Netiquette tip, gang-

If you're going to tag my joke, "like" my joke as well.
That way I'll know that you're playing along.

If you don't "like" my joke but you tag it or comment on it anyway, I can only assume that you disliked my joke and felt the need to try to improve it.

Dems should bring FGM survivors to the floor & hold press conferences with them to tell their stories and ask why Republicans are putting girls like them at risk to wage a nonsensical war on trans kids’ healthcare

And i very much doubt the Senate will ever even bring this to a vote

Free Mumia
Supporters of Mumia Abu-Jamal are on a 103-mile march ending Tuesday in Frackville, Pennsylvania, where he is imprisoned. The march ends on the same day Abu-Jamal was arrested in 1981 for the murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner, for which he has always maintained his innocence.

Did you know that before Nixon and Reagan, health insurance companies in America were non-profit? Yep, they screamed about "socialized medicine" and gradually shifted the focus of our entire healthcare system from public welfare to... making bucks off illness.

"I need to use A.I. because I'm not good at art."

Aha. Well, the good news is that you're probably good at something else.

You can get someone to pay you to do what you're good at, then use some that money to pay an artist.

the core idea that can radicalize people is so simple:

there is enough.

there is enough food to feed everyone. enough resources to house everyone. money and technology and medicine to stop the suffering of people around the globe.

once you accept that there's only one question:

why don't we?

So, over on The Old Site (which I only use for DMs because you send pictures), it's asking me to create a separate PIN (different from my login password) for secure access to my DMs.

I'm not doing that.

So, I suppose there are some people I just won't contact any more...

I deleted the post about Tom Lyle, my professor and the designer of the Scarlet Spider costume,

It turns out that the article it was in response to, concerning Sara Pichelli, was misleading click bait.

I don't want something that really happened to Prof Lyle be attached to something that didn't.

The is article is very good.

Also, if your, more famous than you, comedy friends are doing shit like Killy Tony and Skankfest, even though they are your buddy who still does your bar show, they’re friends with/take money from facists and instead of kissing their ass you should say, “That’s gross.”

OK, Rick Sloane is no Andy Sidaris, but I firmly believe that he made EXACTLY the movies he wanted to make, with the resources that he had.

He's as much of an auteur as Hitchcock or Kurasawa.

I don't know if folks who didn't grow up in the Christian church grasp how painfully clear the Bible is about treating all humans with dignity and respect. Jesus was like PRETEND THOSE PEOPLE ARE ME IF THAT HELPS.

And yet!
Leviticus 19:33-34
New International Version
33 “‘When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. 34 The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.

We heard from students who feel the squeeze already: rent too high, safety uncertain, cost of living out of control. The working class deserves better than an economy designed to keep them anxious and exhausted. We’re building that better. #CA32

Monday morning Ross finds. $9 each. I had not seen reports of Tele-Vipers showing up, so that was a nice surprise.

These were the 3 Cobras from 1985 that I had as a kid. Never had a Crimson Guard or the first 3 Dreadnoks.
