I've seen Americans rightly point out how weird it was that their media, business, and public institutions immediately acted as if Trump's narrow election win meant **everyone** was an eager fascist now.
It's even weirder that Britain's institutions did exactly the same. Wasn't even our election.

I think Dopethrone would be considered a greater LP if it didn't nearly share a name with a genre defining LP but it is still brilliant to power through the cold dark countryside to

When we were gadding about Brussels we kept talking to people at protests about Arizona, we eventually found out it was as the parties in the coalition implementing the austerity colours match that state flag: this is a) a very high level of vexology & b) designed to enrage @lilouzovert.bsky.social
