Was it Musk or Trump? Who intervened to hinder Ukraine's satellite internet access, protecting Russian targets from Ukrainian launches? Can stop debating, it looks like the answer is both. Both are Putin sympathizers who have acted to help Russia before, and it'd probably take both to work.

the reason “AI will create so much abundance we will have a utopian society” rhetoric falls so flat is that the people building it will never, ever share their bounty unless it is taken from them and we all know it

October 2026 is going to be closing the gaps on the horror films I've not seen or didnt finish by Craven, Carpenter, Cronenberg, and a few others. So far, Deadly Friend is an underwhelming start 😄🎃

Children of streaming will never know the experience of channel surfing for cartoons alone in a basement and accidentally landing on Freddy Kruger kills

Our feature artist/tutorial for today is this WONDERFUL & ESSENTIAL page on the placement of BODY FAT on figures by the talented @marinscos! REAL BODY SHAPE VARIETY is a part of what makes us all beautiful, and that should be reflected in our art. I LOVE this. #ART #anime #ARTIST

Failed to post at the time, but Mara got me the piece of original comics art I most wanted: an excerpt from MADMAN COMICS #4 where Frank's thoughts turn to empathy and humanism even while fighting for his life.

Trump claims he was basically lifted out of the rubble on 9/11: "Two fireman, big strong guys, they grabbed me under the arms -- 'got to get our of here!' -- and they literally lifted me up, and they started running with me."

if you watch it you tell WB to keep making more Potter stuff and you show them that directly funding JKR’s transphobia, that she LITERALLY uses to strip trans women’s rights away, is not a dealbreaker how could i ever feel safe around someone who buys her the boots she uses to step on my neck?

Mentioned this before but Tim Curry was the most lovely celebrity encounter I've had. He asked if he could take a few minutes to pet the dog I was holding for a friend outside a market. He opened up about having just lost his own dog and the emotionally fallout. Just human, vulnerable, & sincere.
