Bolsonaro may die in prison. Bangladesh's PM was just sentenced to death for ordering last year's brutal crackdown. Are any politicians running on a "We gotta start stacking these fascists like fucking cordwood" platform?

People believe they should be able to simply check a box or cast a vote to get the future they want. That’s a consumer fantasy. Nothing works that way. Systems & cultures reflect who and what we are - not what we claim to be or want. The values we do not embody and live, we forfeit as a society.

It’s tiresome seeing people fantasize about prominent figures of The Regime standing trial. The US has neither the system nor culture to enforce accountability for governing class offenders. That so many United Statists remain in Denial about this says a great deal about Fascism’s ascendancy.

Why do they keep making new music when the best stuff all came out when I was a teen?

“why the fuck are we invading Venezuela” should really be on at least a couple of chyrons

With Black Friday behind us, we can return to the important things - like Caturday. To honor our fabulous feline rulers, we made a few artifacts of devotion. And honestly… did the worship ever stop? 😹 #caturday #art #cats

Today is the day! Make some phone calls to Visa and Mastercard if youre able to and keep it going as much as you can muster until monday!

One of the great, unremarked crimes of the Trump administration is to make those of us with "charmingly weird eccentricities" seem like the most strait-laced members of the the Wisconsin Evangelical Lutheran Synod by comparison to these clowns:

For the life of her, Chloe could not figure out how what had seemed like such a good plan, had gone so terribly, terribly wrong.

Or do you think they kept track of every one of those nice Javelins and suicide drones?

If there are concerns about ex-child soldiers fresh off fighting your lost war, wait till you hear about the guys with Sonnenrad tattoos currently fighting a losing war for you.

Hey wait. That Kringle fellow hasn't flown within range yet and you're putting away your rocket launcher now?

Introduce yourself with five animals you have seen in the wild: 1. Wall Street Investment Banker 2. Seal Team 6 Meth Head Killer 3. Republican Senator Phil Gramm 4. Corporate V.P. of Finance on a headcount cutting spree 5. Money Laundering El Paso Banker.

OpenAI and Sam Altman can't keep your kid's chatbot from encouraging them into suicide, but apparently don't have as much of a problem keeping a chatbot from encouraging political assassination. Almost as if genAI is an instrument of fascism and power.

"... *some* guardrails are working ..."

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Happy consumerism bonanza day! Throw tomatoes at target/Walmart/Amazon! Get some freaky little presents from artists! Big corps make the wealthy wealthier & artists are trying to buy wet food for their cats. Artists, drop your shops! For a start, check out SquidFacts.net More of my faves below

Double standards

When people call ICE the Gestapo it’s not an exaggeration

Read and heed:

Even with an intact CDC and FDA, 1 out of 6 Americans get foodbourne illnesses each year, and almost no outbreaks were officially identified. What'll change is that more severe, more widespread illnesses will be treated exactly the same: people just left on their own, in the dark.

Slop Evader is a tool from artist and researcher Tega Brain that lets you search the web for results exclusively before November 30, 2022—the day that ChatGPT was released to the public.

One learns to adjust quickly. For example; one stays off the roads on Wednesday evenings because of all the Baptists going to and then coming from, their Wednesday night worship services.

This is how the occupation has turned childhood in Gaza from a dream into a nightmare. After more than two years of bombardment, displacement, and starvation, these children are now enduring the very same suffering for a third consecutive year.

I love it when little garbage cats develop the luxury of food snobbery. Yes he was tiny wet ball of fleas found in a ditch but now he's a velvet prince who wants the premium, organic, grain-free chicken in gravy, NOT the premium, organic, grain-free chicken au jus how dare you offer that garbage.

Seattle and Portland area folks: These two sweeties need a new foster home by December 12th. One boy, one girl, both fixed. They’ll come with food, toys, and litter (also a cat playpen if you want it). Would really appreciate any shares to cast a wider net.

The AI bubble is so out of control most RAM manufacturers have stopped manufacturing RAM for pcs and shifted to high bandwidth RAM for AI computing. There's now such a severe shortage that prices have jump 3-4x in just a month and it is impacting the ability to supply PCs and gaming consoles.

Some of us have come to grips with the fact that repentance and repair are facing us the remainder of our lives.

I can’t wait for PEN to comment on the Israeli intelligence forces storming the Palestinian National Theatre in Jerusalem and threatening the whole cast of the children’s performance and the audience if they didn’t leave in five minutes. Because they won’t.

Reading reviews of TV wall mounts. Came across this reviewer's ending remarks: "...a dream come true when when I was able to mount something new in my bedroom and not get divorced."
