Hey now, it’s not the French language’s fault if English keeps stealing its words and using them for nefarious purposes (see also: “shower”).

I was recently sent this gloriously gothic SABLE fan art by the legendary @nightphysics.bsky.social ! I love the idea of Teddy as a Victorian-era occult investigator. If you haven't checked out Austin's beautiful and haunting webcomic NIGHT PHYSICS, do yourself a favor and go read it now!
A black and white drawing showing Teddy, an anthropomorphic stoat, dressed in Victorian attire and examining a burnt photograph. Occult texts and objects are scattered in the study around him

Malagasy Catholics: “Madagascar has always belonged to its legitimate queen, the Virgin Mary.” The Kingdom of Madagascar, 1828–1861: “As far as the law is concerned, a Malagasy citizen who converts to any form of Christianity is guilty of the highest form of treason against the throne.”

It's #werewolfwednesday!
Digital drawing of a lanky werewolf in profile, in a leaping pose, facing left. They are grinning, their pose somewhat mischievous, with one clawed hand holding a lit golden lantern. The light highlights part of their wolfy form. The werewolf is drawn in sketchy black ink on a dusty blue/grey background, the only other colour being the gold of the lantern.

Paraphrasing from something I’ve just read on Reddit: “The same Christianity that has taught White Americans to act as the world’s commanding hand, has somehow taught Malagasy people to be submissive instead.” And… yeah. Heavily simplified, but quite generally true.

A reminder for those at the back.
A redraw of the i nice panel from Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns, where Batman snaps a rifle in two over his knee.

He says "THIS is the weaponnof the enemy. We do not NEED it. We will not USE it."

I've replace the rifle with a plank of wood labelled "AI Slop"

That quoted post doesn’t just demonstrate a hilariously bad understanding of the history of queer rights in the USA, but it also ties with the observation that the history of queer rights in the USA often overwrites the history of queer rights elsewhere to a frankly cartoonish level

I would argue another thing: 2026 Africa being politically divided would not be that much of a drawback against 1939 Europe, considering that WW2 literally started out of European countries being all too willing to drag everyone else into an European shoot-each-other-fest.

The hilarious thing is people arguing that “2026 Africa is far too politically divided to stand a chance”. Ah yes, 1939 Europe, so famous for NOT being politically divided. How did WW2 start again?

Yes, that IS the racism being pointed out. The idea that Africans are so backwards and primitive that not even 21st century tech would be of any help against Mighty Europeans with 1939 tech.

"AI will change the world."
A screenshot via Reddit https://redd.it/1x4lmsu of someone searching Google "what is penis in braille" and receiving an AI overview: "The penis cannot read Braille because it lacks the necessary nerve receptors. Nerve Endings: Reading Braille requires Meissner's corpuscles, which are specialized nerve endings in the fingertips and other sensitive skin areas responsible for detecting light touch and fine textures."

AFAIK, someone having aura means someone who attracts other people’s admiration. Hence the common online lingo, “aura farming” (i.e. deliberately cultivating people’s admiration for you).
