This is a video of my art show in 2017 at City Center Gallery in Columbus, Ohio. It contains over 150 mechanized ordinary objects, each timed to move once an hour.

Since then I’ve changed my focus to doing philosophy of mind. It’s harder than doing art.

This is yet another manifestation of their Sadism. They film their cruelty. They get off on it.

And Sadism *never* exists in isolation. It's always accompanied by sociopathy-psychopathy (ASPD).

ICE is not only chasing down every random brown person in Chicago, they have a cameraman following them to film this for social media. Cruelty and inhumanity as content.

My concern is that if Congress demands the Epstein files, the doj will turn over some heavily redacted scraps of the actual collection.

I read in a holocaust memoir about how a business that hired Jews prepared for a visit from the gestapo: they painted the walls and hung a portrait of Hitler in every room.

Remember that WaPo endorsed Bondi as qualified and serious. Unfortunately, WaPo is neither.

ATTORNEY GENERAL
Pam Bondi [thumbs up]
Florida's former attorney general is qualified; lawyers who have worked with her report that she is serious.

What the actual fuck??? This is a really scary situation. This family is already facing death threats which is why they are leaving.

Because Dr. Bray is a scholar of anti-fascism.

“Someone” cancelled my family’s flight out of the country at the last second.

We got our boarding passes. We checked our bags. Went through security. Then at our gate our reservation ‘disappeared.’

Are there any republican officials in Portland who could tell Trump the truth? Of course, it may be a suicide mission.

Dolly Parton has been a good person all her life. She does so many kind things for people. Compare that to someone like JK Rowling who wakes up every day and decides to be an absolute asshole.
