Residential School denialism is another layer of the violence targeting Indigenous peoples on Turtle Island.

The Reconciliation Action Group recently wrote to the Calgary Public Library about the harm in supporting racist books.

The comics industry continues to be a fucker, I see.
Miles Morales co-creator Sara Pichelli says she does not get any royalties from the ‘Spider-Verse’ films, Insomniac games, or merch

"I don’t get anything … that's the saddest part of my life"

Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar, Day 6: Gonk cleaner droid! For when you find a Roomba too unobtrusive.

I am sure this will go perfectly smoothly with zero insane things associated with it whatsoever

Yes

Send the water to the artists

Bring them to the drowned city to hear its songs of silence and forgetting

It can be like one of those retreat things

Well at this point in the day my voice can best be described as 'abyssal' which I am sure to do with lingering illness and not all these tinctures and nostrums which I have been imbibing.

On this day in 1969, Fred Hampton was murdered by the FBI and Chicago Police.

Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar, Day 5: Heyyyy, you want me to change the air filter and do the plugs while I’m getting the evil out of your droid?

As long as I got him up in the chair anyway, right?

I made a run out for supplies and when I got home was a bit confused to see absolutely zero birds at any of the feeders.

Then I saw the Cooper's hawk sitting on the fence.

Ah. Hello, murderbird friend.

Huh, turns out having your body match your gender identity has significant mental health benefits.

So weird.

Ok so I've been sick this week (sinus infection) and have missed some class. Normally when this happens my students are (of course) delighted.

Last night I got an email from one of the students in my current events class saying that they hoped we'd still have our final class tomorrow...

I've been watching Stargate while I've been sick this week and I forgot that there's an episode with Armin Shimmerman in it.

Man, with the SGC's eagerness to trade for new technology, Quark would have taken them to the cleaners for a box of magic beans.

Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar, Day 3: It’s Sith-infested C-3P0!

A friend turning homicidally evil because of the demands placed upon them is the real lesson of the holiday season.

I will always hear the Raccoon Dance music from 'The Great Outdoors' when seeing clips of raccoons doing their thing.
Timeline cleanse, please enjoy a minute with the local raccoons.

Raccoon interactions as snow softly falls in the garden.

Frog knocked at Toad’s door. “Toad, wake up,” he cried. “Come out and see how wonderful the winter is!”

“I will not,” said Toad. “I am in my warm bed.”

So I heard via my sister who works in a high school about a kid who they’ve been having trouble getting to read things but picked up my ‘King in Darkness’ and enjoyed it a lot.

Yeah, I’ll take that.

Star Wars Lego Advent Calendar, Day 1: this lil droid mechanic guy has no idea how much danger he is in from cats.

May the Force be with this tiny dude.

What kind of team do you need to assemble for a snail heist, I wonder?

Excellent, clear analysis.

“This is as close to a pure, uncontested case study as one is ever likely to see in modern military operations.”

In recent days, information has surfaced that provides what appears to be a textbook example of an unlawful order that could have—and should have—been refused.
