This sucks. Love Bruce Campbell. Fun story though: when I was a kid running a BBS out of my house without my parents knowing, a friend gave Campbell the BBS number during a press junket for Army of Darkness. And he called it! Left a message behind for the board users. It was super cool of him.

Florida wants its own CIA. That could lead to unchecked domestic surveillance | Seth Stern, Lauren Harper and Bobby Block A bill to create a state intelligence operation would allow scrutiny based on β€˜opinions’ – and could prompt other states to follow

β€œThe bill’s language allows scrutiny based on β€˜views’ and β€˜opinions’, a standard that echoes some of the darkest chapters of American surveillance history.”

A digital drawing of author Maia Kobabe, a white nonbinary person with short brown hair wearing a patterned blue shirt, who scowls while holding up a copy of eir book GENDER QUEER: A MEMOIR. Maia is saying: H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban my books, and any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps and say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

Don't be fooled by this bill's name-- this is a book banning bill that will exclude LGBTQ books from all public schools NATIONWIDE.

Call your congresspeople and tell them to VOTE NO on this nakedly bigoted book banning bullshit.

Ford 'doesn't know what he's talking about' when it comes to basket weaving, Indigenous artist says | CBC News A third-generation Indigenous basket maker is setting the record straight about his craft β€” it's a part of his culture, it's valuable, and artists can make a living off of it.

Ford's casually racist comments are a dog whistle I've heard my whole life, reflected in notions of "high" and "low" technology. Baskets are a technology, and STEM courses should be teaching their historical trajectory. You can trace colonization itself through basket tech www.cbc.ca/news/canada/...

Happy 5th Landing-iversary to the Perseverance Mars Rover!

I made this illustration to celebrate the landing 5 years ago and it’s still an all-time personal favorite.

One expert estimates Louisiana’s prison population will nearly double in six years because of the state’s changes to parole.
