Conservatives desperately want cultural supremacy and yet they are incapable of producing art. I don't even mean great or good art, I mean "works that are arguably artistic." Every cultural artifact they produce in any medium is instantly recognizable as vapid, disposable, and unworthy of attention.
Also, he purged the Kennedy Center of a collection of African art that was given in tribute to JFK, but he installed this, from the Tony Montana Meets Saddam Hussein Collection.

This is obviously such cowardly loser behavior but I do wish that if anyone ever tried to make me do a work task I wasn't into, I could just leave for several months while continuing to collect a salary.
BREAKING: The House is going home again—this time to avoid a vote on Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s impeachment.

“Umm actually, my graph says I’m allowed to be racist!”
You can't really talked about migration and deportations in Germany. That gets you cancelled. So people don't talk about it and vote AfD instead. That's the basic issue and goes far beyond Sachsen-Anhalt, which is why yesterday's AfD win is so important...

a lot of people want to believe that right-wing beliefs are rooted in some legitimate material grievance. that makes it easier to imagine that if we simply solved the material problem, they’d deradicalize. but they won’t, because they aren’t disillusioned, they’re just morons.
I know this is a common belief, but it’s not true. If people went anti-vaxx/MAHA because they were excluded from the medical establishment, we would see sky-high rates among poor people, minorities and the uninsured. We don’t.

The famous Battle of Cable Street in 1936 - people assume the Left fought with Mosley's fascists that day - but in fact the pitched battle was fought between the Left and the police. The cops were trying to clear the streets so the Fascists could march through the Jewish East End. They lost. Badly.

Sure, and I can tell you that the police know who all of these guys are, not least because they’ve had to fight them on the street multiple times. The cops in Scotland know exactly who all our fascist protestors are, where they live and what their seat number at Ibrox is.

The big fella is really hitting the Unconscious In An Open Parachute stance strongly here. It's been some time since he broke this one out.
He’s got that box thing making the back of his suit jacket stick out again. Maybe some enterprising journalist could ask what’s going on with that? Is it a tactical diaper or something else?

It's very bad that we've developed a new dominant breed of debate pervert who spends their entire lifecycle insisting nobody will let them say the things they've said a thousand times and insisting everyone has to have the same debate with them every single time

This must be the third video of wonderful voices singing global scales I have seen, and each is mesmerising and has taught me things I didn't know. Such as: That these scales exist and how they, the bare backbone of tunes, reflect and unlock whole world regions' music. This is amazing.
