This lawyer breaks down why the so-called guardrails Carney includes in this bill just create a cog in a machine built to deny workers their right to strike. Then ministers, in deciding what the “national interest” is in quashing a strike, can consider the “impact on the Canadian economy.”

Ed Sheeran is a knob. But don’t let the Kraft Family, Gillette Stadium, Ticketmaster, and Live Nation get a free pass. Is dunk culture is more important than the societal change that we need? Those in power have demonstrated control over what music can be performed while we laugh at the artists.

A bunch of Israeli politicians said “we will destroy Gaza” and then the IDF blew up the hospitals and shot starving people with snipers and killed everybody in the NICU so all the preemies died but prominent people will still argue with you under their own names about whether or not that’s genocide

Our society's unfathomable cruelty to homeless people is not just morally unjustifiable, but more expensive than housing people would be. Cruelty against the homeless is an unaffordable luxury. Abandoning homeless people to avoid offending the Protestant work ethic is an unaffordable luxury.

Comic writer Roger McKenzie passed away earlier today. He was 75. Roger was the main writer of Daredevil when he was assigned a young new penciller, Frank Miller. Roger showed him the ropes and handed off the writing reins to Frank with issue #168. Condolences to his family friends and fans.
Early this morning, Peepster-in-Chief Roger McKenzie passed away peacefully in hospice care. He'd been dealing with end-stage heart failure and kidney disease for the past several months. He was certain that he still had some stories to tell in the time he had left, and struggled mightily to write one last script. He loved and valued all of his comic book colleagues, his friends, and the Peepsters who supported his work. He'll be greatly missed by his wife Tami, chosen family member Catherine, and furry family members Timmy, MoJo, and Baby Girl.

out it goes: my long post about Rachel Hope Cleves's claim that Tillie Walden plagiarised her book. It's long because Cleves's claim is much, much more bizarre than it looked on first reading. I'm not going to bury the lede here. Cleves's claim does not hold up. buttondown.com/thene/archiv...
stick a pin in this metaphor

…because these covers are a microcosm of the entire conflict; Walden's book is mostly built on writing and other objects left by Sylvia Drake, Charity Bryant, and others. Her work includes many elements from these records that Cleves does not refer to in her book, and many of her interpretations of those records are different from Cleves's interpretations, often intentionally so. In addition to her historical basis, Walden's book includes fictional dialogue and story elements that are original to her work, some of which are inspired by Walden's own life.

Plug-in solar panels are coming to the UK from August 27th! It's been in the pipeline for a while & it's already common in Germany. But it's BRILLIANT because it opens up these technologies to renters & ppl w/o their own roof. Plugs into a normal socket & supplies ~ 10-20% of household needs. ☀️🎉

Blessing the timeline with a 1935 photo of EC Segar in his studio.
Segar's studio is gorgeous with high ceilings and a polished wood floor. There are rifles and musical instruments neatly on display. Segar is turned away from his drawing board playing a cello.
