From the Larchives: The Rocky Horus Picture Scroll. One of my favorite works. I had the assistance of an Egyptology PhD student to translate the Time Warp phonetically. Enjoy :)

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.

I'm thinking a winning slogan may be, "Demolish the Epstein Ballroom, restore the East Wing - and make Trump pay for it."

Reminder that Violent J of Insane Clown Posse has the correct response to a lot of the shitty things he said in the early days.

STEREOGUM: People my age, we talk about how we were lucky that we didn’t have social media growing up, and there’s no record of all the dumb shit we said and did. You didn’t have social media, but everything you said and did in those years is on record, and you’ve got to live with it now. That’s tough.

VIOLENT J: And the amount of gay Juggalos out there is really surprising. I think about them doing their research and getting the old records, getting excited about it, and getting their hearts broke or something, you know? I tell my daughter, “For the rest of your life, when your friends ask why your dad said that, say it’s because your dad was a fool. Don’t defend me. Say I was a fool then, but I’m not now.” There’s no excuse. I was going with the flow, and that’s the very thing we preach against — being a sheep. And that’s what I was doing.

I love how there's enough budget for Noem to get private jets, Trump to demolish the East Wing, to build an arch, and for ICE to continue their march of terror...

...but there's not enough to keep SNAP for myself and others in 2 weeks.

Luxuries for the rich but no food for the poor.

Apparently some folks are playing real dumb about skull symbols so let’s play a little game I like to call “Nazi skull or not a Nazi skull”

First up, the Jolly Roger. This is a pirate skull, not a Nazi skull. It means you might get robbed, but prolly not genocided.

My usual practice after having to look too many places to find a rarely-used object is to try to put it away in the very first place it occurred to me to look for it this time around.

General reminder:

It is less important to be able to recognize that someone is a fed or other bad actor infiltrating your movement

Than it is to be able to recognize the bad advice or suggestions that they provide.

There are certainly some major questions regarding the loyalties of Elon's hacker boys. Wasn't this the guy who got fired from a previous job for selling insider information to a competitor?

In retrospect, perhaps trusting all of the government's systems and data to Elon Musk and his band of 20-year-old cybercriminals was not the smartest move.

Meanwhile I have so many Halloween shirts I'm trying to wear them all at least once this month. I may not be able to, so I'm focusing on the ones that live in the storage closet 11 months of the year. (My favorites get worn year-round.) This year they've been worn over biker shorts.

On Dallas we get our first cold snap of the year *sometime* in October and the kids with their thin costumes are just hoping we'll have a warm Halloween. There have been a few years where they had to have winter coats over the top. (Forecast for the month suggests a cold front hitting the 30th.)

I see that yellow solar power bar expanding each year, and I remember how solar panels appeared on roofs across my county after winter storm Uri broke our trust in the state's power grid.

the reframing of ICE and CBP from "dipshit agencies for losers and washouts" to Very Special Boys who get paid when nobody else in the government does must be creating an enormous seething vortex of resentment

Dave Jamieson @jamieson.bsky.social · 6d

Internal DHS memo shows Trump plans to keep paying ICE agents and Border Patrol officers throughout the shutdown, while other feds go without pay.

Even the DHS administrative staff processing the paychecks won't get theirs, employee tells me.

One of the more interesting images from the NTSB report on the Titan submersible implosion.

Imagine you work in data recovery. You've got data off devices dropped from heights, driven over, immersed in water, lightly incinerated... then someone from NTSB rocks up and leaves this with you...

Image of "a large electronic and metallic mass" taken from the NTSB report on the hull failure and implosion of the submersible Titan. The description reads:

"The NTSB laboratory received a large electronic and metallic mass from the United States Coast Guard on November 13, 2023. The NTSB was working on behalf of the USCG. The mass was transported in plastic storage container. The mass weighed approximately 100 lbs. The mass was a compilation of compressed metal, compressed plastic, compressed electronic components and compressed other materials. The mass exhibited signs of thermal damage without typical signatures of having been exposed to open flame. A section of the mass contained polar fleece material."
