this is basically portland's version of a haka

David Cross folks.

I've been posting some real chaotic shit today, here's a pudgy western bluebird to end your day with a little peace and awww 🪶

I am so sick of Ezra Klein being taken seriously.

I’m never going to stop being mad that hedge funds and tech middlemen siphoned off all the money that should’ve let someone like Kaleb Horton have the career he deserved

Kaleb Horton RIP.

"She had tears streaming down her face, and she told me one of the ICE agents pulled out his cell phone, laughing, and took a selfie," Schutzstaffel level psychopath

Fun night at the Riyadh Comedy Festival! Got to see Jimmy Carr and his opening act, three university students beheaded for apostasy. Wild ride!! 😂🤣

i keep saying this but what i hate most about the ezra kleins of the world is their insistence is that politics is about messaging and triangulating. its never about offering a compelling vision of the world, its about trying desperately to capitulate to whatever moment we are in

"It wasn't Hitler or Himmler who deported me, beat me and shot my family. It was the cobbler, the milkman, the neighbor who got a uniform and then believed they were the master race." (Karl Stojka, Auschwitz survivor)

Nature finds that the world's wealthiest 10% are responsible for 67% of global warming.

OMG. Tom Homan was reportedly under FBI investigation for taking $50,000 in cash allegedly in exchange for a commitment to steer government contracts to a specific company. The entire thing was recorded, as it was an FBI sting operation. The Trump admin dropped the investigation entirely.

Dr. Kathleen Gallagher, a U.S. military veteran and surgeon who has treated battleground victims in Iraq, Afghanistan and Ukraine, says the injuries and devastation she is witnessing in Gaza are “worse than I’ve ever seen.”

this is, hands down, the best video I've seen on men's influencer content and it's not close either

rightwing media ecosystem operates by stoking hatred and anger and divisions every single day, they want people to constantly be afraid and want people to hate eachother, everything we are seeing is a result of the destablization the right has profited off of

Proud to have been a part of Kyle D'Odorico's short film, Diamond Belly. Thanks to Mighty Asian Movie Marathon & Vancouver Asian Film Festival for a great premiere.

Today it begins with two blank 36 x 24 cork boards. @benrock.com & I are gonna write some scary stuff on cards, put them on the boards, write a script, and if our studio likes it, we'll make an audio show. It feels good to be back home again, making stuff with one of my best friends.

We're one more sign up away from launching our crowdfund! Read our platform and sign today!

Unless you've seen that one clip from the West Wing, it may be hard to picture the sheer breadth of Africa based on the maps you're most familiar with, so here's the real sizes of Australia *and* the United States *and* China *and* Greenland *and* Scandinavia relative to Africa on a Mercator map.

20 years ago I began writing a story about where all *this* was headed way into the future. Despite my best efforts, it never left my head. And so I've finally given up my efforts. Issue 1 of Powerscape is due September! Please sign up for updates about Issues 2 & 3 here! zoop.gg/c/powerscape...

"This is just our new reality and we need to be prepared. We need a change in mindset and a recognition that this can, and probably will, happen in so many parts of our country" Because Oil Companies Didn't Want Us To Have Clean Energy.

This clip of the Korean production of Chicago is several years old, but it features Choi Jae-rim, the actor playing Billy Flynn, doing **actual ventriloquism**: youtu.be/kCWBWXyUh2Q?...

This is one of the most beautiful things I have witnessed, the craft here is impeccable.

“I smoke meth,” she says tonelessly. He says that lots of good people smoke meth. She turns around and looks at him like he’s told her the sky is orange. Outside, the sky is orange.

New episode: @anamariecox.bsky.social and @mike-eagle.bsky.social ask what it really means to do creative work in public. From touring to Substack, they break down the emotional and economic toll of building your own brand, and what gets lost in the process. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/i...

Governor Pritzker is right. No more blank checks for Netanyahu’s right-wing government and its military. No more blank checks for war crimes against Palestinians. forward.com/fast-forward...

i will never not be amused by how the conservative world is governed by the kind of “affirmative action” they say happens in mainstream institutions. totally unqualified dipshits are handed the keys to institutions because they say the right thing and have the right look.

i have an idea to revitalize the film industry: make A-list actors find out if they're in a movie by making them check the cast list posted on the theater door

We have learned that one of the women taken on Alvarado and 8th is Sabrina Medina, a pregnant U.S. Citizen expecting twins from Huntington Park, whom Kristi Noem targeted and was present last month for a photo op.

Issue #1 of my comic series Powerscape planned for a September print!

MASS HUNGER STRIKE AT ALLIGATOR ALCATRAZ Those detained at Alligator Alcatraz are on their 10th day of a hunger strike against the conditions. And we’re all just now finding out. At least one person has already been hospitalized where they also refused food. Article below/

one of the single best deals in streaming. i've been paying for PBS Passport for years. it rules

I want the version of my childhood where Bernard King didn't blow his knee out, and/or we had a fully funded public health system outside of the profit motive where modern-day knee repairs were achievable in the 80's

every day I see this economy shit on some of the most talented and brilliant minds on earth and I marvel at the strength they find to push through to the next day

Settlers murdered the teacher Awda Al-Hadhaleen in the village of Umm al-Kheir today. Teachers and education in general have been a long-standing enemy of the settlers (see my pinned thread of IDF school bombings) and is reflected in studies on Israeli literacy rates: www.oecd.org/en/publicati...

Incredible use of applied theatre for language preservation at UVic Theatre:

Feel like I'm watching an incredible new generation of young filmmakers come up just as the scaffolding for mainstream films is about to give way and completely crash. Hope they find a way to collectively make something to take its place

My parents were working class, never educated in gender theory. 30 years ago a friend told them they were a (trans) woman. There was discussion about it, my folks called her she. This was before “the whole pronoun thing.” No debate, no jokes, they just did it. It’s not hard!!!

JFC this story. Guy survived torture under Pinochet and was granted asylum in 1987. Went to replace his green card after losing his wallet & was disappeared and deported without explanation.

In 2023, the City Council passed a package of laws expanding access to housing vouchers. Eric Adams vetoed it. Then the Council overrode his veto. The Mayor refused to implement it. Now a court says he has to. What a ridiculous waste of time during a housing crisis.
