Wow. The animation on One Piece has gotten amazingly good in this most recent arc. Like mind-blowingly good.

It’s a large format printer so it’s not cost effective to jettison it for a new one. So I’ll keep feeding it ink for the time being.

I should be grading, writing my manuscript, hell anything productive. But NOPE. Listening to the jingle jangle of old 10000 maniacs on vinyl. F work. It’s Sunday bitches.

By "local broadcasters" does he mean the megacorporation that owns and wholly controls the content of 39% of those broadcasters? Brendan Carr needs to STFU.

If legacy media is going to bow down to fascists, maybe it really is time to sacrifice it for the greater good. Get all democracy-supporting voices onto independent platforms, and slow down the oligarchy money wheel.

I pray for the United States. The President just declared war on his political adversaries, and nobody (not even the Surpreme Court) will likely try to stop him and his followers from spilling innocent blood. They've been looking for this moment, and now they have it. Fascism is HERE.
