saw a chart earlier showing cbs news has lost 20% of its audience after less than a week of having this dope at the helm. apparently the goal is to get everyone so tanked they don’t care.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just launched flash bang grenades at protesters in front of federal building in Minneapolis—causing massive explosions. "It's terrorizing, this isn't the America I served for 20 years in the U.S. Navy," tearful protester tells us. WE'RE LIVE NOW ⬇️

Most of you follow for my art, but I live in Minneapolis right now & I have to tell you how bad things are here now. I'm not sure if what you're seeing on the news really does it justice. It's basically a battle ground on the streets.

Fucking Austria, man…

Candlelight service in memory of Renee Nicole Good in Anchorage tonight.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Please understand what it means when journalists are evacuating their family members out of town. In any other country, we would be approaching "foreign sanctions" territory

This is the Iranian version of "Russian warship, go f*ck yourself!" Cool and brave. A symbol and a challenge for the Iranian regime.

I am only now catching up with the theory that Trump's fixation on Greenland is because of its enormous size on Mercator Projection maps

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University. (And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.) /

There is a very odd gulf between how much sci-fi covered nuclear war and how it avoids climate change. Every sci-fi book had some nod to Armageddon up until the end of the Cold War.

Comic Sans and Blackletter, I hope.

That was one of the things that initially drew me to trying to write professionally, but the advent of chain bookstores and the internet soon changed it.

This is high-quality extrapolation, worthy of your attention.

all this is both foolish and unnecessary

Great cover on this new Hayakawa edition. Does Case look almost but not quite Keanu-esque to you?

I know there is a whole formality to announcements like this, studio departments and legal to go through, but I’m just a crazy man, and to hell with it… BlueSky… is the unofficial social media Ap of the ROGUE TROOPER movie! There. I’ve said it!

Blows my mind that some of the same journalists who see Trump as a want-to-be dictator at home are earnestly discussing the "challenges" for this same man to "bring democracy" to a country it just illegal invaded. Please grow up.

Quite the unintentionally ironic use of this song about young men whose fathers were rich enough to get them out of the draft!

HAPPY HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎆

Nothing could better sum up where we are as a culture

I can’t get over how one directional Instagram feels… I liked old Twitter & now BlueSky because they feel like local pubs you go into and join chats with old mates and new. Instagram feels like you are walking into the backstage at a theatre where everyone is practicing their monologues.

If you wonder whether your country is subject to Russian disinformation, the answer is always yes.

They probably assume it's communist-related.

Donovan Metayer, a survivor of the 2018 Parkland school shooting in Florida, died by suicide at age 26 on Dec. 15. Even after a mental health hold, he was allowed to purchase the gun with which he ended his life.

Hard no to this: French publisher Harlequin has told translators that their work will now be done by AI. They can ‘revise’ AI translations at much lower rate. It’s a subsidiary of Harper Collins so treat this as a test for rollout elsewhere
