In social movement studies, we talk about how marches and protests expand the threshold of acceptable risk so that people take more and bigger social risks IN PUBLIC, EN MASSE. This is extremely important for the bourgeois white folks holding signs and building social rapport.

β€˜We’re terribly sorry’: South Park creators respond with humour to White House anger over naked Donald Trump Speaking at Comic-Con on Thursday, Trey Parker and Matt Stone revealed they spent days negotiating with producers to show the US president’s genitals

Stone added that the team decided to put eyes on the p3n1s, which would make it a character: β€œIf we put eyes on the p3n1s, we won’t blur it. That was a whole conversation with grown-up people for four fucking days.”

The strange 'ballot-fellows' revealed on parties' how-to-vote cards The full set of major party players' how-to-vote guides for the House of Representatives reveals some surprising alliances.

This is a great article from the (Australian) ABC! All the 'How to Vote' cards from all the major parties from all the electorates in our Federal election. You can do your own at the bottom of the article, and you can look up your own electorate. Nifty!

White text on black background with a big 50501 logo at the bottom. The 50501 logo is a blue circle within a white circle within a red circle. The blue circle has "50" over another "50" and a big "1" to the right of those 50's. The blue circle also has a ring of white start near its outer edge. Text at the top reads: "What really is the 3.5% Rule?"

You’ve probably seen people mention the 3.5% Rule. But do you know what it really means? 1/

Still working on the premise that someone is trolling by creating this, and Trump took it to be real. Please?

*not to be confused with the Doge of Venice. I suspect the blokes who were the Doges of Venice would possibly be impressed by the brazen attitude, but not the stupidity...
