If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Dark Tower made me so freaking angry at the end. And of course.

Pratchett and Pullman, of fucking course.

The books of Earthsea. Sweet jesus yes. Sucked me right in.

Oh, come on. Race, gender, citizenship, and whatever the ownership class can use to keep us divided and distracted is, and always has been, the issue. Money and power.

Our new Substack article is live!

And it asks a very serious question...

WNBPA players are fighting for a new contract so they get an equitable share of the profits THEY create.

Pay them what you owe them, @wnba.com Commissioner Cathy Engelbert and @nba.com Commissioner Silver! America’s unions have our players’ backs.

Revenue sharing remains a wedge issue in CBA talks. Silver said the focus should be on salary increases.

New: a $60 mod to Meta's Ray-Ban glasses disables the privacy LED light. This is supposed to light when people are filming with the glasses. We bought the mod, verified it works. Now you can never be sure whether someone wearing Meta Ray-Bans is filming you or not

Dear art thieves: apparently this semi-retired stagehand owns Picassos. I don't even have an alarm system.

Close readers might spot the patronism.

Im not being patronizing by stating a fact. Children can read books that are not very good.
