“Big Country \u2014 the Nashville-controlled, pop-folk music that commodifies rural American fantasies \u2014 is the cultural arm of white grievance politics.” https:\/\/archive.ph\/eDj1a<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The clock, the sofa, the religious paintings on the walls \u2014 all the daily objects that Carrie explodes during her rampage \u2014 these are drawn from life, as is the everyday sadism of the high school kids that makes \u201cCarrie\u201d feel as frighteningly relevant as ever. https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2024\/03\/25\/books\/review\/stephen-king-carrie-50-anniversary.html?ugrp=m&unlocked_article_code=1.gU0.xNAo.c2hosCBdeZzv&smid=url-share<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

No worries if you\u2019re feelin\u2019 a little less adventurous today, man.

\u201cthe very fact that we don\u2019t know what #debt<\/a> is, the very flexibility of the concept, is the basis of its power. If history shows anything, it is that there\u2019s no better way to justify relations founded on violence, to make such relations seem moral, than by reframing them in the language of debt.\u201d #strikedebt<\/a> #studentdebt<\/a> https:\/\/thewalrus.ca\/were-more-in-debt-than-ever-what-now\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n

“We build cities consciously. In Paris, that means subsidizing real estate for working people and small businesses that create interesting street scenes of street level caf\u00e9s and the like. In Halifax, it means turning over all development to private corporations that bring dagger-like bank buildings to the main street, complete with street-level window views onto office desks.” #novascotia<\/a> #canada<\/a> https:\/\/www.halifaxexaminer.ca\/paris-shows-how-public-housing-can-save-the-soul-of-a-city\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n
