By who? Who shot the person dead? You saw the video. We all know a federal agent shot a man dead who was prone on the ground. Also, it's not "according to officials." It's according to verified video seen with your eyes. Not saying what anyone can obviously see with their eyes is a form of lying.

Believe your own eyes and ears. Trust your own soul.

Watch this video and decide for yourself whether this woman was such a threat that she had to be shot and killed a few seconds later.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

A trilobite, a wiwaxia & a marrella travel from the far distant past to the future, and walk into a bar.

The orange elongated bartender was a vertebrate, a Phylum unfamiliar to time-weary travelers.

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".

I don't make these often, but wanted to remind that a great way to support my work (so that I can even keep making art) is through Patreon.
I have lots of options on tiers and offer rewards + other fun stuff, depending on which you choose.
Consider checking me out there and thanks for reading! 😁

#Academia is only for the rich. I have a conference next week that I've had to pay €1,281 for out of my own pocket just for registration, transport, and hotel. I am not guaranteed to get any of this refunded. But I need to present my work at conferences to *maybe* have a career. 1/n

Anyone who thinks history is an esoteric topic needs to realize that manipulating history to present a certain narrow vision of the US is integral to Trump's authoritarian agenda.

The Trump White House plans to conduct a far-reaching review of Smithsonian museum exhibitions, materials and operations ahead of America's 250th anniversary to ensure the museums align with "Trump's interpretation of American history." www.wsj.com/politics/pol...

Families in Gaza are starving to death. Meanwhile, Trump & Netanyahu are using US taxpayer dollars to replace international aid orgs in Gaza with mercenaries — leading to even more deaths.

ENOUGH.

I led 20 Senators in calling on Trump to stop supporting this barbarity:
Senate Democrats urge U.S. to stop funding GHF, resume support for U.N. food distribution in Gaza as more starve
Senate Democrats told the secretary of state they have "grave concerns" about the U.S. role in financing GHF, the main group distributing aid in Gaza.

Abughazaleh: I am from one of those families. I do not want Israeli children to live in fear. And I don't want gazan children to starve to death. And there is no enemy of either state that could want me to wish that or excuse the starvation of children. It is that simple.

WeTransfer just changed their TOS giving themselves permission to train AI on any content you transfer and produce derivative works based on content you transfer that they are allowed to monetize and you are not allowed payment for.

Stop using WeTransfer.
