In every relationship there is one person, and only one, who understands how to sort a duvet cover.

An emergency instruction sign. A man in a red shirt wearing a red hard hat stands in front of flames. He's walking away from the flames with an extremely resigned, dare I say *depressed* expression on his face. Bright yellow block caps are above his head, instructing this depressed, dare I say *suicidal* individual, extolling him: "DO NOT PANIC".

when Nickelodeon bought the building next door and expanded the studio in Burbank, they placed quotes from former creators around the campus.

This one from my all time favorite Nick show The Adventures of Pete and Pete is like the blueprint I strive for in my own writing.

If I were running a dystopian surveillance company centered on "urban blight", I wouldn't have my photo taken in front of Dallas City Hall, which was the headquarters of OCP in the Robocop films. Dead or alive, irony is coming with me.

So Philip Glass just joined TikTok. He only has like 4 posts and they’re simply him in what I assume is his living room playing the piano. First comment on one I saw was β€œyour piano is too close to the fireplace, you’ll dry it out” and if that’s not the internet in a nutshell I don’t know what is.

They did a terrible job with Savage, but the following seasons got delightfully ridiculous in a comic book way. I watched one or maybe two Hong Kong seasons. But I loved all the crossovers as the CWverse progressed, even when I wasn’t following individual shows

I fell off when the flashbacks became increasingly implausible. But by then we had Legends of Tomorrow which was my favorite CWverse show, hands down.

There’s nothing more Green Arrow than being a cheap knockoff of Batman. He has an β€œArrow Cave” and a kid sidekick dressed in bright red. And an β€œArrow Car”!

In short: I do really think the US regime has stuck their dick in the toaster again.

Similarly, Will is a big stumbling block for both sides. Iran is in the throes of a popular uprising. The US government is at a nadir of popularity, and has *more* democratic feedback on its operations than Iran. While the US has MORE force to bring to bear in total, it also has more friction.

Are there limits to what Pete "Logistics are for **gs" Hegseth is willing to do for ego or armageddon? I don't think so. The limiting factor to the US ability to deliver force is clearly friction: turns out, people who are all about "warfighters" and not "logistics" don't know how to prosecute a war

For the Iranian state, this is an existential threat. There is no limit to the force they'd be willing to spend, because if they don't, they simply cease to be. For the US government the political object seems to be… ego? There's bold talk about Armageddon, too. Either way, this seems boundless too.

I've been thinking a lot about the Von Clausewitzian trinity, mostly because of this essay on protest movements and insurgencies: acoup.blog/2026/02/13/c...

A key element of the ability to wage war is the political object: what are you trying to accomplish? And we're in a weird spot with this one!

When someone says β€žScientists do not want you to knowβ€œ you can dismiss everything from there on. Scientists want you to know. They are desperate that you know. They can’t shut up about what they found out and want you to know.

Trump wants Mamdani’s respect more than he wants the respect of his own sons.

I mean, republicans generally like Nazis, so you’d think they’d be on the side of the Nazi Tattoo Guy.

I cannot state it more clearly: I fully intend all the implied contempt for his voters. My contempt for them is boundless.
