Black comedy on par with Veep at its best. Jack Smith has incredible timing, and Klobuchar breaking up is terrific as well.

Yuji Kaida isn’t just one of my favorite Godzilla artists, he’s an all timer in general. His artwork for Ghouls N’ Ghosts has lived in my head rent free for decades.

I caught the cutest thing ever on the Katmai bear cams

A photo of a large brown bear, taken from behind, laying on the ground with her back legs splayed out. Her two cubs are laying against her right side, both using her butt as a pillow. They're laying next to a river

Liberal Currents consistently publishes interesting work from people who believe that progressive liberalism itself is worth fighting for, which makes them worthy fellow travelers to those of us further left in the popular front. Absolutely worth supporting.

This makes me hopeful. This number is aspirational but nowhere near out of reach: a working professional could realistically cash out their 401k and buy off a public official. Owning a senator is more attainable for most Americans than home ownership.

pain or damage don't end the world. or despair, or fucking beatings. the world ends when you're dead. until then, you got more punishment in store. stand it like a man. and give some back.

A reminder that our subscriber drive kicked off yesterday. If you are frustrated by the state of the media in the Trump era, you could do worse than support a publication that stands for trans rights, freedom of movement, and equal dignity, and against our totalitarian immigration enforcement system

The best part of being an artist is that you can just draw whatever dumb idea comes to your head at 1am

A scene parodying the Neon Genesis Evangelion scene of Asuka and her Eva unit getting pierced by the spear of longinus. In this scene, Linguini and Remy from Pixar's Ratatouille take the place of the EVA unit and Asuka respectively. Linguinis eye is pierced by a fork version of the spear and Remy is depicted in an inset where he is grabbing his eye and screaming like the anime. There are anime subtitles at the bottom that say "AHHHHHHHHH!"

So apparently there’s a room underneath Sedlec Ossuary that’s never been explored full of bones in a weird pattern (weirder than usual) that was found with ground penetrating radar but can’t be opened because it‘s load-bearing. This my shit.

trump has an almost Satanic influence on people. they see that he has succeeded not despite but because of his total lack of virtues and in the universe he has created on the right, displaying any virtue whatsoever is a sign of weakness.

Scully and Mulder silhouetted against a bright lime green background. they're pointing their flashlights at a UFO in the foreground. pine trees surround the scene.

I think this is true, and part of the Everything is Gender theory. We are governed by that section of the populace that believes that Father having violent tantrums until everyone else cowers, even as his life falls apart around him, was an aspirational display of power and mastery.

The structure of the Court breeds tyranny like rotten meat breeds maggots. "Let's take nine elite political operatives from Harvard/Yale, give them vast unaccountable power and secrecy for life, and also give them decades to establish networks of well-connected courtiers." The Aristocrats!
