributor Brandon Sutton is another cozy lefty morning twitch stream.

  I’ll stop yelling at the cloud when it stops tripling my electric bill!

  The only place I hear anything about that guy is on lefty podcasts and streams, I tend to avoid most social media so I’m not exactly tapped in to that shit but it kind of feels like the reactive coverage is his biggest boost. I tune in to chapo and hasan and friedland and denims and seder and holy shit I’m so sick of hearing about this irrelevant fucked up kid.

  NYPD all wear cameras, they cant present it as evidence if they want to be taken seriously.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Finally, taxpayer dollars put to a good use⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  So yeah, zero mention of rocks.

  And I wouldn’t take the fact that the cops went to the hospital as evidence of anything, that is very by the book whenever NYPD wants to claim assault on an officer.

  I remember the first season or two that it was out, it was too stressful for me to watch. I had just never seen any fiction until that point which had that level of consistent, nonstop manic trainwreck quality to it.

  Looking at ebay for guns cheapass but fully functional AR-patterns seem to start around $400 these days.

  You’re about to get mad at him for taking so long but then you realize it’s only because he was having trouble carrying a dozen pints.

  They were so expensive at their peak and I’m convinced it was due almost as much to raw amount of material as it was their popularity.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Word up⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No no, I voluntarily moved on to skinny jeans around 2005. Don’t worry, I eventually voluntarily moved on from those too.

  Yet it was on the same descending progression we are on now, relatively speaking it felt the same then as now, and if we continue down this spiral without annihilating ourselves the next one will make trump look just like dubya.

  > Created ICE
  > Created TSA (No fly list, porno scanners, etc)
  > Created the Patriot Act
  > Created No Child Left Behind Act (Left lots of children behind) > Lied to invade Iraq (Hundreds of thousands dead, inspired ISIS, Abu Ghraib)
  > Lied to invade Afghanistan (Hundreds of thousands dead again)
  > Botched Hurricane Katrina response, domestic humanitarian disaster
  > Emboldened a wave of evangelicism that dulled American culture for years
  > Normalized state torture in the west at Guantanamo
  > Halliburton > Vice President shot a guy
  > Greatly expanded NSA domestic surveillance and FISA

  These are just the big ones off the top of my head, I could go on.

  It’s definitely leveraging the present moment to create a myth of relative harm that serves to sanitize the past.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Annon relfects on W doing it for the love of the game⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Katrina

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Annon relfects on W doing it for the love of the game⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  So many people around now who weren’t even born yet when dubya was fucking shit up and have only experienced the sanitized version of his legacy where he’s at best a dumb fall guy.

  No no no, totally different oligarchic blackmail conspiracy ring. Skull and Bones, not Little St James. Easy to confuse the two!

  My guns are a last stand deterrent. I don’t want to shoot anybody unless I know that they intend to shoot me.

  Not just crushed ants, I smell it when they’re scared and running as well. Calm ants though, they don’t smell to me.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, beetles in general don’t smell great to me. They leave a fecal-like scent on my fingers when I hold them (Which I’ve always assumed is some sort of musk and not actual feces). I can smell ants too, but it’s only when they’re scared: They seem to release a chemical that smells to me like Windex the moment they realize they’re possibly in danger. I didn’t know that made me special, but I do know that others might not be able to smell it as I’ve had conversations about this with people who didn’t know wtf I was talking about. I’ve heard that it might be formic acid? Not sure.

  Just like Marx himself, I feel that today we completely underestimate capitalism’s capability to endlessly adapt itself to changing material and political conditions.

  Like, I was about to make the joke “The first part will definitely happen” to imply that the second part will only happen with a lot of effort on our part. But now that I’m thinking about it… Neither of these things will happen without a lot of effort on our part.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THIS is an inventive idea⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I meant that lightheartedly, though I do think that doing 5+ year grows on agricultural lots for purely gimmick purposes isn’t too great, at least from a resource management and ecology standpoint. I’m not here to argue against christmas trees though, I just think LePoisson’s rebuttal that one instance of a thing isn’t a problem because we do lots of instances of that thing is logically flawed. I’m here to argue against the logic, not the trees.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨THIS is an inventive idea⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I feel like that makes the problem seem much worse, and not better?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trying to find a messenger bag at Amazon⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  My day bag is a Chrome. I got it at their brick and mortar location in lower Manhattan over ten years ago. It goes on every trip with me short or long and has seen multiple lengthy eras of daily use yet it doesn’t have a single fray or tear. And if it did, they have a free lifetime repair policy. Fucking incredible, literally one of the most excellent purchases of my life.
