Seems like the right day to look back at the cover to our Injustice: Year Zero #3.
By the great Julian Tedesco.
It is apparently our fate to live through a time of grief. But it is our choice to live through a time of hope.
Two chameleons talking one is rainbow colored, one is green. Green Iguana: why do you have to make everything about politics? Rainbow Iguana: because they made my existence political
All that is gold does not glitter, not all those who wander are lost; the old that is strong does not wither, deep roots are not reached by the frost.
Aging myself 🥲
Here are my book recommendations for the new year:
Read the books you already bought.
Rupert Murdoch loses battle to control succession to his media empire Media mogul’s three adult children will retain control despite attempt to give his son Lachlan complete control
If the decision holds, it is likely to have a major impact on the future of the rightwing media empire, which includes Fox News, the Wall Street Journal, the Times and the Sun in the UK and the Australian. Murdoch, 93, is more politically aligned with Lachlan, his heir apparent. James, Elisabeth and Prudence are regarded as less conservative and James, in particular, has publicly criticized climate denialism in the media and accused US media of “propagating lies” that unleashed “insidious and uncontrollable forces” after the January 6 insurrection. James resigned from his role as a senior executive at News Corp in 2020. That same year, he and his wife donated $600,000 to Joe Biden’s presidential campaign.
Goddam, this is literally the best thing I have read all day, if not in weeks. Merry Christmas you Pre-Christmas-Eve-Ebenezer-Scrooge-Thinks-You-Should-Maybe-Show-More-Compassion acting motherfucker.

A screenshot from Apple Health is shown, with a bar chart showcasing how the average sleep I got went up from 4 hours and something it six hours and something. Below, a highlighted block, a new trend says: “Higher for 5 weeks”
Who knew Pokémon Sleep would be what saved me.

This report showed up here earlier in the day and I know some folks here were curious if it would hit any of the bigger media sites and how it would be presented. Here's one (gift link):

A drawing called "Art Class" by Edward Steed. Four art students are depicting a skull on top of a wooden stool. The first three students, all wearing berets, are busy painting/focusing on the skull. The fourth student is a tree, also wearing a beret and a look of fierce concentration, and is painting the wooden stool.
For anyone wondering, this is my all-time favourite Edward Steed drawing...
Absolutely, unwaveringly, no.

That’s another £70 🥲

And when that happens, it's as healthy as anything to take a good look at those old times, to reminisce about what was, and what could have been, and then to turn the page.
And say goodbye.
There's much I owe to that silly site, and I'll always cherish what it was, as much as I loathe what it became.
And that's alright. We all change. We all become new versions of ourselves. Sometimes for better. Others for worse.
It was there, yes, and it may remain there, but it felt as if some strange being had usurped the bones of an old friend, and was trying really hard, and then not at all, to convince me it was them.
And it became harder to justify just... being there.
So, it won't.
And then more things happened not worth repeating here, with everything so obviously wrong, that it started to become clearer and clearer - a feeling that had solidified before I even realized it.
I no longer needed Twitter. Nor X.
It's been almost a decade since I felt that sort of vibe from it—years since it felt like the welcoming place I had experienced. And ages since it was the only way I could find to connect with others.
As much as I had needed it in my younger years, I find it hard to come back to it now.
We speak now of being chronically online but we were chronically online back then, tweeting through SMS and Google Talk and whatever new client was out there, joking about the fail whale, and the character limits and everything that felt new and odd and different and exciting and fun.
