We often don't think about how long the transition from hunter-gatherer life to what we now call "civilization" was. The invention of writing is closer to 2026 than it is to the beginning of the Agricultural Revolution.

A friend of mine just told me, “The right pretends at Puritanism but is secretly perverted. The left plays at perversion but is secretly puritanical.” Too fucking real, man.

It’s insane that the far-right is trying to rehabilitate the Crusades because they were objectively the most pathetic campaigns in the history of warfare. The first was a cannibalistic rampage, the second was a miserable failure, the third was a war crime, and the fourth didn’t even get there.

The Internet Loves These “Gay Sheep.” The Real Story Is Much Darker.
A much-hyped fashion show with wool from “gay rams” obscures the brutal reality of an industry that exploits sheep sexuality at every turn.

I’ve watched Piers Morgan run roughshod over vegans, human rights activists, and leftists a hundred times. But he just let Nick Fuentes spew poison on his platform for 2 hours, his only response to bad-faith Nazi propaganda flaccid hand-wringing and apologies for interrupting.

Hate to be that guy, and like, the more people learn about King Philip’s War the better, but PBS Origins just blatantly ripped me off.
The title, several of the turns of phrase in the video… their researchers clearly just watched some of my videos and just repeated stuff that I’ve said.

The Makah whaling controversy drags on.
Last summer NOAA granted the tribe an exemption from anti-whaling laws. At the time it was regarded as the final word on the matter. But now concerns about gray whales’ declining populations have stymied the hunts once again. www.kuow.org/stories/maka...

The Native Americans fighting Pennywise flashback in It: Welcome to Derry depicts 17th century colonialism in Maine with Oregon Trail era covered wagons. How the fuck do you not include spooky Puritan shit in your Stephen King homage? Lazy-ass writing and production design

I’m cautiously optimistic, but will only be truly excited if Stephen Sommers returns to direct.

Mary Shelley's Frankenstein is not about "playing God" – it's a timeless parable about human responsibility grappling with environmentalism, feminism, liberation politics, sexuality, birth, death, and family. Let's rediscover the true radicalism of this masterpiece of horror.
