Blessed are the frogs, for they keep making authoritarians look incredibly stupid

The power of the people is stronger than the people in power. We reject any and all attempts to strip away our rights and dismantle our democracy.

A comic strip.
A man and a woman in a red 2 door car, the characters are hand drawn, but the car is a photograph that has been cut out.
The man says "heh- look, the artist who drew this comic can't draw cars so he used a photo."

Switching sides now to focus on the woman in the driver's seat (the photo of the car has been flipped, if you finely comb the image you'll notice the steering wheel has changed sides also), the woman says "shut up, pointing stuff like that out isn't clever -'oh that's so meta'- it's not smart, it's lazy and easy. 
It's been done to death. How about not being a coward and trying to say something personal and meaningful."

The car crashes into a ditch, signified by the photo being cut in half jaggedly. The car is now a different model entirely, a soft top convertible, where it was previously it was a hard top.
The man says "ok, well making a 'meta' joke while trying to make it look like you're couching it in criticism is still doing it, but making excuses. Why not enjoy it?
Oh hey, the car's changed."
The woman replies "shut the fuck up."

There is a Mishima quote I like using -- "the special quality of hell is to see everything clearly down to the last detail." It seems to be the only way of really conveying the psychic damage of perceiving the administration and the forces behind it

I just called, got through in about 15 seconds, and told them that I strongly support queer inclusion in their programming and that I will cancel my subscription if they cave.

Oregon, 1939. “Unemployed lumber worker goes with his wife to the bean harvest. Note Social Security nr. tattooed on arm.”
Nr. 535-07-5248 belonged to one Thomas Cave, born July 1912, died in 1980 in Portland, OR. Which would make him 27 years old when this picture was taken.

Goofy/corny things Nolan better keep in The Odyssey:
- Odysseus' dog, Argos, recognizing him and wagging his tail despite 20 years and being in disguise, proving there were good boys even in 7th century BC Greece
- The "Nobody" joke
- Penelope requesting Odysseus to move the bed to test his identity

BREAKING: Our client Mario Guevara, an Emmy-winning journalist detained by ICE in retaliation for livestreaming law enforcement activity, will be deported tomorrow to El Salvador.

Mario and his family are being punished for his reporting. This cruelty is meant to stifle our free press.

friends with large accounts, I'm not going to pester you personally but just generally speaking, I would sure appreciate a signal boost on this thing. We seem to have leveled out, and since this is a one-shot (won't be in bookstores) I'd like to get it out there as much as possible.

…while Rebecca Bligh of the NPA said she was also influenced by the fact that the townhouse project would damage the “iconic look” of Granville Street with its large single-family homes and tall hedges and oak trees.

…while Rebecca Bligh of the NPA said she was also influenced by the fact that the townhouse project would damage the “iconic look” of Granville Street with its large single-family homes and tall hedges and oak trees.

Rebecca Bligh just announced she wants to be Mayor.

She's had some ups and downs as councilor, but I'll always remember her Shaughnessy votes: voting against rental townhomes there (citing the "iconic look" of its hedges) and against OneCity's motion to legalize more housing in Shaughnessy.

you'd be hard-pressed to make a more compelling argument for the way things are now than that we're all trapped in the fitful dream of someone dying in front of a tv. everything that happens involves someone from tv

A digital illustration in the style of old print. It displays three plants in various states of transformation. All are growing vague animal-like bodies: one birdlike, one serpentine, and the other humanoid.

A digital illustration in the style of a woodcut. It depicts the upper half of humanoid figure whose “head” is a flattened organic shape. A serpentine creature delicately wraps around the figure’s arm and into an opening in their face. The figure handles the creature gently.

Rob Shaw: Phantom BC Conservatives cast shadow over Rustad's leadership review Suspicious signups raise questions about integrity of Conservative leadership review as caucus pressure intensifies behind closed doors

Of 2,100 members to sign up suddenly for the BC Conservative Party last month, all had phone numbers that read “1111111111” or “2222222222" and the same email formats, and many used the same credit card. Also, some were dead.

I had no idea that the phrase “Back to the old drawing board” comes from this Peter Arno cartoon from March 1st 1941’s New Yorker. It’s rather splendid to be able to date the birth of what would become part of everyday speech with such precision.
