I saw you post about the black soldiers coming back home from WW2. Found this video and thought about it. It's a WW2 training video that was supposed to warn white US soldiers not to flip out if they saw Europeans treating black soldiers like human beings.

All things considered, it's not as bad as you would think for something from that era.

Gonna give it a watch later. Yeah that whole situation was fucked, and a reason why smaller African American enclaves exist in various parts of Europe. They would have long since assimilated by now, but European fascination with blackness was found to be significantly more preferable than Jim Crow and getting fucked over more.

Greg, on your day off make breakfast sandwiches, wrap in paper towel, put in freezer bag, freeze and reheat. It takes 20 minutes even if you are moron.
 
I love coming back here after the weekend and trying to figure out wtf happened

Hard to say. I don’t track it so my estimate could be way off. Also, there’s retreads that are ban on sight that could tip the scales a lot. I don’t think it’s too imbalanced but 2 to 1 is possible. What’s focused on more is the specific instances and if we are handling them in a relatively consistent fashion over time. We aren’t looking for some clean 50/50 quota on bans via ideology.

Just started, still in Phase 2. I've actually been mocked by drunk tourists for wearing a mask. Outside of a few locals and the entirety of the protests pretty much no one is wearing one.
I'm still not back at work yet, hopefully soon though. The first round of tourists are fucking obnoxious though I'll tell you that.

Still not sure how I feel about it. I'll tell you after I reflect on the 157th listen.

Protest anthems are kind of a thing of mine. I can't stop listening to it. It's perfect for the current climate.

Got a Vonnegut punch for your Atlas shrugs
They love to not love it's just that dumb
Lord, sweet Buddha please make me numb
Brain bounce off walls like a sentient Roomba
Just found out his creator's stupid
Lit by the supermoon, I'm too lucid
Plus got shrooms in the blood, I'm zoomin'
Beep beep, Richie, this is New York City
The X on the map where the pain keep hitting
Just us ducks here sitting
Where murderous chokehold cops still earnin' a livin'
Funny how some say money don't matter
That's rich now, isn't it, get it? Comedy
Try to sell a pack a smokes to get food
Get killed and it's not an anamoly
But hey, it's just money
Mastered economics 'cause you took yourself from squalor (slave, yeah)
Mastered academics 'cause your grades say you a scholar (slave)
Mastered Instagram 'cause you can instigate a follow (shit, yeah)
Look at all these slave masters (yeah-yeah)
Let it sink in (yeah)

As someone currently recovering from two ear infections, I find this violent post disturbing and now feel the need for a safe space

Gorsuch wrote the majority opinion on the court ruling.

Alito and Kav both wrote dissenting opinions.

You can find them on the SCOTUS website but I'm reading on twitter that the website crashed due to the amount of traffic.

Here's a couple of snippets.







 
So G-man (no way I’ll ever learn how to spell it) says and can differentiate between the actual law and his own opinion.

I don't think so. Longbranch I'm pretty sure is the gun nut fella whose claim to fame is when using a prior account enthusiastically claiming that Canada won't be able to put together a good hockey team because of Muslim immigrants. I honestly don't understand how people can be that stupid.

We missing any sherdogger from the Riots threads?



Man saw two men in his neighborhood in masks (ya know, cause Covid) and thought they were Antifa. Got himself decked out in tacticool gear and a rifle and held them at gunpoint until police showed up.

The men were from a roofing company looking for hail damage from a recent storm to try and offer their business to homeowners affected.

Other neighbors did admit they thought the two walking through their neighborhood was suspicious, but that this Gudmusden guy didn’t have to go action movie on them.

There used to be a lot of that (complaints) a few years back but I think it mostly died off at this point. I think some of it was a handful of instigators where the intention was to get that narrative across whether or not they saw it happening or saw staff try to accommodate/ address their complaints. That’s mostly what the purge was. I don’t really see a lot of complaints lately now but I think we as staff have gotten way better in aligning and stating the key rules that could get people in trouble.

Bill Russell strongly agrees.

When the Celtics retired his Jersey he made sure t would be a private ceremony because he didn't want the fans to be apart of it.

My take on Boston racism is that the city isn't more racist than any other similarly sized city, but somehow the biggest assholes somehow manage to get prime season tickets every year.
