Seattle folks: Don't miss this!
We have TWO DAYS LEFT and we still have... quite a few items... so it's time to do one final extremely unhinged OMEGASALE. All comics are 30% off, with 50% off anything that's not a standalone, compendium, or volume 1. Single issues are $1 each and BOGO. (1/?)

Y'all who keep lecturing protesters to "not give them an excuse" need to pause for a minute. Imagine yourself telling a DV victim, "Be sure not to mouth off or make any mistakes so he won't hit you. Don't give him an excuse! It's what he wants!" That's what you fools sound like.

Somewhere in America there’s a trans woman living in a windmill saying, “The fuck he just say about me???”

This man bring so much Light to my heart. This is the best of us.
It was a beautiful Sunday afternoon in the Bronx and Harlem at our paper shredding events — we cleared out old junk mail, built community, danced, took family portraits and enjoyed frozen treats (it still felt a lot like summer). Thanks to everyone who joined.

I'm still making my way through this, but see immediately how brilliant it is. It's broadly applicable to any set of disparate knowledge systems.

Embassy and kinship work at the borders is key if we're going to navigate beyond this toxic divisiveness that's been engineered. And we must.

Me: Doc, I have this new symptom ...

Doc: You need to do this exercise ...

Me: Sweetheart, I've been doing that for years. That ain't it.

PSA: If I call you "sweetheart", especially if I barely know you, and doubly so if you outrank me, you're on dangerously thin ice.

Results are validating: the brains of long COVID sufferers are physically different. They exhibit signs of inflammation, biochemical imbalances, & a diminished capacity to adapt to stress—all of which may be key to understanding their cognitive difficulties.

Scientists Finally Reveal Biological Basis of Long COVID Brain Fog.

Patients with brain fog may have disrupted AMPA receptor (AMPAR) expression—key molecules for memory and learning. Imaging of Long COVID patients showed elevated AMPAR density tied to more severe cognitive impairment.

I don't understand how people who claim to be #CollapseAware and/or are deeply involved with caring for the earth and the environment are using AI for frivolous things, like generating whimsical photos and summaries of articles assigned as required reading for a course. Can anyone explain that?

I can't imagine how offended those highly decorated generals & admirals are right now, given how offended I get over far less, & their egos are way bigger than mine. They risk everything if they say a word to the wrong person, too. I have to wonder if that's the whole point.

Nepal isn't having it!
Protestors in Nepal overthrew the government in less than 48 hours due to corruption. They refused a curfew, spread protests across all cities, fought police in roaming street battles, burnt down politicians' houses, stole military weapons, stormed the parliament & burnt it, forced the PM to resign.

This post makes me inordinately happy.
Ok its ‘feed it off an aux, speak, grunt no strength, the ladder start to clatter with fear fight down height, wire in a fire representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site’.

Wow, when PC Fucking Magazine is reporting on guarding against invasive border searches and seizures in the US, you know it's bad!

Read it and weep. Literally. 😢

Brilliant! Brava!

In my next incarnation, I hope I have the good sense to insist on music lessons as a child on an instrument I actually like, and stick with it. What I wouldn't give to be an accomplished musician!

Well the slope from “let the elderly and disabled die of COVID” to “let’s trash all the rest of our ethics, morals and laws” was basically a short walk on a flat path wasn’t it?

Oh, gawd! I can't stop laughing! 🤣🤣🤣

Can't believe it took them that long to catch Sandwich Guy, and he was standing so close when he threw it.

Still, he made it too easy. That white boy clearly didn't have a mom who taught him how to evade police while running like my kids did, and it shows.
In honor of sandwich guy getting out of his legal pickle, here is the original video synced with Freedom - George Michael 1990.

Oooh, another book to add to my reading list.

#CollapseAware
Outgrowing Modernity is a seriously Good book.

It reminds me of Joanna Macy’s 1983 Despair and Personal Power in the Nuclear Age.

Both are books that you “work with & work out” over the course of your life by living differently.

Neither are suitable for unserious people.
🌍 A truth that could change the face of the world if we truly understood it.

Grateful to Vanessa Machado de Oliveira (Outgrowing Modernity) for giving words to what so many of us feel.
