Charlie Kirk Assassinated [Shooter in custody]
If by “people” you mean all people inclusive of yourself and who you vote for, then I have no quibble with your post. I agree that violence begins when discussion ends, and I’d go further to say discussion ends when one party to the discussion simply wants to discuss the failures of the other (or if both parties only want to discuss the failures of the other, as the case may be).

I think we all need to acknowledge and realize people all across the political spectrum are being radicalized and moved to action. A context has been established to where Americans are feeling abject terror from and seething anger towards fellow Americans, and Charlie Kirk’s death and this shooter’s ruined life are but the latest ramifications of that. They won’t be the last. We the people need to quit tuning into, liking, sharing and electing the architects of this context. It’s not limited to a side, because both sides are telling the truth about each other and lying about themselves — to themselves. Turn off the news, unsubscribe from those podcasts, shut down social media, get off the Internet (including Surly). Focus on connecting with and being kind to others in your proximal life — especially if they are different than you. If you want to change the world for the better, start there. It’s easier said than done, and I say it knowing I have been an imperfect adherent if not outright hypocrite in the past. But I’m trying.

Well, he's cooked regardless. I mean, there is no way this goes unpunished with the death penalty. The only real question is going to be, does the retribution stop at the murderer directly responsible for Charlie Kirk's death?

Only other notable thing about Magna is this that Kennecott mining had knowledge that its mine tailing impoundments could fail, flood the city and kill/harm a lot of folks and covered it up. It's a shit hole. Or at least was in 2007-2008 when I lived in SLC. http://archive.sltrib.com/article.php?id=8667373&itype=NGPSID

Magna, UT is essentially a suburb of Salt Lake City, for whatever that is worth. Magna is to SLC as Liberty Hill is to Austin, for instance. Vestiges of being its own entity, but the city has started to absorb it.

Final mastered version of that last track after a final round of mix tweaks in case anyone wants to hear it. @sidis was kind enough to do the mastering for me.

The Democratic Party
I don't disagree, but this message from Talarico: Is essentially saying "I want to reconcile with my countrymen who I might disagree with politically so we can find a path forward together" But it's coming from a Democratic Party member in a deeply red state, and Democrats are at their lowest point of appeal, power and influence in my lifetime. So it seems pretty disingenuous and self serving coming from a member of the party that is, from what I can tell, on life support while the other party has a hand on the power cord. Add into that the decades of conditioning that all things left, liberal and with a D attached to it are evil, and Talarico the Democrat isn't going to pull any meaningful number of voters from the right with that message at this stage of our devolution. For that idea to be embraceable by people who have been voting right, it's going to have to come from someone not on the left. And for that idea to be embraceable by people who have been voting left, it's going to have to come from someone not on the right. Maybe someone like Arnold Schwarzenegger (Republican, demonstrably not MAGA) could form a new party around that idea and get people to buy into it. But, I dunno.

The Democratic Party
Knowing the prevailing mindset here, and the prevailing mindset among conservatives that I know, I just think the opposing party is dead to these people. I don’t think there is anything that can be said or done to convince them otherwise. These people see an R or D and their decision is effectively made, and little else matters. I think Talarico’s message would need to come from an independent, or perhaps a new party founded by people who are eschewing both parties. If he could find a like mind from the Republican Party and get some monied people behind them, start a new party focused on de-escalation, unity, preserving the Republic and populist economics. That might pull a decent number of people from both parties that currently have been essentially forced to choose between two warring factions. The problem when people make their decision between R or D right now, they fall into an information bubble provided by that side that has more to do with motivating them to join the fight than it has with promoting any sort of common ground. You are presented with the best of “your” side and the worst of the “other” side. And outside forces (Russia, others) contribute their weight to ensuring that half the people view the other half as a mortal threat and vice versa. I fully know one or both parties would be trying to undermine these efforts of a new, upstart party and it very well might fail. But the alternative is a continuation of current trends, which likely means the extinction of the Democratic Party and 20th century liberalism. It might mean worse than that.

The Democratic Party
While I applaud the sentiments in the post (didn't watch the video), I don't think that is a message preachable by someone with a D or R associated with their name. I mean, there is no way half the country doesn't see it as completely disingenuous.

Arch Manning: Scores every way possible
Doesn't ayahuasca make you lose control of your bowels and shit all over yourself? I think we've seen quite enough of that from Arch already.

I Don't Want To Make This Poll, But its unfortunately necessary.
We've got 3 games of really subpar to abjectly shitty QB play after which Arch is mopey and says, "I played poorly. I've got to play better." It doesn't take much of that for people to lose faith. And by people, I don't mean fans who are always going to be ignorantly fickle. I mean coaches and teammates. And if a head coach insists on testing the definition of insanity by trotting the same non-performing player out there as a starter without seeing if someone else can be more than shitty on Saturdays, well, it doesn't take much of that for players, other coaches, recruits and those fickle fans to lose faith in the head coach, too. Compare Arch's postgame demeanor and subsequent performance after subpar/shitty play in these 3 games to this guy's. If this is an example of the intangible "it" that the best players have, Arch right now is a void of "it". I wish it was different for him.

I think you announce publicly that Arch will start, but his backup will be prepared to play early in if Arch does not perform to a starter's standard. And fucking mean it. Give Arch the warning, the chance to man up and play but be prepared to see if someone else does not suck in game situations.

This should really be everyone’s response and the end of the discussion.
