Great Masha Gessen op-ed.

Every morning, a new story about how many Palestinians were killed by Israeli troops while looking for food. But we’re supposed to believe Iran is the big bad.

The United States Government is openly complicit in human trafficking.

Thinking about my favorite anti-war cartoon

LGBTQ+ horror icon Mark Patton is struggling with Long COVID, HIV and Meniere's - his niece has posted a GFM for help with medical treatments, home care and more. www.gofundme.com/f/unite-for-...

Sports can also be used for diplomacy, as well! They create a a perfect space for cultural exchange and backchannel meetings! Follow @karimzidan.com if you want to learn more on the links between sports and politics!

New MushTube video is up, looking at the Microgenre of "Horror at the Mall"! Jonny takes a look at my suggestion and nails it! CC: @crypticus.bsky.social www.youtube.com/watch?v=w82i...

An incredibly relevant snippet for those who struggle to hold multiple simultaneous truths in their heads.

A perfect example of how center-left attempts to counter the far right are trash: make the far right conspiracies seem partially reasonable (“real concerns”) and then offer a solution that you think might appeal to them by throwing a subgroup under the bus (here, level 1 ASD / Asperger’s).

If you’re an American should watch the Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown ep on Iran. A deeply humanizing look at a country full of people just like you and me. I watched it after Anthony died and it moved in ways that are hard to relay. I also immediately ran out to try kabob koobideh and tahdig.

Follow up question: Will Mr. Hobby's "Mr. Cement S" or Tamiya plastic cement suffice as the glue? Or will I need to get that too?

@edzitron.com, you've talked about the high cost of Nvidia's Blackwell cards on the show before, but LTT took a look at these RTX 4090s being re-manufactured with more VRAM for use with LLMs in China. Might explain how Deepseek was able to get the compute they needed. www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZgQ...

Plastic crack, indeed... Little dudes remind me of Briarios from Appleseed, so I had to get them.

I hated this racist shit the first time I saw it during the Gulf War and it just keeps getting worse. This isn’t a fucking video game

just gonna keep posting this bc

I nominate RJ City for the Order of Canada

That's what makes respectability politics sinister: when marginalized groups are put into a situation by external forces, those same external forces will try to convince the marginalized that *only* if they behaved "properly," they'd be accepted. Except, even if done, the marginalization remains.

This is the worst possible time for Canada to be negotiating a closer security relationship with a hostile and unstable United States. Mark Carney should pull back from his efforts to cozy up to Trump for a security deal.

The United States is a rogue state and must be condemned by the international community.

The United States is a threat to global peace and is actively dismantling any semblance of an international rules-based order through its own actions and its continued backing of Israel’s lawlessness. You can’t shout “peace!” after attacking a sovereign country in violation of international law.

New Paradise Lost just to continue to drive @glaciallymusical.bsky.social mad with their ever-growing discography youtu.be/fKeo6gCvuBs

My life is much better since I've learned to lift weights, stop taking baits, and to let people be wrong as Hell about non-critical things without trying to correct them.

forever tapping the sign its a mix of the usual bullshit and That One Episode of CSI

I looked good today. Not sorry.

One of my fave songs ever gotten to do and very empowering lyrically as a #nonbinary artist. Justin is a great ally and we worked on this tune a long time. His playing is ballistic on it!

Who do I know in Pittsburgh? More specifically Allentown?

I'll say this: Growing up in the rural Pacific Northwest and listening to things people have been saying there over the past 20 years makes what's happening today a lot less surprising. Timothy McVeigh was an inspiration to white supremacists I met on construction sites.

Evergreen episode! For those who missed it, please enjoy this classic episode where The Professor & I talk lotsa smack about lotsa stuff in THE FILTH CHAMBER... #MetalSky #DeathMetal #Crypticus Megatrends In Brutality podcast #18: youtu.be/evD14R1fDp8?...

So it’s looking like some projects are ending soon, so if any of my editor friends have a need for a letterer on any upcoming minis or ongoings, let me know! I’d love to work with you.
