Ishmael, The Transition will be Live

At the same time the Epstein Files are reinforcing how protected sexual abusers really are, Neil Gaiman is using the nightmarish sexual violence allegations against him to market his next book. His DARVO defense is the first selling point. Rape culture is everywhere and unavoidable.

A theater with the same seats marked.

So about that 7 million.

Someone on the twin cities geeks page has been tracking Melania seating and noticed that every showing has exactly the same seats purchased.

Instead of making bad faith interpretations to spawn quantum bears, we can make good faith interpretations to spawn quantum doggos.

I like Powered by the Apocalypse but I think we need something that speaks to us in the present moment, like Powered by the "Hopepocalypse". Instead of mixed successes, why not little successes? Big success (10+), little success (7-9), miss (3-6) and mistakes into miracles (2-).

One side of my family is Irish and the other side didn't have a choice in the matter.

Dems must pass a $100 billion funding expansion to train ICE to comply with the training requirements.

Alt National Park Service: And here we go again. Some federal employees are starting to receive furlough notices as lawmakers in Washington weigh how to end the partial government shutdown that began over the weekend.

Karoun Demirjian, NYT: Some federal workers have begun to receive furlough notices, as Washington waits to see if Congress will end a partial government shutdown that began over the weekend.

Nothing meets the current moment like conservatives trying to counterprogram the Superbowl by headlining a guy who wrote an entire song about how much he loves statutory rape.

ATTN: great things are again happening in China, ice level 🇨🇳

Modern British academia unable to comprehend something their great grandparents used to carve up entire continents.

Not to be mean, but I would hope a British political scientist focused on the ethnic politics of Africa would be aware of how often this happens.

Congrats to Scott Adams, coming up on THREE WHOLE WEEKS of Staying The Hell Away From Black People, knew you could do it, king

Dark Woke is here

It isn't healthy to look for reasons to be angry.

Thrilled to announce that Slay the Princess has officially surpassed one million units sold!

When we started work on it, we couldn't imagine a visual novel would be able to hit such a milestone let alone being backed by critical acclaim. And yet, here we are. We couldn't have done this without you.

Lolita was not a great and tragic love story. It’s supposed to be a stomach-twisting story of destructive obsession and self-delusion, told in prose so pretty it the cognitive dissonance heightens your feelings of unease. You’re forced into following only Humbert’s account, kept in his control.

awful AI shitslop image of a train in a sort of Scottish looking city that's blue and has a logo on the side formed of a lightning bolt in a thick circle

that same logo in its original blue and red colours, which happens to be the literal flag of the British Union of Fascists

Can't now find it but there's a classic old tweet which said something like "Every time we're on the verge of achieving class consciousness in America a CIA sleeper agent activates and, their eyes glowing red, they just tweet out "John Brown was a white saviour"" and I think about it often.

i truly hate how much we are living in a bad script

two pic layout. in the first a man says “go to hell” into a phone. in the second he hangs up to reveal it’s a smiling garfield phone (a landline, for the youths).

This story is just crushing. I had no idea.
It infuriates me even more that on the island, they have to learn the American things, yet they are not citizens. I know there are many logical people in Alaska. Please let them be on the jury.
