saw a tim scott ad on behalf of the republican running for senate for PA that made me mad for two reasons 1. Please stay out of pennsylvania business, tim. 2. The ad was mostly focused on how bob casey is "racist" for not supporting school choices. Which yeah I can see how you might get there but only if you've never spent more than 5 minutes thinking abt the issue. And this is important bc philly has lots of charyer schools ofc. yes charter schools position themselves as an alternative to the overtly racist public education system (housing segregation -> low property values in urban neighborhoods-> underfunded schools) but they are not under any circumstances a solution to the problem they're barely even a bandaid. But honestly I can't even get into it i wrote a 20 ish page paper on this my junior year of college which I actually presented at a conference in philly lol
#basically charter schools dont produce reliably better school performance they shift the burden of responsibility for a quality public#service (education) off of the government and onto parents who are already likely overworked and underpaid#they decrease racial diversity in schools (charter schools in predominantly black neighborhoods tend to be hypersegregated#while charter schools in predominanlty white more affluent neighborhoods are more white than the public schools#i could go on. but hey who could have guessed that school choice. of which the modern version today was basically invented#to prevent the racial integration of public schools could ever be racist. also they lack accountability and oversight#the hiring standards for teachers are much lower etc. the kids whose parents dont take the initative to find them a charter school#or who dont get picked in the lottery are fhcked over bc they are stuck in a poorly funded school whose resources are dwindling#thanks to school choice. whateverr why cant we all just acknowledge that the best choice is to reform public school funding

Not sure if this has been brought up before, but I don’t think that there’s that significant of a secret behind the mural man. LIke? Apparently the political figures of Vinyl City are determined not by public voting (alone) or running for candidacy, but through the Lights Up competition for a combination of 1) completing the arena, 2) ‘lighting up’ the stage as the competition implies, and 3) passing the final vote from the NSRtists and the Head. If there was only 5 musicians and a head with NO vacancies, why would any of the Charters vote ‘yes’ to the contestant/s if there’s a risk in getting replaced?
I would think that the mural man filled in that 6th artist slot present even on DJ Subatomic Supernova’s satellite, and I suppose the mystery then would be if their absence was either through retiring, quitting or simply the end of their term as a Charter. Like, instead of an election season or whatever, Vinyl City holds Lights Up Auditions during a set period during that 6th Charter’s crossover or something; on the satellite again, it’s not as if we see the mural man’s name in 6th (we see Bunk Bed Junction’s), maybe they’re already gone or are archiving stuff from their district. Does Tatiana temporarily hold ‘charter’ to the district? Does she hold the platinum disc until a new position is filled? Is Festival Plaza that district that once had mural man as a Charter? Do you think with the Rock Revolution and the subsequent approval of indie bands that the position was left empty or even completely abolished?
idk, lmao-
#mural man#no straight roads#nsr#i mean i could be completely wrong on 1) this being a thing that's been mentioned and 2) clearly not knowing the mystery enough#i mean i played the game back in 2020 and only noticed it playing it again this year 2023 so lmao#a little bit blinded by the tatiana fight because i cannot carry a rhythm for my life and only like idk... sometime recent#that i got the achievement for 'don't get knocked out idiot' lmao#but like i just wanted to think about the politics (even if surface level) of vinyl city lmao- it's just so odd#take out the music part of their political system and you've essentially got idk a talent show arena election system#without that extra slot of ambivalent 'i'm retiring/quitting/ending my term' charter seat#it's like 'who hasn't met the standards of chartering their own district'

A Lesson in Influence and Power at the Ritz-Carlton, Riyadh
A Lesson in Influence and Power At precisely 6:19 PM last Tuesday evening, a significant lesson unfolded in the opulent gold-trimmed corridor leading from the lobby of the Ritz-Carlton, Riyadh. It was a scene that encapsulated the intricate dance of money, power, and what many Arabs refer to as wasta, or influence. The evening commenced with Marc Rowan, a billionaire in the private equity sphere,…

Standard Chartered Predicts Bitcoin to Hit All-Time High Before U.S. Presidential Election
According to Standard Chartered, Bitcoin may see a new all-time high of $74,000 before the U.S. presidential election in November 2024. Geoff Kendrick, the head of digital assets research at the bank, attributes this forecast to several key factors, including a steeper U.S. Treasury yield curve, growing interest in Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), and the possibility of Donald Trump’s…
