On a placard stapled to a power pole, a poem entitled “i am not a poet” but I have come to learn that there are many poems which do not need to rhyme. instead, they reveal a truth yet still, there are others, perhaps not strictly true, that reflect in their rhymes the cadence of the universe.

Jesus. Fucking. Christ. This kid wants to get out of detention in time for his school spelling bee. What the fuck are we doing.
A small bookshop called "March Hare" has put many books out in cardboard boxes, all marked with "$1.00" or "$5.00" labels. bunny passersby on the street flip through the books casually
Daily bunny no.3256 is looking through the paperbacks
Have you seen this? Absolutely crazy work. Thief-style game, unique approach to the visual style that makes realtime 3D approximate spritework.

It's nice to witness humanity on here, vulnerability posting saves countless souls, so sincerity is always welcome content IMO
Fuck all the way off with this. The student protesters were physically attacked -- some of them maimed permanently with life-altering injuries -- and relentlessly persecuted, doxxed, and hounded by school administrators, local police, and federal authorities while their attackers remain untouched.
fun fact: the department of homeland security added restrictions last year to its nonprofit security grants program that help synagogues and other jewish institutions hire security that effectively makes it so that liberal jewish organizations can't qualify
Passing it off like the birds are simply too lazy to sing good morning to the sunrise & not all dead across a forcefully uprooted campus quad.
And the kids simply LARPing this better world into being, well they've been mercilessly attacked by the right & centrist coalitions. Because The Streets are The Land, where all the old mythos coalesce.
We feared their power, came down on them hard, & now tut tut their absence.
Here, there be Woke. Or CHOP. Or Euromaidan. Whatevs.
Marveling at the ideaverse made manifest through encampment-style protests, which hold territory to root conceptual potential to the real, via olde military map magic.
Yeaaaaaaa!!!!
This is the best lede I've seen in a tech story in...years? There should be an award just for ledes.

I saw a short-eared owl flying over the Montrose Beach Dunes this morning. It seemed to be making a brief visit as it was flying north up the lakefront.

In your time on this earth you will chance upon works of art. And for some, you'll conclude with desperate rationale that they are the mere capstones of creative lineages unbeknown to you. The alternative explanation—that someone invented them from whole cloth—your ego as an artist will not permit
I know I’m a goddamn broken record, I really do, but Congress had a way to change that, it worked for decades, and the Supreme Court blew it up in the 1980s in a way that was impossible for Congress to fix. papers.ssrn.com/sol3/papers....

The anti Hillary FB posts in 2015 were all fake accounts with lifted photos of real gay families too. This is classic 4chan raid tactics
A screenshot of a post from the X (formerly Twitter) account "Them Before Us." At the top, a high-quality stock photo shows two smiling men sitting on a rug with a young girl and a pug, all looking at a tablet together. Below the image is a bold title in large font: "'I Resent My Gay Parents'" The body of the post features an italicized quote attributed to a Reddit user: "I just want to start this with saying I love my dads so much, they’ve always been good to me and I’m really close with both of them. But I also can’t help this feeling of resentment I’ve felt for so long and I’m not sure it’s anything I can even vocalize to them so it just stews inside of me." The bottom of the post notes that the text was "(Originally published on Reddit)." The post has 16 comments, 37 reposts, 370 likes, and 364K views.
They're going to use the same tactic they used on trans people to go after gay adoption and surrogacy. Pluck anonymous posts from reddit and use it to build a narrative to push bans like they did with trans care and detransitioners.
Nice argument, but I've already depicted you as Padishah Emperor Leto II

Wanna a little schadenfreude? Stonepeak, the private-equity firm that owns the charter airline doing ICE’s longest and cruelest deportation flights, is also heavily invested in energy infrastructure and data centers in the Middle East.
Two tankers were ablaze in an Iraqi port after a hit by suspected Iranian explosive-laden boats. Images verified by Reuters as having been filmed from the shore of the port of Basra showed ships engulfed in orange fireballs that lit up the night sky reut.rs/4bgqMxK
Totally unrealistic story about a young leader taking over a polity after his entire family is blown up and then cutting off a society’s access to a crucial resource
And that's all I can hear now too
Ah, job security for infosec
