dece little write up about the SF/DS/Trillbillies southern tour:https://theoutline.com/post/7755/street-fight-district-sentinel-trillbillies-tour-reviewI guess the KJB chant wasn’t as spontaneous as I’d thought.

They're exactly that dense but the pranker's interview with Jacobin is pretty eye rolling. Striking a blow against the credibility of right wing media! As if anyone writing checks for Quillette or the goons who read it give a fuck. Retractions never matter, what people remember is the initial inflammatory article.

Making new friends out on the campaign trail
I talked to @virgiltexas, @cushbomb and @willmenaker from @CHAPOTRAPHOUSE about the multiple challenges with China, healthcare, Iran and corporate power... and the need for accountable leadership in the White House - and why I’m the one who can do that as President. pic.twitter.com/8Tw62jtUjr— Joe Sestak (@JoeSestak) August 12, 2019

I really do not understand their fascination with the fifth-stringer candidates
― Simon H., Monday, 12 August 2019 20:29 (five years ago) link
they're a lot more accessible, in my experience
and it's more fun to goof on the broad strokes than to cynically yell about the minutiae of the top-runners and their platforms, as much as I enjoy Matt doing that

I was going to be in the crowd checking out Sanders at the state fair yesterday, but the weather was rainy early and the crowds too large. Those damn media elites and their special area? Keeping the candidates away from the common man.

Matt's definitely going for a specific look in a whimsical way (Panama Jack meets Tommy Bahama?), Virgil increasingly looks like an overgrown teen who thinks he looks cool with a suit jacket (probably did a vintage suit thing in high school/college) and I have no idea why Will is wearing track pants and a shirt wide open/sleeves rolled up

NEVER wear a suit jacket with skinny jeans and sneakers....
eh, I'm sure it's a look someone can pull off
just not anyone within miles of the thread
― untuned mass damper (mh), Tuesday, 13 August 2019 19:54 (five years ago) link
almost convinced Virgil's twitter picture isn't just a one-off where he's got a specific look going and it seems to work, but it might be possibly a picture of another person entirely

I mean, maybe his underwear was riding up, he drank too many liquids and had to pee, idkbut in the moment my instinct told me that man shartedalso he was wearing the all-white outfit from the tweet this past weekend

it probably wasn't the case, but that was immediately what went through my mind as well
so, parking at the state fair is at a relative premium and there are a myriad of ways to address that. there's a shuttle bus from downtown parking, some charity-owned lots nearby, and the classic "park in someone's yard for cash"
basically people who live really close to the fairgrounds will stand around with a sign, or someone will pay them for use of their yard to do so, and they'll line up cars on the grass. it's usually early in the day, and you just kind of roll the dice on whether it'll be easy to extract your car later. apparently the chapo election team decided to do this, and some asshole arrived late and blocked all the other cars in
it wasn't clear whether someone else in the crowd called the cops or they did (could use some clarification here, I was like YOU CALLED THE COPS?!) but the idea was apparently you call the cops, the cops say it's ok for a tow truck to pull the offending vehicle out of the way. cop arrives, basically says "I don't know man, it's private property, you've gotta figure it out" and finally a bunch of people banded together to just shove the car out of the driveway and they made their way out.
hopefully that segment makes a podcast because it was entertaining. also, I don't think I would park like that in a rental so...

Their Epstein stuff is kind of unlistenable. I also tried to give Brace Belden's True Anon podcast a chance and it was equally unlistenable.

I thought it was just mocking corny sportscasters - Trump's thing is more "we love ... don't we folks" right?
Actually I think the originator may be Pierre Louÿs - https://www.wakefieldpress.com/louys_pybrac.html
First published posthumously in 1927, Pybrac was, with The Young Girl’s Handbook of Good Manners, one of the first of Louÿs’ secret erotic manuscripts to see clandestine publication. Composed of 313 rhymed alexandrine quatrains, the majority of them starting with the phrase “I do not like to see…,” Pybrac is in form a mockery of sixteenth-century chancellor poet Guy Du Faur, Seigneur de Pibrac, whose moralizing quatrains were common literary fare for young French readers until the nineteenth century. Louÿs spent his life coming up with his own evergrowing collection of rhymed moral precepts (suitable only for adult readers): a dizzying litany describing everything he “disliked” witnessing, from lesbianism, sodomy, incest, and prostitution to perversions extreme enough to give even a modern reader pause.
