(1/4) ICE detention has become a black box. Oversight has been gutted. Families are being separated. Pregnant and postpartum women report starving in custody, freezing cells, invasive procedures, miscarriages, and their pleas for help going unanswered.
Miscarriages, infections, neglect: The pregnant women detained by ICE
Until last year, Congress required reports on the pregnant, postpartum or nursing women in ICE custody, including ‘detailed justification’ for their detention. This requirement no longer exists, Kelly...

A reminder for those who are not aware: "remigration" is the process of deporting all non-white people from a country. It includes citizens and is, by definition, ethnic cleansing.
And to be clear: this is not fake. I just screenshot it myself.

Well, it's officially that time of year, so here's the piece I wrote for @riotfest.bsky.social in 2019 about why Christmas music is good, actually. There's a pretty good playlist at the bottom of the article, too.

If you're looking for a hate-read this Thanksgiving, this opinion piece is mercifully short but will still make you want to punch something. Its shitty prose and poor support for its thesis also gives easy fuel to its obvious counterpoint.

Don't know if I'm actually making a 2025 favorites list, but if I do, this is on it. I almost definitely won't do a RANKED list, but if I did, this would be right around the top spot. Great band and great folks.
Your response to Visible Light has been overwhelming. It’s been two months since our debut album has entered the world, and it means so much to see the music reaching people. Thank you for listening. visible-light.bandcamp.com/album/songs-...

In the pre-streaming days, even the best TV shows (Simpsons, Cheers, Twin Peaks, etc) would take awhile to refine their characters and find their stride. 'Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman' hit the ground at a proto-Lynchian sprint and rarely let up. It's Norman Lear's masterpiece. youtu.be/zQqHAWWKwcw?...

I have 99.9% boycotted Starbucks for 25 years because the company and their coffee has been ass the whole time, but I stand with the employees and support more mass actions!
Zohran Mamdani says that New York City stands with Starbucks employees!
He points out their CEO made 96 billion last year.
That’s 6,666 times the median Starbucks worker salary.
Boycott Starbucks. Support the workers. Demand they receive a living wage.

JD Vance owns a company that buys American real estate and sells it to foreign investors. They specifically target Americans in crisis to buy their property for less than it is worth.
JD Vance: "A lot of young people are saying housing is way too expensive. Why is that? Because we flooded the country with 30 million illegal immigrants who were taking houses that ought by right go to American citizens."

it doesn’t get any clearer that america’s betrothal to fossil fuels is about letting energy companies pick our pockets to prop up their obsolete industry
Australia has so much electricity from solar power that it is going to start offering free electricity to everyone for at least three hours during the day as the wholesale price of power goes negative

I more or less want to transition back into food/drink/bud service when I return to PDX next spring, but if I stay in marketing, I really hope it's with a company that has some semblance of structure or strategy in that department (btw, looking for work there next May if ya hear anything).

It has been positively KILLING me lately to not be back working where I belong: a cluttered, musty used record store. An infinite number of worse things happening in this broken world, I know, but it would still be nice if that one tiny wrong could be righted.

Was excited to have an eleventh hour guaranteed addition to my favorite music of 2025, but it's not actually out until January. Anyway, this is an unbeatable, heady lineup and I can't wait to hear the whole thing.

Last week, I indulged in the best deal in entertainment: $12 for all in-print minicomics from Matt Feazell's NOT AVAILABLE COMICS. It's a big stack, some stretching back to right before I was born. Eternally charming, and a MASSIVE influence on me since 1994.
