Read every word.
Sharing these stories is important. Everyone needs to be confronted with what our government is doing to people.
it really can't be said enough that this is a person who has dined with the president of the united states
So much cruelty for cruelty’s sake. It’s all just so sickening.
Democrats do not want this! Federal police terrorizing citizens is not compatible with democracy! Abolish and prosecute is the only way.
I wrote about my childhood friend Alexi Pretti. Please read it and share it and remember him as a human being. @theverge.com
You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

I love Heartworn Highways, which several people here mentioned. I finally saw Pulp: A Film about Life, Death, and Supermarkets recently and it was fun!

Way to focus on what’s important, NYT. Talk about failing to meet the moment. Just a disgrace.
Almost too real to be funny. Fuck the NYT.
