Someone finally tied it all together.

This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

I too will not be voting for Janet Mills

One of the few cases where it's actually an honor just to be nominated. I wonder how Hasan's taking the fact that his uncle made it this year instead of him

Arlo Guthree vindicated

I'm sorry to report that, even though the instructions said to pour in hot water, Grunbo has put his ramen noodles in the microwave

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture

I made a mod that replaces cliffracers with Thomas the Tank Engine. I am incapable of learning lessons whenever it involves corporations, because I fundamentally do not view toy company CEOs or media CEOs as people.

Damm newbies
I've been mad for ages

Kids, you haven't touched your tongue sandwiches. You need something to drink? We've got Clamato, Mr. Pibb, and soy milk.

This short (The Big Snooze, 1946) is probably one of the ten best cartoons ever made. Take it from me: a freak of nature.

Is it pronounced Ужн? If so, it might be worth it

They'd might as well offer a trillion, given the track record on actually paying out on these things

Net Agreement With Socialism:

18-24: +31%
25-44: +22%
45-64: -3%
65+: -30%

Democrats: +28%
Republicans: -6%
Independents: -17%

For the US, 38% confidence in the police is really encouraging

Just act casual.

Oh, so it's COOKED cooked

Still not sure if that's good or bad right now

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "AI doesn't care if you live or die."

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "talk to humans"

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "Fuck this!"

Sign for a "Friend" ad defaced with graffiti reading "you don't have to accept this future."

Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced.

Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

A black-and-white photograph of a Black U.S.soldier, identified as James Wilson, PFC, shaking hands with a soldier of the Chinese People's Volunteers. They are inside what appears to be a prisoner-of-war camp. Bold text at the bottom reads: "Negro Soldiers! THERE'S A LETTER FOR YOU INSIDE. READ IT!"

A leaflet titled"Negro Soldiers:" with text that reads: "Did you ever stop to think why you should be in Korea, fighting other colored people, while lynchings, murders and insults pile up against the Negro people at home? They tell you you are defending freedom here. What kind of freedom?" It then lists specific cases of racial violence against Black people in the United States, including Morris Scott, Samuel Ellis, Willie Carlisle, Sam Jones, Willie McGee, and Harry T. Moore. The text concludes: "They tell you'll come nearer to equality by fighting in the Korean war. They always do that when the time comes to face the guns. It's a lie!"

Continuation of the leaflet. The text states: "The only place you can fight for equality is at home." It provides facts about racial discrimination in the U.S. military, citing the court-martial of Lieutenant Leon Gilbert, disproportionate court-martials of Negro soldiers, and a quote from Thurgood Marshall about the army's Jim-Crow policy. It also notes the lack of Black political representation in Congress, asking "So much for your rights at home."

Continuation of the leaflet. The text details racial disparities in officer commissions across the U.S. Army, Navy, and Marine Corps, quoting from President Truman's own Civil Rights Committee. It also alleges discrimination in the rotation system for soldiers returning home. The text argues that the war in Korea and domestic discrimination are connected, quoting a petition to the UN: "White supremacy at home makes for colored massacres abroad."

During the Korean War, the Korean People's Army and the Chinese People's Volunteers produced powerful propaganda leaflets aimed at Black American soldiers. They connected the imperialist war abroad to the racist violence at home in the US.
