i always considered "you get what you give" as a genuine working class cryptosocialist anthem, an american equivalent of "tubthumping", and gregg alexander's interviews at the time showed how geniunely pissed off he was at the neoliberal order and the music scene being succumbed to it with grunge nihilism. but i guess thats nothing now. no longer my fav song of all time, now its "flight 643" by tiesto

a lot of migrant labourers will be doomed to die building this

also courtney killed kurt. never gonna let that go.

omg i worked at a McDonald’s in high school (almost 20yrs ago) and i stIll have a complex - if i stand/sit still at work for more than ~10sec, im terrified that i’ll get yelled at. It’s like abusive relationship trauma!

Pushing for Barry Goldwater was quite a choice on his part

A sampler platter of an ep as we talk about the Super Bowl, China’s “totalitarian” COVID response, the proudboy to Fed pipeline, and Nevada’s new proposal to allow blockchain companies to form municipal governments. Finally, we do our quarterly check-up on Rod Dreher to learn how he’s definitely NOT being blackmailed over pornography but definitely IS a stoolie.

Matt and Liz Bruenig stop by to talk KIDS.
