Every time some pundit claims that no one would work if their basic needs were met, I think about how, after he retired, my dad would just show up at estate sales with his truck and offer to help folks take their furniture home because he just wanted to keep busy and be around people.

Judith Beheading Holofernes by Artemisia Gentileschi
The painting was completed in Rome where Artemisia returned after spending seven years in Florence and where she was able to appreciate Caravaggio's works once more.

you will encounter more opportunities in life to change the batteries on a smoke alarm than you will to run into a burning building and no one gives a shit you changed those batteries but it is still very important and why are you waiting on a burning building, know what i’m saying, it’s a metaphor

i worry that men think being A Good Guy is dramatically and heroically intervening on behalf of an endangered woman and then being publicly rewarded on a grand scale when actually being A Good Guy is just usually saying, “hey man that’s not funny” or “wow that’s fucked up” and there is no reward

Another person with a female body came to kempo tonight and we had a nice bitch session about men not understanding the danger jumping jacks pose to those with internal plumbing, the utter uselessness of unisex gi sizing, and adapting certain moves to account for differences in anatomy.

New exciting reason to be wary of eating spooky black Halloween food, to go with "activated charcoal is used for poison control and the same qualities that make it useful there can stop your medicines working"

In this house we refer to Anakin as "my love, my murderous asshole" because it is possible to love a character while acknowledging they are also terrible.

Do not carry a cold beverage in their presence. Politely decline any drinks or sweetmeats they may offer. Keep a plain iron nail in your left trouser pocket and a sachet or paper twist of coarse salt in your right shoe. Enter and leave your chair moving clockwise. Follow up with a thank-you note.

It really can’t be stressed enough that the freaky AI doom cult stuff that is so influential in Silicon Valley is an AMERICAN phenomenon. The AI industry in Europe and in Asia is not, from all I’ve heard, taking this weird millenarian stuff seriously. But much of US Big AI? It very much is.

Campaign hard against Newsom in the Democratic primaries, and cancel any Paramount and WBD subs you have, even free ones. Do not give these people your money, and do not pad their official sub or viewing numbers.

Avoiding the obvious comments about this woman, this is a microcosm of modern mainstream news - happily normalising the fetid obsessions of a class of people paid to stew in their own twee social bubble.
