Got to finally see GDT's Frankenstein. As expected, knocked my socks off; loved the tenderness, loved the juxtaposition of whimsy to gore, and loved the deep sincerity of craftsmanship. Mixed feelings on the wolf interlude, though. Justice for wolf representation in media, imho.

TIL about a memorial ceremony in Iceland in 2019 to mark the end of a glacier, changing the place name from Okjökull to Ok (jökull = glacier). Uncompromising wording on the bronze plaque:
"This is to acknowledge that we know what is happening and what needs to be done. Only you know if we did it".

This cross-pollination IS how new ideas happen. EVERY field needs humanistic thinking, that's why they call PhDs "Doctors of Philosophy"

Since the declaration of the supposed ceasefire, the Israeli military has violated it an average of ten or more times a day, murdering hundreds of Palestinians, including scores of small children.
There is no peace in Gaza, nor in the West Bank. As the genocide continues, so must our resistance.

He is not challenging scientific orthodoxy. He is trying to destroy public health in the United States by lying about decades of data on the safety and efficacy of vaccines.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy — in this case, that vaccines save lives — and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.

This is far worse than anyone expected.
Trump's HUD plan would cut *two-thirds* of permanent housing and push as many as 170,000 formerly homeless people back onto the street—redirecting funds to work mandates, forced treatment, and encampment sweeps.
All as mass internment camps are being built.

If we want change, WE have to change. The system oppresses us, but it also contains, entraps, and uses us. Our work and our spending are its gears. Every bullet and bomb is built on value stolen from our labor. And unless we refuse it, we choose it.
Refusal to comply is a way we all can fight.
