Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

“He got Me Tooed” “He got Epsteined” amazing that people have re-invented the police passive for rapists.

cue the raptors

Stakes at the bird feeder just got real: This chesty Cooper hawk & a slimmer juvenile are perching in the yard this week. The little birds are laying low, but my Crows are pissed. Not sure how to read this omen. I'm off to get techo-surveilled. Tumors be gone! please

Fuentes, yesterday: “Our #1 political enemy is women because women constrain everything, every conversation, every man, everything. They have to be imprisoned. They are the ones that are hurting the fertility rate. They're the ones making us sympathetic to poor people, which are also brown people.”
Nick Fuentes: “The number one political enemy in America is women. … They have to be imprisoned.”

Hi friends, Thanks to those who spared a little thought for me on Monday, poised to receive glimpses from the shadowy world of my lymph nodes through positron emission tomography that would allow us to measure changes to my metabolic processes & see if the Cancer has been subdued. But,…

Hi friends, Thanks to those who spared a little thought for me on Monday, poised to receive glimpses from the shadowy world of my lymph nodes through positron emission tomography that would allow us to measure changes to my metabolic processes & see if the Cancer has been subdued. But, friends . . . it was not to be. Lisa called me at 8:06 am to say, hey girl, there's a problem with the camera on the PET machine & we need to get it fixed by a tech & reschedule.

What an honour to speak at an event for the Earth Rover Program last week alongside some incredible people, almost none of whom seem to be on BlueSky except for @georgemonbiot.bsky.social

I spoke on soil health in ancient Mesopotamia, and here are some snippets of what I learned along the way

You can joke about Pam Bondi’s ridiculous unprofessionalism all you want, but I’m deeply shocked by it: She acts as if she fears absolutely no consequences, convinced that there will be no more political power transfers. — This should shake everyone to their core.

Invoking wealthy class solidarity to excuse sex crimes against children is sorta the Epstein Class in a nutshell
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

I tell you what, Ring figured out exactly how to weaponize white people’s empathy in service to a corporately controlled surveillance state.

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me.

Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?

This Super Bowl Sunday, I’d like to introduce you all to the magical curse bowls used in Upper Mesopotamia and Syria in late antiquity. Written in Mandaic (as here) or Syriac Aramaic, they trap demons who trespass on a household by sucking them in with spiraling spells to the center of the bowl.

So I heard we’re posting super bowls. Here’s a Fatimid lusterware bunny. Islamic lusterwares originate in Iraq to emulate the sheen of Chinese porcelain, but the combo with highly animated-looking Fatimid animal motifs is my favorite. He even has a little snack.
