The Spork Speaks

*** This originally ran in 2017 and was then heavily revised in 2018. I’ve updated it again for 2021, since there are many more reasons to hold mostly peaceful protests. ***

Some people are pitchfork people. They like the heft, the balance, and the soothing calm that comes from sharpening evenly-spaced tines. Pitchforks look deadly. They are a practical yet humble implement used by commoners to work the land. When it’s time for 1776 shenanigans, pitchfork people herd oligarchical despots like snakes to a mongoose convention. Just as God intended. If you don’t find a cartoon-ish jab to the behinds of bankers, TV doctors, and corruptocrats as spectacularly hilarious as myself…

…then you are probably a torch person.
Torch people favor the agility a lit torch grants during disorderly political rallies. They enjoy the soothing calm that comes from staring into a dancing flame. Torches are the tool of alchemists, using a secret chemical reaction which few can explain, but everyone can understand. Making despotic autocrats do a heat-avoidance jig is humiliating and effective. Fire cleanses in a righteous manner. Also as God intended. Continue reading →

BIG TECH BURNED BY BIDEN BLUNDER

Glenn Harlan Reynolds

In my 2019 book, The Social Media Upheaval, I warned that the Big Tech companies — especially social media giants like Facebook and Twitter — had grown into powerful monopolists, who were using their power over the national conversation to not only sell ads, but also to promote a political agenda. That was pretty obvious last year, but it was even more obvious last week, when Facebook and Twitter tried to black out the New York Post’s blockbuster report about emails found on a laptop abandoned by Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s son Hunter.

CHAZ, LOTR, Wednesday Miscellany

Or CHOP. Or whatever they’ve renamed it this morning. Found in the rubble of the chamber of Mazarbul Downtown Seattle Political / Community Center and Free Speech Area, under a mound of discarded bongs and rubber dog masks.

FIRST WEEK

In a firm bold hand with little peace symbols over the ‘i’s.

We drove out the Police from the Great Gate and guardroom and took the Police Station. We threw rocks at many in the bright sun in the East Pine Street. Jeremy was taken out by a rubber bullet. He called the great Police chief racist […] Nikkita teargassed near 12th Avenue name […] came […]ken we repaired […] We have taken the Six Blocks of Capitol Hill to dwell in. There is good food […] that can easily be looted […] the precinct is clear […] Chaz has set up his seat at the No Cop Co-Op […] gathered […] tribute free pizza donations […] wonderful lay the conch shell […] first unmasked kiss. Hookup. […] Today we planted the black and allies only garden. […] consume them first. […] Jasmyne sent to seek the spray paint supplies of the upper business district… Go […] Black Lives Matter murals. Continue reading →
