It probably sounds disingenuous to say that my main creative project is a sleeper banger but I do think that this book was good and mostly pretty slept on so: floatingworldcomics.com/shop/comic-b...

Job occupations, from an 1881 census. Every one of these sounds like something a sorely provoked Captain Haddock would should at someone in times of heavy stress.

The only good thing to come out of all of this is no longer having to ask yourself if that thing you think is a thing is really and truly a thing.

Yes. It is a thing. It is the worst thing. They aren’t even trying to hide it now and if they are they’re doing it badly. Oh my god it is super a thing.

Heidegger, Pound, Webern, Jung all supported the Nazis.

fascism is a moral error, not an intellectual one. being educated isn't a prophylactic.

Most of these people are deeply trained, or at least highly educated, in humanities. Knowing isn’t being.

Anyone who claims that Silicon Valley would be better with more humanities education has to grapple with the fact that Peter Thiel was a philosophy major.

Every democrat should be talking like this. Not the feckless mueller time version of this that we’ve had for years, but actual promises of actual consequences

As long as it goes unpunished we’ll never be free of this

We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.

When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

About a month ago, the Trump administration got rid of the de minimis exemption, whereby packages valued under $800 could slide in without import duties. Now there's a backlog as the government can't process all of this paperwork, leading to UPS just destroying packages
Business Insider headline reads: UPS is telling customers that their packages coming to the US are marked for destruction.

thiel, man, what the fuck are you talking about

He describes the plot of Watchmen, a 1986 graphic novel involving superheroes grappling with moral questions about humanity against the backdrop of impending nuclear war:

The antihero Ozymandias, the antichrist-type figure, is sort of an early-modern person. He believes this will be a timeless and eternal solution – eternal world peace. Moore is sort of a late-modern. In early modernity, you have ideal solutions, ‘perfect’ solutions to calculus. In late modernity, things are sort of probabilistic. And at some point, he asks Dr Manhattan whether the world government is going to last. And he says that ‘nothing lasts forever.’ So you embrace the antichrist and it still doesn’t work.

Thiel later finds biblical meaning in the manga One Piece, discussing how he believes it represents a future where an antichrist-like one-world government has repressed science. He believes that the hero, Monkey D Luffy, represents a Christlike figure.

In One Piece, you are set in a fantasy world, again sort of an alternate earth, but it’s 800 years into the reign of this one-world state. Which, as the story unfolds, gradually gets darker and darker. You sort of realize, in my interpretation, who runs the world and it’s something like the antichrist. There’s Luffy, a pirate who wears a red straw hat, sort of like Christ’s crown of thorns. And then towards the end of the story, transforms into a figure who resembles Christ in Revelation.

Thiel, along with a researcher and writer at Thiel Capital, explored these ideas at greater length in an essay for the religious journal First Things earlier this month.

Not mad busy so I’m going to do some detailed pencil sketches. First one! JOhn Constantine!

Truth check: There is no organization named “Antifa”. No funding, no terrorism, it doesn’t exist. Antifa is short for anti-fascist which is what all patriotic Americans should be. It’s who we were in WWII. So when Trump & his toadies talk about antifa, know that it is lies & nonsense.

After spending 43 years in prison for a crime he didn't commit, evidence hidden by the prosecution reversed his conviction. Rather than finally enjoying freedom, ICE abducted him for deportation

Depraved.

As they say, this seems hypocritical on its face (conservatives also have disabled children!) unless you recognize their project as one of eugenics

There are reports that the *entire* office of special education at the US Dept of Education has been cut. These hardworking folks ensure kids with disabilities get equal access to a quality education.

America’s children deserve better than this.

I’m currently at a pop culture convention with 120k+ attendees where there’s Game of Thrones stuff literally everywhere, and the Marvel TV panel was so overpacked they had to shut down the floor. But I will agree people do not talk about Succession quite as often as when it was airing every week.
Nobody really talks about Succession anymore. Or Game of Thrones. Sort of confirms my thesis that, with rare exceptions, television does not really matter.

Here’s a very silly custom ceramic orchid pot I finished last week that I’m extremely delighted with.
An orchid pot with a comic!

Lady: you’re not acting like a person who has done enough therapy

Flower 1: I’m a freaking mega genius
Flower 2: don’t step on my vibes

Flower 3: no toxic positivity here

anyone else notice that the west took a turn for the worse once the concept of signaling one’s own social virtue became derogatory, almost as if cynically deriding all displays of charity and good will is indicative of a deeply cynical and nihilistic society capable of collaborating in genocide

her advocacy for Palestinians doesn't bother me nearly as much as she is so desperately doing all this as an actual act of transparent virtue signaling, to fill the absence she has in depth of character
