Putin stood by the stream at dusk and thought, "It's been a very, very good week."

Breathing is a lie. An addiction that Big Air want you to never quit. Does it really make sense you'd need to breathe SO many times a day? It's just like chips. You have to have self-control. Wean yourself from breathing and be free

"Oh, he isn't real. He's just a composite face, put together by a computer." Kirby was reading rooms that weren't even built yet.

One of Stalin's stupidest, and most damaging to the USSR's security, moves was killing off his high command prior to Hitler's invasion. The invasion was a total shock to him; he had thought Hitler and he would divide up Europe. Sounds nothing like now of course www.youtube.com/watch?v=BOio...

In retrospect it's kind of easy to see why Weber's career didn't take off like it seemed it would after WINGS www.youtube.com/watch?v=ryeH...

Shocking but never surprising. The thing that annoys me too, is that in Britain some of the best, most socially revered and profitable art and artists, comes from or is about the working class! www.theguardian.com/culture/2025...

Using American technology is a national security risk

For decades, the US government has painstakingly kept American science #1 globally—and every facet of American life has improved because of it. The internet? Flu shot? Ozempic? All grew out of federally-funded research. Now all that's being dismantled. 1/ www.technologyreview.com/2025/02/21/1...

I remember seeing this in class as a kid, I suppose around 1978, made me obsessed with protozoans for a few months www.youtube.com/watch?v=SSOd...

The DNC acting like they have a mandate to try to get along with the Republicans and agree wherever they can: TO WHAT PURPOSE when the Rs are tearing the government and the economy to little shreddy things? Opposition parties OPPOSE & OBSTRUCT & SLOW DOWN THE BASTARDS. We don't WANT you to get along

Todd Solondz' THE PARENT TRAP

Lars Von Trier's POLLYANNA

I repeat: Drumpf and Noel Skum are to this nation, in every way, what cancer is to the human body. Example, the firings: replacing functional cells with malevolent trash cells that occupy where the healthy ones were, but no longer perform any function but crowding out & killing the remaining life.

This would be, for whomever is ordering this, all very opportune.

I remember the first HOWARD I read was in 1977 when I was 8, the Treasury with the new Defenders story, plus Howard's pre-series appearances and #1. (I loved Treasury editions as a kid) I remember Garko the Man-Frog. I fell in love.

It's been one fucking month.

Pictured: Trump and Putin

A great song and a great opening. In O LUCKY MAN!, more than half the time when Price's songs come on, we simply show them playing, and the song is not over the action. I like this choice. It's not the case with EVERY song but it's great here. "When no one can tempt you with Heaven or Hell..."

You realize that now, there's no way Trump can ever let the Democrats take Congress again. Even if they are cowards being in the majority sometimes emboldens them for about 6 weeks.

I know nothing matters anymore but this is like 100 Harding Administrations' worth of corrupt
