The Nausicaä print that kicked off my monthly riso print thing, before I had the foresight to add a border. Maybe I’ll have to revisit it for a future month, but in the mean time I’ve got something else more fall-themed in the works for this month instead

national socialists aren’t socialists and communists are their sworn enemies ffs
Bernie’s democratic socialism is still compatible with liberal democracy. Trump’s national socialism is not. Thank you for your attention to this matter! www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-is-t...

Pretty cool! Companies that install geothermal heat pumps and/or thermal storage can get (and transfer) 30-50% tax credits, provided they retain ownership of the equipment and get paid via leases or other third-party ownership models. Quick thread with a few more details. 1/
The loophole that could give clean heat a boost under Trump
The OBBBA killed tax credits for heat pumps, but kept them for commercially leased geothermal and thermal storage systems — a path to keep home clean heat…

For some reason, I'm suddenly recalling how all of MAGA has been claiming that Biden's pardons don't count because they were done by "autopen" meaning he didn't really know about them or approve them. Not sure why I'm suddenly thinking about that, but it just sprang to mind.
O'DONNELL: Why did you pardon Changpeng Zhao?

TRUMP: Are you ready? I don't know who he is

O'DONNELL: His crypto exchange Binance helped facilitate a $2b purchase of World Liberty Financial's stablecoin. And they you pardoned him.

TRUMP: Here's the thing -- I know nothing about it

Calling Trump a “Commie” while also saying he has a “national socialist” project is…something 🤨

“Supreme Court won't stop Trump's tariffs. Deal with it, officials say…’U.S. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said he expects the Supreme Court to uphold the IEEPA-based tariffs. But if it strikes down the tariffs…the administration will simply switch to other tariff authorities’,” ~ Reuters

it's time for journos to start asking Johnson meta questions

"Speaker, on 5 occasions last week you said 'I haven't seen it' when asked about news events w/big implications for public policy. Do you ever read the news, and do you agree it's problematic for the Speaker to be so woefully uninformed?"

can someone make a supercut of johnson saying he doesn't know anything
Raju: Last week, you were very critical of Biden, you said he didn’t even know who was pardoning. On 60 minutes, Trump admitted not knowing he pardoned a crypto billionaire guilty of money laundering. Is that also concerning?

Johnson: I don’t know anything about it.

We live in an absurd world where Russia, the aggressor, talks about providing security guarantees to Ukraine, the victim of its aggression. Now, Belarus (the country from which Ukraine was attacked by Russia) says it's ready to deploy peacekeepers to Ukraine.

even old new york
was once new amsterdam
why they changed it i can’t say
but we should go back to the previous way
Fun bit of history:

New York is called New York because when the English seized it from the Dutch, who called it New Amsterdaam, they named it after the Duke of York.

Andy fucked up SO BAD Chuck may have to completely memory-hole the dukedom that is the city's namesake 😳
Prince Andrew Sullied His Former Title, Duke of York, So Much That the 600-Year-Old Dukedom Will Likely “Disappear,” Says Royal Expert
"He's splattered mud all over a noble 600-year-old title and ruined it for future generations."

Correction: it's not that they cannot believe *it*, it's that they *cannot* believe it. It's their noblesse oblige to pretend to not care until it becomes their acquired second nature: they have to pretend to not know to feel into the group of those who does not know by class habitus.

Presidential pardons must go in the trash, if not the entire executive branch at this point.
