I was far more sick this weekend than I've been in YEARS. However, I'm feeling much better and was able to repaint my office.

Gone from the weird Pepito Pink, to a much more adult, Cookie Monster Blue.

November 15, 1936: 1,800 militiamen from the anarchist Durruti Column entered Madrid to fight the fascists. Madrid was the first large city in the world to be subjected to a fascist attack as a prelude to WWII. By November 18th, only 700 of the 1800 anarchist militiamen were still fighting. Many had died and others had deserted because of hunger and sleep deprivation. Durruti persuaded some to return to their positions, but was himself mortally wounded on November 20, 1936. Over 200,000 people attended his funeral in Barcelona.

Durruti was a member of the anarchosyndicalist CNT labor union and the Iberian Anarchist Federation (FAI). In 1920, along with several Basque anarchists, he formed the paramilitary group Los Justicieros, who unsuccessfully tried to assassinate the king. After this, he went to Barcelona, to help organize workers with the CNT. There he formed one of Spain’s most famous affinity groups, Los Solidarios.
In 1923, the group assassinated Cardinal Juan Soldevilla y Romero, as a reprisal for the killing of an anarcho-syndicalist union activist Salvador Seguí. After this, Durruti went in hiding in South America, where he robbed banks to raise money for the cause. He returned to Spain in the 1930s, where he formed the Durruti Column, which won numerous battles during the Civil War.

@Ashedryden @jacky welcome!

@ai6yr I mean,good steak and cheese... otherwise, it's russian-cold and the usual Midwest thing of corn and racism.

Anti-genocide & anti-Trump protestors tried to break through Police lines in Manila to reach Donald Trump during the ASEAN summit.

No surprise, but plenty of irony, that the Philippines Government is protecting foreign War Criminals, like Trump. Their prez, Bongbong Marcos, is the son of disgraced former dictator Ferdinand Marcos, who the U.S. protected for decades. Marcos senior had held the record for looting more wealth from his citizens than any other world leader.... that is until Trump took power for the 2nd time.

*The Exorcist theme starts playing

pretty sure that's called a radio

@wolfwitte du hast natürlich Recht, ich drücke das viel zu nett aus.

Wer Geld von mir will, muss dafür Mehrwert liefern. Mehrwert heißt: meine Zeit respektieren, so dass ich in der kürzest möglichen Zeit finde, was mich interessiert. Für spannende Plots kauf ich lieber ein Buch.

(Alternative: dark patterns, so dass ich es jedes mal bereue, reingeschaut zu haben, und doch immer wieder zurückkomme)

@rgarner I have a song about that.

@cohanf scrappy is a much needed force of good these days.

Problems
1- you end up in Winsconsin
2- you end up in Milwaukee
3- $9k? That's barely enough for a couple to move their things across country.
4- only applies if you have no friends, if you had friends they'd talk you out of moving there.
