Think about Miss Piggy. She lost a best friend and now an ex-lover in matter of 24 hours.
Miss Piggy and Dolly Parton in fancy dresses posing together photo of Tim Curry surrounded by muppets, smiling for a photo. A quote from curry is added “it didn’t go very well. It didn’t survive the shoot. She felt I wasn’t being faithful to her” it’s him discussing his ill fated affair with miss piggy

I really cannot think of a greater honor than to have the Muppets say this about you upon your passing
Instagram post from the official Muppets account: Few humans have earned the title of honorary Muppet more than the legendary Tim Curry. As a performer he was unparalleled - witty, charming, unnerving, and deeply funny. We will always consider it one of our greatest treasures to have been part of Long John Silver’s crew. Thank you for everything, Tim.

I recently saw an interesting video on why China is beating the West at capitalism. It's worth a watch. "China is run by people who know how to solve physical problems -- engineers. The west is run by people who know how to win arguments -- lawyers and politicians."

Incredible. When E—n M—k & his crew obliterated USAID in a weekend, they deleted a vast trove of publicly-funded knowledge: the Development Experience Clearinghouse. A Canadian high school student (!) happened to have downloaded the entire thing for a project. AidData has now posted it for all.

Before reimagining development data, remember what we’ve learned
Why we’re publishing a free, searchable, and ungated archive featuring a quarter-century of USAID evaluation reports.

Reminds me of a very old ditty. I hate this dammed computer. I wish that they would sell it. It never does what I want. Only what I tell it. Old enough that it was up on the wall in the card punch room of a building housing a main frame computer

I very much need to remember this, from time to time. Touch grass, smell the flowers, play with the dog. Dance! Unplug. Relax. Unwind. The shitstorm will still be here, but this will make you more resilient, better able to fight. And it's how you actually want to be living your life!

This cruelty too shall end..
4 frame comic with narrative text, showing 1: police in riot gears, 2: tear gas engulfing a street with the silhouette of a person standing in the middle, 3: a big gathering seen from the sky; 4: a sunset over los angeles. Text reads : It's utterly ipossible for me to build my life on a foundation of chaos, suffering and death. I see the world being slowly transformed into a wilderness, I hear the approaching thunder that, one day, will destroy us too, I feel the suffering of millions. And yet, when I look up at the sky, I somehow feel that everything will change for the better, that this cruelty too shall end, that peace and tranquility will return once more. The Diary of Anne Frank, 15 July 1944. Throughout the text, the letters F, U, C, K, I, C, and E are highlighted in red.

Aggravated assault?!?! Released on a $5,000 bond?!?!? I'm furious he's not even facing child-endangerment charges. What kind of evil prick takes an AR-15 to shoot up a birthday party? I'm glad Kinzer was the only one shot. Hopefully he'll think twice before trying to terrorize his neighbors again.

A shitpost from the scummy internet forum 4chan. It is titled "The Wisdom of Don Tzu," a satire of "The Wisdom of Lao Tzu," and features an image of a man who looks somewhat like Trump, but in a traditional Chinese art style. The body of the post reads: "If you don't know what you're doing, neither does your enemy. The supreme art of war is to lose and then announce victory. speak loudly and carry a small stick. Make sure to alienate and threaten your allies for no reason so that they turn against you. After you burn bridges with your allies, beg them for help. Break all promises you made to your supporters so that they turn against you. Redeploy your overseas bases and weapons so that you cannot project power. Always rush into conflict without planning it. When you want to rally a people to your cause, slaughter their children and threaten to genocide them. Spend a huge sum of money on war and then withdraw from battle because it's too costly. Appear strong and manly when you are weak. Then, throw tantrums like a little girl. Be a lapdog to a tiny, unpopular country which blackmails you for raping children. Boast of war crimes so that the other party can prosecute you more easily when they're in power.

What is "autocratic backfire"?
4 frame comic. first frame shows the banner of Trump's face that appeared in DC last year. Second frame shows Mussolini giving a speech in front of a church. third shows the silhouette of Putin. Fourth shows the silhouette of Trump giving a speech in front of a Trump - Make America Great Again banner. The text, spread over the four frames, reads : 
coined by ruth ben-ghiat,
history professor and author
of "strongmen: Mussolini to the
present", autocratic backfire
refers to the self-destructive
pattern of authoritarian leaders
who isolate themselves from
expert advice and objective
feedback.
"I follow my instincts and I
am never wrong," said mussolini
shortly before invading ethiopia,
which made him popular at first,
but led to the bankruptcy of
the italian state. doesn't that
sound familiar?
surrounded by an echo
chamber of sycophants, auto-
crats overestimate their power
and underestimate their adver-
saries. that's how russia is
still sending ever more people
to die in ukraine for a "special
operation" that was supposed
to last just a few days.
strongmen are at their most
dangerous when they feel
threatened. they might even,
for example, start wars to
protect their over-inflated
egos from historically low
polling numbers.

Electing Trump the first time could have been seen as an aberration, a quirk of US politics that would not be repeated. But electing him a second time sent a clear signal to the rest of the world that it is imperative to reduce military and economic dependence on the US because it is unstable.

I saw a comment the said we aren’t “angry enough.” But all we are is angry. Our veins circulate it like acid. It cracks our sternums. It poisons and paralyzes us. We hiss and spit at each other, all impotent, helpless rage. We don’t need more anger. We need more direction.

One thing I don’t understand is why the US/Israel intentionally murdered those kids. When making an initial sneak attack on a country, you have plenty of time to deliberately choose targets. There is no fog of war, yet. Why bomb an elementary school? Unless you’re just evil….
