I never said the current system is fair (been a renter in New York and now DC so yeah I know about unfairly high rents) but that doesn’t mean the right not solution is housing co-ops, or Marxism and eliminating private property. I don’t have a problem with private property and landlords, I just think we need stricter…

For real Marxists, any and all rent seeking behavior is inherently unethical. This is just an article of faith that flows from the principles that underpin communism.
Right?!?! We are shutting down abortion clinics to keep everyone safe, but fuck actual people who are actually alive right now.
They are not exactly “pro-life”, never have been.
Boomers choosing to die so that their decedents can enjoy economic success?
My guess is, in reality, Dan Patrick would be about the last person to make the ultimate sacrifice for any reason. Rightists always talk a good game when others have to pay the price.
RIGHT? That reporter gave him such an opportunity to say some vaguely inspiring “we’re all in this together and we’re working hard to help you” type of stuff and he fucking biffs it with that “I hate the press!” attitude.
Just a point of order—Typhoid Mary thought the doctors were lying to her about her being a typhoid carrier without getting sick, so she ignored orders, medical and civil, and continued on being household help. The reason she had to be locked up is that she absolutely refused to cooperate with not infecting others.…
He almost made it. The fat gassy ass-clown almost made it to election season, where he would have spent the next seven and a half months doing his obnoxious act all over the country. Trump’s Greatest Hits...Sleepy Joe, Crooked Hillary, the “Deep State Department” and etc. The stock market was steady, unemployment was…
I’ve read at least 3 scientific articles on the likelihood that CoVid-19 was “engineered” in a lab and the consensus was....it wasn’t. Through genomic testing they were able to definitively identify that CoViD-19 mutated from 2 different versions of other SARS viruses and most likely originated in Pangolins.
In fairness, he probably really isn’t hearing about all the people with symptoms who can’t get tested. Because he’s made a point of surrounding himself with people who would shield him from that information.
I do a lot of work with small nonprofits and you see a lot of similar things.
This article really scratched my itch for historical Larp-Failure, really well investigated and written.
I absolutely love the stories of larp-implosions. The history of larping is very sordid, and almost everyone has war stories at this point and larpers are nothing if not story tellers so everyone loves to tell them.

It’s amazing how many issues within Dziobak echo what I’ve seen at other LARPs, cons, and scene parties. Charismatic people with unrealistic ambition abusing the passions and naivete of marginalized nerds to create fantasy spaces...it keeps happening and is so frustrating.
Gamestop is still open and claiming that they’re essential for the functioning of the country! They must think they’re the corporate equivalent of rosie the riveter, just doing what they can to play their part. I mean where else will people be able to buy funko pop figurines and fortnite gift cards?!!
It’s disgusting that the small, independent businesses were all first to send me e-mails about “making the difficult but responsible decision” to temporarily shut down and make assurances they would pay their staff. Only when local and state government gave orders to shut down did chain stores take losses or show any…
Peak, peak, peak corporate white manning.
Why do I suspect that this dude, as well as the company’s governing board, are going to get their usual bonuses this year?
