A large stuffed folder of files with the title β€œEpstein” is seen with what looks, at first glance, like a red page marker sticking out of the bottom. On closer inspection it is the bottom of a Trump red neck tie. French newspapers once again showing the kind of basic journalistic integrity lacking from most US national newspapers - whose collective negligence has helped ensure a man implicated in the world’s most notorious sex trafficking ring gets to remain President. That the orange pedo felon remains in office is a plague on all their houses. Cunts, one and all.

The cartoon that appeared this week on the front page of France’s most influential national newspaper, Le Monde

Brilliant work by the cartoonist, Guffo.

A Mandaic curse bowl in the Royal Ontario Museum.  It has a spiraling Mandaic text that leads to an encircled x at the center.

This Super Bowl Sunday, I’d like to introduce you all to the magical curse bowls used in Upper Mesopotamia and Syria in late antiquity. Written in Mandaic (as here) or Syriac Aramaic, they trap demons who trespass on a household by sucking them in with spiraling spells to the center of the bowl.

Mote in Gods Eye still holds up I think. (Lack of females = problem. Gender-changing aliens = awesome.)

Lucifers Hammer is a hot racist mess.

Would not recco those or other pre-21st books to newbies.

Go to a bookstore or library for great SciFi age-appropriate reccos

The #BirdoftheDay theme today is #serenity, with the alt theme of #blurred- blurred captures of birds in movement. I’m going with #blurred as it’s my strong suit in bird captures! πŸ˜‚

This is right wing media in a nutshell. Fear sells, especially to ignorant white people. May I live to see the day Fox News goes down in flames.

Two panels: Someone holding a cat up in the air.

Zoom into just the cat being held up, scowling.

Tactical Christmas stocking in Kevlar black with American flag patch

Tactical Christmas stocking in Kevlar black with American flag patch

I have a new niece coming into the world in a couple of months. Decided to do a Christmas stocking.

I really wanted an angel/fairy, but they are hard to find.

Guess what isn't hard to find?

A tactical stocking. For all your ICE-friendly kids (whose parents will shoot/deport Santa)

Yes, the last time this happened was with Dennis Rodman.

Anyone remember him?

This is career suicide.

I get it, she wants pardons for sex abuser family members.

Let her go to jail for them.

Mamdani: "I speak of Renee Good, whose final words to the man who murdered her were, 'I'm not mad at you.' I speak of Alex Pretti who died as he lived, caring for the stranger. ICE shot him bc he did something they could never fathom ... let us offer a new path: one of defiance through compassion."

A common coot standing on the shore of a suburban lake. The foreground is short grass and behind the bird is the blue water of the lake. The best part is their multi-coloured legs: red, orange, yellow, green, blue and grey. I'm hoping to get a clearer shot one day but the ones at our lake rarely come out of the water and when they do, they seem to keep to the long grass and run around like there's no tomorrow. Funny little creatures.

I meant to post this earlier when I saw Alan's (@alan678.bsky.social) alt theme of #Black&White. I've been trying to get a shot of these coots that shows their crazy looking, beautifully coloured dinosaur legs.

Opinion | ICE and Minnesota Have Pushed the U.S. Closer to Autocracy (Gift Article) Measuring America’s slide toward democratic erosion.

The New York Times is tracking Americas slide into autocracy. Currently, they rate it as a 4 out of 10 (1 is America before tRump).

Yeah, it seems a little low (altho there are several areas that are marked as worse)
