after careful study, I believe only people born between 1975 and 1995 should be allowed to use the internet

The cover art for Radiohead’s _Pablo Honey_ with an old-fashioned pic of a toddler surrounded by bright yellow flower petals.

For my wife it was _Pablo Honey_ .

The cover art of the aforementioned album, picturing, from left to right, The Edge, Adam, Bono, and Larry sitting on a bench with their backs against the wall.

Do you remember the last album/CD/cassette you brought home and listened to while reading along with the lyrics in the liner notes before the age of digital downloads? For me it was U2’s _How to Dismantle an Atomic Bomb_ (2004) #music

DSA Members in Good Standing -- 80K and Counting! Join today! dsausa.org/join Line graph showing number of members in good standing rising from 50,000 in October 2024 to 80,000 in September 2025.

For the first time in history, DSA has 80,000 members in good standing! Tens of thousands of new members have joined the last year alone. In the face of rising fascism, a US-backed genocide, and an escalating climate crisis, socialism is the only path forward. 1/3

Nobody cares and nothing will happen but this is classically, paradigmatically fascist language. Comparing opponents to vermin and pests is straight out of the textbook.

A picture of the front of an Airstream travel trailer. The image has been filtered so the reflection of the blue sky is very vivid.

Fortunately we’ll be driving on Saturday so there won’t be activity, but the road’s torn up. But trick’s on them, we got a Trade Wind. #LiveRiveted

So we got a full-hookup spot at a nice RV park in the High Sierras, but they have a strict 7:00 pm check-in deadline when they close the gates. And I’m told there’s major highway construction on the road from Reno leading to delays.

We had wanted to boondock in the national forest on our way back from Reno, but we were thwarted by the impending government shutdown.

And honestly I'm ready for the national divorce they keep pushing. Tell me where to sign.

Hillary Clinton referred to SOME Trump supporters as”deplorable,” and the political media had a meltdown. Trump refers to all Democrats as anti-American radical communists and “the enemy within,” and it’s no big deal. His reckless and dangerous demonization has been fully normalized.

If the big banks are now making these predictions and warnings, and not just our own @edzitron.com (plus hundreds of other smart people), then it can't not be true that it's going to implode at some point.

I downloaded a sample for a book called _The AI Con_. I'm afraid there's a marketing problem because people think it means a conference/convention as opposed to a confidence job.

#TheLostBus is officially Certified Fresh at 85% on the Tomatometer, with 47 reviews: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_lost_bus?cmp=TWRT_Movie_LostBus_CF

The town still feels like a ghost town in many ways. Only 25% of the homes on our street have been rebuilt. There are entire neighborhoods of empty lots. But we are a resilient people, hopeful that the trees we plant will make it feel more like home to others when they grow up in 100 years. /2

Republicans could start wearing swastikas on their arms, and still get angry because you’ve called them Nazis.

I've never seen or heard of anything like this happening, ever in history, where someone dies and people's reactions are being policed.
