Abject fucking humiliation for everyone who works at Apple. They could have merely provided a big headline of building products in the U.S., investing in manufacturing, the bullshit that would count as sufficient appeasement. But this performance? Tap dancing as they build concentration camps?

Columbia University agrees to pay more than $220M in deal with Trump to restore federal funding Columbia University has reached a deal with the Trump administration to pay more than $220 million to the federal government.

Nothing will embolden antisemites more than deals like this. One foreign country getting favored and special treatment, as well as protection from criticism, on college campuses at the insistence of the United States government.

β€œDo you believe in fate?” asks Senjuro, The Black Demon, to all those who cross his path. Victim or guide. 

A masterless, mixed-race samurai, Senjuro skulks through the shadows of an evolving feudal Japan, seeking to serve...but the age of the Samurai flickers on the winds of modernization, and any work to be had is less than honorable. That is until Claire, a wealthy British explorer and anthropologist, swings through the tavern doors seeking aid from the man whose reputation precedes him; the one they call The Black Demon. Her family has just been monstrously slain and exsanguinated, and signs point to perpetrators beyond human. Along with Claire and her Sikh companion Jangveer, Senjuro the Black Demon must face hell on earth to deliver their reckoning, and in the process, find the honor he so desperately seeks. 

From the singular mind of Ibrahim Moustafa, who turned time inside out in RETROACTIVE, reimagined The Count of Monte Cristo as a sci-fi epic in COUNT, and put the Western back in Space Western with CYN, comes a thriller that combines worlds have been  long-destined to meet, but will collide for the first time within these pages.

Accompanied by an image of our samurai, Claire, and Jangveer in Sikh armor standing at a portcullis with fang-like spikes, dripping with blood.

Funny how all that protect women’s sports energy went out the window as soon as WNBA players showed up with T-shirts bringing awareness to the lack of financial equity they have in their league.

A Nazi owns Twitter, right wing billionaires own the Wall Street Journal and the LA Times, and CBS is run by a right wing nepo baby who just fired one of the network’s biggest stars for criticizing Donald Trump. Here’s why America has a left-wing media bias problem.

"Superman Arouses Teutonic Anger" reads the headline in the Amarillo Daily News"

The right-wing backlash against #Superman this week got me thinking: Has this happened before?

That led to the discovery of these headline β€” from April 1940, when the official newspaper of the SS took umbrage at the comic book hero and ridiculed its creators.

My how times change ...

MAGA foolios quickly saying a comic book-based film or tv series is too β€œwoke” is the evidence they have absolutely no idea how comics have ever worked, period. Wait til they find out who inspired Magneto and Professor X.

So…bringing back indentured servitude, a form of enslavement? For the crime of being poor? The callous incoherence.

The New York Times will collaborate with Nazi criminals who break into universities in an attempt to undermine democratic candidates, destabilize elections, fuel Islamophobia, and continue the attacks on higher education. They don’t *cover* the crime, they PARTICIPATE in it.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

It is a bribe and the shame of this will outlive them. I’m not naive, but these people are not fit to own or run a media company. They’re so poor, all they have is money.

The guise of β€œantisemitism” is probably the #1 passive-voice-form of Islamophobia.

Your periodic reminder that Arabic, the language of Islam, is a Semitic language.

This seems very likely to be analogous to what gets called social media addiction, I think. Because the interfaces of many of these tools mimic social interfaces, and people are getting not only that initial functionality, but also what feels like interaction or social reward at the same time.

If a Muslim in the US publicly called for a missile strike on a famous celebrity activist onboard a civilian ship or plane, the FBI would be investigating them for terrorism.

But a rich white guy gets to incite violence without any consequences πŸ€·πŸ½β€β™‚οΈπŸ‘‡πŸ½
