It’s the 1990s. I’m trying to explain many abuses we see at Ruby Ridge and Waco reflect entrenched practices of law enforcement.

It’s the 2000s. I’m trying to explain many abuses we see under the PATRIOT ACT reflect entrenched practices of American law enforcement.

It’s 2025. Guess the fuck what.

Videos verified by The New York Times show the man federal agents shot and killed in Minneapolis on Saturday was holding a phone, not a gun, before the agents took him to the ground and shot him. At least 10 shots appear to have been fired within five seconds. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Last night, the Trump Administration sent a letter suggesting Wisconsin should return our FoodShare payments.

Schumer and the Dems are about to teach Trump the lesson that they’ll cave whenever he abuses power to sufficiently hurt people.

Okay, Ezra is confirming that he's hearing D senators are actually plotting to cave to Trump and end the shutdown WITHOUT any extension of the ACA, just a promise of a vote later down the line.

Call your senators, friends, NOW, and tell them NO DEAL without ACA funding!

Find them here: reps.fyi

Musician playing β€˜Ghostbusters’ outside ICE facility is arrested by agents β€˜Taking us citizens out of state to detain them without charge is a new action from the Feds and should be opposed,’ her band said

A whole soundtrack of cross-genre collaboration is such a wild swing, and such a cool artifact of its time.

Whistling when ICE is about to kidnap someone for no reason is incredibly effective. They know what they are doing is wrong and will scatter in the wind when too many witnesses gather.

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Yo, I just got back from the first real vacation I’ve taken in the five years since we opened Superscript.

We’ve take some time off in the past for visiting weddings, funerals or medical stuff we were dealing with; but not a real vacation.

Never going to wait this long again, if I can help it.

My issues about the Metal Gear games:

Someone needs to explain the concept of β€œShow, don’t tell,” to Kojima.

The gameplay is always secondary to characters narrating things at you, or weird diatribes about movies he likes.

If you're a critic, reviewer, industry pal, or parasocial hater who'd like to be lit incandescent with awe and envy--hit me up for a pdf of Toxic Crusaders #1 which is out next week.

Trump won’t get to heaven if he keeps murdering people on boats | Will Bunch There was no legal or moral justification for the Trump-ordered boat bombing that killed 11 Venezuelans. It could be just the start.

Trump's fears about getting into Heaven didn't stop him from playing God himself and summarily executing 11 people on a boat who may have been drug dealers or might have been innocent migrants

The president wants you to know he can murder with impunity. My column www.inquirer.com/opinion/trum...

Goodreads reviews of musician biographies, a formula:

1. So sad, they died [choose 2: young, alone, tragically, in obscurity, before finishing x project]

2. This artist meant so much to the reviewer’s own creative process

3. 7 paragraphs about the reviewer’s current band or recording project

Photo of a page from Omar El Akkad's ONE DAY EVERYONE WILL ALWAYS HAVE BEEN AGAINST THIS that reads:

The obvious charge of hypocrisy looms over this work, always. Refrain from engaging with one organization because of its ties to a genocide but not the uncountable number of other organizations who do as well? Call for divestment from fossil fuel companies and yet still use electricity? Agitate for a better world in any way and yet continue to exist within it?

The purpose of this kind of accusation is never moral concern. To be accused of speaking too loudly about one injustice but not others by someone who doesn't care about any of them is to be told, simply, to keep quiet.
