Tomato Like A Bus ,

Just saying that it contradicts this:

Norman Rockwell’s freedom of speech painting depicting a man bravely standing up in a crowded room to say something

Pedophiles on X this week:

Prince Andrew shitting himself.

Bannon theorizing China going to Venezuela for oil as a foothold for Argentina as well, then gets "brilliant brilliant brilliant" advice from Epstein on how to spin for Trump at an Economist event.

Bannon in 2018 proposing that Chicago go under martial law to damage Obama and how he didn't return after presidency, just hung out with "a bunch of whites... trying to be them"

Steve Bannon continues to anonymously but obviously re-surface in the slimiest ways too. So confident he was going to overthrow Xi! A century of American hegemony!

Paul Krassner, Al Seckel, Lawrence Krauss... just the weirdest D-team of figures in this guy's email list

Date: Saturday, September 24 2016 01:26 PM From: jeffrey E. To: Michael Wolff <____________________________ >; you can also add, fresh politcal juice by stating that Clinton was never on the island. I never met Al gore. no diiners on the island with either , no matter how much detail has been in the press. in fact boies Gores attny, knows that byt continues to represent the fabricator, the girl who claimed prince andrew had sex with her also accused stephen hawking and marvin minsky, . ? ehud barak on a gulfstream with five secruity guards looking the other way. ? all ludcrous.

Lying to Wolff about Stephen Hawking, I guess:

What might cure this malaise, I ask myself
Cure? fuck off.
Go back into the Epstein emails and his nasty, illegible brain and read another 500 bits of correspondence about 'girls'
Including this one about Bill Gates:

HARD DRIVE NOW.

Whatever percentage of these fascists believed that there would still be elections in '28 are getting convinced right now by their colleagues that they have no choice but to shoot for total disintegration of constitutional govt if they're going to survive.

New stage of anti-biotic found? It'll be locked on a healthcare tier few can afford.
Dead mom AI on your phone? Flesh interrogated as a privileged social burden.
Torture instruments of a bored empire exposed? Media will now litigate morality.
Nothing new, but nothing good. And we're out of cat food.

It's no surprise to feel bleak on any given day in this muddle, but what is it about today that feels especially rotted?

not seeing anything, but it was a bit early for him.

This week's winners are FKA Twigs and Claire rousay. WHEW.

Facts also Franklin is cussing them out 😂

Almost my EP of the year. Just marvelous.

YouTube video by FIS - Topic DMT Usher

If you're going to make me think of how FIS did this with more spirit and mystery in a single EP 13 years ago... I dunno, guy.

YouTube video by Love Collective II Carrier - Rhythm Immortal (Full Album)

Listening to the Carrier album again, though it's unlikely to survive in the library. No weight, hook, flight, grind, or swing, but all mood: "ego death in situations of standing or sitting: winter."

It's good, I'm not against single-minded releases, but they should be more elusive.

Hm, ok. There's an EP swimming in a 15-year retrospective of previous tracks, but completely recalibrated. So far the net effect is apologizing for its bullish sound design from before, sanding off its sharp edges for a more mature balance of sounds. Dunno how I feel about that, but it's interesting

An Egyptrixx album? Out of nowhere? in 2025??

We know that default drag race keeps the better performing queen in a moderately close lip sync, but maybe they decided that Bonnie wasn't winning and they want her back for an all-stars. Also to see if Catrin can snag a win since they like her. Trying for an "iconic" season roster?

Tweet from daniel s (@self.agency), with a screenshot of the suspended page of Patton Oswald, commenting “patton oswalt has been suspended from bluesky for saying that megyn kelly should be fed to a woodchipper for justifying the sexual abuse of minors”

Tweet from daniel s (@self.agency), with a screenshot of the Dept of War’s bsky acct saying “to all narco-terrorists who threaten our homeland: if you keep trafficking deadly drugs–we will kill you” And commenting “this is a far more explicit death threat from people with the actual means to carry it out”

Just the bleakest level of dumb from @safety.bsky.app

Not just fridges, cars too. Always a subterranean desire to reduce “smart-“ to “couldn’t connect online if it tried”
It might never happen because it takes life back to a level of inconvenience I don’t think anyone is prepared for, but it might be cool to memorize your top 8s phone numbers again.

i don't think the U.S. political class ever had any intention of taking climate shit seriously. it was a delaying tactic until they felt like they could get away with simply ignoring it. our entire government is made of people who just want to loot the public coffers and run.

I remember the moment I heard “This Old Heart of Mine”

Black and white illustration of a ghoulish, skeletal face, with one eye looking downwards and saying “HOWDY”

Literally the dream. Caught last week looking at pictures of 90s rangers and tacomas like “damn”
