The fabric carries the official Harris Tweed trademark, which means it was fully made in the Outer Hebrides of Scotland. The fleece was sourced from local sheep; the fibers carded, spun, and dyed in the area; and the fabric handwoven in one of the small shacks by local weavers.

To be fair, everybody has been a total asshole at SOME point in their life so you aren’t the only one :D

A blog post from the Kung Fu Monkey blog in 2007 about an exploit, or loophole in governmental norms: "The exploit is shame. Our representatives -- and to a great degree we as a culture -- are completely buffaloed by shamelessness. You reveal a man's corrupt, or lying, or incompetent, and what does he do? He resigns. He attempts to escape attention, often to aid in his escape of legal pursuit. Public shame has up to now been the silver bullet of American political life. But people who are willing to just do the wrong thing and wait you out, to be publicly guilty ... dammmnnnn. We are faced with utterly shameless men. Cheney and the rest are looking our representatives right in the eye and saying "You don't have the balls to take down a government. You don't have the sheer testicular fortitude to call us lying sonuvabitches when we lie, to stop us from kicking the rule of law and the Constitution in the ass. You just don't. What's beyond that abyss -- what that would do to our government and our identity as a nation -- terrifies you too much. So get the fuck out of our way."

Because Cheney's the center of this old blog post, a reminder that some of us saw that the destruction of shame would be a problem twenty years ago, we're not reaping a single thing now that oh so dignified, *respectable* Republicans did not sow decades ago.

From 2007.

Dick Cheney in his Batcave.

Dick Cheney in his "undisclosed location" during the early years of the War on Terror, directing the search for Weapons of Mass Destruction. From 2003.

If you donate $30+ to a food pantry, I will Photoshop a photo of your pet so that it looks like they're doing something seasonal, and you can use it for holiday cards. (It will be obviously but not badly photoshopped.)

Once upon a Time, my friend Marc andreyko & I created an Eisner winning graphic novel about law Man Elliott Ness in Cleveland suddenly faced with one of the first serial killers in America: The torso killer. Tons of meticulous research. Yes, I drew this. @darkhorse.com been on my mind a bunch

YouTube video by Whims of Resistance Howard The Duck comic reading by Tom

When the Howard comic strip was launched a year later, one of the Cleveland tv stations staged dramatic readings after the 11pm news! I never missed it.

It’s not moonshine its “unaged bourbon” it’s not being a hobo with seasonal employment it’s “van life” that’s not a trailer it’s a “tiny home” it’s not piecework it’s the “gig economy” - culture is the thin wedge to make survival strategies of the poor sound like fun fads

Cover of Life mag in 1970, showing John Cleary gasping for breath.

John Cleary, shot in the chest by National Guardsmen on May 4, has passed away at age 74.

He was a 19-year-old architecture student in 1970 when he was shot and critically wounded.

The Trump Administration is an assembly of koolaid drinking trolls who can’t see how insane they are. Problem is the press corps actively covers this up and Democrats are too cowardly to beat on it like a drum.

This plays like the dreams i had when i was delirious with a high fever

12:01 ÷73 + r/AskAnthropology •• What is the oldest lullaby or nursery rhyme that... 11 upvotes • 1 comment As far as the earliest we know of, it's another Babylonian tablet, about 4000 years old and most often known as Little Baby in the Dark House. We don't have the music for it, but again, the BBC article has a good go at describing some commonalities of the music that tends to accompany lullabies, so that might inspire you. The rough translation for that Babylonian lullaby, by the way, is: Little Baby in the dark house You have seen the sun rise Why are you crying? Why are you screaming? You have disturbed the house god. 'Who has disturbed me?' says the house god. 'It is the baby who has disturbed you! 'Who scared me?' says the house god. 'The baby has disturbed you, the baby has scared you, making noises like a drunkard who cannot sit still on his stool. He has disturbed your sleep! 'Call the baby now, says the house god. • 4 Reply A & Vote & Join the conversation

A post from "Chubblenauts and other examples of Arctic Excellence". It is a photo of baby Moo Deng yelling while a keeper is picking her up. The post text reads: UNHAND ME at ONCE, I am GRUNTILLICUS, I saw the WORLD BORN in the FIRES of the GODFORGE, I cast the DUST which became YOUR BREATH, I would like a SMALL APPLE

Context for the usual display name. I have laughed at this every time I've seen it for the last year.
