  1. can't imagine being a governor and having to be on a conference call w/this idiot.
  2. Buck Sexton is a real name of a real person Trump retweeted.
  3. lot's of destruction meandering around in this one. at the end of the clip the guy is kind of panicked a bit and trying to leave.. a guy tells him he should leave because they beat up some white people. lot's of rage pouring out
  4. the guy who charged the looters with a sword? that video is super brutal. did he die? last i heard he was just badly injured. also, wasn't his store he was just attempting to defend it for some reason when he charged with a sword. a fuckign sword.
  5. Warp Artist Vincent Gallo? yeah.. he also makes music with lot's of old machines and test equipment. can't say i recall hearing any of it ever but he's got releases on warp. https://warp.net/artists/91391-vincent-gallo it doesn't matter. everyone is looking at chloe sevigny anyways.
  6. i caved and ordered the autechre t-shirts from bleep. at the start of pandemic lockdown i sold a bunch of modules and bought winter modular Eloquencer sequencer. quite programmable. makes a good mate w/the malekko Varigate 8+ which is really fast to use.
  7. U.S. cities fear protests may fuel new wave of virus outbreaks https://www.cp24.com/world/u-s-cities-fear-protests-may-fuel-new-wave-of-virus-outbreaks-1.4961869 ?
  8. they have a pretty high murder rate. real gun problem. it's one of those places like parts of chicago where there's lot's of gun violence. it's savy of their police to join the marches on side of the protestors. cops walking a beat and getting to know the neighborhood and residents used to be the way to do it but hasn't been that way in america for a long time. it is depressing.
  9. regarding ACAB.. i have the same problem with the word ALL.. my brother was a cop for 15 years in a small district in miami. some of his cop buddies were idiots some were A+ people who just wanted to help people. 90% of what my brother had to deal with was conflict resolution during domestic violence situations and dealign with drunk idiots and people who shouldn't be driving. but why i think ACAB has weight is because cops so rarely break ranks. it's fear that if that one bad cop get's punished then things will be harder for all the other cops.. or something.. a post i read recently summed it up simply.. if you have 10 bad cops and 1000 good cops but the 1000 good cops don't turn in the 10 bad cops then you basically have 1010 bad cops. and cops have a pretty good union. i think there's a difference between a cop who makes a mistake in an instant and a bad cop who is out to fuck people up. and i think in situations like this.. riots.. when they're amped up and out en masse that they give in to shitty nature/behavior and they want to take out their anger or frustration or just be fucking meat heads. i think the same happens in the military. a good example of that kind of thing is the 10 episode series "Generation Kill" which was done by the guy who did The Wire.. David Simon... it's about the marines who bee lined to bahgdad in the gulf war. some of the actors are the marines playing themselves. really shows the "some of them are best and brightest and some are total morons" type thing.
  10. shit is crazy everywhere. miami style here's a link to a bunch of twitter posts. some i posted above. the top story at link is graphic and hard to watch. apparently a dude charged protestors/looters with a sword and they beat him badly. he was trying to defend a store or something.. not his store.. just some store. i guess he didn't study the blade enough. i know.. that was low hanging fruit. https://www.lawenforcementtoday.com/dallas-man-beaten-stoned-and-left-for-dead-by-rioters/ it's fucking rough. crowds can be brutal as fuck.
