RIP to Ron Spears, one of the all time great Magic artists. His work, equal parts otherworldly and evocative, was a huge part of what drew me to the game as a kid. He was one of the best artists in fantasy and it's heartbreaking to see him go.

It is always the case that any radical action by workers to resist the power of capital is "violence" but the constant suffering of poverty, absence of healthcare, hunger, surveillance, wage theft and the rest of it, well... that doesn't really count as "violence."

the democrats deliberately boosted the candidacy of donald trump and ran status-quo empty suits against him and those brilliant strategies got the US two trump terms. a few oddly still have the audacity to blame the left for their lack of enthusiasm in cheering on these obviously awful plans

I’m sorry to say this folks but we have to bring bullying back. We need to bully children off the internet. At this point I am not above it. Go put on a propeller hat little man. Ride a bike. Kick a ball.

Interesting www.wsj.com/us-news/igno...

Months after Epstein’s 2006 arrest in Palm Beach on charges of unlawful sex acts with a minor, Epstein received an email that was signed by Stanley Pottinger, a New York attorney and former assistant attorney general for civil rights under Presidents Richard Nixon and Gerald Ford.

“It’s been awhile since we’ve seen each other, but reading about the excesses of the Palm Beach cops, I had to drop you a line of support,” Pottinger wrote in a note forwarded to Epstein in September 2006. “The small minded of the world don’t like thinkers and doers, especially when they succeed.”

He told Epstein the situation would pass and that he looked forward to “hearing the funny side of this thing.”

Pottinger, _who went on to represent victims against Epstein_, died in November 2024.

To avoid the possibility Holocaust remembrance might lead to empathy for migrants, Trump's antisemitism envoy claims Anne Frank "was in Amsterdam legally." In reality, Margot Frank received a summons to go to a labor camp on July 5, 1942. After ignoring this call, they were in Amsterdam illegally.

Tweet from Rabbi Yehuda Kaploun: "Ignorance like this cheapens the horror of the Holocaust. Anne Frank was in Amsterdam legally and abided by Dutch law. She was hauled off to a death camp because of her race and religion. Her story has nothing to do with the illegal immigration, fraud, and lawlessness plaguing Minnesota today.

Our brave law enforcement should be commended, not tarred with this historically illiterate and antisemitic comparison."

On discord, friends and I play Wordle a lot and my younger brother had the idea of tracking new wordle patterns, or wordle scorigamis. I made a bot for exactly that and wrote about how I did it. If that sounds cool, I made it free to access on my Patreon 🟩🟨⬛️ www.patreon.com/posts/142281...
