(by the inimitable Matt Bors)
A four-panel cartoon by Matt Bors. Panel 1: A woman with medium-length brown hair in a red blouse looks at her phone and says "My GAWD these Trump people are racist. An angry man in a blue button-up shirt with the sleeves rolled up and a red MAGA hat leans in and says "That attitude is what's pushing me to be racist!" Panel 2: The woman looks at the man and says "Say what?" The man gestures to her with both hands and says "Might as well! You say I'm a Nazi so, fine, I'll be a Nazi if that makes you happy." Panel 3: The woman looks dubious. "It... doesn't." The man is holding up a German military uniform coat. "I bought this Waffen SS uniform for Halloween. You'll cry 'offensive' so maybe I'll just wear it every day." Panel 4: The man is shaving his own head with an electric razor while a tattoo artist tattoos a swastika on his upper arm. "I just hate to do this. I feel bullied, really."

I return often to Bertrand Russell's "In Praise of Idleness". harpers.org/archive/1932...
The idea that the poor should have leisure has always been shocking to the rich. In England in the early nineteenth century fifteen hours was the ordinary day’s work for a man; children sometimes did as much, and very commonly did twelve hours a day. When meddlesome busy-bodies suggested that perhaps these hours were rather long, they were told that work kept adults from drink and children from mischief. When I was a child, shortly after urban working men had acquired the vote, certain public holidays were established by law, to the great indignation of the upper classes. I remember hearing an old Duchess say, “What do the poor want with holidays? they ought to work.” People nowadays are less frank, but the sentiment persists, and is the source of much economic confusion.

Just ran across this bot account (I'm pretty sure because I used the word "sane" in a post). FYI.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16?

I likewise have an embarrassment of riches -- and also I'm younger than many people doing this, and I'm reluctant to call *anything* a perfect album -- but:

...I was going to reply self-deprecatingly but I'm distracted by the warning I got. Is this on purpose?

Text in the style of Zohran Mamdani's campaign signs, orange-yellow text in a slab font with small serifs, with a red drop shadow on a blue background, in all caps, with the word "FOR" in a smaller brush-style font and the word "THIS?" in a middle-height sans-serif font: I SHAVED MY BALLS for THIS?

An antique rectal insufflation device, consisting of a bellows made of wood, leather, and brass studs, along with various attachments and tubes, in a wooden case with green lining. Used in the 18th century at resuscitation stations along the Thames, among other places, to attempt to revive victims of drowning by blowing tobacco into their rectums.

The title screen for BATTLEZONE, a 1980 wireframe tank-combat arcade game by Atari. The screen is entirely phosphor green and red on black, and shows a mountain landscape with buildings in the closer ground and a crescent moon over the mountains, with the foreshortened text BATTLE ZONE (in two lines). At the top are a red clock and score indicator, and at the bottom is the copyright text (Atari 1980).

Lazy Saturday morning
A black cat asleep on a green bedsheet, leaning his head against a human's thigh. A black cat lying on a green bedsheet, with pillows and a brown headboard in the background. His yellow-orange eyes are slightly open and he's looking off to the left of the camera. A black cat asleep on a green bedsheet, on top of a white USB cable.

After a stay at the emergency vet where he was diagnosed with a liver shunt, which is causing his seizures and other issues, Bioux got to come home last night. 💜

I'd like to note that this article, which features the pictured paragraphs, runs on a website on which you have to explicitly, via a link hidden at the bottom of the page, tell them not to share or sell your personal information and not to let other companies track you via their site.
When did America get this cruel? The Coldplay public humiliation is a cautionary tale of atrophied American privacy. It’s also an indictment of the tech-induced loss of human discretion and the warping of common decency by the thirst for an attention-getting and sometimes monetizable post.

If you see this post an image you saved because it made you laugh
A series of Tumblr posts. broadacre posts: Snoop Dogg watching the Skateboarding finals with an unidentified man (a photo of Snoop and Tony Hawk at the Olympic Skateboarding finals. Snoop is clapping and Tony is cheering with his fist in the air.) ofgoodstars posts: (a screenshot of lew-basnight's tags: "it's too bad Tony Hawk wasn't there he'd have loved that") The joke is that Tony Hawk, famous for being a professional (and virtuoso) skateboarder, very often posts about encounters with people who know his name but don't recognize his face.

Baby skunks trundling along the fence, occasionally stopping to play with each other
A fairly blurry phone photo of two skunks in a yard, in front of a chain-link fence. Behind the fence the undergrowth is overgrown. In the foreground, to the left is a bird feeder bereft of birds; to the right is part of an evergreen tree.
