A lot of people being angry about Trump making the White House look ugly which is wild to me because I can’t imagine caring about or respecting the White House enough to give a shit about its aesthetics. We’re a bad country and we deserve to have an ugly, tacky building represent us. It’s funny!

Reading Moby Dick is like a 4D experience because, just like Ishmael, I now can’t shut the fuck up about whales and whaling

Thinking about how Herman Melville didn’t know about whale songs and I’m so upset about this that I need to dig him up and make him write a new chapter

I regret to inform you all that I’m rereading moby dick and it continues to be maybe the best book to ever come out of America? In any case a truly life-altering book and I’m incapable of being normal about how good it is

An important piece of my lore: when I was 14 my friends and I stole George W Bush lawn signs from people’s yards and burned them, which I was embarrassed by when I got a little older but now that I’m even older still I realize we were right actually lol

JUDGEMENT DAY, originally published in 1953. Comic Code Administrator Judge Charles Murphy rejected this story because the astronaut was Black. William Gaines, EC’s publisher, ran the story anyway. Art by Joe Orlando. 👩🏿🚀✨
