Join my father (Mark Hall-Patton) and I as we discuss the disparity between academic and public history, especially in regards to museums. Most historians are not academics, but the misconception that they are leads to many problems youtube.com/live/gG66zUd...

Took me a while to be ready to write this, but here's my post about Matt. I still can't fully believe he's gone.

the permission structure created for a bloodthirsty maga rampage the last two days by mainstream media, all before any facts were known at all, deserves some real introspection by the entire industry

any outlet that reported the “pro-trans ideology on bullet casings” thing owes the public an apology and an explanation if you are serious about turning down the temperature, start by showing some shame and regret for your role in turning it up in the first place by allowing yourself to be played

Politicians and rich people only condemn violence as "political" when it kills someone rich and famous. When trans people are targeted for violence by the state or by right wing influencers, when immigrants are racially profiles and put in camps, when protestors are brutalized, that's just normal.

After dealing with years of seeing Palestinian children blown apart by bombs while being told it’s fine I’m not gonna take the handwringing of political violence in America not being acceptable

y’all know what one of the first nazi book burnings was right? y’all know why they did it y’all know trans people were one of their first targets and even the ALLIES left us in the camps when liberating everyone else y’all see what’s right in front of you, right?

Dear librarians who were burned by CrunchyRoll: HIDIVE gave me written permission to screen their anime for public library events. Pass it on!

lol, mastercard posted two paragraphs responding to the recent headlines on adult gaming censorship. the campaign is definitely working: www.mastercard.com/us/en/news-a...

"[A] new bipartisan bill [STOP HATE Act] would force social media companies to censor criticism of Israel." "Reps. Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.) and Don Bacon (R-Neb.) rolled out the bill [..] alongside Jonathan Greenblatt, the CEO of the Anti-Defamation League." #Gaza #Palestine #Israel #USA #Genocide

on the one hand we should want people to change their mind so we can stop what's happening now. On the other hand there need to be costs for the ghoulish behavior that got us here, as these people absolutely will do this again given half a chance

at what point do we just airdrop five thousand Canada geese onto the White House lawn and let them consume him www.ctvnews.ca/world/trumps...

Leaked documents confirm that Microsoft is providing millions of dollars worth of cloud computing and AI surveillance tools to coordinate airstrikes which have killed over 50,000 Palestinians so far. Microsoft employees demand an end to ties with the Israeli military. Eko.org/microsoft

“Please send us emails instead” means “we can put key words from your script on our corporate spam filter and ignore you, but calls shut down our entire contact infrastructure” Keep fucking calling.

I love how study after study after study shows that simply giving people financial stability and free time with no strings attached leads to better outcomes for *everybody*, and yet society keeps rejecting that solution by saying, "But then how would poor people know to be ashamed of themselves???"

Revolutions podcast host @mikeduncan.bsky.social gets into how stupidity leads to revolutions.

Rikers, not ICE: "More than 80% of people confined there have not been convicted of a crime and endure horrific conditions as they wait for trial...On the outside, family members are desperate for information, as backlogged courts leave their loved ones indefinitely trapped in inhumane conditions."

trump getting ratio’d on truth social over his recent epstein posts is insane

The lasting legacy of Marx will be how useful Das Capital is in constructing fantasy and sci-fi settings.

This is cold comfort I realize but we might have gotten lucky that the biggest pro-Trump thought leader is a genuine moron rather than a bad-faith moron

Musk has adjusted Grok’s algorithm so it’s now a neo-Nazi. Pretty cool that almost every progressive commentator, elected official and organization still uses Musk’s X algorithm to communicate with the public! Good job guys.

It’s times like these I wish I were more into sports. Anyways, WIN IT FOR THE VTUBERS!!!!!!!

I have this stupid recurring fantasy whenever I’m fiddling with my Rubik’s cube that my next job interviewer will tell me to solve it and I’ll pull out all the tricks like I’m fucking Akagi or some shit

Rich people will pay millions in bribes to avoid paying extra thousands on taxes for the public good

*Biden tries to forgive student loans* SCOTUS: Whoa there, that is, uh, a major question. Which means you can't do it. *Trump revokes part of the constitution* SCOTUS: Obviously, we got to give the President the benefit of the doubt on this one.

Kyouko Okazaki is actually so real for just typing her art issues out in a whole ass panel lmao

Anytime someone asks me about Akira

hey panera can we have the lemonade that kills us again

If you're arrested in Illinois protesting against Trump's war on Iran for Israel, I can represent you pro bono. Email me at [email protected].

illegal war started by a man constitutionally ineligible to be president

Guess which stupid fucking country has declared war on Iran? God fucking damn this shit nation

One of the primary issues with these sorts of “principles” of art is that they’re only helpful to people looking to create cartoons for children or teenagers, or for video games with quirky character rosters.
