The year is 2025. There are three social networks remaining. They are run by Dweeb Lowtax, Tweaker Lowtax, and Girlboss Lowtax. You have to pick at least one.

Coming up on November, the Noir month, I wanted to share this hidden gem I've been following for a bit. He uploads forgotten crime thrillers of the 30s-50s and does a little intro for each one roleplaying a whiskey-swilling private eye. Brute Force, Cover Up, Crooked Way, Impact... great selection.

One of the best books I read this year. Gritty murderous union lesbians.

Finally reading @mikebrooks668.bsky.social's Son of the Forest and absolutely loving that the Lion's internal monologues about Roboute are basically "guy whose special interest is knights gets his kill switch triggered by opposing guy whose special interest is spreadsheets." very relateable

Anyway props to NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD for just flat saying "in times of crisis your supposed protectors reveal themselves as the racist lynch mobs they always were" 57 years ago

zero prevent surprised to read they are roundly abusing greta thunberg while she’s in detention but making her kiss the israeli flag is just sick. what sick people.

Even after all these years, the hate that awful people reserve for her is still staggering to me

Can't wait for the next gormless democrat to run on reforming and using these gestapo freaks "sensitively" or "surgically" or whatever buzzword their marketing ghouls come up with. Fuck me.

Near Dark can be hard to find in the US, but it appears to be on Youtube. Of course, I'm in no way encouraging you watch this clearly nefarious upload. This post is strictly informational.

I think the biggest difference between The Internet Then and The Internet Now is how Being Mad Online used to be the one thing you could never admit to, under pain of death, and now, Being Mad Online is a whole career path with a skill tree and an ever-expanding variety of debuffs.

96 is a good run but man, what a bummer. Our local PBS used to do an hour block of KUA every Friday night and it was pretty influential on my sense of humour from an early age.

Without having intentionally sought them out, like half the books I've read recently all ended up dealing with cannibalism. I choose to interpret this as the universe telling me I should watch Ravenous again. I figure this is a safe choice because most of us should be (re)watching Ravenous.

let's try something Like this Post if you will be less likely to open this web site when the trannies finally stop putting up with this shit and find some a new platform to give life to Repost this Post if you're never going to click a single ad on this web site while this shit continues

if lowtax's ex-wife is saying you remind her of fucking lowtax maybe you should stop posting

I'm not a particularly religious jew, but I do use the high holidays as tethering points for a lot of my ethical and humanistic beliefs, and I find that Rabbi Brant's work (and Marc Ellis's, who he quotes lovingly) makes me feel a little less like I'm alone in the wilderness.

I'm admittedly very tired but I read this post several times and I feel like I'm going insane.

sorry if this seems dramatic but i think we need to make it so people are afraid to say shit like this in public

It's dispiriting that dead-eyed freaks like Weiss are getting an even bigger firehose to spew their bullshit from, but I take some small comfort that it's not going to fix world perception of the genocidal ethnostate at this point in the live-broadcast slaughters.

In celebration of Morktober (great game & great month) & MB's positive impact on folks, for the whole month of October, my Mork Borg Art pack will be 80% off, putting it at $5! itch.io/s/161084/mor... Also, I will add 1 new piece of art to this bundle for each purchase of this bundle during the sale

I don't think we'll ever get another sentence which sums up everything the New York Times embodies quite like "Some legal experts have called it a crime to summarily kill civilians".

a US intelligence head gifting ghost guns to foreign nationals feels like a bit www.stuff.co.nz/politics/360...

Nostalgia was already like brain poisoning, so maybe giving the population access to a planet-destroying technology that can render their rose tinted memories into AI slop was a mistake. Just thinking out loud here.

ICE Nazis in Chicago tried to kidnap a food delivery worker but my man was too fast for those slow bastards

It rules that the country is being run on responses to Miller showing him clips of Fury Road and going "this is Portland Mr president look what antifa have done to the voodoo donuts hq"

I'm not going to say I'm not a big dumb nerd who hasn't teared up at some particularly well-written emotional beats from Abnett, Wraight and Dembski-Bowden, but I cannot get my head around people who take 40k dead seriously when literally all the Deep Lore boils down to this decade-old tweet:

This is why saying things "I can still love someone despite having a disagreement with them" when that disagreement is fundamental human rights is meaningless. That other person (even if they don't say so) doesn't want a rational conversation. They want to exterminate that group from existence.

I was 12 when FFT came out, and the sequence where Ramza in full-on liberal noble mode tries to convince Milleuda to parlay with the oligarchs who nearly starved her entire town to death already and gets rightly sneered at was a pretty transformative bit of writing to my developing brain.

The United Nations was created in 1945 to replace the ineffectual League of Nations after it failed to prevent the Holocaust. Here we are 2 years into a full blown live streamed genocide and they invite Hitler to the mic. Who gives a shit that some people walked out...he should have never been there

I’m pretty much constantly angry about how the global media ecosystem supercharged the current wave of fascism and of course I can’t help but think of Al Swearengen talking about the telegraph coming to Deadwood

Taking psychic damage from imagining a modern prestige version of the show. They'd introduce Morden in episode 1, make the shadows a mystery box that don't get mentioned until the season finale (ep 8) and then the show would be cancelled.

I haven't rewatched in an age, but man, the first Babylon 5 season really feels all killer no thriller. Midnight on the Firing Line through Signs and Portents is a perfect run of every episode feeling necessary to the plot while still telling a self-contained bit of story. More than holds up.

Truly incredible brain.

LOL

POV: I've learned something new about a Warhammer faction and your day is about to be ruined

Righteous Gemstones was a documentary.

I already see her every time she tours because she's a great act, but the consistent support of Palestine is really a cherry on top.

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

(leaning in uncomfortably close to the mic) this, and the wet puppets

How did you get so cool, Kim?

I finished Moonflow in pretty much one sitting today. It was great. Gnarly, gooey, horny piece of queer fungal splatterpunk. As a straight cis dude, there's an outspoken "you've never seen the soviet masterpiece STALKER?!" guy sequence that hit me like a barbed arrow. Splendid.

As a Gene Wolfe sicko I get more disappointed if I'm not expected to start picking up contextual clues from an addled narrator in the first two pages

Me, 15, right before I jump off the garage roof to impress someone

This looks like space food from a low budget BBC science fiction feature from the early 80s and unfortunately that has only endeared it to me

Hit the fucking motherlode out used book shopping today.

Gentle reminder that in the late '50s, the U.S. government did not censor comics. Comics companies censored themselves. Not sure why that crossed my mind today but there it is...

racist podcaster getting turned into a pez dispenser and its all of our problems now for some reason. get fucked lady go back to innsmouth
