- I want things to be different - *smashes everything* - oh no

I think about this comic at least once a week

Also wanted to say, the success of and general reception of films like Sinners and Nosferatu is truly giving me hope for art and humanity. Vampire movies truly always save us but also and still and always #teamvampire (now, invite me in) 💀🪦🥀

"Good luck to the Great people of Canada. Elect the man who has the strength and wisdom to cut your taxes in half, increase your military power, for free, to the highest level in the World, have your Car, Steel, Aluminum, Lumber, Energy, and all other businesses, QUADRUPLE in size, WITH ZERO TARIFFS OR TAXES, if Canada becomes the cherished 51st. State of the United States of America. No more artificially drawn line from many years ago. Look how beautiful this land mass would be. Free access with NO BORDER. ALL POSITIVES WITH NO NEGATIVES. IT WAS MEANT TO BE! America can no longer subsidize Canada with the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars a year that we have been spending in the past. It makes no sense unless Canada is a State!"

complete batshit insanity

While the next to follow will be their own man with their own agenda, one thing we can say is, based on that 110 of the 138 members of were appointed by Francis, the next pope will likely share priorities with the last.

Andrew Cuomo Used ChatGPT For His Housing Plan "Addressing New York's Housing Crisis" features garbled text and a citation from ChatGPT.

Andrew Cuomo's policy paper on affordable housing, released this weekend, was written with the help of ChatGPT and was released rife with typos, in some parts devolving into unintelligible gibberish. hellgatenyc.com/andrew-cuomo...

Cronyism is indeed one of fascism's aspects

Just planted a bunch of peas—here's hoping the anti-slug efforts hold up

The goal is to terrorize federal workers into quitting. That’s it. Constant changes. Canceling work from home then closing offices. Laying off probationary employees. It’s designed to break the government. Then privatize it for profit. It’s not efficiency. It’s collapse. Only peasants will suffer.

Many forget that before “The Birth of a Nation”, KKK membership was dwindling. But the movie depicted them positively and was even praised by President Wilson. Membership exploded. Endorsing and praising white supremacists and nazi sympathizers by the President today can lead us down the same road.

I know it's a college lit mag, but I'm celebrating this win; there's a ton of competition for Pathos—and I'm not in any English or Writing major.

A child died from it today.

It’s been 10 years since someone has died from measles.

Written after Bushnell's act of extreme protest. 25-02-2024 A child of peace, long weaned on faith That forebears, all, shun enmities, A child of war, now weaned on deith, So long forborne of niceties, First met, without, in sea of streams, Deluded lives well dramatized, Now meet within a sea of screams, Dispelling minds well hypnotized. Their pain, once seen, coagulates In vain, for efforts can’t align Ere volunteer self-immolates, To spark, perchance, free Palestine. A martyr ashed, a choice extolled, But can it cleanse our mired souls?

Written after Bushnell's act of extreme protest. Thought I'd share.

THIS IS WHAT WE NEED

3.5% or 11 million of us standing with the Vets is all we need to affect change! 👇👇👇👇

"The problem is financial waste,"
He chided, squinting at our sheets
And smirked, our citadel debased,
Yet ignorant we kept receipts

Despite our leave, we bureaucrats
Left Ma'at's wards against fiat

Apostasy

O, hallowed, wisend one above,
Why deign you daily test resolve
Thy faithful legislate thy love
Our piety may soon dissolve

Apostates, Four, fel borne of Chan
Now rip and rend thy government
Directed by some fallen man
Of emerald glow and Muskie scent

Trump idolizes and wants to teturn to the guilded age, huh?

And to think my Con Law professor said that Substantive Economic Due Process is a dead doctrine. Guess we'll see veneration of liberty of the contract as a fundamental right again!

Using the Boolean search term "-AI"

Without cussing

It looks like cussing proves to be a fix for ridding your search results pf the AI overview.

You may want to mix up the cuss in certain searches. I can see "f*cking great tits" not working as an ornithologist intends.

Trump does not pause and consider constitutionality, whether a bill will pass. He has dazzled by the sheer inundation on all fronts.

You *can* fight fire with fire. Firefighters do it via "backfiring." And controlled fires, as native peoples have done forever, is viable mitigation.

Fight with fire

Working title: Forward Unto Dusk

Ehat are You
that luminous You
here with me now?
the void calls, Ehat,
and though i stride forth
spritely into certain
oblivion
i shall carry Your name
through annihilation
and extol it
to what gods
lounge and laze
beyond this neglected
firmament, lies
providence
at my
core i
beam still
i tremble

Lunacy
