It’s a shame more people won’t see Digger, a surprisingly cynical and bleak commentary on how art no longer has the power to change things that also mocks Tom Cruise a lot.

As a new Harry Potter trailer makes the rounds, it bears repeating that there’s no way to watch this show without supporting J.K. Rowling’s bigotry and the structural violence she’s inflicting on the trans community.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series
You can’t without supporting Rowling’s transphobic bigotry.

Sorry *POPPY sensibility. They don't have spotty sensibilities! I promise!

Their first three albums have a lot of good stuff but are a little spotty to me but We All Belong is probably a good starting point to get a taste of their lo-fi spotty sensibility. Then Fate, which is... the best. And then just move on through. Smooth sailing. Earworms for days.

Shane Madej @shanemadej.bsky.social · 01/09/2026
Oh my god they're the best. You can pretty much move through their discography chronologically and not encounter one bad song. "Fate" through "Critical Equation" in particular is one of the most staggering decade-long runs of albums I've ever heard.

People have studied this for decades, and the findings are pretty consistent: Immigration is unrelated or even negatively related to crime and cities w/lots of immigrants are likely safer than yours. From Robert Sampson, The Great American City: Chicago and the Enduring Neighborhood Effect (2012).
Among the public, policy makers, and many academics, a common expectation is that the concentration of immigrants and the influx of foreigners drive up disorder and crime because of the assumed propensities of these groups to commit crimes and settle in poor, presumably disorganized communities. This belief is so pervasive that, as shown in chapter 6, the neighborhood concentration of Latinos strongly predicts perceptions of disorder no matter what the actual amount of disorder or the rate of reported crimes. Yet increases in immigration are correlated with less crime, and immigrants appear to be less violent than those born in America, particularly when they live in neighborhoods with high numbers of other immigrants.

I've usually found that a chewy pop is the result of the kernels! (I assume they're just old/stale?) If you want light and fluffy you can track down some white kernels. Yellow if you want more bulbous and starchy. Despite being a big brand I find Orville kernels to be pretty reliable and fresh!

@shanemadej.bsky.social and I are unfortunate victims of getting sucked up into space weekly and on Monday we release the first episode of a podcast that tells our horrific story. @nicklutsko.bsky.social gave us this amazing theme and Jared Sosa followed it with an incredible animation.

A digital illustration. Seen mostly in silhouette (with some hints of detail if you zoom in) we see Sisyphus in his classical Greek togs against a reddish orange background. He is working very hard to shove an extremely large, roughly spherical boulder up a very steep grade. Large letters carved into the side of the boulder facing us read ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

ICE is feverishly looking for some top-down reason this is happening. They are trying to infiltrate, but you cannot infiltrate a city's collective character. They want to find the
"orchestrators," the "paid activists," the political professionals scheming up the city's response to their crimes. They won't find any, because there are none. It's parents worried about the safety of their daycare and schools. It's neighbors worried about the family down the street. It's anyone with a conscience-which is to say, it is everyone. And we are going to win.
