1/ South Korea's Constitutional Court to hold its first meeting tomorrow at 10am to begin deliberations on President Yoon Suk Yeol's impeachment, following his failed martial law declaration and subsequent parliament vote yesterday to impeach him. www.yna.co.kr/view/AKR2024...

I am going to say again, the popular aesthetic of cyberpunk as it is now, is hauntological, a lost future that looks cooler than the one we got; the practical material concerns of it, however, are something that we are living through to some degree or another, and getting worse.

President Yoon statement after the impeachment vote: "I will never give up."

The MIT Tech is censoring this op-ed. As a professor who experiences a decent amount of harassment, I'm actually sensitive to the concerns about Rus being targeted. But ultimately it is her choice to be complicit with a genocidal regime that murders Palestinians every day. medium.com/@freegazamfr...

Martial law commander says it was officers on the ground who resisted removing lawmakers from National Assembly. Says he knew of plan for state of emergency two days in advance koreaherald.com/view.php?ud=... @thekoreaherald.bsky.social

The special investigation bill on the insurrection was passed with 210 votes in favor. Only 200 votes are required for the impeachment of the president. It is almost certain that Yoon will be impeached this Saturday.

I kid you not, @itch.io has been taken down by Funko of "Funko Pop" because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called Brand Shield that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

she’s making a list, she’s checking it twice

sometimes I get really down, feeling like my art is stagnant so it’s like to see an obvious example that I have in fact gotten better 💀 the same two days, drawn four years ago in 2020 and then again this last week

My wife made a very strong point about this. What is different about Han directing state affairs and the Choi Soon-sil scandal that led to Park Geun-hye's impeachment? Han Dong-hoon is a very high profile civilian, but he is a civilian. He has no right to direct state affairs.

I love Mad Magazine

Genius. I like it. Dr. Lee here calls for the opposition Democratic Party to pass all laws the Yoon has previously vetoed. If Yoon really is powerless he can’t veto them now and neither can Prime Minister Han Deok-su. Show us real quick whether or not Yoon has in fact de facto resigned.

Chop Mi-ae, lawmaker for the opposition Democratic Party, has shared documents produced by the Counterintelligence Command showing that martial law was being planned in November. www.donga.com/news/amp/all...

“105 Sinners of History who sided with treason”

573 political scientists in and out of Korea have written and signed a declaration calling for Yoon's immediate impeachment. I've translated it into English with Prof. Jeong Hyun Kim at Yonsei: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Protecting you if things go wrong. The new Product Liability Directive enters into force. From today, as a 🇪🇺 consumer, you have more rights if something goes seriously wrong because of a product you bought. A win-win for European consumers and for business ↓ europa.eu/!NFwbfG

Since yesterday I was talking about Gates McFadden’s struggles to get behind the camera opportunities, it’s time for me to share a story about the Doctor and how she’s one of the reasons I’m a Professor. 🧵 (Here’s us at the 2024 #StarTrek convention #STLV)

Soldiers were deployed on 12/3 with explicit orders to arrest the following people: 이재명 - leader of the Democratic Party and likely next presidential candidate 우원식 - Democratic Party assemblyman and Speaker of the National Assembly

At 5 pm (3 hrs from now), the National Assembly votes for a special investigation into the first lady (long story), and then for impeachment right after. This was scheduled so any conservative party members walking out between votes can be caught on camera for the media—a "perp walk" if you will.

Soldiers who invaded the National Assembly are saying they were lied to:

BREAKING: Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez today vowed to add abortion rights and gay marriage to Spain’s constitution so they “can never be undone.”

Eerie 2016/2024 parallels making the rounds in Korea

so korean protesters at the impeach yoon party keep showing up with silly flags as a callback bc during the protests to impeach park geun hye politicians kept accusing protesters of having secret backers and to troll them, they created fake flags for absurd organizations. look at this one lmao

España necesita un nuevo sistema político para este nuevo tiempo, una República Plurinacional, con una Constitución feminista y ecologista que deje atrás la protección de las élites económicas, a la monarquía y a una justicia franquista. Rompamos ese candado del 78.

oh holy shit someone made a guillotine

absolutely incredible attack vector

This throwback hitting a bit different today.
