This is a lawyer's reaction to the execution of Alex Pretti... It's very emotional but I encourage folks to watch this and other videos from Legal Eagle.

It's an organization led by a person who casually killed their dog. Of course it's staffed with employees who casually kill civilians.

The image is a poster with a bold message painted in large, green, brushstroke-style letters on a dark background. It reads: “FIGHT POVERTY NOT THE POOR” The style is raw and expressive, conveying urgency and social activism. At the bottom, it includes the text “Poor People’s Campaign | poorpeoplescampaign.org” and credits the design to Jesse Purcell, 2017.

was mostly keeping it together until I read Kyle MacLachlan's tribute to David Lynch
"Forty-two years ago, for reasons beyond my comprehension, David Lynch plucked me out of obscurity to star in his first and last big budget movie. He clearly saw something in me that even I didn’t recognize. I owe my entire career, and life really, to his vision. What I saw in him was an enigmatic and intuitive man with a creative ocean bursting forth inside of him. He was in touch with something the rest of us wish we could get to. Our friendship blossomed on Blue Velvet and then Twin Peaks and I always found him to be the most authentically alive person I’d ever met. David was in tune with the universe and his own imagination on a level that seemed to be the best version of human. He was not interested in answers because he understood that questions are the drive that make us who we are. They are our breath. While the world has lost a remarkable artist, I’ve lost a dear friend who imagined a future for me and allowed me to travel in worlds I could never have conceived on my own. I can see him now, standing up to greet me in his backyard, with a warm smile and big hug and that Great Plains honk of a voice. We’d talk coffee, the joy of the unexpected, the beauty of the world, and laugh. His love for me and mine for him came out of the cosmic fate of two people who saw the best things about themselves in each other. I will miss him more than the limits of my language can tell and my heart can bear. My world is that much fuller because I knew him and that much emptier now that he’s gone. David, I remain forever changed, and forever your Kale. Thank you for everything."

...unless that difference is rooted in intolerance.
If man is to survive, he will learn to take delight in the essential differences between cultures. To learn that differences in ideas and attitudes are a delight, part of life's exciting variety, not something to fear. - Gene Roddenberry ...unless that difference is rooted in intolerance.

"There is no coming to consciousness without pain. People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own soul. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious."

Useful for everyone worrying about a billionaire buying the site. It's not that it can't happen, it's that it's less likely because the value of a captive audience will not be here.

Also, I would pay for a subscription here if it helped subsidize a free tier as well.

Everybody knows...
Everybody knows that the dice are loaded, everybody rolls with their fingers crossed, everybody knows the war is over, everybody knows the good guys lost. Everybody knows the fight is fixed, the poor stay poor and the rich get rich. That's how it goes... Everybody knows. - Leonard Cohen
