Worried that I wouldn’t like kotsk but now I’m in the much worse position of loving it and having no more episodes.

AI has always been ridiculous to me, but I don’t even like backup cameras on cars, or cars in general.

Why is it that a prince of the realm must be jailed so that a moldy orange nouveau riche might be spared?

I'm convinced AI is our generation's radium - a discovery with genuinely useful applications in specific, controlled circumstances that we stupidly put in everything from kid's toys to toothpaste until we realised the harm far too late where future generations will ask if we were out of our minds.

Look man that Trump post was racist as hell but now my feed is full of Obamas lionization and I can’t stress enough the problems with ICE and an unaccountable reactionary right are inseparable from choices Obama made. Now is not the time to whitewash their role in all this

Littlefinger is a proto liberal capitalist, who, similar to today’s Democrats, wanted to prolong the Gramscian nightmare at the end of the Targaryen reign. In this essay I will

Reform + retrain = collaboration. The Dems want to collaborate with the white power party because they share organizing principles (capital).

Disappointed there hasn’t been a single “Bovino put out to pasture” headline.

If they won’t release the names of the goons who committed murder then I’m changing my stance on collective punishment.

Been going to the 25th anniversary rerelease of LOTR with my 15yo this weekend and last and trying to keep up with the ongoing state terrorism, an ice storm, and a parent’s unexpected hospitalization. During what is definitely my 100th plus rewatch of two towers yesterday I occurred to me that the

They’re training grok to make cp as a preemptive defense against the full Epstein revelations.

People do not want to reckon with the actual purpose of policing. That's all I'll say about that.

Let’s play guess the author.

At times I dream recursively dozens of times in one night, each time waking disoriented because it feels more solid than a normal dream. Last night I danced to Tipper in a Welsh field with Rebecca Ferguson. She wore platforms that put us eye to eye & was just as strange and beautiful as in real life

in fact, neither mlk jr or malcolm x posed any true threat to fascist government until they 1) began expressing admiration for the work of the other... and 2) expanded their protests from race struggle to class struggle. this is, of course, what got them killed; as well as fred hampton.

First successful lions mane grow is finally fruiting. Found a good spot and got fruit bodies in under 9 months from bulk to fruit. Time to scale up for next years market.

Imagine being too ignorant to know what a Luddite is then someone puts you in charge of a plagiarism machine. Pathetic.

Sonnet fulment

The Portal Stage at Legend Vally lit up for Tipper’s last show at the venue. #secretdreams #tipper

movie youve watched more than six times with a gif. hard mode: no star wars, star trek, lord of the rings, or marvel.

@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social Talking about how his dad got into US activism after hearing SNCC members sing Florence Reece’s “which side are you on” is exactly what I needed today. www.tiktok.com/t/ZTj3MwYxn/

Yezzan zo Qaggaz but worse.

Meanwhile, every anarchist I know: are you hungry I just grew these greens, can you help me fill up this donation box before my volunteer shift?

One thing you never want to do to a tire if you want it to remain pressurized is to cut a pice of brake line at a 45° angle around 2” long and allow it to puncture the sidewall. This will cause the tire to lose pressure quickly, a bad time.

Who could have predicted that in the end the imperial army would be turned on its own citizens. Totally unforeseen outcome, unprecedented in history.

A piece of an elegy I wrote after the death of a brother. Check image for proper line breaks. 2:syllogism The grief of what might have been is always heavier than the grief of what was Two sheaves of grief will be provided to you and that is why you have two arms

I haven’t watched wrestling in decades but I know kayfabe when I see it.

Studying stone and wood in my limited spare time.

Mutual Aid community garden is coming along. Very cool to see this place slowly turning into something that helps the community. Also cool to see kids learning to love growing their own food and being interested in the local biome. Cultural ecotone.

Sonnet fragment

Great Spangled Fritillary.

An example of why first principles are imperative: tuned the carb on my chainsaw the other day and it ran great. Then it stopped running completely. Spent half an hour resetting the carb trying to get it running again. It was out of gas the whole time. When problem solving, start from the beginning.

Vitamix does not like blending garlic scapes. Overheated in record time. Might have to finally buy an actual food processor.

“But what if the Palestinian account is scamming me out of my $5?” —guy who drops $50 a week on scratch offs or sports gambling.

Been spending more time around some of my extended family since moving to the farm and it is real lumpenprole hours around here. Fanon would have a field day with these guys.

Every day I walk outside and hear dozens of birds, see hundreds of plants, numerous bugs, and fungi. Then I get online and see burning children, people who are just fine with that, and I wonder, why do we get this and they get that, and how long until it arrives here. I know the answer: not long.

Rogan is a liberal, that the Democrats don’t see that liberalism is the precursor to fascism is a real problem.

JD Vance is a fraudulent pseudo hillbilly with no soul who will never see heaven. He will gladly talk about his KY roots when it suits him but when disaster strikes he is nowhere to be found.

We gave them our coal and our timber, and they left us alone, we took their money and ignored them because we had each other.

Huge swath of devastation from tornadoes just the next county over. This is the at least the fourth major storm event to hit Kentucky in the past 4 years.

Very cool that my region doesn’t have an overnight forecaster on staff now especially since we’ve had historic flooding and tornadoes multiple times in the past 3 years.

An easy way to see the US is broken is that potential harm threats/death threats against powerful people are taken more seriously than those against vulnerable people even though vulnerable people are, by definition, more prone to harm.

Thinking about how the first four Andor arcs are about running or escaping from different types of oppressive experiences 1- the past 2- economic 3- the carceral state 4- grief And how the second four are about running toward the healthy versions of those things.

Have some potentially bad personal economic news so naturally my first reaction is “gonna need to plant more beans”.

Andor pulled it off, probably because Gilroy is a Gramsciist.

I am *begging* people to look up the actual history of the Luddite movement with it being bandied about everywhere. They weren't anti-tech, they were anti-exploitation, anti-Industrialist, pro-worker safety textile worker radicals who disabled factory machines that were maiming and killing workers.
