It’s important to flood social media and news channels with news about how ICE lies, so that potential jurors see it.

People keep waiting for "the thing," some kind of bright line that makes it all clear. There's already blood in the water. Clarity isn't coming anytime soon.

The ever-fanstastic @aquariumdrunkard.com have rescued the mp3s of the '1981' box set! 21 years on from when I completed the set, and 17 years since I started Musicophilia to put '1981' into the (lost, not lost) blogosphere.

A white softcover book called 'Planet Robotica' with a jaunty elderly robot (made of Lego) on its cover. The physical Lego build of his elderly robot nemesis stands on the cover, looking disapproving, sipping his morning hot motoroil.

I did a softcover print run of my book of Lego robots, 'Planet Robotica'. They turned out really nicely! If you'd like a copy, they're $26 each plus shipping, just let me know.

Here's a PDF version if you'd like to stay minimalist:

The Venn diagram between "AI personhood defenders" and "racists who believe most of humanity should be culled" is a closed circle (that somehow smells like a gas leak).

MORE: Immergut issued a stark warning that the efforts by Trump to make a bad-faith justification to call up the guard risked plunging the country into a form of unconstitutional military rule.

As ever, the only good Nazi is a dead Nazi, and anyone who takes offense at that fact is telling on themselves.

COMMENTS ON A SONG YOU MIGHT HEAR AT A GROCERY STORE: Numerology, death threats, accusations of gaslighting, 1000-word dissertations.

COMMENTS ON A GUY PLAYING AN INDUSTRIAL SHREDDER WITH A VIOLIN BOW: Hell yeah this rules.

Pretty sure when I was 14, I had a Columbia House account... and thanks to me, so did every member of my family including dog and cat (unbeknownst to them)...

Hope you dig it! Thanks for listening : )

The top of a 1920s deco tower viewed between leaves of street trees against a bright blue sky.

A sun-dappled row of pre-War buildings, a brick sidewalk with two-top tables, cute boutique shop signs, street trees, flowers hung from the steet lights

Beautiful pre-War buildings on a narrow urban street, with large flower baskets hanging from old-timey street lamps, filled with green street trees.

I'm sad to report that Providence, RI has fallen, destroyed by the Antifas and the Enemy Withins, and only smoldering wreckage remains. Patriots, stay in your suburbs and hold your SUVs tight, and pray that the artists, vegans, workers, and bus riders do not come to your beauteous cul-du-sacs.

I want to emphasize again how good this collection is. Fourteen full albums of great library and soundtrack music from all over the place, free download.

Thanks for shining a light on the ways @govdanmckee.bsky.social has screwed RIPTA and Rhode Islanders who don't feel entitled to using thousands of privately-owned steel and glass to get everywhere.

Such a perfect example of the false promises of microtransit, which state leaders in RI have been pushing as the "right-sizing" to RIPTA's fixed route. It's bullshit. Just watch.

Literally watching this now and came to share it as an example of how much pain @govdanmckee.bsky.social has caused by screwing RIPTA and transit riders.

@thecure.com should sue the Trump-hijacked DHS to stop using their music in this fucked up piece of "Hey racist Boomers and Gen X'ers, we'll make it the 80s but without those pesky Black/Latino people existing" fascist propaganda...

Thanks for sharing, Dave! Library can be such a great surprise for people.

These scenes of war might be hard for some people to take. But it's reality, and you owe it to yourself to look at what's REALLY going on there.

Ha! Who was it, and what BS did the say? Apparently someone I'd already blocked, or they blocked me, too.

So many Hatch Act violations. So little media interest.

“These are rules that are going to cause an enormous amount of hardship for millions of people,” said Will Fischer at the Center on Budget and Policy Priorities. “It’s going to cause people to become homeless, kids to be pulled out of their schools.”
