My best-setters these days are the new SQINKS and the good old WARES TETRALOGY. I revamped the WARES page today. By the way, does anyone know where the Audible audiobook versions of the four novels went? They were GREAT. www.rudyrucker.com/wares/

The GOP enacted civil service reform.

The GOP will destroy civil service reform.

The GOP is NOT the same party that it was. Keep this in mind when they claim Lincoln as their own

Great financial crisis? You mean when the housing market collapsed, banks went under, our GDP sank, the working class lost trillions in net worth and unemployment soared?

Seems like a repeat of the last time we tried to bully the world with isolationist tariffs.

Not good.

HOPE WALZ: “What world are we f*cking living in? I draw the line at Gus. You people are f*cking disgraceful.”

She says MAGA loyalists are now driving by their home and yelling “R*tard!” at her family and her special needs brother after Trump called GovTimWalz the R word.

without birthright citizenship in the united states, you don't have a democracy and you don't have rule of law.

revoking birthright citizenship gives fascists free rein to purge the country of literally anyone they don't like. it opens the door to atrocities and mass murder. i am not exaggerating.

And I saw it with the kids, who are old enough now to get metaphor and parallels between vampirism, the Klan, and whiteness.

And Michael B. Jordan my god what a pair of performances. Whew. Amazing.

I finally saw Sinners. Easily one of the best films of my lifetime.

So many layers, down to that last lit cigarette. So many woven critiques of white supremacy and Christianity and neo-liberalism and white womanhood and and and

I can’t wait to watch it again.

Surprise, surprise: corrupt organization presents corrupt president with a "peace prize," because said president was sulking about not winning the actual Nobel Peace Prize.

Looks like FIFA is hoping to prove The Beatles wrong and buy love.
Donald Trump awarded inaugural FIFA Peace Prize by Gianni Infantino
FIFA never announced nominees for the new award and has not said how or by whom the winner was chosen.

Not to defend Olivia Nuzzi, who broke every rule in journalism and promoted a charlatan to his current position. But it's incredibly telling that she will lose her job, but RFK Jr. gets to stay in his job despite the reports of his drug use, his affairs and his defenestrating of public health.

This is your occasional reminder that, if you like Neil Gaiman's stuff, but can't bring yourself to like it anymore for justifiable reasons, Tanith Lee is the author he is credibly accused of extensively cribbing from, and her work is on Audible, and AMAZING.

JUST NOW: "This is like Alice in Wonderland", Judge Breyer says when trying to get the DOJ to explain to him why what happened in CA is a "rebellion" justifying the deployment of the National Guard. "Words just mean what you want them to mean?"

I can't stop thinking about the purported drug smugglers being murdered by the US military. The punishment for drug offenses isn't the death penalty. This is just bloodlust and men in suits playing with lives they don't care about. It's truly grotesque and gravely compromises this country.

What we are watching - as U.S. citizens are dragged out of cars and illegal war is waged in the Caribbean - is the corruption of the most sacred power we give the President - the power of violence.

We are no longer a democracy if the regime can use violence without restraint.

Stares at why again couldn’t we expand the courts again? Apparently presidents seem to only have all the power when they’re of the red variety….weird.

With the exception of Sotomayor, it would be great if the pope excommunicated the other Catholics on the Supreme Court. He could toss Vance on the pile while he’s at it.

Yeah this reminds me of a thing I read a while back about Clarence Thomas.

Supposedly he talks like he believes his appointment to the Supreme Court is evidence that racism no longer exists anywhere in the country (hence his willingness to shred anything that helps or protects anyone)

Of course they had it before Twitter.

They had it as the Brooks Brothers Rioters that they were.

So, no. They are, and ever have been, Republican Party political actors.
