The spirit of halloween makes her way home... see you next year sweet spooky lady.

Today I listened to Brian Eno talking about AI on a podcast… this timeline is insane.

It is about to be "Soup Season" and i am pretty excited about it.

Shit is going to hit the fan in Portland… they DO NOT PLAY.

This is a sign of weakness. They are taking extreme measures to control the narrative and stifle descent. Things are not looking good for them by every metric... They will continue to lie through their teeth about what is happening in the country but it is not working.

I think the silver lining to the current hostility towards the media and journalism is that it is going to force a separation. Corporations have no business at the editorial desk or in a creative directors chair.

Dont beat yourself up... Your work is well worth the wait. I have really enjoyed your books and use your tarot cards regularly. You are doing a great job.

Kwaidan?

This is fucking ridiculous.

I’m really looking forward to watching this… your review include any spoilers?

This really is the troll administration… it’s hard to know what to think.

This book only makes sense if you read it by a body of water. #Paterson

Did he get up and leave!?

Was just about to say… that’s Alain Delon. I have watched WAY too many French movies.

We need local journalism now more than ever before… as the impacts of the changes being forced upon all of us become reality… we need it to be covered in a real way and not a broad and abstract one.

Zombie movie… except instead of a virus, fungus or alien element causing the outbreak and chaos… it’s brain rot caused by social media and rampant misinformation.

I can’t believe how absolutely ignorant, petty and cruel this is.

But do you know who just got a NEW government contract for $38,858,978 literally today?

SpaceX — owned by Elon Musk

Severance is so good… I am blown away by how deep it is.

Dog hair = character

"If you died in childbirth, you were honoured just as much as a young man who died in war"

A coincidence the book went to reprint right after this author interview aired? I think not. It's now back in print, fascinating and wide-ranging, get a flavour of it here: open.spotify.com/episode/5eHk...

Shout out to all of the artists who will continue to speak truth to power in the years ahead and somehow find the ability to create beauty we can all enjoy in dark times.

Please don’t forget to pay attention to your mental health. There is a lot of stressful stuff happening… but you are good for nothing if you are broken.

Tesla Paid Zero Federal Income Tax in 2024, Despite $2.3 Billion in Income This brings Tesla’s average tax rate over the past three years to 0.4 percent.

Tesla earned $2.3 billion in the United States in 2024.

You'd think it paid a lot in taxes, right?

Well it paid precisely $0 in federal income taxes last year.

You want waste and fraud? Look at what some big corporations and the rich are getting away with.

It’s simple. Trump and Musk both knew that if Dems stayed in power, they were going to jail or loosing A LOT of money and power… so they made a deal. Musk bought trump a victory and Trump let Musk do whatever he wanted to the government and regulatory system.Trump is fine with ruling over ashes.

I am determined to write or paint this weekend and not fall into this despair hole that is my phone.
