I really hate podcasts that are actual news. I am begging you, if you have a podcast that is real journalism, please release some form of written component. I don't care if you just post a transcription. I don't really feel like listening to it and I just want to read.

in victorian times it was incredibly tempting to say "nice hat, dumbass" to anyone wearing a goofy hat. the british boarding school system was designed to beat this natural instinct out of the next generation of hat-wearers

This is a publicly funded industry, proof that the U.S. can create jobs programs and design industrial policy when it wants to, but only substantially does so for the purpose of war and violence.

this part I also didn't get but then I saw an NBC anchor goggling open mouthed like a 12 year who just saw boobs for the first time because the Iranian foreign minister was like"yes we will fight if you invade" and they really don't think of other people as having any sort of agency, it's wild

Trump is continuing his crusade of erasure at our parks. This time, removing films that tell the history of women and immigrant labor organizing against terrible conditions at the Lowell Mills. Trump cannot erase the truth. Watch one of the films now on my YouTube:

To take this seriously a sec: when your political-economic system allows massive inequality to explode, it creates a class of people who have no material problems but do have the resources & power to make their trivial irritations the central business of politics—at immense material cost to others.

When I visited Florida I went swimming in this lagoon which I didn't know was off limits because it was home to the state's largest sea cow. So I got charged with a crime against huge manatee.
