The Pothole and the Pivot

-
The unions voted overwhelmingly for this nut. Don't believe the hype or what their leadership is saying. You can hear the hollow echo of their paid endorsements bouncing off the walls of deserted factories across the rust belt, but the membership, the actual men and women with dirt under their fingernails and bills in their hands, they pulled the lever for him anyway. It’s a spectacular, nauseating display of manufactured consent masking genuine, deep-seated economic anxiety that was cynically exploited and then thoroughly betrayed. The leadership puts out statements about job protection and collective bargaining, yet their collective endorsement was nothing more than political stagecraft, a rubber stamp on a strategy of self-destruction. The rank and file fell for the spectacle, the bombast, the sheer, theatrical lie of the strongman act, and now the entire working class is left holding the empty bag, wondering where the hell the promised boom went. The man never built anything. T...

Instead of acting as a partner to a tra...

Wig, Weave, or WTF

-
Looking at one or two Black female anchors with their $1,000 sewn in 8' long cadaver weaves strikes me as being as tone deaf as professionally employed Black females sporting tats (they self-consciously cover up with long sleeve blouses or pants depending on where the tatoo artist affixed their particular mark of shame. What is worse, I know a lot of them. To a person they all live in or around Prince Georges (PG) County, MD (which comprises affluent suburbs Southeast of DC, over-indexed by print, broadcast, and television journalists on the DC beat, government workers, skilled trademen, and other associated professionals living in suburban bliss between the two large urban centers of DC and Baltimore) and otherwise known as the "DMV." I swear I sometimes wanna ask 'em when I run into 'em in Bowie or Washington heights what tf is wrong with y'all? You cannot claim that you are conscious when you are doning an expensive, Eurocentric standard of beauty on your n...
