Also, congratulations everyone who made something this year. A comic, a song, a film, a novel, a painting, a poem, a short story, a sculpture, crochet, embroidery, whatever it is. In this era of slop and theft, if you *make* something you are a shining jewel and I am so grateful for you.

also I have a piece in here about how Hegseth can’t even roll out a new Gemini powered military AI platform without fucking up and making numerous military and DoD personnel suspecting that it was phishing or illegitimate, reporting it for that, and not getting a straight answer for hours
In today’s ‘First Draft,’ House Democrats start to throw their weight around, Donald Trump inches ever closer to war with Venezuela, and more movement in the Epstein files saga.

Fucking incredible dystopian shit, comparing super rich people risking millions if not billions of lives just to make more money to people that risked their life actually building incredible things that would then make millions of dollars for super rich people.

Orcas have started targeting commercial ship control systems, like rudders, to disrupt or break them. Eyewitnesses feel unnerved by the precision of these attacks in how the orcas ignore peripherals and know exactly what to do. Well, duh. Sophisticated intelligence as good or better than our own.
