If you haven’t heard about Bruce Campbell’s latest film, it’s likely because he’s been distributing it himself. The Evil Dead star wrote, directed, and stars in Ernie & Emma, a thoughtful, heartwarming story about a man on a quest through grief who finds more than a few laughs along the way. 1/2
“Profoundly incurious dipshit with a shallow familiarity with leftism and mediocre political instincts” is where I’m increasingly landing on Platner, and it’s an assessment that’s largely consistent with his supporters’ defenses.
Going to guess that child psychologists can generally tell the difference between gender orientation and sexual preference, even if Benjamin Ryan can't. Because they studied it, to get their credentials, unlike Ben.
Today I told fascists to fuck off by teaching teenagers basic zinemaking at the local library
Dexter's Laboratory just got added to Tubi, if you need it. tubitv.com/series/30001...
A teak folding chair in the sun.
Refinishing a teak patio set $100 from Facebook, hubby had to pick it up in Vancouver for his sister. Very weathered and gray to start but a little sanding and teak oil really helped brighten it up.
On the west coast and there’s a soccer bar right behind my house and during Premier League season i’m woken up by a dozen people screaming at the top of their lungs outside my bedroom window at 7am.
Came upon a what I assumed was a failed TV pilot called Strange New World that was almost worth it just to watch John Saxon kick the shit out of Reb Brown a couple times.

He could spend all of his money and the rest of his life fixing all the public education districts he fucked up with his bullshit "ideas" at the Gates Foundation.

“The story is not just about Frank and his charisma and his incredible body of work. It’s about the way people uphold his memory and still talk about him 112 years after his death.”

We could swap our Mayor Wilson for Seattle's. Big upgrade.
Look out, NYC, Portland has its own Brooklyn Bridge now! City council passed the naming resolution for what we used to call the Holgate railyard overpass. It's not a sexy bridge, but at least it has a name now. (Thanks @pnwpolicyangel.bsky.social for getting funding for some signage)
At least we don't have to suffer through Doc Emrick's commentary anymore. I remember one game where the only things he had to say about any of the players was who the players were married to or dating, including a long discussion of one of their wedding rings.
My linocut print on black Japanese washi paper in a vertical gradient of copper to green ink of ground, grass and ground pangolin. Every scale of the pangolin is printed on different Japanese washi papers in various colours and patterns.
The 3rd Saturday in February is World Pangolin Day to draw attention to the plight of the world’s most trafficked animals, these magnificent scaly mammals. 🧪🐡 There 8 species of #pangolin in Africa and Asia, all endangered, threatened by poachers for their meat & scales (used in traditional 🧵
The last time they tried to cull sea lions on the Columbia, it made no difference. Same with the cormorants. The dams are the problem, no matter how many predators are killed, the fish still can't get upstream.
Are you saying that the Chelalis are supporting MGP's scheme to slaughter sea lions? Where is her post bragging about getting their support?
Joe Kent has a cushy no-work fantasy job "fighting terrorism" for Trump, I don't think he's going to run again.
Those fishermen sure look pretty white. Did you even bother to talk with the tribes? Pretty sure they have fishing rights on that river, too.
There was one that was struggling to make it in the Brooklyn neighborhood for years, but it got started as a crunchy parenting group and they actively despised neighborhood people who would just walk into their little club. Neighbors finally took it over, folded in months. Sigh.
Oregon Experience just put an excellent new episode about the murder of Mulugeta Seraw and the anti-racist organizing that sprang up in response. youtu.be/R8wz-i0QLPU?...
The last sentence.
People who fall for scams can’t be mad at themselves while their self-image is wrapped up in the scam, *even as the scam is falling apart*, because that means admitting a mistake and fallibility. So they HAVE to be mad at those who successfully avoided getting scammed.
Even though I haven't had to do color swatch matching in a while, still got the knack for hue, but always a little off on the saturation. Fun little game if you're rusty on color work.
NEW: One year ago, we caught a peek of MAGA authoritarianism when men roughly dragged a woman named Teresa out of an Idaho town hall.
This is the story behind that viral video and the radicalization of the community where it happened.

Three giant isopods surround a bag of Doritos. Commenter questions what are those? Replies deliberately only discuss the Doritos bag.
Might be the first meme I ever saved and still the best.
I wish Hoopla had a better interface. They have a lot of good stuff but you have to know it's there or you'll never find it.
Excited to see that Ravenous is available on Hoopla right now! It's been hard to come by on streaming services and been wanting to see it again, too.
Yeah, I didn’t hear until Democracy Now came on, I guess the bluesky demographic is too young and white.
RIP Jesse Jackson. The only presidential candidate I've ever seen live at a campaign event, he spoke at my high school in Denver in 1989. Inspirational speaker.
