i feel like i learn about a new congressman every day and theyre always named like Brick Applewhite and saying absolutely insane things about murdering socialists
435 people with some positions switching every 2 years is a lot to keep track of, how am i supposed to remember Cliff Bonkerthorp III (R-Arkanasas) before he starts tweeting about the shadow cabal government thats trying to cancel the easter bunny with brickbats
inspired by this dude, who no doubt has a fleet of likeminded construction material named compatriots, like Rust Fortherton and Mud Gringerch

i dry brushed my hair just to feel alive and, related, have a new theory about sasquatch
update: now going to do jail support for @itsa_talia who got unjustly arrested while covering a protest (talia hive assemble) so its in a bun
a lovely, lively crowd of folks twerking and hanging outside the 7th precinct. no word about when talia & other arrestees might get out/bail funds. brought some dunkies and water to supplement the pizza.

watching "The Fall" to go with my general feeling of grey angst. its good
the gillian anderson/jamie dornan belfast murder show
beyond the inherent misogyny of the spectacle of the dead beautiful murdered nude woman (and throw in a seductive underage girl for good measure!) its gorgeously shot and pretty well written

if you are a white christian male reporter who decided that this week is a great time to get interested in far right extremism for the first time maybe.... don't
the impact of bad/minimizing/romantic coverage of this stuff is enormous, and diving in headfirst makes you enormously likely to a) process violent liars uncritically and b) have no consciousness of the historical roots of this stuff and c) not examine your own biases
and i mention identity here not bc identity implies foreknowledge, but bc having skin in the game- being one of their targets - can countermand the tendency to approach the far right as a morally neutral or salacious subject, rather than...hate movements premised on violence
