The authoritarian takover of the state bureaucracy might not *sound* like a big deal. But SCOTUS giving Trump the ability to fire the federal government is a God-King power, and represents a failure of the American Revolution.

The Supreme Court Is About to Give Trump His Crony State

Decided to make it five signed books, not three, I'm giving away to people who share this.
Because my thieving ex-publishers can fuck off.
Because I believe this book is good enough to be read and enjoyed for many years.
Because it's the only pension I'll have.
And because why fucking not.

I've removed the paywall permanently from this piece, which is a chapter from my novel Villager, told entirely in the form of an online village message board. If you like it, you'll probably like the book. If you don't, you won't...

The Village Message Board
Its authenticity was discredited because of his reputation, but also because he was quick with gin at the time and wearing an item of knitwear back to front.

It’s kind of incredible that The Onion’s aiming to surpass the Washington Post in print circulation but I’m here for it.
Here's a note I sent to our members about what we did with their money, and why we expect the Onion to outgrow the Washington Post.
We keep doing weird, hard shit — taunting ICE, yelling at Congress for not taunting ICE, buying bad websites — when nobody else does.
Our members keep getting papers.

As SNAP benefits are cut, this should be something we demand of state governors to do with their states national guard.
Food banks & other forms of community aid will feel the stress caused by these cuts. There will undoubtedly be understaffing and shortages, this is one way we can prepare for this
