Younger writers. Please, just know that you could not skip to different songs on a cassette tape, that’s CDs. With tapes you pressed fast forward or rewind and prayed.
Also, VHS tapes did not have menu screens. Your only options were play, fast forward, rewind, pause, stop, or eject.
Y’all are making me feel like the crypt keeper here, I’m begging you 😭

This feels like a good time to say that we do not know for sure if Luigi Mangione actually did it. He’s a suspect and person of interest, but that’s all he is at this point. (I, personally, am kind of skeptical).
Keeping that in mind, remember that this guy is potentially completely uninvolved, but is now having every single aspect of his life scrutinized and torn apart by the entire country. People are looking at his medical history, his social media, his education, even his goodreads. I understand that we want to know more about this, but we could be doing more harm than good to this individual, regardless of whether or not he did it.
Just please make sure not to use language that refers to him factually as the killer, when we don’t know for sure yet. And please keep in mind that this is a human being, and scrutinizing every aspect of his life like the way people have been doing could be doing harm.
Also, stop with the liberal purity talk. If you’re a person that’s going to write him off (if he did do it) because of his expressed beliefs, consider the idea that maybe that actually helps nothing and no one. No one human being is perfect, and this is a guy that shot a man in the open. Obviously, he’s not going to be your ideal liberal leftist with all the “correct opinions”. This man may have saved actual lives by doing what he did, and could have ruined his life in doing it.
The media is going to try to use this to drive us apart, after we were so united for the first time ever. Do not fall for it. Do not be a tool. We’re done with the pearl-clutching.

y'all HAVE to watch this...interview??? with the inmates of the prison where luigi mangione is being held.
the reporter is standing outside the prison walls, while the inmates are inside watching newsmax, and collectively screaming out one-word answers to questions loud enough to be heard by the reporter.
I've never seen anything like it

you guys made luigi mangione trend for days and I need to see the same energy for brianna boston. she is a 43 year old mother of three who ended a phone call with blue cross blue shield (after being denied a claim) “delay deny depose, you’re next” and is now being held under a 100,000$ bond and could face FIFTEEN years of prison if charged. she has no weapons, her record is clean, and yet she is being held behind bars. they are afraid of the public and are trying to subdue. do not let them!!!! say her name!!! be outraged that our freedom of speech is being threatened!!!!! deny defend depose! free brianna boston!
