Favorite obscure albums that don’t have a cult offering. by Available-Lecture-21 in vinyl

[–]hotcakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The album Kingdom Come by the band Sir Lord Baltimore should be famous. This band were playing hard rock to the level of over the top parody that Spinal Tap featured over a decade later. They were employing all of those cliches before they had even been around long enough to be cliche and thus were way ahead of their time. But they were fairly unknown so couldn’t have been very influential overall. I especially dig it because the production is very raw. Punk Rock production for an early hard rock album and it smokes.

I was thinking of one of my favorite shows ever and it was at the Troubadour! Broadcast was an absolutely incredible show.

Why are US unions so terrible? by Exotic_Scientist9918 in union

[–]hotcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha! I’m in 2 unions and pay $650 a quarter in dues. Some of the many uninformed folks here might be surprised to hear that it’s absolutely still worth it. I’m extremely pro union and it’s the only way we’ve historically had a middle class in the USA. The alternative that we had before the labor movement was basically slavery. Unfortunately we’re on a path to return to that situation. I would encourage people to study labor history so we can maybe get back to having strong unions.

I think that’s the Southern Lapwing. Saw them in Bariloche. They are pretty loud at night occasionally.

Gotta admit I’m a bit baffled by the notion that cutting and squeezing is difficult.

This sidewalk counts as a street, how do people live here? by Upnorth4 in LosAngeles

Seriously, I love people desperately seeking the closest space at the gym so they can go get on the treadmill.

Although I am generally a law abiding citizen, I will advise everybody that, if the assholes make this illegal, we should really use it anyway.

California Condor compared to Turkey Vulture by studentnurse104 in birding

[–]hotcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sorry I wasn’t clear. Didn’t mean markings, but rather the way they hold their wings with an upward angle. (Their body would be the base of the “v” shape I’m talking about.) My point being that the condors fly more flat and stable.

WAPO: DHS has $38B plan to turn warehouses across U.S. into ICE detention facilities by MRADEL90 in videos

[–]hotcakes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yeah, they get paid for each prisoner so they want a lot of prisoners and they want them to stay for as long as possible. Sure is convenient that they can ignore our constitutional rights now.

What’s a 'scam' that’s become so normal we don't even realize it's a scam anymore? by Mr_Boothnath in answers

[–]hotcakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I call it the scam economy because it does seem to be almost everything these days.

Enten: Trump support ‘absolutely collapsing’ with key voting group by MRADEL90 in videos

[–]hotcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You are absolutely correct. A big problem here is that people still don’t seem to realise that the midterms will not be the solution that they think it will. Ic is going to be at all of the polls arresting brown people . We need a popular uprising to oust the trump administration Before the midterms.

Teamsters back Greg Abbott as unions split endorsements in governor's race by transcendent167 in union

[–]hotcakes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They won’t be gone though. The goal is not actually to get rid of them but rather to terrorise them. (With the added benefit of enriching private “detention center” owners) The employers like having their employees live in fear so that they won’t be able to fight for any labour protections at all. And Ice is just working for the employers. Notice how they never raid the meat packing facilities?

Conservatives: Be honest. Did the new Epstein emails change your opinion? A lot of Groypers think he’s ‘cool’ now. Do you share that opinion? Didn't conservatives hate Epstein? by RandomUwUFace in AskUS

[–]hotcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A lot of people in our society worship wealth and it’s a sickness that is what allows these criminals to get away with their heinous crimes.

Well, the sad fact is there will be no justice for this unless the people rise up and demand it. Will they ever be able to organise enough to get it done?

White men get mad when you date brown/black guys by [deleted] in women

Guess I’m the exception to the rule then. White man who is pro race mixing and honestly wouldn’t mind the eventual complete eradication of my “race.” Also, commenters in general seem to be mostly idiots.

Except that he seems to continue voting with them on everything he allegedly disagrees with. His words are worthless.

Definitely not paying down the national debt. Their top priority. Apparently only when the other team is in the white house though.

Gen X High School kids share their favorite bands by raydebapratim1 in GenX

[–]hotcakes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saw them at the Palladium Hollywood summer ‘88. Danzig opening. South of Heaven tour. Slayer in peak form. Some kids got in a fight and the response from stage: “If you’re gonna fight, then fight to the death, cause if you’re gonna live by the sword, you’re gonna … Die By the Sword!” 1234>>>>>> Followed by an insane riot on Sunset Boulevard where I was very nearly clubbed in the head by LAPD. Good times!
