This is a video of my art show in 2017 at City Center Gallery in Columbus, Ohio. It contains over 150 mechanized ordinary objects, each timed to move once an hour.

Since then I’ve changed my focus to doing philosophy of mind. It’s harder than doing art.

🎶Try that in a small town
See how far you make it down the road
Around here, we take care of our own
You cross that line, it won't take long
For you to find out, I recommend you don't
Try that in a small town.🎶

Remember that WaPo endorsed Bondi as qualified and serious. Unfortunately, WaPo is neither.
ATTORNEY GENERAL
Pam Bondi [thumbs up]
Florida's former attorney general is qualified; lawyers who have worked with her report that she is serious.

I knew a woman whose husband was a policeman. She told me stories, chuckling, that made ACAB very clear.

George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.

"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

Judge Xinis notes that the govt's witness wasn't prepared for the testimony she ordered:

"I had very specific directions for what that witness should be prepared to testify about."

She adds that it's getting close to "three strikes, you're out."

The head of the German Gestapo writes of how sadists are both born and made.
Rudolf Diels, the first head of the Gestapo, once observed, "The infliction of physical punishment is not every man's job, and naturally we were only too glad to recruit men who were prepared to show no squeamish- ness at their task. Unfortunately, we knew nothing about the Freudian side of the business, and it was only after a number of instances of unnecessary flogging and mean- ingless cruelty that I tumbled [sic] to the fact that my organization had been attracting all the sadists in Ger- many and Austria without my knowledge for some time past. It had also been attracting unconscious sadists, i.e. men who did not know themselves that they had sadist leanings until they took part in a flogging. And finally it had been actually creating sadists. For it seems that corpo- ral chastisement ultimately arouses sadistic leanings in apparently normal men and women. Freud might explain
it."

A few minutes ago in the House:

- Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week

- House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week
House Press Gallery: During today's pro forma session, the Clerk read a message from the Speaker designating Tuesday, October 14 through Sunday, October 19 as a district work period. Punchbowl's Briana Reilly: House gaveled in and out of its pro forma just now w/o recognizing Rep Elfreth, who was seeking to UC a mil pay bill from Rep Sykes. 

Elfreth told reporters after that House Dems stand “ready and willing to take” up standalone legislation to pay troops.

Maybe MTG’s break with Trump will motivate Kash’s FBI to figure out who planted the pipe bombs on 1/6/21.
