Proud Delawarean. Fundamentally unchanged since the Triassic. You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like.

I’m sorry but the only way the US possibly regains any credibility with the world at this point is to hold the Trump admin to account. People arguing for back-to-normal Bidenism have totally lost the plot.

I LOVE how @propublica.org dealt with official comment here, editorially and stylistically.
The Trump administration says none of this is happening. 

"DHS is NOT arresting U.S. citizens by mistake." "There are no 'indiscriminate' stops." Allegations of "racial profiling are disgusting, reckless and categorically FALSE." "The pattern is NOT of law enforcement using force." "ICE does not zip tie or restrain children." 

But that is precisely what is happening, and at a far larger scale than previously reported.

The TV ad for the 1984 "Children of the Corn." I still haven't actually seen the movie and don't actually know what happens in it, but adults being terrified of creepy dead-eyed blond children was more than enough nightmare fuel for 6 year old me.

I walked in on my parents in the living room, after my bedtime, watching an Ally McBeal episode with a talking toilet. Just a plain toilet bowl with some fishing wire lifting the lid up and down, but something about it shocked and horrified my recently potty-trained young mind. I was 17 at the time

If you want to come to the end of your life with a happy, hopeful, optimistic attitude, if you want to die a good death, the most important thing I can recommend is: be tight with your family. Otherwise, I'm going to have my work cut out for me.

The other source of optimism is gratitude. The people I've met who have the most positive outlook on the end of their lives are invariably those who can look back on their lives and feel grateful, especially for the relationships they have had.

Can you imagine being a Northerner at the start of the civil war. All the fancy lad West Point military guys are Southerners. Your president is a backwoods yokel one term congressman and your generals are some guys we found at a 7-Eleven. It's over for our ass...unless all those guys are geniuses

“how do we win back trump voters in 2026” we don’t. we create an environment where admitting to voting for trump is so socially embarrassing as to render them completely inert. you don’t “win back” trump voters. you demoralize them into staying home. you make it a dunce cap

Zombie fiction is, at its core, about the fear of seeing your own body age and decay. Ghost stories are about the impossibility of grappling with the past. Vampires are about what if you got so horny you died

Inability to detect obvious humor/ sarcasm/ irony is grounds for an instant block, if you suffer from this I'm sorry for your condition and I'm sure you mean well but I've already got 2 small kids to explain jokes to every day and I just don't have the energy to do it for anyone over the age of 10.

Condescending stock phrases you see so often on this site ("This isn't hard" "You sweet summer child") make people come off EXACTLY like Wal-mart customers who wear t-shirts that say "I'm surrounded by idiots" or "I have neither the time nor the crayons." Ya know, interesting, witty intellectuals.

I was making potato and leek soup and the recipe asked for five potatoes cubed. Even for potato soup, 125 potatoes seems a little excessive.

This is an outstanding song with amazing lyrics but it's begging for a cover, preferably by a woman (I can picture somebody with a voice like Brody Dalle killing it, but there are many options). Tom Morello is just not the best performer to do his own banger justice here. youtu.be/UaDj1bRLkGA?...

Pen, watercolor, black & white charcoal pencil.

Another featured piece from the Spooky Pants book.

A man in a sweater stands with his hands on his hips looking out of a large window with the curtains open. Things aren’t looking good outside, reader. A massive winged demon is emerging from the clouds as dozens of little ghosts and bone demons rip through the sky. On the ground below we see townsfolk running through the grass. Our man in the window is in no mood for this. He lets us know, “Oh, I am in no mood for this.” His dog looks out the window as well, wagging its tail. 

Fantasia (1940) inspired drawing. I think I could’ve gone a little heavier with the chaos outside but we’ll try again with fresh drawings this October. I like how the clouds turned out. Trying to balance my sloppy lines with more detail can be tricky but I think we achieved a good result.

Having what I think, sadly, is going to turn out to be one of the quintessential conversations of the 21st century, trying to convince an uncle that an AI-generated "singer" he's fallen in love with is an illusion. It's amazing the evidence people can ignore when their hearts want to believe. 1/
