I'm in SE Portland, doing errands, where I just ran across this. The short story is that a drunk man attempted to buy beer from a Plaid Pantry. He was turned down and peeled hard out of the parking lot, where he struck the guide wire on that pole.
You can see the parking lot better in this shot.

After crashing, the driver crawled out and, according to a witness, accused passersby of being "Antifa" and having caused the crash.
At present, the Plaid Pantry is temporarily closed while the firefighters attempt to figure out how to get he truck down.
Also: the driver is presently in Police custody.

the whole point of that scene with Saw Guerrera is that the early stages of the Rebellion WERE a bunch of groups that were that universe's equivalent to tankies, anarchists and weirdo fringe ideologies. none of them lived to see the new dawn but Luthen used them nonetheless
a huge amount of season one for Luthen is finding these different fringe resistance orgs who all hate and distrust each other and manipulating them in different ways to help bring about a more fit climate within which to build a more stable resistance
and Andor went out of its way to show that liberals, too, played a role in making what became the Rebellion. Luthen was as happy to use them as he was the anarchist guerillas and whatever we want to say Krieger was.

people are talking a lot about buying firearms and all i am going to say right now is if you are:

1. extremely emotional over the election results and
2. have never before owned a firearm

don't go buy one right now. this is not the kind of thing you should panic buy.
i am very pro firearm ownership and training. but the threat model now is different than it was in 2017, 2020 or last month. if you are depressed and terrified and have no experience with firearms buying one now at the height of your fear is a bad decision.
get an IFAK. train with it. spend money on something like a wilderness first responder course. purchase storable food. learn to can. learn to forage. learn to garden. these are better and safer ways to spend money and time while on the verge of panic.

i am watching an insane TV show called "The Old Man". the plot is total nonsense. some of the worst screenwriting i have ever seen. but it also stars Jeff Bridges and John Lithgow and the previous 36 years of my life have rendered me incapable of not watching it.

(spoilers inc)
the only way i can describe this show is "dad porn". Alia Shawkat, who was raised by Jeff Bridges after he stole her and her mom from a warlord in Afghanistan, starts the series thinking she has one dad but keeps picking up new dads every few episodes, starting with John Lithgow
at the beginning of the show Lithgow, former director of the FBI, is portrayed as her work mentor and mentions she spent a few holidays with them because Jeff Bridges lives off grid (he was a CIA operator). near the end of season 1 he declares himself A Dad to Alia as well.

well so far, judged purely by what's on screen, this VP debate looks like two adults arguing about policy so yeah I'm fairly certain it won't move any needles
it's interesting to me that walz started his Israel/Iran answer by repeating Kamala's line on Israel while Vance started his reply by summarizing Hillbilly Elegy

Wouldn't call either response good but the difference between them is interesting
Walz's response on fentanyl was...OK, I think he did the minimum he needed to do. Wondering why he and Kamala never bring up that fent is overwhelmingly trafficked into the country at ports of entry by citizens

this is the only way to beat Republicans. you don't try to understand them. You don't try to compromise. You stick your fucking thumbs in their eyes and fuck the bloody hole. that's what they'll do to you. That's what you do to them.
I was raised by these people and let me tell you they will burn this world to the ground for a tax cut and the feeling that they're "winning". you do them a favor by fighting them. they need to lose. the ones who aren't totally gone know this, somewhere, deep inside. beat them .
conservative politics exploits a deep brokenness in our brains. something that went wrong when we started living in cities and civilization got bigger than some of us were ready for. the only way to save these people is to beat them so badly they stop fucking trying

A man has been shot and killed by Columbus Police in town for the RNC. Man was brandishing a knife or knives. Described as a black male.

So far believed to be unrelated to RNC, not a protest or anything.

Heading over there with Dan now.
This is out side the MLK Community Center. Like twenty or thirty minutes away from the Convention itself. Unclear why Columbus PD guys in town for the convention were this far away from venue
We are here. No media when we first arrived. Some now. Capitol Police and Homeland Security were here when we arrived but seem to be leaving now. Likely bc not directly related to the RNC.
