Much of the cheaper foods are ultraprocessed. Therefore before we urge everyone to avoid them we must advocate for an economic system that makes the non processed foods more affordable and/or increase the average person’s affordability. We can’t call the first public health and the second political.

Several weeks ago, Phil Tippett's legendary animation studio in Berkeley, CA closed. An anonymous hero noticed a folder of CDs. This turned out to be hundreds of unseen hi-res images and videos from Star Wars, Robocop, Jurassic Park, etc. ~90 isos for you to browse: archive.org/details/tipp...

Phil, a balding Caucasian man, poses a model of the garthok, an antagonist from the Coneheads movie.

Phil, a balding caucasian man, points at some CG on a CRT computer monitor, as a younger man looks on. The screen shows a model of a dinosaur attacking a jeep, while there's an actual physical model of that event in the foreground for reference.

an isolated shot of a star wars vehicle. Sorry, I don't know star wars lol

Based. As. Fuck. For an artist who had their work be changed by someone else and still want that change to exist shows how important art is in modern society. It's not just pictures and noise, it's a message. Ed Sheeran thinks art isn't that. #nzpol www.odt.co.nz/news/dunedin...

If only there was some kind of local representative who was a member of the government who could push for policies that mean an increasing number of desperate people dont have to rely on food banks in the first place.

Front page of Kāpiti News. The main headline reads: Running Out: Foodbank supplies low as demand rises above an advertisement for National MP Tim Costley.
