The Spain of the Midwest

And other links for your Sunday

I am in Wisconsin this weekend for a little summer break. I call Wisconsin the Spain of the Midwest because we all go here for cheap booze, cheap vacations, and access to the water. Spain and Wisconsin also both have a lot of Catholics, cheese, and ham, and both places like to dabble in fascism.

Normally, I have some thoughts or a little essay before the links, but right now I have no thoughts.

I will, however, remind you that I am running a hot socialist summer sale! And if you’ve been meaning to subscribe for these elite links harvested from the internet and brought to you by me and my assistant editor, Isabella, then today is your day.
