The First Amendment At Work

Attorney General Pam Bondi warned Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) to “tread very carefully” following the lawmaker’s recent remarks voicing support for Elon Musk to be “taken down,” Politico reports.

Said Bondi: “She is an elected public official, so she needs to tread very carefully because nothing will happen to Elon Musk, and we’re going to fight to protect all of the Tesla owners throughout this country.”

Two Months into the Enshittification of America:

Some of you reading this will say that that's ridiculous, that there's this or that law that will protect citizens, that I'm being hyperbolic for the sake of being hyperbolic. To which I can only say, calmly, without malice, "Then you haven't been paying attention, you poor, naive motherfucker. Look at how far we've fallen in just two months. Now ask yourself where we'll be in six months. Or a year."

Oh, and spare me the cries of "That's our government, not us. Don't blame us." Until we are out there shutting shit down and using our bodies to block this government from doing such fuckery, it is us. That's the burden we all need to bear. It's all being done in our name. Every act by the government is done in our name. And that's why this shit is eating away at me.

What gets that acid churning even more intensely is that so many of us warned the leaders on our side: You have to punish motherfuckers for fucking mothers or they'll just fuck more mothers and fuck them harder. They didn't arrest the bastards who created the torture regime and the habeas-free zone at Gitmo in the Bush administration. They slow-walked the prosecution of Donald Trump because of fear of seeming vengeful. Now that the bad guys got away with so very much, fuck it, they believe they're gonna get away with it again. And it's hard to blame them.

"I really Don't Care. Do U?"

Bring on the barbarism! I have lists longer than both my arms of people on whom I'd love to perform barbarous acts. Why should I care about people who don't care about me?

How is it that these pieces of shit can murder w/ impunity on the world stage, yet this reporter isn't even allowed to threaten the scum that make his life miserable? Mostly landlords, from Trump on down. Let's try killing the landlords rather than murdering innocent civilians. (Not that anyone is actually innocent, of course.)

Musk/Trump To America: Eat Shit & Die, Old Poor Losers

In The Grand Republican Tradition

Leah Willingham / Associated Press:

In West Virginia coal country, new Social Security barriers present challenges to the most vulnerable  —  Veronica Taylor doesn't know how to turn on a computer, let alone use the internet. The 73-year-old can't drive and is mostly housebound in her mountainous and remote West Virginia community, where a simple trip to the grocery store can take an hour by car.

New requirements that Social Security recipients access key benefits online or in person at a field office, rather than on the phone, would be nearly impossible to meet without help.

“If that’s the only way I had to do it, how would I do it?” Taylor said, talking about the changes while eating a plate of green beans, mac and cheese and fried fish with a group of retirees at the McDowell County Senior Center. “I would never get nothing done.”

[...]

Mary Weaver, 72, said she doesn’t approve of Trump giving Elon Musk so much leeway to cut and change services, and she doesn’t see those measures helping McDowell County.

“He gone run for president, and he’s going to get the presidency, but he’s going to let someone else tell him how to run the country?” she asked, criticizing Trump’s relationship with Musk.

Other residents aren’t concerned. Barbara Lester, 64, said she wishes she could sit down with Trump and Musk and tell them they’re doing a fantastic job.

“And with all the money they’re saving from the fraud, they could afford to give their senior citizens an increase,” said Lester, who is retired from construction work.

Indeed. Why don't you hold your breath until you're given an increase from all the "savings from the fraud". Funny, this reporter sure as hell doesn't remember any actual fraud being exposed. Ms. Lester might be a bit surprised to realize that she's the fraud they're talking about. After all, it's Elon's & Don's money too!

Gold Cloud

Psychedelic Saturday

A list: The 25 best psychedelic Classic Rock albums. Oh yeah? First, what is "Classic Rock"? (And why is it capitalized in the title?) Far as I can tell, it's simply music made in the 1960s by people mostly under 40. (There are no more classics*. Never were, really.)

Secondly, I understand it's a Limey list, but not listing Country Joe & The Fish's Electric Music for the Mind and Body (released 11 May 1967) is unforgivable idiocy, & possibly criminal.Most psychedelic moments: "Section 43", "Bass Strings" or "Death Sound Blues".

This reporter's prescription is to dose the entire world w/ some very strong acid & hope most of the humanoids see themselves for the empty vessels they are & decide to end it all before it's too late. Wasn't that the great fear of acid? That "the kids" would use it, see through the bullshit, realize there was no hope, & slit everyone's throat, Manson-style?

What pathetic pansies these people are. It might take a loser who can barely walk like Trump a while to get a hold of a rattle can, but neither coördination nor funding are required for an ordinary decent American to spray paint something. A bit of a hassle getting the wage slave at the store to unlock the spray can cage, but it can be done w/o much of a plan or too much money. Or is the nation's well-tagged railroad rolling stock a vast, well-funded conspiracy?

Next move should be to vandalize Tesla owners. After all, the fucking shitmobiles aren't the ones who voted Nazi.

Make no mistake about it: This is World War III, & it's being fought on the North American continent.

Tangier on 7 December 1941 (or at other times during the war) this reporter wouldn't exist!! It was a mere 83+ yrs. ago. How quickly they forget.
