This regressive move will literally kill people. It's making kids' liver cancer great again. And it's a sign of more harm to come.

I can't adequately describe my pride to have been Barry's life drawing student in high school while he was engraving the blocks for his Pennyroyal Press classics (Wizard of Oz, Moby-Dick, Through the Looking Glass, Huckleberry Finn, among others) including this one.

The Wicked Witch of the West — Barry Moser, 1985
Engraving
Pass the image is just the black of the witches tape the background behind her is a set of arched lines like the grooves on a record and at the top of the diagonal formed by the cape we have the witches menacing head under a tall pointy hat. Yes, the witch has Nancy Reagan's face.

FBI Deputy Director Dan Bongino now admits that when he peddled bogus conspiracy theories about the pipe-bombs case, he didn’t know what he was talking about.

“I was paid in the past for my opinions,” he said.

I’m not sure if he’s fully thought this through. www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

Why did the FBI deputy director get the pipe-bombs case wrong? He has an answer, but it isn’t a good one.

Holy shit.

Reuters reporting that new admin instructions on visas are if you worked at a platform in trust & safety or content moderation or on fact checking or online safety at an platform you *and your loved ones* are ineligible for H-1B visa.

www.reuters.com/world/us/tru...
The cable, sent to all U.S. missions on December 2, orders U.S. consular officers to review resumes or LinkedIn profiles of H-1B applicants - and family members who would be traveling with them - to see if they have worked in areas that include activities such as misinformation, disinformation, content moderation, fact-checking, compliance and online safety, among others.

A difference between the left & right is we're not all suddenly gonna start loving pennies or hating tiny cars just cuz a guy we hate doesn't

We're not handing it to anyone, mind, but it is nice not being reactionaries and loving & hating what we love & hate no matter who else loves & hates it too

I really can't emphasize enough that if you care about local politics, all you gotta do is show up. Just a regular schmegular person showing up. Literally just show up consistently in person and within a remarkably short amount of time, you will have a shocking amount of influence.

We all know this is a lie, but can we stop valorizing this shit?

Sleeping this little actually really fucks you up and you make bad decisions. It makes you irritable. It fucks up your memory. It reduces your ability to react calmly and rationally.

Little Nemo in Slumberland by Winsor McCay from December 5, 1909.
In this nine panel strip, Nemo and his companions start out frozen on a floating piece of ice. They slowly thaw and see the Aurora Borealis in the distance. Flip leads them into a frozen tunnel & they bicker over whether the are moving away or closer to the North Pole. Eventually they discover a huge palace and at first think they’ve returned to Slumberland, but Nemo says it’s the home of Santa Claus.

A digital illustration on toned paper background of a large, black, and very woolly Krampus, a goat-like demon who goes out to punish the bad children the night before the feast of St. Nicolas, December 6th. This Krampus has very long curving horns coming out nearly horizontal from his head. He has pointed ears, fangs, a long red tongue, and his whole body down to his goat legs is converted in thick black fleece, including a long tail. In his left hand, outstretched forward and over his head, he holds a large two-pronged fork, and in the other hand held at his side, a red whip looping around behind him. A curling black banner above Krampus bears red lettering reading ‘Vielleicht passiert es heute’, German for ‘Maybe it will happen today’.

Faust — Harry Clarke, 1927
A painting whose figures I can't positively identify but in the middle there's a man dressed in green holding up a goblet from which Flames are coming out I think that might be fast and the figure in red lying across the bottom of the image is Mephistopheles but then there is a blonde figure very white on the right giving a gesture with his arms spread wide perhaps to say look at this maybe one of the spirit's conjured up by Mephistopheles there is an enormous book laid open across the back of a monkey they're a couple other monkeys and all sorts of sinister little details in this Mephistophelean scene
