Megan thee Stallion as Jolyne 💚

Ugh, all the book events I was supposed to be a guest at are starting to kick off, and I'm sad I'm not there and mad that the reason is "there's a non-zero chance that ICE would illegally kidnap and torture my wife."

Daily #1699 - Staircase Nap

Los Angeles is not a war zone. The media keeps cropping the same damn photo to make it look like it is. There are plenty of live feeds going on right now that verify what is actually happening on the ground in real time. Nothing. The only unrest is coming from Trump & his thugs.

I don’t care if you’re black, white, brown, yellow, purple - at the end of the day there’s only ONE race and that’s the human race. BE HUMAN. Practice humanity.

TODAY, I am joined by @cisneros.house.gov, @congresstran.bsky.social, @chirla-org.bsky.social & @aclu.org at the Adelanto ICE Processing Center to demand answers about unjustly detained immigrants after targeted raids on LA businesses. ICE is denying us entry but we won’t stop demanding answers.

NOW - I am outside Adelanto ICE processing facility with @chu.house.gov, @congresstran.bsky.social, and members of @chirla-org.bsky.social and the @aclu.org. I came here to conduct Congressional oversight. Instead, they denied us entry and locked the gates. We will not stop demanding answers.

There is no bigger story right now than the White House asserting that California residents are in a state "of rebellion against the authority of the Government of the United States."

The crackdowns on civilians and the threat of the national guard being sent to LA should be *the* most important story right now-- not the Trump/Musk feud or whatever the f**k that was. People are being terrorized all over the country. News outlets need to get it together.

The best place to get coverage of the protests in LA is from video from individuals on the scene. The totalitarian government is lying about them and the traditional media is largely unreliable — complicit or fatuously both-sidesey.

So, apparently, the company that owns the Big 4 sewing pattern companies (and Perler fusible beads among other brands) just sold those assets to a liquidation company. Those are the last printers of tissue paper sewing patterns AFAIK. Kind of crazy. craftindustryalliance.org/parent-compa...

my single favorite piece of Battletech artwork. Obvious inspiration for my take, using the Mechwarrior 4 version of the Mad Dog/Vulture.

Researchers at Loughborough University looked out at the state of the world and created the world's smallest violin--1/8th the width of a human hair. They say it's a nanotechnology demonstration, but come on. (It's not playable, alas.) 🧪 www.lboro.ac.uk/news-events/...

House and Senate negotiators tasked with finding a path on education reform didn't talk about funding, governance or taxes this week. They fought over scheduling. www.vermontpublic.org/local-news/2...

ICE raids hit across Los Angeles today—and locals are rising up. This is what resistance looks like. ✊🏾 This was about an hour ago…

the fact that ICE is now targeting children’s graduations is so fucking sadistic and foul. literally trying to take parents away from their children on what’s supposed to be special memories for these kids. how are people not more sick by this shit?

if you have attended a final fantasy prerelease, i would like to see your decklist 👀

On June 6, 1944, 81 years ago, the US and allied troops landed on the beaches of Normandy to liberate Europe from Hitler’s tyrannic rule. These brave soldiers gave their lives to defend democracy. We must honor them by continuing the fight against authoritarianism and fascism in all its forms.

The Bigger & Weirder tour starts one week from today - at which time we'll also have a brand-spankin'-new online merch store! So for the next week, we're drastically reducing prices on all soon-to-be-discontinued Weird Al items... grab 'em while you can at shop.weirdal.com!

Asking for a ten year ban on AI regulation is an admission from these companies (through their powerful lobby) that they are knowingly committing crimes that they should and would otherwise be facing hefty legal challenges and penalties for.

When you see any Democrat talk about welcoming Elon into their tent, remember the salute. You saw exactly what you saw, and they saw it too.

I wish them both the worst.

Calling the company two-faced for depicting itself as a "white knight of the AI industry" while allegedly lying about AI scraping, Reddit has painted Anthropic as the worst among the major AI players.
