The Cloverdale Mine never made anyone rich. But it meant a lot to Bill Humble, who spent years living at the abandoned mine -building and repairing, surprising hikers, getting away from society. His grandson is trying to preserve the site and that story. www.altaonline.com/dispatches/a...

Boosted my covid vaccine yesterday. Very easy to book at CVS - your preexisting condition is “I do not have the latest covid booster"

Negative-polarity coronal hole no. 80 is directly facing Earth. NOAA SWPC has predicted minor geomagnetic storming starting early on September 22 UTC (not an exact timing) due to the CH effects. We may see auroral visibility extend further equatorward than usual. Stay tuned!

Poster for SHE'S WORKING HER WAY THROUGH COLLEGE (1952) How was this artwork never used in a 1980s punk flyer? I mean, Virgina Mayo's holding up Ronald Reagan's decapitated head for God's sakes.

There is no ethical consumption under capitalism, gotta pick your battles so that you can continue to fight in the war.

Going offline for a bit really does induce bad temporal vertigo. I feel like I've gone joyriding around our little galactic neighborhood at 0.98c for a couple of doughnuts. Meanwhile 85 years of news has happened.

My favourite Robert Redford story is the one about why he got rejected for the lead role in The Graduate. RIP to a real one.

I know it’s fashionable now to kick someone when they’re down but I legit thought the real Coachella poster was one of the fake ones

My fave interview ever is np! abyssradio.net

Gupta […], summarized the current mood among young tech workers in SF as incompatible with the Burner sensibility: “The current vibe is no drinking, no drugs, 9-9-6 [work from 9a to 9p, 6 days a week], lift heavy, run far, marry early, track sleep, eat steak and eggs.” sfstandard.com/2025/08/30/b...

Those who know, know: ILX (I Love Music/I Love Everything/etc) turned twenty-five years old this past Monday. There's something weird in that, and it's never been a perfect run, but still, something good about it all as welll.

The first large-scale Nazi book burning was on 6 May 1933, when Magnus Hirschfeld's Institut für Sexualwissenschaft in Berlin was attacked by Nazi students. It would take decades for science to recover the knowledge about trans-affirming healthcare that was destroyed that day.

I've said repeatedly that socially ostracizing these fuckers is one of the best non violent things that can be done. Ignore, don't engage, don't give them the satisfaction of engaging. Just act like they don't exist or a quick expression of disgust and move on. It will fuck them up so much.

IMO many Americans don't even buy guns for personal protection or to defend themselves against a tyrannical government. They simply have a shopping addiction

I led a “punk science” activity for our incoming freshman biology majors at our orientation event. They made zines and fliers on any topic they chose. Here’s a sample:

I think we all should have been a lot more worried about the NJ drone mass hysteria; especially the way the military, police, politicians, and journalists all got completely sucked into it, absolutely detached from the reality in front of their eyes. People shot at and lasered obvious planes!

Can anyone identify the carving on this softwood platter, at least 90 years old? No idea how it was originally finished, as when found it was thickly lathered with what I imagine was silver radiator paint.

When the Sylmar Earthquake rocked LA on February 8, 1971, it damaged the Olive View Hospital so badly, it had to be bulldozed. When the hospital's electric wall clocks were gathered, all of them (give or take) reflected the moment the quake struck: 6:01 a.m. and 42 sec.

I don’t really think that there’s any difference between calling human beings “NPCs” or calling them cockroaches or “human animals” or any other classic rhetoric of dehumanization and I find it pretty worrying that people who are otherwise concerned with respectability have adopted its use

this doesn't really do anything
