Like many of you, I thought Donald Trump was dead. So, yesterday I bought 6,000 eggs in order to sell them back at a higher price once his death was announced and prices skyrocketed. Now, I need to get rid of 5,980 eggs. I ate 20 today in a panic and I feel so so sick right now. Please help me.

The support of this is lovely to see. Don't believe the reporting about it though when it says "minor scuffles" and "no major incidents". The cops lost their shit and beat antifascist counterprotestors for two hours. We stopped them and humiliated them, but the cops made us hurt for it.

I have wider problems with substack - like as staunchly pro-democratisation in media and creativity and research as I am, a platform that encourages everyone to understand themselves as writers or columnists or intellectuals or whatever is very very strange to me

The cops love to outsource this work to local sanitation, public works, and parks/rec workers, too. People who never expected to be confronted with such a choice are forced to choose between their career in public service or their commitment to justice and human rights.
