I spent a lot of time talking about Joe Sacco in my classes. He was chronicling Palestine in comics form well before anyone else. His work is amazing to look at and if youre not familiar with him you should look him up. Really wishing i could go to this

We recently tested ~ a dozen public statements from a diverse set of Democratic elected officials on the murder of Renee Good and this was the top testing one
AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Loving my replay of Dragon Ball Z: Legacy of Goku II, especially the part where you first get to West City and every stranger you talk to hints at some bizarre, personal side quest that you, a superpowered savior of the galaxy, need to do.

Dragon Ball is one of those things where it’s sort of immediately obvious why it became one of the biggest and most influential things in the world. There was never a moment in Toriyama’s art career where he wasn’t cooking up the coolest shit you’ve ever seen in your life.
How is the OG Dragon Ball already 40 years old? I finally watched all of the original series subbed last year and it’s still one of the greatest to ever do it.

The complete lack of a moral core in someone this rich is terrifying.
NEW: It appears billionaire Bill Ackman has donated $10k to a GoFundMe for Jonathan Ross, the ICE agent who killed Renee Good.
Ackman has reposted the fundraiser but hasn’t posted about his own donation.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

all they gotta do is port Ultimate to Switch 2, add a few more DLC fighters, and give it a proper Subspace Emissary style story mode and I’m golden
I agree with a lot of the Nintendo 2026 predictions that we will see Super Smash Bros. in some form on Switch 2 sooner rather than later.
Whether Sakurai is involved or not, I don't see Nintendo retiring a series in which the last released game is close to 40m units sold.

The past couple days have made it clear that arresting and prosecuting Johnathan Ross isn’t just the right thing to do, it is necessary to prevent future violence by ICE who have interpreted the situation as “we can do that to whoever we want”
A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you."
The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?"
"Learned what?" she asks
Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

Just to get this information out there, in case it helps anyone: I have it on good authority that DHS/ICE has set up an office at St. Paul and Wilshire. It's just beyond the 110 past downtown LA, on the edge of Westlake.
