Sometimes I remember how it came up that Brett Kavanaugh had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on baseball tickets and it turned out to just be a rich white person thing instead of money laundering.

As in he bought season tickets in good seats for his family and several other families who then reimbursed him their balance. Because it's easier to have dozens of tickets all in one name so you can invite guests when some people can't make it, rather than tracking a bunch of different accounts.

4 Sybians is kind of excessive.

Yeah this was the chart (or similar) I mentioned in the other thread. Cis women generally better than Cis men in these sort of polls (I think it's reflected in the heterosexual women versus men too when shown).

Also as mentioned, broadly putting down transgender people doesn't reflect that sometimes people's intolerance is different depending on if it's a trans woman, a trans man or someone who is non-binary/gender non-conforming etc.

Leslie Feinberg was a Marxist-Leninist, while she doesn't explicitly reference dialectical-materialism as much in her works like Trans Liberation or her fiction Stone Butch Blues, Rainbow Solidarity : in Defense of Cuba though does study Cuba's LBGT history through a historical materialistic lense.

The others have given more concrete examples, so I'll skip that and simply say that contradictions are resolved through practice. As in we can talk about the problems and solutions all day, but it only when we start to actually make the changes, do we create and engage with the problems and develop solutions in response.

Putting it in the fridge so I can fry it tomorrow.

I'm no longer a listener of True Anon and I'm more ambivalent to Brace Belden these days, but I thought his band was doing a poorly though out photo shoot about punks betting up Nazis and specific photos were taken out of context?

I think it's going be Landlocked but maybe not as deeply North.

Pyrrhus (brought to the future by time machine): Hey it's me Greek King and generally considered one of the best Ancient Generals of all time, do you guys still remember me?

Me: Yeah we even named a type of victory after you.

Pyrrhus: Neat. Is it a good victory?

Me: ...

I've eaten, drunken water and pooped. The situation is improving.

Someone bought me a coffee at work, which was a very nice gesture, but I am a finally tuned machine and this has indirectly ruined my day, I'm so anxious, my tummy hurts and I feel shaky.
