The funny thing about the invention of the wheel is the guy who invented it died penniless. It wasn't until much much later that pennies were invented

How is this repeatedly made into a policy issue - by *all* parties - when the blunt fact of the matter is that grown adults who are obliged to pay for their own education, and relentlessly pursued to repay their loans, should be able to study whatever the fuck they want.

"They Saw Everything" (il visto tutto) 1962 Dir. Giancarlo Giardino
Not my favourite Giardino but tense like nothing else I've seen. The dub leaves a little to be desired but jnfortunately the original is long out of print
probably my favourite poster I've painted so far

Today is a day when arts degrees are worthless, but the product of those degrees is so valuable it would kill an entire industry if they were made to pay for it.
Nick Clegg says asking artists for use permission would ‘kill’ the AI industry

The thing about the current horrors is that they're not new. For years the US government has separated families via deportations, murdered foreign civilians, and violently suppressed civil liberties. The problem is that now they're all social media addicted freaks so they post about it.

The reason the Right are so invested in the myth that the arts have no value isn’t because the arts don’t generate wealth (they do); it’s that studying the arts teaches people to imagine better ways of judging the value of an idea than by counting how much money it makes…

I’m telling you: ridicule works. These guys are supposed to intimidate the citizenry and it’s very hard to do that when a guy in a frog suit is just staring you down and daring you to do something that makes it look like you’re afraid of a cartoon

On June 2, 1991, flight 283 from LA to Newark lost all contact with ATC. The aircraft never landed, and no remains were found.
Ever since, rumors of a "ghost plane" have spread among aviation enthusiasts, who claim to have seen flight 283 attempting to land at airports across the world.

Your reminder that they cannot arrest millions of people no matter how hard they try. They lack the infrastructure, they lack the personnel, and the economy would straight-up collapse
They are going to try to scare us by making examples out of a few people, and our job is to not fall for it

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

Classic Castle surrealism. From its acid trip crimson soaked bloodbath, to Price and his fear feeding parasite it's absurd schlock brilliance. 1959.

I'm genuinely disturbed.
I'm living in a country that is passionate about defending the 'free speech' of those who would incite violence against minorities, but equally passionate about arresting people for calling a genocide a genocide.
