Attempting what's called the Reverse Joe Gould

Reading this makes me SO incredibly happy. I feel like the spirit of Black and Brown punk fest and Black Dot Fest is living on in the city. southsideweekly.com/the-black-pu...

So back in the 70s the line was the Soviet politburo was too old and out of touch to govern and Dem party leadership is now all 20+ years older then they were at the time

Me trying to blow a medieval peasant’s mind: and the downloadable content for the game was actually already on the disc you were just paying to unlock it Peasant(chewing the gas station beef jerky I gave him): I saw the cobbler’s wife kissing Satan’s asshole in the forest Me (mind blown): waaaaaa

Aside from writing, I don't want to do any of the things you need to do to become a successful writer

We enjoyed reading your manuscript for the first modern novel. Unfortunately there are too many inconsistencies regarding Sancho Panza and his donkey, and we have reluctantly decided not to publish it at this time. We hope to consider more of your work in the future.

I think it's a little misleading for an antique dealer to display an ancient talisman of mysterious and forbidden power if it's not really for sale

There is no such thing as “the perfect crime,” you just have to commit the best crime you can

I think we can all agree that if a movie is going to be more than two hours it has to be really good

Kyle Reese: Understand. That Terminator is out there. It can't be bargained with, it can't be reasoned with, it doesn't feel pity or remorse or fear, and it absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead. The Terminator:

TurboTax and H&R Block spent $7 million lobbying the Trump administration to kill Direct File. Both companies donated to Trump's 2024 campaign and inauguration committees.

I just had to reread something I'd written in a previous issue to refresh my memory and thought, "Damn, that's really good"

it just lifts my heart to feel heard. thanks, ICE lawyer. 💜

On the plus side it looks like I won't be helping to pay for any crimes against humanity this tax season, but it's getting a little tight around here if you've ever considered buying something thedreadfulpoint.com/catalog/

You never have to worry about this kind of thing from me

Voters in a small Missouri town, unhappy with the city council’s approval of a $6B data center, ousted all four incumbent council members running for reelection

I don’t know how people keep forgetting that workers rights were entirely written in blood and the capital class had to be threatened with violence before they agreed to things like 8 hour working days and 2 day weekends.

For more than a week, Amazon has managed to keep a death at its Troutdale, Oregon, facility out of public view. Workers I spoke to are pissed.

"Check it: "

Voters in Festus MO, a Republican stronghold, just ousted every incumbent council member in response to a data center approval. "Data center opposition is on the rise in every nook and cranny of the country — and it may have a massive influence on more than just local elections this November."

If you enjoyed "As the Shore to the Tides, So Blood Calls to Blood", I wrote a novella in that setting, a story about families, the curses they bear, and fighting the good fight - even in the face of Death. I'm serializing it in my newsletter so consider signing up: buttondown.com/crosshatches

I have seen one good example of this plate

Spanish PM Pedro calls for the IMMEDIATE ARREST of Netanyahu He said: "Netanyahu launched the worst possible unjustified attack against Lebanon. His contempt for life and international law is intolerable. He is a criminal that must be arrested immediately.” #cdnpoli

Even if there is no further escalation (and what has been done is already beyond the pale) the casual fucking threat is more than enough. We recognize the words "I am going to kill you and your entire family" for what they are when it's some random asshole saying them never mind the US president.

Let me say this plainly: Iranian children have as much of a right to live and thrive as American children. Their babies MUST be as precious to me as my 6 niblings and my baby grandnib are IF I want them to have a future. If I want a future for my kin AND humanity, I MUST act like it. So must you.

the levels of elite impunity we are seeing now and the levels of war crimes we are seeing now are two aspects of the same path of historical development. right now they see war as our problem (and their investment opportunity). it is world historically important that we make war their problem again

I'm behind on the latest issue due to artistic principle
