There are two guys sitting at the table next to me talking on their speaker phones at full volume to different automated voice assistants, and neither of them is comprehending why their phone calls aren't going very well.

PMC COVlD Update, Sep 28, 2026 (US): 🔸We're in a 13th COVlD wave. 🔸40 states & territories continue to have COVlD outbreaks, stable from last week. 🔸Levels likely peaked between Sep 7-13 at a PMC-estimated 580,000 new daily infections. pmc19.com/map
The US has at least 40 states and territories with COVlD outbreaks, the same number reported last week. These include Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, California, Colorado, Connecticut, Florida, Georgia, Guam, Hawaii, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oregon, Pennsylvania, Puerto Rico, Rhode Island, South Carolina, Texas, the U.S. Virgin Islands, Utah, Virginia, Washington, West Virginia, and Wyoming.
     There are likely outbreaks in additional states. The summary statistic of 40 only includes counties with observed data, rather than estimated data. For example, Idaho, Louisiana, Maryland, and Tennessee likely have outbreaks, but monitoring is poor.

Nuance: 
Note that while PMC uses forecasting to estimate national statistics through Sep 28 and beyond, the state-level data do not, meaning they are now 9 days old. If the national forecast is correct, levels peaked between Sept 7-13, closely aligned with our prior forecasts. This would mean that levels are declining more so than depicted in the map. Levels often decline slowly, suggesting the need for ongoing precautions. Additionally, Biobot and 200 CDC sites are offline this week, and both have experienced major retroactive corrections of late, so the national forecast has more uncertainty than usual. For example, we could see the peak adjusted upward or a double peak. It is unclear how quickly reporting will resume at the offline sites.

In Renaissance Man by T.E.D. Klein, present day scientists bring a scientist from the future into our time. They're elated. He'll know answers to problems unsolved. But in questioning him, they discover the future is so simplified & automated, he's ignorant. I think of this story more & more often.

Let it never be forgotten that, on top of whatever else he may be, Lex Luthor is a tremendous nerd.
Comic panel from Superman #68 depicting a letter Luthor sent to "The Chemical Society" complaining that they kicked him out for doing crimes and promising to do more crimes through better chemistry.

The most infuriating thing about this is the ad I was served reading it about starving children. The organization "No Kid Hungry" is asking YOU for money to feed poor kids, meanwhile, one of the corporate partners that helps pay for their ads is fucking WARNER BROS DISCOVERY. America gotta go.

Well I'd say that's pretty dang succinct.
"Marx and Engels posed before the proletariat the historic task of overthrowing capitalism and assuming political power, and outlined the ways for the subsequent transformation of capitalism into socialism. Lenin elaborated their ideas on the role and significance of the period of transition from capitalism to socialism, and developed them
as they applied to the new historical situation. Subsequently, the Marxist-Leninist parties have creatively developed these ideas, a fact which has found reflection in the formulation of the general laws of transition from capitalism to socialism." 

From What Is the Transition Period? by V. Kashin, 1988

There's a lot of understandable pessimism out there. Sometimes it's hard to see your local fights in the context of the larger struggles, and losing that perspective walls you off. For what it's worth, it only takes one question to myself to keep me going: "Do you know what it'll mean when we win?"

i've said it before, but a disturbingly significant number of democrats take no issue with what ICE does; with the changes trump made to ICE operations what they take issue with is who is orchestrating ICE operations they believe that ICE is fine "hunting" people, so long as it's the "correct" ppl

I was in 6th grade when 9/11 happened. Like two days later, the school admin assigned us all either red, white, or blue t-shirts to wear and then made us stand out in the baseball field to form a giant human American flag so a local news helicopter could film it.

I maintain (and will argue enthusiastically in the upcoming episode) that Adventures of Superman 500 is *VERY GOOD*, but with the important caveat that it wasn't intended to be and that it's only VERY GOOD if you sit and think about it longer than you should and in ways you were never meant to.
