Saturday, July 25th, 2015mural of IWW labor organizer Joe Hill vandalized by nationalists who painted a US flag over it.
Josh and Heidi Belka stood before what was once their mural of Joe Hill, which had boldly declared that “the capitalist class” killed him.
The mural — depicting the labor cause’s world-famous martyr, who was executed in Utah nearly 100 years ago — went up last week on the side of the International Alliance of Theatrical Stage Employees’ union building, at 526 W. 800 South in Salt Lake City.
“Fire Your Boss,” “Abolish the Wage System,” “Murdered by the Capitalist Class” and other phrases bordered a portrait of Hill and some of his protest song lyrics.
The union had voted to put up a mural, a project that the Belkas — who are members — took up. But sometime Monday night, someone painted over the mural with an American flag, destroying the Belkas’ project, two and a half years in the making.

Wednesday, June 17th, 2015Remember how it was really great that Fury Road didn’t feel the need to show you the wives being sexually assaulted and abused? That you trusted their experiences without having to wallow in scenes graphically showing you what happened?
Yeah, the Furiosa comic book didn’t go that direction.
Sigh.
Oh man. Things of note for people who get triggered. ^^^
