One hot take I’m always mentioning to my uninitiated friends is that I’m over the moon when the second sons and daughters of our nobility use their money and power to become artists instead of executives and that line of argument has appeared compelling, effective

Fargo, he’s from that family lol the bank wells-Fargo it took me a decade to notice

If I were the crew they’d’ve had to load me into that ship at gunpoint

June 10 wasn’t Friday?

What’s makes the threat of nuclear annihilation more pressing now than say, the back half of the 20th century?

I got a job I don’t hate so I’m happy to be up. However, everyday I still awake in the uSSa

I had figured the onion’s been dead since condenast or whoever bought them but this is an unexpected low. A punch in the gut, their website and videos affirmed my nascent concerned-lib phase while I was growing up in a firmly conservative, racist, and overall bigoted suburb

Something is different this time around media wise, I remain cynical is regards to these types of stories, but maybe they’re indicative of Israel’s fall in the near future

No I mean, I agree, I’d love it if there were a considerable cadre of radicalizing officers, but that’s not what I’m seeing. I’m also not casting an unforgivable sin or whatever on anybody, I’m just giving them shit. The only issue I have are these pieces about dissenting individuals that never amount to anything

"If you are somebody who is really motivated by the concern to protect Jewish life," Mann said, "you should be fighting for [Israel] to wind down the war, to conduct it in a way that does not turn basically the whole world against them. That is not good for the near- or long-term security of Israel."

You can quote the scripture all you want but hardly anyone else who gains a conscience gets a major news outlet story published about them. The quote I pulled from the article here demonstrates, to me anyway, that if Israel was a mere 5% less genocidal he would’ve held on to his post. This guy worked for the Middle East bureau and now I’d wager he’s gonna go work for some private defense contractor of some sort. He does some sort of minor protest that won’t impact anything and now we aren’t allowed to call him a pig on the internet?

It’s a shame Israel’s conduct has taken such a sharp turn I’m sure things were different back when this bastion of morality signed up

The New York dems didn’t deliver on a promise? Really? This is the first time I’m hearing this.

We should at least get to manage his and his family’s assets as a conservatorship for a few generations

it's good that you found advice like that. rick rubin's book is a load of shit and in interviews he's saying shit like 'maybe your job is your livelihood and your art is secondary' basically telling ppl to strive for less straight up, not even veiling it in a myth which is incredible considering he threw his entire life into helping ppl create music

to some extent it does, however, it used to be a bit easier to scrape by and have a roof over your head, hangout with your friends, and hone one's craft in america. There are a lot of stories where someone worked at a bakery, recorded there after. Another where two guys bought a small place to put a studio together in Portland, just a lot of shit like that. The walls have closed way, way in.
