These little fluff things especially when they pop up when cops are under scrutiny are always kinda silly, as if the primary complaints about cops are that they give out an insufficient amount of toy gifts for the village children like really low quality elves.
I mean it would be great if the role of cops was just to give out toys, sponsor little league teams, buy ice cream for people, and do TikTok meme dances but instead theres just a lot of murder and violence and sexual assault.
Embattled Police Department Faces Community Demands For Better Flash Mobs, More Current Songs And Dances
"Resident Martha Garcia voiced her complaint about a particularly infamous afternoon when local police assembled at the intersection of 3rd and Main and 'did Gangnam Style, like, in 2021! It was doing cringe to this community.'

In our worker co-op if I suddenly do some fucked up shit the other folks can get together and figure out what to do about it, and we have procedures in place for that, including booting me out. They still own the project, they still have access to the bank account, etc
One of the big reasons we wanted to do this is because we'd all experienced how standard workplace structures or even looser teams lend themselves to abuse and exploitation and cultures of silence and excuses etc. Like straight up that was and is a huge motivator.
When we talk a lot about increasing the amount of power workers have in the workplace, I cannot underline this enough, it is directly related to past experiences in the workplace including the things that regularly are exposed in the game industry. We didn't just have some whim.

all solidarity to the staff of the infamous southside burger king
folks in the area know all about this particular spot but if you do not, this was once a false burger king
we lived like 2 blocks from there for 5 years. we ate there a couple times and got sick both times. it was noticeably not a regular burger king, had weird cups and wrappers and stuff and the bathroom was perpetually closed. and that drive through death tunnel.

I haven't posted music in a while, been too busy with work and other projects. I need to get back to the music stuff. I even opened up a SOUNDCLOUD and then got exactly one tiny track on it soundcloud.com/scott-benson-3…
For awhile I was doing these one-minute-or-so jams with little animations. They were cool. This has some flashing stuff so heads up if that's a thing for you.

The Middle by Jimmy Eat World sounds a lot like it could be a Gin Blossoms song. Just observations for your saturday
Like if you tweaked a few things it could go right between Day Job and Hey Jealousy in a set
The Middle is a bit cleaner and glossier and the vocal delivery is cleaner and tighter but otherwise I'm just saying

It's been a very hectic and stressful few weeks and I am wide awake at 3am watching American Ninja Warrior
Their pandemic setup for this really is very impressive

*squints* wait the Bush-era torture lady is an exec at Activision?
Just restating that people like Townsend and up are the real ones with power here. Until people up in those levels feel real consequences and workers have power as a group to push back, this will go on and on and on and on.
It does seem appropriate that Fran Townsend worked for Bush but honestly you're going to find people across the political spectrum doing stuff like this. Really hammers home how the larger power at work when it comes to workplace abuse like this transcends identity and ideology.
