If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

COMIC: My Dearest Mary...
PANEL 1: In sepia tones, OSO the fawn pug, sits next to a fire with a pot hanging over it. He wears a civil-war era military hat, and holds a pencil in his paw as he writes on a piece of paper. What he’s writing: My dearest Mary: I pray that you and the children are well. PANEL 2: In the same sepia tones, closer in on OSO, he continues to write. What he’s writing: Things here are dire. We have made camp outside Gettysburg, but winter bites deep. The rations are gone…I haven’t eaten in days. THE ENDS DRAWS NEAR. PANEL 3: In regular colors, GRAMP, an older bald man with a grey mustache, holds a dog bowl full of food with one hand, the other hand on his hip as he looks annoyed. OSO stands at his feet, eyes wide, ears down, mouth open. GRAMP: Oh for goodness sake. Dinner is five minutes late. OSO: BAROOOOO —— Want 5,000 more comics like this?

Alas! It is the 257th anniversary of the death of Philip Stanhope, described by one historian as “merely a worthy, kindly, but dim diplomatic official at Dresden – not, as his father (pictured) once dreamed, a Secretary of State”. Why, then, do we need to know about him? Well... 🧵

It’s 6 November, and you know what that means, don’t you? YES, THAT’S RIGHT. It’s the 156th anniversary of the death of Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s pet wombat
Dante Gabriel Rossetti’s pen and ink drawing of himself mourning his wombat, showing a man kneeling over the corpse of a rotund wombat, its toes turned up. They are in front of tomb bearing the date 6th November 1869, and a palm tree

Tuntematon Tulevaisuus kirja on saanut kiitosta. Kirjoitustyyliä on kuvattu helposti soljuvaksi, mutta sisältö myös haastaa lukijaa - äänikirja saanut 4.8/5 ja 4.4/5 eri palveluissa.

Ajattelin nosta osia kirjan keskusteluista tässä. 🧵jatkuu joka päivä seuraavat pari viikkoa 1/x
