Kicking off three days of Allhallowtide’s spookiness and spirit appreciation with a whole gaggle of reading, watching, and lookin’ inspiration in my latest post. Would love to hear what you’d add to the list. #halloween #horror #filmsky

Yeah I’ve seen some maga posts about how it’s an inherited/shadow/whatever economy. Never mind that the elites seem to be doing better than ever.
I’m so sorry! Your work there put em on the legit political writing map.
Please don’t tell me y’all paid someone to write about representation in the middle of what the rest of us can clearly see is an oligarchical kleptocratic clusterf*ck led by a mad pseudo king of reality television with his internet celebrity minions, WWE people, & n*zi church buddies at his side.
Would be so nice to just blow all those fuses.
Yes!! We don’t want dumb jobs for jobs sake. All the people who’ve told me they wouldn’t know what to do if they didn’t have a job can have ‘em. If we were really cool - we’d let AI do jobs and create programs for people to make/explore wildly innovative and creative stuff for the country/world.

The Dem’s ideas for revenge speak volumes. Better ideas: turn it into a community services center and food pantry. Host workshops for small biz. Legal aide. Or a center where all those red hats are repurposed into backpacks and winter coats for children.

Just discovered the #30DayMapChallenge hashtag and my cartophilia is flaring up.
For those who aren't deep in the geography nerd-verse, November is the #30DayMapChallenge where map makers challenge themselves to make one map every day according to a list of themes. If you need inspiration, Rhode Island has plenty!
Keep an eye out for good maps this month!
Day 1 - Points
Rhode Island Lighthouses

Most of my maps will be about Rhode Island. A good way for me to learn about a place (and find datasets) is to try to create a map of a thing.

Because patriarchy is built on hierarchy and enforced by physical and psychological violence.

Police departments paid out $2.3 billion in settlements in one year.

We're not overspending feeding people. We're overspending beating people.

It's pretty cool that the US economy is propped up entirely by continuing work on software thats only real functional uses are eroding consensus reality, spreading often politically motivated misinformation, and for various scams like impersonating your grandma and saying she's been kidnapped
My niece’s interpretation of “The Curse of Frankenstein”.

Happy 🎃 Halloween!

The greater good is served when human rights aren't up for debate.
Been thinking about Hallie Rubenhold's book "The Five: The Untold Lives of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper" lately. Maybe because it's spooky season, but most likely because it's a history of how society is quick to discard women they've classified as sex workers. #ReleaseTheEpstienFiles
The tree line-up outside 7-11 was looking rather handsome this evening.

I can’t think of a better time to contemplate death and beauty.
In this post: How fall 2025 is giving big mood; How beauty can save us; Victorian spiritualism; Susan Fenimore Cooper's autumnal observations; Why it isn't accurate to say history repeats itself.

Love early animation! More recent but 70s animation is bonkers too. That’s also when all the acid-heads were putting on puppet shows for kids. I rewatched “Witches Night Out” recently and it’s fabulously weird.
