So to catch you up to speed
Luigi Mangione is an innocent man who has not been confirmed to have been involved in any crime.
We have police documents confirming he was not DNA tested or fingerprinted, and confirmation no usable DNA or fingerprints were recovered at the crime scene due to incomplete prints and immense DNA contamination of New Yorks streets.
No evidence has linked him to the crime.
No facial recognition has even remotely come close to identifying the cctv suspects face as that of Luigi. His own family and friends do not see a resemblance. Most people agree the features in the cctv do not match the very well documented features of Luigi Mangione.
Luigi Mangione has no history of violence nor with firearms. He is a vegan pacifist with no history of mental illness and an aversion to killing even bugs.
He is still only a SUSPECT and all involvement in any crimes are merely ALLEGED at this time. Alleged by the most corrupt police force in the entire nation; the NYPD who do more organized crime than they've ever stopped.
Luigi Mangione's attorneys confirmed they have been shown absolutely nothing that even places Luigi at the scene of the crime.
People have repeatedly tried to recreate the entire timeline of events and found it is not physically possible to do what was alleged in the time frame police gave. Especially dubious for Luigi Mangione to have done given his recent, crippling back injury.
Luigi Mangione in his own words has said police planted evidence on him and are not being honest about his arrest or what he had on him at the time.
There is no body cam footage of Luigi's arrest.
There is no autopsy report for Brian Thompson.
Luigi has so far been:
Stripped of his hat, jacket and shoes and forced to walk in the cold in December wearing wet socks.
Forced to urinate on himself where police then took and published humiliation photos of him.
He was then stripped of his shirt pants and socks and put in a blue psychiatric gown and strapped to a chair inmates called "the torture chair" and left for prolonged periods of time. To the point the entire inmate population at the prison protested in anger.
He was slammed unto a brick wall, choked, and shoved by various police officers for no reason.
Was marched through nyc at gunpoint by officers with military firearms, forced to wear chains
Was called a murderer by the mayor of NYC on national television.
Was then placed in solitary confinement for weeks. Something extremely damaging psychologically to be exposed to for even just a few days. Something usually reserved for cannibals.
He is now being forced to sleep on the floor despite again, a crippling back injury.
Again, he has not even had trial yet. He is an innocent man by the very definition of the law. He has nothing tying him to any crime. And even the crime itself was a nobody being shot in a city where nobodies are shot everyday, seven days a week. And those shooters don't get this treatment. Cannibals don't get this treatment. Serial killers don't get this treatment. Why are they doing this? Because we entered an oligarchy and they want people who are rich to matter more than people who are not. The NO ONE, no name, insignificant person that Brian THOMPSON always was and WILL ALWAYS BE is more important because of his net worth, to the fascist oligarchy we've entered into, than the innocent man, data scientist and robotics engineer with a promising future that is Luigi Mangione.
The NYPD doesn't want him to be innocent. They are torturing him gleefully and postponing his trial because they know he's innocent. They just want to scare the public into understanding that the ultra rich, even those who's names will never be remembered as anything other than markings on a never visited tombstone, are the only persons who matter now. Not yours. Never yours. You're poor. They'll torture you without a trial too. Your life means nothing to them. Your children dying in school shootings means nothing to them. Pinning a crime on an innocent man they can beat to scare the public out of class consciousness is the only thing that matters to them now. Depose them.
imagine someone winning a Grammy off of a diss track about you
not just one Grammy. FIVE of them. as many Grammy awards as you've won in your entire career, he won in one night off of a diss track about you.
Fun thing about football right now is that there's a move called the "brotherly shove" that the Eagles do when they're very close to scoring, where the whole team puts their hands on the ass of the guy with the ball and physically propels him over the line into the endzone for the touchdown, and all the other teams' fans hate it because it's got such a ridiculously high rate of success for the Eagles and doesn't really seem to work for any other team. People are straight-up calling for this move to be banned, claiming it's "unstoppable" and gives an "unfair advantage" but it really and truly is a skill issue. The whole league hates this move because it only makes the Eagles win more often and nobody else can figure out how to do it right
Other teams are so afraid of it that they panic and do some wacky looney tunes shit to try and stop it. The refs had to come out on the field and tell the bad guys to stop doing this
because it's blatantly against the rules of football, and that if they tried it a fourth time in a row that they would just straight-up grant a free touchdown to the Eagles
The rest of the NFL: this move doesn't work for us but it always works for the eagles... how do we stop them, we've tried everything... Washington Commanders Linebacker Frankie Luvu: ...not everything... Washington Commanders Linebacker Frankie Luvu:

on it boss
reminder that the presenter says "oh, shut up" not "can it"
Native French speaker here. "Ta gueule" is actually more like "shut the fuck up" in terms of level of disrespect
also worth noting is that the "are you happy" is the correct gender

It's so sweet how so many Grimmjow fans call him "King" because of what he titled himself, like he didn't get his shit kicked in by an Ichigo that couldn't even scratch fckn, Nnoitora, and like there aren't SIX other espada above him, not counting Nel, three of which could make a stronger claim to that title on the basis of being Vasto Lordes, and the fourth being the literal actual ageless King of Hueco Mundo before becoming arrancar. And that's not mentioning big daddy Aizen who swooped in and currently rules Hueco Mundo complete with a palace and an army. Like, don't get me wrong I love Grimmjow both as a character and as a foil to Ichigo but it's low key adorable to see him called 'King' in fanworks when he has nothing to back that title up except deciding to call himself that.

“America IS walkable, you’re all just lazy” my childhood home was an hour from the nearest hospital (by car)
not all Americans are lazy suburbanites, some of us genuinely have to drive miles and miles and hours and hours to buy clothes, grocery shop, see doctors or do anything, really.
notice how in movies they show you New York and costal SoCal and not like, middle of nowhere North Dakota.
I wish this was my job.
I mean, “Emily” is a nice enough name for a girl.
There, I just earned $1000.
I've read about her! She mostly works with Chinese parents to pick appropriate sounding English names for their children to use later in life. See, Chinese names do not tend to work well outside of China because of how tonal and unique the phonetics can be and how few international documents allow the symbols. Rather than sign their kids up for either never working or traveling abroad or constantly being disrespected on accident, many parents give them backup English first names in addition to their Chinese first names.
However, the problem arises that Chinese parents do not always know English naming connotations any more than I would know Chinese ones, and there’s a LOT of very deep cultural traditions involved in naming your kids, so they can't just grab a popular baby names list and call it good. So some poor kids get names that were direct English translations of those Chinese naming sensibilities that didn't translate well (a friend of mine in College had to help a tutoring student with name change paperwork so she wouldn't have to go by Lush. My dad knew a guy who narrowly dodged the first name Rolex, but his name ended up Cash, thankfully. That sort of thing) or names that ARE English name's but have... unfortunate connotations (think Karen or Hannibal), or names that are just very outdated (Bertha, Ethyl, Quintin, Norbert, etc.). And without becoming world travellers or investing a shitton of time in learning way more about other cultures than they really need to for daily lifw, your average lower to middle class parents couldn't really guarantee that the names they gave their kids would actually help them, thereby risking continuing the cycle of social stratification and limiting upward mobility.
So this woman learns this, and goes "Oh, I know how to fix this!" And she starts a business where Chinese parents can email her with a list of things that they want their children's names to mean or reflect, auspicious elements they want, etc, and she pools her knowledge of English speaking cultural norms and a bunch of baby name guides to email them a short list of names that meet their needs with little descriptions of each one explaining what it means and how people will think of it, and they can pick a meaningful name in accordance with their cultural traditions that won't screw their kids over later.
Also important to note that in Chinese culture names are incredibly important. Some even believe the name will directly effect a child's growth and success, others name for health etc. Its not what sounds good the combination of characters has to make sense. I remember once a young couple wanted name their baby in relation to water but their choice of characters made them change their mind after a relative said it was a bad name because it phonetically sounded too much like "still born". Most western people with western names do not encounter the "oh what does your name mean?" Because often its based on how a name sounds or named after someone.
Fun little story. My brother was renamed 3 times because he was a sick baby, and it was thought the name had too much of a certain element or too turbulent or too slow. Translated his name use to mean eternal ocean currents. Then it went to eternal streams. Then I settled on eternal waterfall.
My name means eternal prismatic clouds. However its very masculine. When I got very sick the first thing my dad did was attempt to change my name to related to books and poetry more feminine because he thought the masculine energy was making me sick. Which i declined because I told him it had taken me 2 decades to learn to like my name and understand what it means to me. To rename me related to books and poetry felt too confined (to the pages) which was what I felt most of my life until I was an adult, and learned that I had to be malleable, and be able to consciously shift my perspective and to also just relax and mull over things without actually thinking..which is exactly what you do when you are cloud watching or looking for rainbows. Two activities I loved to do but never did because I thought I had to be grounded- not up in the clouds, and only when I allowed myself let my mind wander and play with ideas in a less critical and urgent way...was I happier...and as my mom says "youre much sunnier now...just the way I wanted you to be when you were born"
Also my gramps was also like "do not change her name. Things will be fine. Don't change it will cause more problems. The storm will pass."
If its not apparent there is alot of thematic symbolism in names.
