can't believe we're really getting the taxation of trade routes being in dispute *and* a blockade of deadly battleships
A photo from behind the scenes on filming Revenge of the Sith. Against a bluescreen backdrop, George Lucas snarls and raises his hands to the sky, as Ian McDiarmid in full costume as Palpatine, does similarly in the background.

I hate that we are living in times where it feels the only thing we can do is triage those affected. Where charity is the only weapon against the worst people in the world. But if you can fix something for someone today, please do it. A lot of folks are asking for help, maybe throw them some.

Just a regular reminder to please support your local theatre, café, bookstore, bakery, and library. We breathe life into these places when we support them. Without us, they can't survive, and truthfully, without them, neither can we.

I am a firm and true humanist. I try to live my life believing that, on average, every person you interact with means well and just wants to be heard. But then I’ll remember some people spit their gum into urinals and there is no level of empathy that can excuse that.

Well, there it is. Sinclair is digging in for a fight, so please help push back -- find stations in your area, watch their local news to see what ads they run, then write those advertisers to tell them you're boycotting as long as they're on a Sinclair station. List here: sbgi.net/tv-stations/

No. You don't get a free pass for your authoritarian policies because someone you like was killed by someone who shouldn't have had a gun. Until common sense gun laws are passed, this will keep happening in our country.

Sinclair has been buying, waiting, and building power for years. They have chosen this moment to brandish their power over all their local stations. Media consolidation is anti-democratic.

In other words, Justice Kavanaugh believes that if you're brown, your time doesn't mean shit. Maybe it's time we racially profile all middle-aged white men as pedophiles. Let's stop each one on the street and detain them to find out. It makes just as much sense. Garbage Nation run by garbage people.

This isn’t Moscow or Beijing. It’s Chicago. Masked federal agents grabbed U.S. citizens protesting ICE and threw them into an unmarked van. “Who are you? Where are you taking them?” people shouted. “You are kidnapping them!” What has America become?

I don't want to start a thing so I'll just say that there will never be a good argument for privatizing USPS. That would be like privatizing libraries. The aim of services isn't to be run for profit, they are for serving the greater good, which USPS has been extremely successful at.

AI's best use case will always be scams. It's scamtech, top to bottom. Everything about it is crooked. Its bedrock is theft and its legacy is the destruction of the environment, both physical and virtual. Even most of its 'legitimate' uses are a form of lying. "I wrote this." "I created this."

As long as guns are easily available to crazy people, mass killings directed at so-called soft targets will continue. This is a fact. Countries where it's more difficult for crazy people to obtain guns have less shootings. This is also a fact. Do with these facts as you will.
