That time Dr. Seuss' wife wrote a book about how a little boy and his grandpa 'make machines work' to exploit the natural environment for short-term gains🤪 🪓

I never had a Spotify subscription, but I’m spreading the word of the boycott. Any outfit advertising for ICE needs to be frozen out.

“Grocery stores throw out far more food than is shoplifted. Why don't shoplifters just take the food from the dumpster then. Because they have cameras on the dumpsters and security will be sent out when they see them on the monitors.” ~ mastodon.social/@AlSweigart/...

Grapes of Wrath 1939:

The works of the roots of the vines, of the trees, must be destroyed to keep up the price, and this is the saddest, bitterest thing of all.
Carloads of oranges dumped on the ground. The people came for miles to take the fruit, but this could not be. How would they buy oranges at twenty cents a dozen if they could drive out and pick them up? And men with hoses squirt kerosene on the oranges, and they are angry at the crime, angry at the people who have come to take the fruit. A million people hungry, needing the fruit- and kerosene sprayed over the golden mountains.
And the smell of rot fills the country.
Burn coffee for fuel in the ships. Burn corn to keep warm, it makes a hot fire. Dump potatoes in the rivers and place guards along the banks to keep the hungry people from fishing them out. Slaughter the pigs and bury them, and let the putrescence drip down into the earth.
There is a crime here that goes beyond denunciation. There is a sorrow here that weeping cannot symbolize. There is a failure here that topples all our success. The fertile earth, the straight tree rows, the sturdy trunks, and the ripe fruit. And children dying of pellagra must die because a profit cannot be taken from an orange. And coroners must fill in the certificate- died of malnutrition- because the food must rot, must be forced to rot.
The people come with nets to fish for potatoes in the river, and the guards hold them back; they come in rattling cars to get the dumped oranges, but the kerosene is sprayed. And they stand still and watch the potatoes float by, listen to the screaming pigs being killed in a ditch and covered with quick-lime, watch the mountains of oranges slop down to a putrefying ooze; and in the eyes of the people there is the failure; and in the eyes of the hungry there is a growing wrath. In the souls of the people the grapes of wrath are filling and growing heavy, growing heavy for the vintage.

I skimmed the 60 Mins transcript. They edited out some of the crazier shit he said, and his glee about Bari Weiss and CBS’s “new ownership.” But Norah O’Donnell also just let him ramble and deflect and say crazy lies uninterrupted. In other democracies, interviewers don’t tolerate that.

The UK doesn't have an immigration problem, it has a racism problem and it's getting worse.

I bet I can find a way to never open #Spotify again. Not my first rodeo. I've cancelled tons of big platforms. Totally doable. Often fun

Reminder that Spotify has still not gotten rid of their ICE ads. They think they can just stay silent without answering to the public. Let’s show them how wrong they are, let’s hit them where it hurts! These corporations don’t understand anything unless it hurts their bottom line.

Trump “has dismantled much of the institutional and professional expertise needed to effectively manage US interests throughout [Asia-Pacific]. The officials who remain are loyal to the president, rather than to their oath of office.”

I don’t like that the US threw away global power, but it has.

Tom Pepinsky @tompepinsky.com · 14h

Want to read what I really think about the Trump administration and the Asia Pacific? Here you go. It’s a goddamn catastrophe for U.S. national interests and for the regional economic and diplomatic order.

A United States that is disintegrating and no longer a leader in Asia

As Trump 2.0 hollows out US state capacity, the Asia Pacific must prepare for a world without US leadership

The president’s interview on 60 Minutes is on now. He said he could send the military into US cities if he wanted to by using the Insurrection Act, and that no one could stop him.
Heaven please help us.

it's utterly wild how the Heritage Foundation president talks about other people

if you found a guy talking like this outside, you'd probably call the cops

But here’s the most uncomfortable truth of all: the parasites that have taken over so much of our country—pantsuited girlboss advertising executives, Skittle-haired they/them activists, soy-faced pajama-clad work-from-home HR apparatchiks, Adderall-addicted dog mom diversity consultants, nasally voiced Ivy League regulatory lawyers, obese George Soros–funded police abolitionist district attorneys, hipster trust fund socialists—are some of the least impressive people in the history of the world. The Uniparty would never have achieved what it has in this country without a great degree of rottenness, of decadence, of torpor, of complacency already

I see that CBS chose not to air this part. It probably explains much of what they did decide to air.

Sweet. Easy congressional inquiry in 2027.

Who is drafting the pardon paperwork? Who is briefing him before he signs them? What ethics checks are being done before these pardons are being drafted?

Is he actually even signing? Are these all auto pen?

O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?

TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is

O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it
