Our staff is hard at work on your divination! We will be with you momentarily.
A digital illustration of various hamsters on a table cluttered with objects such as spellbooks, candles, herbs, and mushrooms. 

One hamster is asleep in the eye socket of a cat skull, another is eating a mushroom, two appear to be contemplating a spread of three tarot cards (three of swords, death, 10 of cups), another hamster investigates a bottle of spilled sunflower seeds, one is pawing at a glass bowl containing a newt (which is likewise pawing at the hamster from inside), and lastly a hamster appears to be scurrying off screen dragging a knife.

Remember, this is all almost note for note the exact same thing we saw play out online from the exact same ppl last year irt Mamdani. Theyve built a political worldview around the idea that Ds hate the left & keeping that narrative alive is more impt than acknowledging the reality that it isnt true

Good boss. If you're the kind of person losing your shit on someone working retail or in food service, go fuck yourself harder than ever. You clearly have never worked it before and I promise you couldn't handle the job.

When Trump "jokes" about vaporizing US cities, it should not be treated as a joke. Trump has a record of making good on his most nihilistic, cruel and destructive proposals, from getting Putin to help him win office, to inducing thugs to assault the Capital, as @jilldlawrence.bsky.social explains.

Don’t Dismiss Trump’s Los Angeles-San Diego Comment as a ‘Joke’
No normal American would say those words. A president shouldn’t even think them.

Cannot emphasize enough that the morass we find ourselves in everywhere is a result of this commitment to white supremacy. The eugenic health policy, the belief and desire for US autarky, meddling & murder in Latin America, the half-cocked belief that the US could bully Iran- it really is.

Illustrated portrait of a Secretarybird, with its long neck with elegant gray soft plumes, bright red-orange facial skin, and long black feathers jutting like spikes from the back of its head which cast shadows on its shoulders. The background is a soft dusty brown-purple, suggesting a broad expansive grassland.

My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com
As we join the great theoretical scientist, he is deep in thought. So still, quiet and focused that he might almost be asleep. But inside that brilliant mind, what new idea is forming? What certainty is being meticulously interrogated? What ingenious theory is ready to change our world forever? (the scientist snores lightly) Ah, it seems he actually is asleep. And that's fine. Science is hard and not every day can be a success. We will come back another time.
