We lost comic artist Sal Buscema over the weekend, and despite him being a mightily accomplished 89 at the time of his passing -- he would have turned 90 today -- I'm crushed that we lost him. However, I love that his decades of great work fills my bookshelves and spinner rack, and it always will.

Younger generations “have fallen out of love with Harry Potter because they have fallen out of love with the worldview the series represents,” writes Louise Perry. “Which is to say that young people have fallen out of love with liberalism.”

one of the reasons everybody hates late arrivals from the right or even the center is they're all weepy little idiots who want to be coddled and forgiven and make it everybody else's problem. shut up, figure out how to help fix what you broke, and stop writing thinkpieces

As a gun owner and someone who routinely carries, this is accurate. Bottom line is, they didn't even know he was armed until they tackled him, he didn't touch the gun, they then disarmed him and murdered him.

a not insignificant number of people on Threads seem to believe the snow storm was The Government's attempt to refreeze the Leviathan, the world-eating serpent, which was getting loose (to eat the world, I assume)

There is a difference between people who see the goal as electing Democratic politicians and people who see the goal as trying to stop the violence against our neighbors and friends.
There is, we hope, significant overlap between the two goals.

I need people who were wrong about everything to actually look back and recognize that there was a reason they were wrong and maybe they need to update their understanding of the world.
Otherwise they don't really think they were wrong.
