That’s the question! These are satellite images from the notorious El Salvadorian prison from 2024. The image is viral online with people claiming this is a pile of bodies and blood, but that’s unsubstantiated (and the image is from before Trump took office). Another idea is that it’s a pile of construction materials and clay.

I’m ready for the general strike. That’s our power.

But we’re all being smothered in their nut stained beds, brother. For them to lie in their beds would be to accept retaliation of their party and fight back, not to take it. They deserve the flak but are seemingly not brave enough to save us all.

Now we have drug-resistant candida to add to the list. Yay.

Shostakovich for creepy and delightfully screechy evening music.

Mussorgsky for chill and ponderous weekend morning music.

Brahms when I want to sit and sway.

I mentioned it in another comment, but palak paneer pizza includes both mozzarella AND squeaky paneer cheese. It’s great. I agree about the feta: “different cheese” is important.

Palak paneer! Baltimore, queen of Indian Pizza. Someone on here mentioned feta – try some squeaky paneer, instead! This gem really needs to be made elsewhere.

Cool!!!

Speaking of NC… Jeff Jackson needs more attention.

This is what we need to be talking about as a country right now. How do we open up the political binary to include viable third parties? Does that require proportional representation? Does that require a parliamentary system?

I know in NC getting a third party on the ballot requires signatures and a portion of the vote in the previous election. Those bars are too high and risky. What is another path?

Maybe announcing a new party is premature, but at least talking about steps to realistically forming one would be huge. We need a revolutionary overhaul of our 2-party political system, and I posit that most Americans, those that voted and those who didn’t, would agree that 2 bad options is not a real choice.

The binary creates the illusion of choice.

Sorry, I’m asking about the (non)significance of the strangely colored letters

noBODY ElectED ELON
BODY E ED ELON

I appreciate this, but putting that aside I need to ask about the colors. What is EED…?

Here, don’t stop! It’s endless scroll meets wiki: https://wikitok.vercel.app/

Mug from Hotspot, probably. It’s actually pretty great though.

Did you ever talk about it with them? Definitely sounds like an inconsiderate joke. Flabbergasting that they managed to follow through enough to get it posted to you.

Maybe it got “porch pirated”. I thought I was immune from that until my things started disappearing.

Did you hang it up?

You also aren’t directly supporting what’s basically slave labor. Thrift is a way of life, as well as a moral philosophy.

When I can’t thrift it, I buy it USA made. I probably even out to what other people spend on new clothes.

Deadlifts fixed my back pain completely. Ymmv.
