Quite proud of this pic of a paper wasp. As a Friend of Arthropods I am constantly trying to get a good pic of a very small animal without scaring or hurting it and this was the best of several less auspicious efforts

I’m so sorry, Robin. I tend to hurl myself into fantasy literature when this sort of thing happens. A friend recommended the Chrestomanci books by Diana Wynne Jones and they’re great.

The War on Terror Paved the Way for Trump's Riseβ€”Now He's Making It His Own Only the total abolition of the DHS can restore freedom.

NEW @thenation.com: The tools of the War on Terror must be destroyed before Trump uses them to finish building his world order, at home and abroad. What we did at home yesterday is what we do in Iran today is what we will do at home tomorrow. The way we break the cycle is straightforward: abolition.

DOJ releases Epstein files with accusations against Trump Over the course of four interviews in 2019, a woman told the FBI that Epstein and Trump sexually abused her in the 1980s.

β€œA DOJ source told the Miami Herald that agents found her to be credibleβ€”and that they would not have interviewed her four times if they thought she was lying.”

trump is taking political hits on iran is because he is now undermining his supporters' ability to win online arguments. you can just own them ruthlessly on the iran thing now for being dumdums. and this they cannot bear. they can tolerate any amount of murder and mayhem, but not being owned online

Optical illusion of a woman bent over some papers. Her sunglasses are pushed up and she is wearing a hair band so the top of her head looks exactly like a Muppet face

Couple things here:

1. What the fuck
2. I am allllllmost more offended by the suggestion that I would give this shitbox edit than having my identity stolen
3. The CEO is scheduled to be on Decoder soon and we will see if they back out!

Founder Mike Richardson out at Dark Horse after 40 years After 40 years, Dark Horse founder and CEO Mike Richardson has exited the company, reportedly in a move to "modernize and strengthen" the company

Just now seeing this one. Kind of shocking, though Mike has certainly been around a while. It’s like Spielberg getting let go from Dreamworks. Hope there’s a clear path forward; this is one of the best comics publishers still around

Tesla sued after Austin shooting suspect allegedly assaulted co-worker A 65-year-old woman says the automaker ignored warning signs before Ndiaga Diagne, the suspect in Sunday’s mass shooting, assaulted her. She sued Thursday.

the Austin mass shooter was a Tesla employee who assaulted a coworker during a company-allowed prayer break late last year

the company refused to give the victim her assailant's name so she could press charges, and he went on to become a mass shooter
