who creates the lively art and music scenes if the rent is too high? who makes cultural life? who serves you food or washes your dishes? who creates the fancy little restaurants that draw you to urban living? affordable housing is at the heart of what makes city life worthwhile.

The White House Antifa Roundtable is one of the best displays I’ve seen of this-is-how-bad-it’s-gotten — just a sewer of open fascism, dementia, morons and freaks, and incoherent rage.

On this day in 1984, #ThisMortalCoil released their debut album "It'll End In Tears". Technically classed as a band, This Mortal Coil was a loose collection of artists on the legendary #4AD label, coordinated by founder #IvoWattsRussell.
