But here’s where I’m at now: why is all of this porn, even the stuff that doesn’t feature sex? I once read a definition of porn that went something like “Anything that is purely indulgent, without any interest in prompting reflection or posing any challenge.”

Okay so Male Fantasies is a 1977 book written by Klaus Theweleit, a sociologist who grew up in post-war Germany grappling with the male culture of his parents and grandparents, essentially, and how it led to the Freikorps and eventually the Nazis.

Even if one accepts the framing that there is no such thing as a civilian because of mass conscription (false, dumb, wrong) this is still affirmatively morally abhorrent and if you believe it you are a Nazi

Staples Rezoning: Results
STATEMENT FROM COUNCIL MEMBER
KAYLA SANTOSUOSSO
For the last several months I have been in negotiations with the developers for the Staples property. While this is likely one of the last rezoning votes I can make in Bay Ridge, negotiations were still heavily shaped by the charter changes that take effect in January.
The developers made clear that if the Council did not approve a modified project, they would take advantage of the new rules to resubmit at their original building - or an even bigger, denser building - for expedited approval and with no wins for our community.Staples Rezoning: Results

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

One of my formative political experiences is the anger that I felt when, after Clinton achieved robust short-term federal fiscal health, every GOP-run state used the opportunity to cut their taxes, *then* Republicans gutted federal revenue the moment they had the chance.

I'm kind of busy right now, but just for the record: the chance that the remains being returned from Greece to Bulgaria in the coming days are those of Tsar Samuil is close to zero. It's embarrassing political theatre, and some Western medievalists and Byzantinists are falling for it.

Peter Magyar is currently enacting a Liberal Currents fantasy where he amends the constitution to ban anyone associated with the old regime from ever holding office again and is somehow polling at 68% (he won with 53%) and I’m not saying that’s possible anywhere else but Dems should like, ask him

Conor claims the problem is that he didn't know about this particular case in which Rufo was a racist liar, but the issue is in fact that Rufo has shown over and over that he is a racist liar, and has even said explicitly that he is a racist liar.

kind of funny that Benedict's social conservatism is basically how 95% of trads understood him when the man was infinitely more complex
“Back to Europe. A third model was added to the two models of the 19th century: socialism. Socialism took two main paths — the democratic and the totalitarian one. Democratic socialism became a healthy counterbalance to radically liberal positions in both existing models. It enriched and corrected them. It proved itself even when religious confessions took over. In England, it was the Catholic party, which felt at home neither in the Protestant-Conservative nor in the Liberal camp. Also in Wilhelmine Germany, the Catholic center could continue to feel closer to democratic socialism than to the conservative powers. In many ways, democratic socialism stands and stood close to the Catholic social teachings. It in any case contributed a substantial amount to the education of social conscience.”

A candle on a windowsill of an open window to an evening scene, along a framed image beside it. A lightning emerges from the candle instead of smoke - on the top of the picture, an upside down desert is depicted, lit by sunset and a burning stylized tree, and the lightning merges into that fire. Dense smoke from the fire "rises" to the bottom of the drawing, merging into the starry sky above the roofs and tree gardens.

Theft of substance botfrens.com/collections/69/content…
"Theft of Substance," from the collection of Remedios Varo, depicts a surreal scene where cloaked figures gather mysteriously around a small fire. The otherworldly atmosphere is accentuated by figures on the right, seemingly suspended, creating an enigmatic and eerie composition characteristic of Varo's imaginative style.
