IDEA FOR A PERIOD DETECTIVE SERIES: "Bertrand Russell Investigates"

Top logician and fearless humanist Bertrand Russell solves crimes with his powers of deduction in the 1920s. Every episode ends with him chuckling about what he'll say about it in his next postcard to Wittgenstein.

So, if I'm following all this correctly, a bunch of internet shitposters who spent years screaming "don't tread on me" and warning about federal agents stomping out people's rights... have been hired as ICE agents to go around breaking into people's homes, kidnapping & shooting them

If there’s a better obituary for an evil cartoonist than an A.I. generated version of his character that fucks up the defining detail of its design, I can’t think of it. No notes. 👨🏻‍🍳 💋

The last good thing Scott Adams can do for the world is to serve as a cautionary tale to everyone who’s sense of self rests on being one of the smart ones.

I don’t mean that unkindly. It’s genuinely tragic in a way I can appreciate more knowing he has no more bombs to drop.

“we’ve found that this pollution causes risks to human health” is the only reason EPA even makes rules in the first place!

A few months ago, ICE hired me

I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable

And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"

You’ve Heard About Who ICE Is Recruiting. The Truth Is Far Worse. I’m the Proof.
What happens when you do minimal screening before hiring agents, arming them, and sending them into the streets? We're all finding out.

Precedent: years and years ago a scam was exposed in iirc Chicago: someone was buying day-old donuts at scale, cheaply, repackaging them, and selling them as high-priced low fat donuts. They were clearly inferior for the customer (they were a day or two stale) so people believed they were low fat.

a while ago i had the idea for a scam product, it's basically like a glade plugin with an lcd screen on it, and it would claim to remove power generated by sources you don't like (wind, solar, etc.), but all it would really do is just increment a counter displayed on the screen

The 49ers got their current name in 2017 as a cross-promotion for BLADE RUNNER 2049. Before that, they were known as the San Francisco Gold Rush, The San Francisco Streetcars, the San Francisco Californians, and - for a single season in 1978 - the San Francisco Treat.

The house in Grant Wood’s iconic “American Gothic” - Dibble House - still stands in Eldon, Iowa.

Wood painted a sketch of the house, then returned to his home in Cedar Rapids to complete the painting, using his sister Nan Wood Graham and his dentist Dr. Byron McKeeby as models.

I have a plan to save movie theaters and it’s gonna work:

Double-price for phone-friendly showings. You can have your phone out the entire time, make calls, talk, bring young active children without fear of being judged.

Half-price for silent showings. Phone use gets you banned for six months.
