New post, mostly for the uninitiated in doing photo research on Mill Creek with the Swekosky collection. Basic stuff. Not impressive. Also only one colorization because I've only ever done one using his photos.

My band CAN'T formed last year, and wrote and recorded an album in a DIY studio in my basement, 99% live.

Instrumental music that is experimental at times, so not for everyone...but maybe for you?

Good read. And, of course,

We banned a guy on the Steam forums for repeatedly saying there were “too many women” in our game

So he flipped his positive review to negative

Still totally worth it

…are way past the point of not taking these “national security” directives seriously, even if trump and Stephen miller don’t get Everything they want ultimately. He got the doj to turn on a dime and start indicting enemies who his former handpicked prosecutor apparently couldn’t build a case for. &…

…I think a lot more of us need to get on board with realizing that this particular White House could write on a napkin in crayon for the justice dept to do something illegal, and the gop elite on Capitol Hill wouldn’t push back and main Justice would be more likely to start doing it than not. We…

the comparative dearth of reporting on NSPM-7 is in part, speaking generously, due I think to how a lot of elite media looks at it like a rant. They are accustomed to things like that being serious legal documents for them to have impact, and in a saner environment, that would be the case. But…

Losing my mind and what look like video game assets but instead were used to justify war crimes and genocide in the real world

if I was someone hired to protect the substantial assets of Wash U medical, I might notice what @jamellebouie.net has been saying about immunity in trump's cabinet, and notice that Miller might be vulnerable to prosecution for a few different things

Coming for the TJ statue in a collage but maybe I'll wait till I start my new job first lol

Horrific reporting from the AP on the Myanmar families watching their kids starve to death from Trump and Musk’s aid cuts apnews.com/article/myan...

I have awoken a free man.

A percy clip from the JeffVanderLou archives...

Absolutely amazing documentary I was lucky to see a showing of tonight at the Hi Pointe. Joining Walter Johnson, Gwen Moore (neither of whom are on bluesky) in the film to provide great historical context to Percy's one of a kind social justice action, is @devintoshea.bsky.social
