Biannual tradition of going to the record store on the last day of the semester

Been thinking about this every day
this Kennedy Center situation is definitely a desecration…. but it also feels like a bit of a champagne problem next to all the mass internments, military war footing, and FBI rebooting COINTELPRO

periodically I'll see a backlash that goes a little too far or seems kinda unfair. i never say anything because i think we need to be kinda unhinged and zealous in our response to this shit. I'd take an honest-to-God crusade against this stuff over letting it proliferate.
We can do even more.

Really tired of ordering something on ebay to have it sent to me via amazon.
I’m boycotting that shit, that’s why I didn’t order it from them in the first place

Of all the arrogant shit this mf has done…
"The Donald Trump administration has changed which holidays qualify for free entrance to national parks, removing two holidays celebrating Black people and adding the president’s birthday."
National parks change prioritizes Trump birthday over days honoring Black people
Free entrance days at national parks no longer include MLK Day and Juneteenth.

Just think what we'd find out about Bi-State Development Agency dba Metro if State Auditor & City Comptroller did regular audits of interstate compact. Bi-State fights audits, claims no one has authority over them.
