Internet muskox, queer person, economist & a bunch of other stuff. 40/any pronouns. Don't expect a cohesive brand from me. Please no begging/solicitation. I'm tired and poor as fuck.

Just to Start, since this is a member of my discipline either obfuscating the truth or forgetting it: The cost of shelter has risen much faster than the cost of the items used to measure inflation (usually a 'basket of goods')
Love the charts. I wish people were more curious about why people's lived reality doesn't match up with the charts, because nothing is more frustrating to poor people than feeling like they're being gaslit by exasperated Democrats
Everyone has utterly lost the plot about the actual material state of the economy. It's as if the last 4 years did not happen. Denial of the shape of the earth. There's really no other conclusion other than that nothing actually matters anymore. We're through the looking glass into pure vibes.

The German company that makes the mechanical ladder used in the Louvre heist has used the image to advertise, with the text 'When you need to move fast'

crazy how level design can have actual intention behind decisions to create certain encounters and not bringing in the original devs can mean you fuck up a lot of key moments!
Met someone new today that was so weirdly wrong about so many things I think I lost braincells listening to him, even if I didn't believe ta thing.

My unpopular take is that the government should mandate masked (respirators) shopping hours at essential grocery stores/pharmacies or provide a tax credit for delivery so disabled & immunopromised folks don't have to pay extra fees just to keep themselves safe and alive
(This thought brought to you by someone posting about KOSA (the modern US law project, not the man) and a kobold gunner in said style next to one another.)
I think the Ishiyama Hongan-ji/Ikko-Ikki style warrior monk musketeer/rifleman aesthetic is uniquely cool. I'm not sure if the style they're portrayed in matches what they were like in history, but... the form language is peak.

It’s so weird when people do the blood and soil thing about New York City, a place that more than just about anywhere else on earth was forged from a constant churn of newcomers
Moving to New York and pulling the ladder up behind myself, but wokely
There are too many people who still think Russia is communist, never mind acknowledging anything that's going on there. Especially on the left people are way too willing to trade in one fascism with another, just painted red.

My leftist controversial opinion is that the Russian Federation under Putin is a fascist, settler colonial state that is kept together through authoritarian rule and economic profits via petroleum and LNG exports.

I think a lot about the "war is hell" quote

Because a lot of yall play at revolution

You don't want to do the work, you just want to be there to take the screenshot
I'mma be real, revolution would maybe be good long-term but if it happens I know I'm toast. Most people don't have time for weak, injured or sick people in peacetime, never mind while fighting a war, civil or otherwise.

My actual hope is that the peoples' power is enough of a threat without acting

First off, it's a province, not a state

second, and most importantly, the *Ontario ad* didn't "roil" the trade relationship. Trump tore it up, like he did with literally every country on the planet. Wtf is this copy.

Just because Russia is anti-American hegemony does not magically make them into the good guys, when they terror bomb Ukrainian cities on a daily basis.

It’s also worth mentioning that Israel and Russia have had very warm relations over the past decade, particularly between Netanyahu and Putin.
It amazes me that some ppl are still pro-Ukraine but also pro-Palestine.

No shock at all to see an evil Z!0fk like Zach that is pro-Ukraine & pro-Israel tho. Those positions represent all that a fker like that would want, and totally in-line with the US and German governments, which should inform.

Pro-Israel talking points are basically contingent upon you never reading about anything that has ever happened. It is not like we revolted against the British in 1936, or were immediately suppressed politically by the Jordanians from 48 to 67 or engaged in civil war in 71, or fought Egypt in Gaza.

All my life I was told I was Jewish, I was stopped by Hasids on the streets asking me to wrap Tefillin, I was invited to Jewish holidays from strangers, etc.

The ONLY time I’ve been told I’m NOT a real Jew is when I criticize Israel.

Go fuck yourself Alex
Will I remember to do it in the morning tomorrow? Sources point to Maybe, man.
