To me, a Nazi salute means, "I want to murder your family." There can be no irony about it: It puts deep anger and hatred in my heart to see it done and I will never forgive anyone who justifies or minimizes it.

It's actually happening. A IRL Winamp physical device.

File an extension so you can wait to see what happens by October... lol

Noise & Texture 2.0 has been in dev for a bit, but it's finally almost ready for release. a sneak peek:

It's dangerous to go alone! Take this. F*ck the fascists and the feckless wealthy class that shrug as they move to eradicate or enslave you.

There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part; you can’t even passively take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop.

Here are the options. How many of you are willing to be boots on the ground as we face this very dangerous situation. We’ve done it before, and we’ll do it again. Will you be there?

It would be fantastic if major federal institutions would acknowledge that the executive branch cannot legally unilaterally cancel or redistribute congressionally appropriated funding on ideological grounds and thus they have no legal obligation to comply with such directives

I am so incredibly tired of fighting the fascists. They're winning and nothing I do, be it volunteering, engaging in local and state politics, etc have had any effect on stopping Trump from unilaterally enacting Project 2025. #help

I think some people hear “grants” and think that without them, scientists and government workers just have less stuff to play with at work. But grants fund salaries for students, academics, researchers, and people who work in all areas of public service. “Pausing” grants means people don’t eat.

When I daydream about a Democratic Party that learns messaging, the slogan I imagine is: Get the Government You Pay For. Clean air and water? You pay for that. You should get it. Medicare and Social Security? You paid for that. You should get it. Your kids’ education? Safe food? Roads?

If you’re in the US and you’d like to know what projects and vital services federal grants currently fund in your state, you can search here: www.usaspending.gov And you can find the contact information for your elected representatives here: www.usa.gov/elected-offi... They need to hear from you.

Never forget. I have the memory of the holocaust in my body for two reasons. I read and saw Art Spiegelman's Maus and Steven Spielberg's Schindler's List when I was 13. And the words of my grandmother (who wasn't Jewish). 3 decades ago, she asked me to continue carrying the memory. And so I do.

As a fun little game, try reading every new headline exactly as it’s written but replace the US with any other country and see how quickly it starts to sound like a US Senator describing rationale for invading and overthrowing a totalitarian foreign regime. 🙃

From this day forth, Tesla cars will now be known as Swastikars.
