Also: Get off your arse and vote. My constituency was won for Labour by 15 votes. A high turnout from the French sorted this. You don't vote? Well, the fash do. If you're replying to this with why it's ideologically impure for a truly left wing person to vote, please just block yourself, I'm tired.

Well, this is a new scammer tactic. 1500 Borb pins needed URGENTLY? Uh-huh.

The lesson that we Americans must learn from France is this: You GO OUT, VOTE IN LARGE NUMBERS, VOTE STRATEGICALLY, VOTE WITH BRAIN, YOU SUCCEED & WIN! Period. End of story. Is the French Left-wing coalition perfect? No, by a mile, but it’s a HELL OF LOT BETTER than the Neo-Nazis in suits & ties.

#France: The coalition of Left did very well. I predicted they’d become the 2nd largest group in the parliament, I was wrong. They are the 1st group now with between 172-192 seats. It’s a cohabitation scenario, & Macron will have to share power with NFP. Big question: will Mélenchon be the next PM?

Watching a video on Youtube that's just a rip of an old MTV video countdown from 1986 and there's a commercial in it from Burger King talking about "for the holidays, bring home the best - BK chicken tenders." I miss the 80s, sometimes.

GenAI is Bannon's "flood the zone with shit" escalated from political discourse to the entire episteme. imo, this is intentional.

The great thing about blocking a troll without engaging is the 0% contribution I've made to amplifying their bullshit, highly recommended

Man am I going to miss the Milwaukee Public Museum. The sheer magnitude of artistry on display here is unparalleled, and I don’t think this much talent for creating dioramas and immersive spaces will ever be assembled on a museum budget again.

More new art coming to SDCC and GenCon! Y'all might have noticed the new Blast-O art we've done this year. We've been having a lot of fun with it, and wanted to pull in our love of old advertisements - thus this piece was born. Also, like those individual images? More to come!

Read this whole thread.

When an article says "some scientists think" then remember this: I, a scientist, once thought I could fit a whole orange in my mouth. I could, it turns out, get it in there, but I hadn't given sufficient thought to the reverse operation.

Apropos of a conversation I had today with a non-scientist: Climate risks are not going to be isolated to the "usual" vulnerable places. Remember Hurricane Ida (which was my first hurricane evacuation from NOLA)? It hit Louisiana as a cat 4, but caused more $ damage and deaths in NJ+NY+PA than LA

Going to SDCC? Do not be this person. And since we all know there will be at least one stupid arsewipe who will go while sick, mask up. That way you’ll never be that person.

seeing that book blogger post going around from the person who went to ALA after she tested positive for COVID bc fuck everyone else I guess? genuinely disgusting.

Scout loves our new pins.

Border crossings at the lowest in 4 yrs. Gas prices are lowest in 3 yrs. Job growth remains higher than expected. Grocery store lowering prices on hundreds of items. Violent crime fell at the fastest rate in over 50 yrs. Infrastructure projects are underway. But let's hear more about "Biden old."

Republicans tried quietly to do an end run around the citizens of KS, after we resoundingly told them to fuck off with their abortion ban. And the state Supreme Court sided with us.

Kansas voters want there to be safe legal abortions. The Republicans did all they could to hamstring that effort. Now the Kansas Supreme Court has affirmed the citizens by a 5 to 1 vote. apnews.com/article/abor...

Kansas’ top court bolsters a state right to abortion and strikes down 2 anti-abortion lawsapnews.com The Kansas Supreme Court has reaffirmed its stance that the state constitution protects abortion access.

I know nothing about PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE. I don't know the murderous aliens behind it, particularly Xarzon, who is a good friend. Anything they do, including raising the dead to destroy humanity, I wish them luck. But it has nothing to do with me. Hail Xarzon.
