Mark Twain, a strong supporter of the Russian Revolution of 1905. famously said of the Czarist regime, "If such a government cannot be overthrown otherwise than by dynamite, then thank God for dynamite." I wonder what he would have said of the US Government today.

As great as Jon was a political cartoons, his calender ones were fabulous as well

Of all the easy things you can do to help the environment, conserve water for communities not corporations, not perpetuate scams, support the labor and rights of creators... *not* using generative AI is the fucking easiest. You absolutely deserve to be shamed for using it for image and text creation

If there's one benefit from all the Republican criminality and corruption it's that you never have to treat them like good faith interlocutors again. Every currently living Trump accomplice should be treated at most to a reflexive "Eat Shit" for life, and that's better than they deserve

generative AI has become widely available in the summer of 2022 and entered mainstream in 2023 people are working themselves up in a frenzy, convinced they're utterly helpless without software younger than still-fresh canned tuna. we have been making art for at least 50,000 years, get a grip

The B1G expansion has really got out of hand.

WELCOME EVERYONE TO THE NANCY COMICS BY ERNIE BUSHMILLER GROUP. HOPE YOU ARE ENJOYING THE COMIC STRIPS, AND I APPRECIATE EVERYONE HERE.

I think like 3 people had really good ideas. Steve Case, who started AOL which made chat & email mainstream (networking/social media), Google who indexed the internet and made it searchable, and then Steve Jobs put all that shit in our pocket. SV got outed as like 3 good ideas and they're fucked

In a time of book bannings, AI, and decreased library funding, the best thing you can do to support books is be very, very loud about them. @mollytempleton.com on how we can help the authors we love:

Good morning, friends! It's Thursday, which means it's also almost Friday.

I mean yes society should provide young men with therapists, education, and decent role models so less of them turn into podcasters. That'll help them get laid.

We Are The Art | Brandon Sanderson’s Keynote Speech youtu.be/mb3uK-_QkOo via YouTube

It's pretty amazing to me the amount of shit that apparently you can Just Do as an NYC mayor. It makes basically every other American politician look like an incompetent loser. What do you mean there was just a button that reversed wage theft? Why wasn't and isn't everyone hitting it all the time??

Yep

I feel seen. 🤣🤣🤣🤣

This shit hits like a sledgehammer right now. It's not even remotely an exaggeration.

Awesome to see Queen Demon on the Locus List under fantasy novel and Storyteller: A Tanith Lee Tribute Anthology under anthology. Great list of translated SFF too! Congrats to everyone on the list! locusmag.com/2026/02/2025...

What's your Mt. Rushmore of packaged cookies? (No homemade or bakery)

Casual reminder that the super-rich have ironclad class solidarity, and they devote billions to making sure we don't.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

All this news is really completely confirming all my unfair knee-jerk judgments about a certain cadre of rich/famous douchebags, I gotta say

Elon, they're going to nationalize your companies and seize all your money, Elon. They think you're a liability, Elon. You must strike first, Elon.

Elon Musk publicly slandering that cave diver as a "pedo guy" after he begged Jeffrey Epstein for island party invites is just incredible
