I'm just a guy who has obsessively made things for 30 years so what do I know, but I'd think factories take longer to build than the President of the United States seems to believe.

Wisconsin fought and clawed to get out from under the thumb of the Kochs and Uihleins who had bought and paid for gerrymandered Republican dominance for years. And then another rich motherfucker showed up and the whole state said not today.

My nine-year-old is fully invested in Booker's speech. Just got home from school and is completely amazed that he's still going. Knows he's witnessing something real.

I didn't really need more reasons to hate Manchester City, but they have some kind DaFont Simpsons knockoff on their jersey today.

The Residence was excellent from start to finish. The writing was tight and smart, Uzo Aduba was fucking incredible, and Giancarlo Esposito continues to be one of the very best to do the thing.

Hey take a minute to pause from doomscrolling and read about Year 11 of Punk Planet, a year where it's legitimately impossible for me to believe how much we did. Issues! Books! A whole new magazine! So. Many. Things. dansinker.com/posts/202...

It's genuinely insane to me how much MORE relevant Rebel Spirit has become since Season One ended. You a story about the repercussions of erasing history and about what it takes to try and get people to face the truth about the past? And also Gritty? We've got you: rebelspiritpodcast.com
