I am never not going to be proud of this:

Before he became known as a #serial #killer, John Wayne #Gacy was a popular clown who regularly performed at charity events. Suppose that because of his popularity, his town of Norwood Park had decided to name a street after him: call it Gacy Avenue.

Now suppose that after his murders came to light, the town wanted to change the name, but a bunch of residents who thought “shame about all those kids he killed, but you know, he was a really good clown” wanted to keep the name. So they declared that Gacy Ave. wasn’t actually named after noted killer clown John Wayne Gacy, but some other completely unrelated guy named William Gacy, who as it happened was also a really good clown but without that unfortunate predilection for slaughter.

How do you think that would go over with the families of John Wayne Gacy’s victims, exactly?

Ben! (Boo!)

Siblings reunited! Both were bought in the same town, but at different locations. But because of a 50% sale on the former I paid exactly a dollar a piece for them a month apart. Obviously, yes, I bought the second purely because I enjoyed the mostly made-for-TV crime-of-the-week content of the first and knew immediately this was the same company when I saw it.

One DVD that promises 8 movies about Serial Killers even though it actually only has one about a real serial killer in Ted Bundy but also a Manson thing, The Amy Fisher Story, Speck, and The Elizabeth Short Story advertised. It is mostly red, black, white, and black and white. The second lists cases like "Lethal Beauty, Black Widower, Helzer Skelter, and The Witching Hour" and is mostly white with black and red typing but basically just a tighter pose of the same Manson picture the first one led with. It is called Cold-Blooded Killers and promises 10 hours of terror.

→ Why top internet sleuths say they won't help find the UnitedHealthcare CEO killer

“[Savannah Sparks, who has 1.3 million followers on her TikTok account], who also works in health care as a lactation consultant and holds a doctorate of pharmacy, didn’t mince words when asked if her community was working to find the suspect in Thompson’s murder. "Absolutely the f--- not," she said.”

"Everyday that he remains free is another day the story is in the news cycle, and everyday the story remains in the news cycle exposes more class traitors. The people are realizing who's really on their side and they're taking notes."

ℹ️ comment from justaphil on this amazing thread that's definitely worth reading:

#Rightwing #corporate #grifter getting cooked by his own audience over Co-Pay #Killer

A screenshot (one of many in the linked Reddit post) of 4 comments from a Ben Shapiro video where, of course, he puts the entire focus on the "EVIL Revolutionary Left" regarding the murder of UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson. His audience, however, ain't having none of that. They are obviously incensed and loudly calling Shapiro out for his pompous rhetoric of making the issue political instead of what it is: a class war between those that work and those that own & take. Here are the comments in this screenshot but there are many(!) more at the linked Reddit post. They offer a serene and mutual response that clearly shows the US being more united on a subject since 9/11. (I don't have any claim to anything in the Reddit thread. I don't even have a Reddit account lol. I just thought it was small sliver of hope and wanted to share it.) ** I'm not buying this “left vs right” shit anymore Ben, | want healthcare for my family ** Seeing rich people be so out of touch on this topic and be so clearly afraid of a potential class consciousness truly fills me with hope ** SURPRISE: Out of touch rich guy defends other rich guys ** hey ben. daily listener and fan here! just lettin ya know that your wealth is showing. don't forget, poor people like us are victims of healthcare fraud. when my provider denied my claim, i didn't have enough money to hire a lawyer and sue. | had to file for bankruptcy. It ruined my life. My entire life. 5 years later, the government .. Read more...
