Taylor really led me astray with “you took the night train for a reason” because they leave the fucking fluorescent overheads on the whole time, so if you’re getting that good 2AM cry in, it’s next to a stranger and fully lit. 1/5 stars.
Mitski makes sure you know she means business when she comes onstage in jazz shoes and knee pads like she’s starting her morning with Physical Theatre and Movement IV
@ericcartman_nl @UnbiasedCrime Forcefully applying? I’m talking about taxes and legislated social programs to help communities and lower crime. If you’re critiquing communism, “from each according to his ability, to each according to his needs” is the idea so if you don’t need, don’t take. Easy.
@HildaPumpernic1@UnbiasedCrime Individuals vs communities. The kinds of activities that lead to homicide rates like this are way beyond the scope of individuals and (generally) involve organized crime, which targets communities. There are certainly poor people of all races both committing crimes and not.
@UnbiasedCrime The amount of gun violence in DC is horrifying and serious measures need to be taken to curb it, but throwing out a fact about gun violence and supporting it with a graph about crime levels by race is disingenuous at best and underscores the biases you actively claim to avoid.
@UnbiasedCrime Wanna do more graphs by race? How about household income or educational outcome by race?
Crime happens when communities are left unsupported. If the systems of society make it nearly impossible for you to succeed and make an “honest living”, where else are you supposed to turn?
Everyone is talking about how listening to Boygenius got them placed in Burlington, VT but listening to Boygenius and Chappell Roan got me Cambridge, MA, which somehow feels both better and worse
I already know I’m a lesbian, but the fact that rumors about Ani DiFranco as the next Persephone in Hadestown made me realize that my dream stunt-cast Orpheus/Eurydice to join her would be Hozier and Lucy Dacus has me floored with how Zillenial Dyke it reads
Purgatory is real and it exists in mall bathrooms that don’t have speakers playing the music that is playing in the hallway, making you enter an empty void of bodily noises and flushing
This is astonishing, yet not surprising. If it feels like you're far less safe in NYC than ever before, it's not bc shootings are up. It's because the media (fueled by lies & fearmongering by NYC Mayor Eric Adams) is up. Look at this chart. Red line is shootings. Grey is media.
Something important just happened. People illegally caged pretrial in Prince George's County, MD risked retaliation & *sued* the jail where they're *currently jailed.*
The lawsuit is powerful. One of clearest I've read. Reads like a Twitter thread. I've posted it for you below.
Your WIFE???? You came into a big chain coffee shop and ordered your WIFE WHO HAS CELIACS an OATMILK drink, then had no idea what to possibly get her as an alternative???? THE WOMAN YOU ARE MARRIED TO?????
Had a customer during rush yesterday order a white mocha and drink that comes standard with oat milk, then five minutes later when the drinks are almost done come up and say “hey my wife has celiac’s she probably can’t have the oat milk drink, hold on I’m calling her”
