Delighted to see this pop up again. Next Generation's "Best of Both Worlds", done like it was its Filmation animate predecessor. Everything about this is spot on. Picard's little side-eyes. The music. The colour of the Borg cube. So, so good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YKlS...

Long before ANDOR, BABYLON 5 warned us of how fascism raises quitely and slowly until it feels “normalized.” Heck, even predicted the use of blonde-haired woman used as the “pleasant” face of the movement. And the use of “aliens” as the scapegoat.

Trump’s effort to rebrand the Kennedy Center in his own name is illegal, a federal judge ruled. The ruling is a stinging blow for the president, who has made clear his personal stake in the rebranding and remodeling of the Kennedy Center.

The American government is turning its back on the things that made us a global leader in science, engineering, and technology. Independent science — vetted by rigorous peer review, not political hacks — is crucial. This undermines our future. www.scientificamerican.com/article/whit...

Most countries drastically increase their use of coal and other fossil fuels when industrializing. India seems to be taking a different path, running their dramatic economic growth mostly on renewables, especially solar. They will be the first major country to industrialize this way. #goodnews

Looks like he actually listened to the criticism. Good, but I don't know why he made that deal with the devil in the first place. He had to know there would be intense backlash, right?

I have a new piece out Reflecting on 20 years of migrant struggles, it goes into what abolish ICE does - and doesn't - mean; merging of immigration enforcement with policing & military power; and how fascism is made through bordering. Despite resisting it for so long, I also now define the border.

It is true, Natives like everyone else in this moment are being terrorized by ICE. Natives have been harassed, questioned, detained and threatened with deportation such was the case with Leticia Jacobo. azmirror.com/2025/11/12/a...

➡️ Once you realize that the two most profitable businesses are war and illness, it’s easy to understand what’s going on. - War keeps you afraid. - Illness keeps you dependent. This is not chaos. This is a system. And it is working "exactly" as it was "designed" to work." ~ Arindam Banerrji

Generative AI has never made it more clear how deeply entrenched creative industries are in a class war we're actively losing and it just feels real fucking bad getting a thorough accounting of every single person you respected willing to sell out all their colleagues for quick cash

Wow. So let me get this straight - they steal the data, they steal the jobs, and we also have to pay hundreds more in household bills. So we just have this mass-thieves leaching on the economy, with essentially no actual use. And it's chill? It's normal? www.theguardian.com/technology/2...

Please continue to support indie animation like The Amazing Digital Circus. We need it more than ever. Continue to support real artists who make human made art. Also, Gooseworx deserves all the support, rest, and money after everything.

Yeah letting this go would absolutely mean Patagonia lost their trademark. They're suing for $1 plus legal fees. And basically had no other option if they wanted to maintain their trademark.

Good morning Seattle. Welcome your new neighbor. Zuckerberg’s $300M megayacht arrived in Seattle just hours after layoffs impacting roughly 1,400 employees in King County were announced by Meta. This vessel drew crowds and criticism as it traveled through the Ballard Locks toward Lake Union. WTF 🤬

This is what's wrong with Hollywood and the entire entertainment industry. Not remakes, sequels, or media that you don't like. It is greedy, meddling, out of touch executives who treat employees, devs, artists, and art itself like disposable garbage.

Immigrant detainees at Delaney Hall ICE prison in Newark, NJ have been forced to cook, clean, & repair the facility for as little as $1/day and sometimes for free. They are on a hunger & labor strike; protesters outside have been tear-gassed. Here's our report, including a quote from a detainee:
