The world is a more dreary place today. Celebrating Marianne Faithfull (1946-2025) on the day of her passing . She wouldn't have liked "Rest in Peace". More like "Rave On in Perpetuity". www.youtube.com/watch?v=d0Nx...

Our best wishes for a happy, peaceful Holiday Season. It's time to regroup for the New Year. C.G. Jung's drawing of a Navajo mandala that evokes the solstices.

I'd imagine there are quite a few of us who have seen the film THX 1138. Remember the confessional scenes? Well, here is reality today. www.independent.co.uk/tech/ai-jesu...

A frustrating thing for me right now is the media narrative that RFK Jr is just an “anti-vaxxer” when he has said so many crazy things about other stuff over the years. We compiled 10 nutty clips on various topics, which still barely scratches the surface. open.substack.com/pub/meidasto...

One of fascism's main tactics is to physically and mentally exhaust you. To flood the zone with outrageous bullshit, to make you bite on a dozen pump-fakes — so that when the real shot comes, you're too worn out to react.

An AI-generated image of himself by Elon Musk in his position at the US Department of Government Efficiency. It's a spooky thing that looks like it belongs in the film Idiocracy as well as being a disgrace to the black leather jacket. Sorry. My mistake. It is in Idiocracy and so are we.
