Comment:

Lindy pens lots of gems like this one: "People love to watch viral videos in which one kindly fisherman saves one sea turtle from a snarl of trash; they are less passionate about electing politicians who will dismantle policies that entrench corporate power and allow companies to pump poison into the oceans and skies in order to shore up the immoral wealth of billionaires and further destabilize the lives of the poor who will remain locked in toil until the planet boils us all to death as Jeff Bezos waves good-bye from his private rocket."

Quotations

  • "I have always opposed the stinging reality implied by the happy hour: that the precious sixty minutes between the tedium of one's job and the oppression of one's household is in fact a Happy Hour, that the rest of the day is composed of frustrating hours and boring hours and depressing hours, but -- lo! -- the Happy Hour swoops in at five o'clock on Friday and whispers, <i>Punch out, sweetheart, cheap rail drinks and sweaty men in loosened neckties await.</i>"
