Indeed, is she “brown enough?” And for all the oh so smart anti-imperialists who say no, can find you a US racist who is damn sure she’s not white.

I’ve gotten a freelance gig that basically pays me to read and write about books. (The dream, basically) However, I seem to be using that as justification to not change out of pajamas. If I didn’t have the project I’d have changed by now for sure.

Vzla State tv shows dialysis meds arriving. Govt has long said economic blockade prohibited such shipments rather than criminal negligence. Govt supporters who believe the line I can’t comment on, but inexcusable that intl English speaking Govt supporters parroted the same thing.

Every announced sanction- personal or economic- is always followed by a slew of commentators insisting such measures counterproductive & cement people to Maduro. So what’s the current thinking on why these talks are happening?

Meetings were held in Panama, DR & Bogota. And the plan was to avoid an unpalatable Latam-style coup but rather remove Maduro through a court ruling allowing military to save face. via @WSJ

The oldest appears to have been hired at mcDonalds, which was my first job at 15. Unlike my tenure in 1992, starting wage is above minimum wage. He thinks he’s going to get $400 a wk, I’m a bit concerned at how the dawn of taxes affects his burgeoning political identity

@STHGibbs @QuicoToro That “mi amor” is the equivalent of a Texan saying to you “aren’t you precious” or “bless your little heart”
