My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’

Whenever you see Bari Weiss' name, remember:
PROFESSOR REFAAT ALAREER TOLD US TO HOLD HER ACCOUNTABLE FOR HIS MURDER!
Bari Weiss made his home a target, and they killed Dr. Alareer, his sister, her 3 children, his brother and that brother's son.
Bari Weiss is a proud propagandist for racist murder.

A couple years ago my hobby was looking up all of the psychics on Unsolved Mysteries and almost all of them ended up in prison for fraud. Solved THOSE mysteries!

Following Eurovision’s decision to allow Israel’s participation, Spanish public broadcaster RTVE has withdrawn from the contest. The announcement split the screen between Israel’s performance and scenes of bombardment and starving children in Gaza. #Spain #eurovision #genocide

There are entire vast edifices online built to skim attention and brand recognition away from the actual work of reporting and writing, and it drives me abosolutely fucking nuts
But the people who read articles aloud on YT and TikTok get brand deals and loving praise from their commenters on their “journalism” the people who do the underlying reporting work for companies that increasingly don’t exist and get laid off and are attacked as corrupt/fake news or whatever

It was very naive how many STEM people thought Republicans would stop at the humanities
Heartbreaking. The University of Nebraska will terminate its entire Earth science department.
One of the country's most successful and respected geology & climate programs: gone.
When ideologues & politicians are threatened by the very act of studying climate change, I wonder: who of us is next?

It's over.
Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

Something that has stuck with me for years now is that Ed Brubaker has made more in residuals for the 5 second cameo he had in Captain America: The Winter Soldier than he ever did at Marvel literally creating the comics it’s based on.
Miles Morales co-creator Sara Pichelli says she does not get any royalties from the ‘Spider-Verse’ films, Insomniac games, or merch

Not enough emphasis on the slow and steady acquisition of skills...everything seems to be 'the fastest way to...'.
Just saw a video that purports to teach the fastest way to get better at Zen.
Dude, it's Zen. Being 'in' it is the point. Chop wood, carry water, both before and after enlightenment.

A thing I haven't seen brought up much regarding the big entertainment news of the week:
Box office actually DRIVES views on streaming.
In pretty much every instance, movies that had a theater run do better on streaming.
Here's an article on this phenomenon from last year: archive.ph/JPDhn

One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.

In my opinion comic book artists should get paid a dizzying amount of money for their work. And also they should have assistants and apprenticeships

People are always surprised to learn how little creators actually own in comics, games, etc. Big corporate brands are usually built on a work-for-hire model, meaning creators get paid once and then the *company* owns their ideas forever. This is why independent/creator-owned work is so important.
