Reviewers and commenters call Terra Nil “peaceful” and “hopeful.“ Nothing could be farther from how I feel.
Hope y’all enjoy this casual little video about hope(??) in the apocalypse.

Great video! It’s always a treat when Pillar analyzes a Benoit Blanc whodunnit, especially one as thematically rich as Wake Up Dead Man.
Ok, here’s the video you all knew I was going to make:

This is the compromise? This is the bipartisanship? This is the civility? This is the return to normalcy? This is the price of winning? WHAT WILL YOU HAVE WON
Here are the 28 Dem Senators who voted to advance the first federal ban on trans athletes & a federal definition of sex that would make trans & intersex people non-existent: Angela Alsobrooks (MD), Tammy Baldwin (WI), Richard Blumenthal (CT), Lisa Blunt Rochester (DE), Chris Coons (DE), ->
By a vote of 76-23, S 1071 passes the motion to proceed to the motion to concur. Won't know who voted for this until the roll call is uploaded, but safe to say it passed with the support of at least 24 members of the Democratic caucus. (Rand Paul probably voted nay and Steve Daines has been absent).

my favorite youtube discovery scenario is when I like someone's video for being a thoughtful essay and then end up following them for being openly anti-ai, anti-maga and anti-genocide ✨

This was obvious from the moment it was announced, but still worth mentioning. The genocide never ended.
The diplomatic "achievement" of the ceasefire was to recalibrate the tempo of the genocide sufficiently to get it off the front pages and the news bulletins, thus alleviating the political pressure on Israel's western accomplices.

Israel still committing genocide in Gaza, Amnesty International says
The NGO’s chief says last month’s ceasefire ‘risks creating a dangerous illusion that life in Gaza is returning to normal’
