Always a treat to be reminded of an old friend

FDR's post war vision was clear. 18th century colonial imperial capitalism was dead; and more than that, as he is explicit about, it is the root of the evil that we faced in global fascism, the first time around as it is today. Attacking Britain's 'free' trade agreements w/ India et al. he goes on:

Astrophotographer Adam (AJ) Smadi caught this image a few hours ago from Washington state. A thin crescent Moon, sunlight illuminating the rugged lunar surface. And 2,400 times farther away—and on the other side of the Sun—mighty Jupiter, and its moons Io (left) and Ganymede (right).

I’m not sure who said it first, but I’ve been thinking about this line all week

Being a real nerd that knows real math and science makes this shit utterly insufferable.

This bit is still so fucking raw.

this is my new favorite diagram

I’m writing on this.

The only Odyssey hot take you absolutely need to read is Lord Dunsany's.

Let’s remember why the film industry took off in LA: -Cheap land -good weather -stable employment -extensive infrastructure You can give all the tax incentives you want, if LA is not affordable and the jobs are 3 months a year, it’s not a movie town. www.hollywoodreporter.com/business/bus...

Holy shit, THAT is a fucking LEDE

Put "Exclusion is never the answer" on a fucking banner, we ride at dawn.

i remember scientists saying 20 years ago that climate change-fueled wildfires would darken and poison the skies hundreds of miles away. but republicans said that was a lie, so now climate change-fueled wildfires darken and poison the skies hundreds of miles away every summer

Imagine you sign up for a rideshare gig app after you get laid off. Imagine it starts offering gigs that break the law in exchange for thousands of dollars for a night of work. What happens when it starts blackmailing you into killing your best friend? Check out Happy Traveler now!

Salient essay about art, design, intentionality, and so on. Worth the read if you make art in any capacity, or desire to.

I’m always saying this

Double-feature of The Backrooms (2026) and Ad Astra (2019) as two very different approaches by characters with the same internal systems of toxic maladaptive behaviors

A key point in Fahrenheit 451 is that books were banned because they made people depressed and uncomfortable. The novel's protagonist, Montag, is taken into custody after he reads a poem that makes a woman cry because she realizes the emptiness of her life.

We need $1.5 million to make our feature film Polaris in Japan. It’s a love story about an African-American chef who loses his sense of taste and travels to Japan to fulfill his father’s last wish. If you have $1.5 million sitting around, DMs are open. 🎬🇯🇵

People ARE stupid but you should do subtext anyway. You can spell it out as blatantly as possible and people will still willfully misinterpret it. I don't want all art to become shows for preschoolers, personally

i don't want to give a talk at a game dev conference or write a manifesto or anything but if i did at this point in my career i think the topic would be "we all seriously need to start diversifying our inspirations"

The PS1's processor was too weak to render Cid cussing, so I'm very excited to see hear and perhaps feel them in HD

:’( Baruch Dayan Ha’emet Everyone should read Persepolis, and watch the film. It’s possibly more urgent than ever

California's options for governor are a billionaire who says he'll fight for progressive policy changes that would make my life better, or a guy who's campaign is propped up by billionaires and promises to make my life worse. So yeah, I voted for Tom Steyer. Wasn't a hard choice!

Not about anything in specific but I think we gotta be really careful about not conflating the concept of "enshittification" with the impulse to assume that everything was always better during your adolescence

Cetacea

You guys wanna see what stupid bullshit made me weep openly most recently

Everyone give this a look! I had the privilege of viewing it around when it was first finished, and I still think about it. Kevin really has the sauce.

I see you finally published your autobiography.

Okay

The most bad-ass rebuttal from Tite Kubo, the author of Bleach.

"This is not who we are" should always be understood as an aspirational statement that carries forward the legacy of countless Americans who fought and died to make it as true as possible, to create the space for you and I to take up the rallying cry.

something strange and horrible and somehow fitting that we should have a very real threat of madman civilizational destruction at the very moment when we also have humans on the dark side of the moon taking pictures that show how small, precious, and beautiful our world and existence is
