Pissing on food is bad, but check out "The Assassination of Fred Hampton" by Jeffrey Haas. And to show that nothing has changed since 1969, read "I Can't Breathe" by Matt Taibbi. For details of the Black Panther Party ideology, check out "To Die for the People" by Huey Newton.
Holy shit - I’m researching the Black Panthers’ free breakfast program for a piece. Apparently, the night before the project kicked off in Chicago, cops broke into the church and peed on all the food that was supposed to be served to local kids. What absolute fucking assholes

The Huey Newton book, I can't recommend this highly enough. The guy was a brilliant intellectual, reading his book was a life-changer for me.
Saya di Jakarta. Saya sudah di sini selama sebulan. Berdasarkan apa yang saya lihat di sini Jokowi akan memenangkan ini. Tidak ada yang lebih pasti.

I'm back in Beijing again. The locals here love wearing clothing with weird English phrases on them. Saw one today, dude with a very fashionable coat with the words emblazoned on the front: "I'M HIGH AND YOU'RE STILL A CUNT". Awesome.

And another one today, chick at the bank I'm working for with a very cute roll-neck sweater, on the front the words: "SADO-MASO". Love it. I gotta find out where to source this stuff.
So many adulatory articles on George Bush. Besides the fact that they're all total bullshit, I wonder why the writers didn't publish these things when he was still alive? I'm sure he would have greatly appreciated it.

Not really deserving of all that adulation after all. theintercept.com/2018/12/01/…

“I can see the lights of the cars on the Harbor Freeway, they never stop, that roll of lights, on and on. All those people. What are they thinking? We're all going to die, all of us, what a circus! That alone should make us love each other but it doesn't -Bukowski

I love this photo. 1970: Co-founder of the Black Panthers meets co-founder of the People's Republic of China.
Ducked out from my Beijing hotel room for some beers. Came back, some chick hanging around outside my room. I said 你好, she said 你好. Went to go in my room, she stops me, types into her phone translation app, showed me the english: "the police will come to your room soon"

I said "为什么?" She typed again, showed me the translation: "don't open the door". She smiles, says "OK?" I say "yeah...OK". Fuck. I really should choose a more reputable hotel next time.
Yeah I'm late to the party again, but I just heard Alice Skye for the first time. I don't think I will hear a more beautiful sound even if I live for 1000 years.

THIS. People are not going to un-vote for someone just because their grandfather was Scottish. Just change the fucking law!
It remains the case that no person disqualified under s 44 has lost their seat at a subsequent by-election. Every person who has recontested has been returned by the people. Section 44 is an expensive and unnecessary distraction to our democracy.
This is beautiful. These people are heroes.

Great article here on the MyHealthRecord scam. And yeah, you get only 1 article a week but there's an easy hack for that. Go to any newsagent and buy the physical copy and get all the articles. And you can pay in cash. (Cash is Bitcoin for IRL). thesaturdaypaper.com.au/news…
