If you live in Louisiana, go check your voter registration. Even if you already checked. This morning mine was fine. Just now I was showing someone how to check and it had changed me to inactive. So they are changing people to inactive as recently as this afternoon.

Texas has suspended over 1.2 million voter registrations. Many valid voters in Texas have found their voter registrations were somehow canceled when they checked. Check your registration here and fix it immediately - Texas doesn't always honor provisional ballots cast on election day.

I'd love to credit whoever wrote this. No idea. But I'm 100% with its message. When I think of how the '80s ethos, "Greed is Good" has metastasized, it surprises and depresses me. Imagine having so many millions, hundred of millions, even billions & caring about nothing except your own vanity.

My favorite Sam Neil fact will always be that he designed a future Australian flag that replaces the union jack with the aboriginal flag for Event Horizon and insisted the film use it.

Hey, fellas, before you write that white hot take about how rape is such a tricky thing and, I mean, who can really say what happened and, you know, maybe we should not be too judgmental, I'd like to remind you that instead you can simply shut the fuck up.

Happy Ēostre! Prints of this comic (and others) available in my shop - link in bio
Scene is WAITROSE CUSTOMER SERVICES DESK. Behind it is a staff member, whose name we will soon learn is BECKY. She is dealing with a customer, for now out of shot, while talking to her manager on the phone.

BECKY [on phone]: 
Yeah, hiya...

2
BECKY:
Yes I have a customer here who wants to complain about the Easter eggs.

3
BECKY [putting hand over receiver while addressing the customer stood at the desk in front of her]:
Sorry what was your name again?

4
[Pull back to show the customer is a very tall, green-skinned, PAGAN GODDESS, festooned with flowers. Stood next to her is her son, a normal human teenager in a hoodie, who looks mortified by his mum.]

PAGAN GODDESS:
Eostre the Pagan Goddess of Fertility

5
BECKY
Sorry -
Your name is Easter…?

PAGAN GODDESS:
Eostre.

6

[Vicky pauses, trying to take this in]. 

VICKY:
Your name is Easter and you want to complain about the Easter eggs.

7
PAGAN GODDESS:
Sorry love, what’s your name?

BECKY:
Becky

PAGAN GODDESS:
Well, Vicky -

8
PAGAN GODDESS:
If it was you who’d shagged the solar god of the Equinox to give birth to an actual living god - my son Darren here -

TEENAGE BOY:
Muuum…

9
PAGAN GODDESS:
….only to have all your efforts totally forgotten by history, you’d have a complaint too!

10
PAGAN GODDESS:
Aisle four is full of products, with no hint of the true meaning of the festival!

11
BECKY:
You mean… Jesus…?

PAGAN GODDESS:
I mean shagging, Vicky.

12
PAGAN GODDESS:
Is it too much to see  just a little bit of pre-Christian sex in Aisle 4?

TEENAGE BOY:
MUUUUM

[Ends]

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

The Sopranos is probably the Rosetta Stone of modern American reaction: it consists of people who bemoan the loss of an imagined past they mainly got from movies, claim victimization based on identity but hate when others do it, and view the people who build the society they prey on as suckers.

The quiet part out loud. But what Watters isn’t saying—and what is most critical to understand—is that the right’s entire model is top-down. It’s funded by and totally in service of capital. The conservative movement is a corporate counterrevolution, funded by the biggest money in America.
