Irrational fear of a non-existent threat, shit taste in music, and a creepy, near pedophiliac age difference. Yup. Guy probably claims to be a Christian, too... Yeah, JUST like the GOP controlled US govt.

But less overused!

I've always been indifferent to Kimmel, but he and his team did what they needed to do tonight. m.youtube.com/watch?v=c1tj...

Oh, please!

Next time someone asks what I teach, I'm just going to show this image from the Immersive Experience Network.

How about: Randall and Hopkirk (Deceased). UFO. Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman. Police Squad. The Phoenix. The Critic. Space: Above and Beyond.

I went through the disgusting 238-page Epstein birthday book. It's not easy, but take a look. And SHARE this and all Trump-Epstein content so we can keep the pressure on an bring down each and every predator involved. mdavis19881.substack.com/p/epstein-xi...

@jefftiedrich.bsky.social An important thing to remember about all today's debate over Charlie Kirk is Donald Trump is still on every page of the Epstein documents.

Throw the book at whoever killed Charlie Kirk—no matter who it is. And throw the book at whoever helped enable what Jeffrey Epstein was doing or profited from it personally, professionally, or financially—no matter who it is. I’m a rule of law guy, like any responsible citizen.

Thread. Accurate. While I will not mourn Charlie Kirk - and acknowledge the irony in death by gun with his stated views on gun violence, and while dodging a gun violence question - no one should be murdered by gun violence, and I hope the shooter is caught and punished according to Law.

Well put.

Charlie Kirk is no loss to humanity, but, dammit, now he's a martyr, and an excuse for Trump to accelerate his fascism. apnews.com/article/char...

(🚨) The Proof Project is celebrating the revelation that Trump lied to America and the justice system about his pedophilic birthday note to Epstein—both text and image are pedophilic—by releasing Book Two of PROOF OF DEVILRY (pp. 201-400) for FREE. The full story is *so* much worse than you know.

Slightly diminish a book. "Serf of the Rings."

I wish this had gone to trial, but the payout is significant, and the destruction of the pirated data set important. www.wired.com/story/anthro...

Damn shame mobilesyrup.com/2025/09/02/b...

I guess for no reason at all, I'm reposting a piece I wrote two years ago, entitled "Republicans don't give a fuck about children."

Article isn't wrong - more's the pity. www.thehandbasket.co/p/america-ti...

Ye Olde 1979 model Atari 800 (w "CITA" graphics chip instead of upgraded "GITA" chip introduced in 1980) with 16k RAM and the Atari 410 tape drive. Later upgraded to the full mighty 48k RAM and an Indus GT DS/DD floppy drive. Star Raiders is still a great game.

This will be a bit of a vaguebook, but, for my magically/spiritually inclined friends, if you could spare the occasional thought of "Josh, be OK," that would be lovely. Asking for a friend.

Honestly, I can't get through more than a chapter a day. Why is Seth posting so much music? It's got to be how he's holding onto sanity after wading through this vile shit.

Sigh. I do not look forward to wading into this. Seth's books are meticulous in research, sourcing, citing, and conclusion, with each more disturbing than the last. If Seth can emerge research/writing with sanity intact, I can handle the education.

The intent here is to raise an army of cretins who will follow instructions and have no risk of ever having an independent thought.

There's only one person in Russia who wants this war to continue. That man has an arrest warrant out for him. Taking Putin into custody after luring him onto American soil would be the first genius geopolitical move Trump has ever made. So what will he do instead? Hand over most of Ukraine.

Trump lied and said he could end the Russian war of choice in Ukraine in 24 hours. His lie helped him get elected. Now he's about to be with Putin on American soil. Arresting Putin for his war crimes would end the war in Ukraine. Will he try to honor his promise? Of course not.

World Athletics says that "The SRY gene is a reliable proxy for determining biological sex." The guy who literally discovered the gene and has spent the last 35 years researching it says they're wrong. theconversation.com/world-athlet...

I got it. Fuck...I got it. I was trained as a criminal investigator at Georgetown and Harvard, worked as a federal criminal investigator in DC, practiced Criminal Law—including sex crimes and homicides—for years, and was sure if I dedicated myself I’d figure out what Trump is hiding. And now I have.

As Seth says, a long (I haven't finished it myself, yet) and harrowing (just the intro alone!) read.

A long and well researched breakdown of Trump's most vile cover up yet.

It's not the "John Holmes" Americans of a certain age may think of... But the "No Entry" sign still makes it funnier.

This piece from May provides essential context for the big bill the GOP just passed. To some extent, the bill is just the latest example of bad GOP policy making. It is that, but it's also part of a broader ideological project to dismantle the New Deal state. www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

The implication of this piece (which the author shies from) is that the Republic based on the US Constitution as currently written has irretrievably failed. What follows will be different, hopefully better, but that won’t happen without major changes.

1. Trump's megabill will slash nutrition assistance for poor families, cause 17 million people to lose their health insurance, and add over $3 trillion to the deficit -- all to finance tax cuts for the rich. IN THIS THREAD, I WILL LIST THE COMPANIES THAT PUBLICLY SUPPORTED THIS BILL.

She's not wrong.

Another one of Seth insightful, extensively sourced and cited reports... There's a big damn "7 Day Free Trial" button, cuz I'm really sick of the inevitable "Paywall" whining from some rando whenever I share one of his articles.

fellow nonfiction writers! if you're not currently saving EVERY SINGLE web page/web news story you cite to the Wayback Machine YOU SHOULD BE!! no more dead links in footnotes! no more dead links in bibliographies! never ever forget how fragile the internet is—save internet history!

RIP Jim Shooter, 73. Writer, artist, editor, at DC and Marvel (including 9 years as Marvel Editor in Chief) before founding Valiant Comics. Arguably his most important influence was spearheading "Direct Sales," moving books to specialty stores rather than newsstands. www.forbes.com/sites/robsal...

I make no apologies for this utterly wrong "favorite Doctor Who." (Wrong answers only)
