Scrooge: A Christmas Carol (2022) is the worst adaptation I’ve ever seen. Gives “an AI made this” vibes despite being made prior to the advent of AI video generation. Turns out people can make slop too

cannot begin to tell you how happy I am to have stumbled upon the Paris building shared by metal music fans and the union for metal workers, what a delight

Twin Cities- it’s day 6 of the federal occupation.

Today’s assignment:

1. Keep defending our neighbors. We are hearing inspiring stories every day of abductions disrupted.

2. Check on your neighbors who may be terrified.

3. Spend some money in an immigrant owned business.

Minneapolis rules, the Somali community here is part of the reason why, and I offer an extremely unpolite fuck you to any half-dozing grandpa who says otherwise

There's a couple reasons so many IWW songs are set to the tunes of hymns and one is that the Salvation Army Band would show up and try to stop workers organizing by playing hymns to drown out speeches, so the Wobblies came up with words so they could sing along. SA has been trash all along.
It's that giving time of year again, so this is a reminder that no matter how they try to dress it up, the Salvation Army is not a charity.

Just watched THE ISLAND (2005), which is a good remake / mashup of other dystopian engineering-genetic-perfection movies for the first hour of its 132min runtime, then rapidly Michael Bays

In the game of “what else can we do to humiliate and demonize our own citizens,” this regime never misses a trick

Chicago may experience less tear gas use as Operation Midway Blitz winds down. Cold and wet weather reduce effectiveness, while wind adds unpredictability.
Wind, cold temps can change the impact of tear gas and pepper balls, experts say

I’m not saying energetic, principled younger people are for sure going to save things; I am saying that cowardly old ones have already failed.
This deal to reopen the government is fucking disgraceful.

Tens of millions will lose their healthcare. Trump will be emboldened.

This is exactly what’s wrong with Democratic Party leadership and why we need more people in Congress who will actually hold the line.

disgusting, craven, abjectly invertebrate
Senators on the brink of retirement who lived full, wealthy lives and never feared the loss of their own healthcare voting for their constituents to die from their inability to afford the same is treasonous

agreeing to make a terrible deal while your main opponent is quite literally being boo'd on live tv by an entire stadium of people is the kind of political instinct you'd normally only find in a 3 week old dead goldfish

I’m actually not an ideologue, I just think all human beings deserve a shot at a joyful and purposeful existence, and the fact that this puts me so firmly aligned with the left says a lot about the other side
