Mention of Owings Mills, Maryland and Garrison Forest School in “Tom’s Crossing.”

If I had to predict a high-impact story that is flying under the radar now but will play a big role in next year's major federal and state elections in the U.S., it'll be electricity prices and data centers. Easy-to-understand affordability and corruption story.

Absolutely believe that one of the reasons the Epstein files have remained hidden is that he had deep ties global intelligence networks. And that involves Dems, GOP, and corporations.

I don’t trust anyone with neat bookshelves. Your books need to be jammed tightly, stacked irregularly, with books shoved horizontally on top of other books to fill all available space. Shelves must be sagging under the weight. Then, and only then, you are one of my people.

I wanted to like del Toro’s Frankenstein more than I did. And yeah, I LOL’d at that one particular line.

what the actual fuck

Working but would much rather be reading "Tom's Crossing." It's been a long time since I've been so sucked into a novel. I'm about a third of the way in (320 pages) and deeply engrossed. I so love the characters and want them all to be OK.

NEW: @propublica.org investigated the Chicago apartment raid where kids were zip-tied and citizens detained for hours. They find: - NONE of the arrested were criminally charged - NO evidence the building was "filled with TdA terrorists." - ZERO legitimate reason for DHS to rappel from a Blackhawk.

Are we finally waking up from this long national nightmare?

I hate to say I told you so. I really really hate that I knew this was coming, but cornered animals do horrible things.

Megyn Kelly said she thinks “there’s a difference between a 5 year old and a 15 year old” when it comes to sexual abuse. Megyn Kelly has a 14 year old daughter. Megyn Kelly is going to Hell.

'Matt Gaetz Raped A Homeless Teenager' is what you mean. A teenager with a homeless parent? What? The fuck? Did she have a home and not allow her parent to live in it? Ended up having sex with? What? Yeah clearly you guys been caping for pedos long enough and you understand the assignment here

Removing a monument honoring Black US soldiers has nothing to do with DEI. It’s erasure of history and it’s straight-up racism.

At the same time the NY Times was hyping Hillary Clinton's emails, it had a reporter with emails from Jeffrey Epstein that were highly damaging to Trump. The more NYT apologists try to minimize this the clearer it becomes that they don't understand why much of the public doesn't trust legacy media.

JFC, this is grotesque.

Really, really hope there’s not a panicked document shredding and hard drive smashing party going on in the bowels of the DOJ right now.

Going on the record now, as soon as something *really* damning leaks from the Epstein files, bombs will start raining down on Venezuela.

An excellent analysis of the moral panics around D&D. youtu.be/OpjV-melB-c?...

Wanton murder is a deal-breaker for some democracies. Who knew?

Solar’s price drop is astonishing: panels are now 98% cheaper than when I first analyzed them in 2004. Today, building a fence with solar can be cheaper than using wood.

Because so many people have asked, I'm looking into taking my Tarot Boot Camp on the road (mid-Atlantic region for now). Do you know of any great arts venues, retreat centers, or spiritual bookstores that might want to host 30-75 people? I can do daylong or weekend intensives. Let me know & thanks!

Popular Mechanics has pretty much transformed into the Weekly World News.

Queen Ghislaine even has a puppy at Club Fed. This is how convicted sex traffickers are coddled by the Trump admin. www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/d...

More beef tallow! Gruel can replace free student lunches! Arrest the seed oil peddlers!

Uh ...

@bcdreyer.social do you have any thoughts on the increasing use of "around" to mean "about," as in, "We're having conversations around copy editing"? It grates when I hear it (constantly) or come across it when I'm editing, but am I being persnickety? Is this a lost cause?

These horrific extrajudicial murder videos are snuff films, pure and simple.

Cowards die many times before their deaths, The valiant never taste of death but once.

Just call the Execrable Eight “spelunkers.” They all caved.

Lucy PROMISES that if Charlie Brown just does what she asks she will absolutely, positively NOT pull the football away the next time he goes for a kick.

Hey @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social and @schumer.senate.gov: compromising with fascists is compliance. Read the room. Do your jobs. Protect your constituents.

Blessed are the billionaires, for they shall steal food from the mouths of the hungry.

The Washington Post editorial board is the one dropping the mask here. The Bezosification is complete—and it’s appalling. “Look, here’s the terrible socialist framed by two Black men! He’s gonna steal your money and give it to *those* people!”

this sort of thing makes me feel sincerely that we have fallen from grace as a civilisation

We often forget how far we have come: Today almost 3/4 of EU electricity generation is from non-fossil energy sources. It is not long ago that fossil fuels dominated the EU's electricity mix. This year their share is approaching 1/4 of EU electricity generation. Source is @ember-energy.org

Things are getting scary financial wise. Haven't had a commission in months & old former clients who promised me they were going to call me 'real soon' are ghosting me I've never had a client reaching out from Bsky, but I'll try once again: please visit absurdbydesign.com to check my illustrations

Poor little bigoted Tommy Tubesock

Abolish Border Patrol.

When the dust settles, the "AI is the future of tech and will save the world!" myth is gonna be seen as the epitome of human greed, hubris, and stupidity. Sadly, when the bubble pops, so will the global economy.

Dozing Donald

Yes, we are in a bubble, and yes, it's gonna be really bad when it pops.

The first print run of Magic for the Resistance has sold out already! I am delighted that it is having renewed life at such an important time.

Guess I should take a 2-week vacation.

Dick Cheney dies, Zohran Mamdani wins, a beaver moon shines in the sky… I just know the Etsy witches have been busy.
