There are worse things to name your car than “Liam Nissan”.

You know what’d be a really niche parody? Metallica’s “Harvester of Sorrow” about the manager at a Sbarro’s.

When you first hear people acting like exposure to deadly respiratory infection is a sign of toughness and freedom, it sounds crazy, but remember people around here think carrying murder buttons into Starbucks is a sign of the same. It’s all the same stupid cruelty.

They say they’re being “apolitical” by AMC not demanding people wear masks into their theatres but, for God’s sake, at least admit it’s because you think it would cut down on people buying 35 dollar Sprites. We’re not THAT stupid.

If you’re only gonna sell ponchos anyway, may as well call the place Poncho Villa.

Oh, the LAPD just gunned down a brother of the lynching victim in Palmdale. Nothing to see here, folks, move along, move along, we’ve always been at war with Eastasia.

People talk about “rights” so much and rarely about their responsibilities to each other in a society. Without our responsibilities to each other as the underpinnings of society, the lattice upon which those rights hang collapses like candyfloss in a cloudburst.

The confederacy, the Nazis, the post-modern conservative movement, they’re all the same. The higher-ups justify their greed & corruption by making hate their grift, the rank-and-file forgive the greed & corruption because it advances their hate. That’s the ballgame.
