good piece with an incidental insanely brutal takedown of klein
The media has spent the last few months trying to make sense out of nonsense, attempting to conjure motive, manifesto, and meaning out of the dumbest shit scrawled onto bullets. These were sad attempts to impose meaning on an increasingly incoherent world by a literati that has not yet accepted its irrelevance in a postliterate society. But the most humiliating display of literate obliviousness in the face of the total collapse of meaning, however, was Ezra Klein's bizarre eulogy to Charlie Kirk. The now-infamous column ("Charlie Kirk Was Practicing Politics the Right Way") can best be understood as an expression of class solidarity. Klein, I would argue, sees both himself and Kirk as being Debate Guys, wordcels who engage in the marketplace of ideas and let speech sort itself out into political action. Kirk did not commit violence, not because he abhorred it, but because committing violence was someone else's job. Last year, he called for using whips against migrants, saying, "Of course you should be able to use whips against foreigners that are coming into your country. Why is that controversial?" In early June of this year, as the president deployed troops to Los Angeles, Kirk publicly advocated for invoking the Insurrection Act of 1807 to crush the immigration protests. And in August, he called for "federalizing" the district of Columbia, saying, "Roll in the tanks, bring in the military." With his close relationship to the commander in chief of the United States of America, Charlie Kirk was no mere talker, idea-peddler, or purveyor of discourse. He built an empire on legitimizing violence and harvesting the enthusiasm and glee around it. Even before his death became a pretext to enact violence on American cities, he had already substantively shaped history. Charlie Kirk was a part of the real world in a way that Ezra Klein will never be.

It's implied by Fox's dialogue that he has a crush on Wolf, but Wolf might just see him as his hunting partner.

It's hard to tell because the show is lost media, but at least one episode shows they do spend time together when they're not hunting.

Quote from Helen Henley's introduction to her novel Enter With Trumpets (1989). Henley wrote an advice column for Atomage and Dressing for Pleasure. Photo of Henley from DfP No 13.
White woman in her 50s with short blonde hair, wearing a high collared rubber double breasted coat and standing in a summer field. Text: Fetishism, involving materials such as rubber and leather, exists; so does bondage and restriction. They are not inventions of overworked imaginations or disordered minds. A bizarre manifestation of human sexual behavior, certainly; but disabling and harmful, certainly not. Guilt and sublimation, added to fetishism, may combine to produce a crippling condition in need of treatment, but, in my investigation, fetishism and bondage seems to be different only in form and application from many of the common and obsessive pastimes such as football and angling that are given common credence. Indeed, many of those socially acceptable hobbies offer very little opportunity for involvement of the female partner, whereas with fetishism this is not only possible but desirable.]

Vance is the white nationalist bill Clinton and we should in fact worry.
althistorian.bsky.social The Alternate Historian @althistorian.bsky.social · 11d
I'm still concerned that a lot of older Trump voters I talked to find Vance "smart" and still wave away his radical beliefs. I admit he doesn't have Trump's cult of personality and he isn't helping him by still trolling a third term, but we should be careful not to assume he'll be an easy opponent.

maybe I’m being too optimistic given, well, everything

but I just don’t think this guy running an explicit white nationalist campaign is going to have anywhere near the juice his boss does

he is a repellent man with a repellent message and people are tired of it all

You know it's 🎄Christmas time🎄 when "East European" immigrants get blamed for eating carps/swans/geese in the Daily Mail. A tradition that stretches to the early 2000s. Below article from 2025 (yesterday) and 2003.
Geese are 'stolen from park to be cooked and eaten on Christmas Day' On July 4, the Sun devoted its front page to a story headlined "Swan Bake", which alleged that gangs of Eastern European asylum seekers were killing and eating swans from ponds and lakes in London. Unidentified people were cited as witnesses to this phenomenon. Next day the Sun ran a follow-up story headlined "Now they're after our fish", another unsubstantiated rumour without a shred of proof reported as fact.

wow, it's Shonisaurus, the giant Triassic ichthyosaur!
fantastical drawing of Shonisaurus, an ichthyosaur (ancient marine reptile visually similar to a dolphin, but with four flippers). The Shonisaurus is covered in colored squares like a quilt, in varying tones of purple, blue, and orange. there is a speech bubble with the following in black handwritten text: "It doesn't matter to the companies whether any of their new AI tools help you. AI tools are not meant to help you. AI tools are meant to attract investors. Remember who fights and who capitulates."

Happy Winter Solstice!

Beer can, pinhole camera photos of the Summer to Winter Solstice (2024) and the Winter to Summer Solstice (2025).

You never know quite what you're going to get with these photos, set the beer can pointing towards the sun at hopefully the correct angle and wait 6 months!
A pinhole camera photo taken from Summer to Winter Solstice. It's a bit blurry as the aperture was made with a tiny needle and no focus mechanism. There are yellow to green lines across the photo, that's the Sun moving across the sky over the course of a day. The top line is from the Summer Solstice, the bottom line from the Winter Solstice. Cloudy days don't have any lines or broken lines as the Sun was obscured by clouds. There are some trees on the left, right and in the background. A pinhole camera photo, a 6 month exposure from Summer to Winter solstice. There are trees on the right side and background. A house with two cars in the drive are visible almost in the center of the photo. The lines are made from the Sun moving across the sky with the bottom line being the Winter Solstice and the top line the Summer solstice. On cloudy days the lines are broken or not visible as the sun was obscured by clouds. The lines show some reflections from a tree trunk. The lines are mostly a white color with some hints of blue, green and yellow in places. Some of the colors could be from rain or snow staining the paper I was using. A solargram/pinhold camera photo taken from the Winter Solstice of 2024 (21 Dec) to Summer Solstice of 2025 (20 June). It's a 6 month long exposure taken with a beer can pinhole camera, it shows the sun's movement across the sky during that time period, each day the Sun scribes a line on the paper in the pinhole camera. The bottom line is Dec 21 2024 and the top line is 20 June 2025. This kind of photo makes the movement of the Sun during the day into visible trails on the paper in the camera. There is a long orange-yellow arc going across the paper showing the whole 6 months. There is a shadow of my tree on the image, the tree blossomed during the exposure. Shades of blue and pink are on the paper too. There is a black kind of semi circle at the top of the image, that's where the water was disintegrating the top part of the paper.

As a Catholic it’s very bizarre to me to see the children (Evangelical, non-denom MAGA Christian Nationalists) yearn for relics, martyrs, and pilgrimage yet find it abhorrent when Catholics do it with our relics, martyrs, and pilgrims. The house is glass.
