The War on History: Fighting Back in Bellevue College's mural installation depicting city's history as an immigrant Japanese Community is a long-overdue racial reckoning with our white-supremacist forebears.

A mural on the Bellevue College campus depicting the city’s heritage as an immigrant community became a center of controversy in 2020 when an administrator censored references to the city’s white-supremacist past. Now it’s coming back as a permanent installation.

A graph with the x axis labeled on a continuum between "dracula music" and "carnival music" and the y axis labeled between "sex music" and "no sex music." it is populated with a lot of bands, but the main thing is that sunn o))) is off the chart on both the "no sex" and "dracula" side

The other day in Olympia, Republicans held a protest against the Millionaires' Tax.

Some of the signs included "first they came for the millionaires."...one of the groups of people who are the least impacted by everything that's happening.

They care about the wealthy, not the working class.

a four-panel stick-figure cartoon

panel one:
three standing figures. from left to right, a guy wearing a necktie looking at his phone, an angry MAGA guy yelling FUCK YOUR FUCKIN POST FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, and a rando just standing there like an NPC. 

panel two:
the guy looking at his phone shows MAGA guy his hand, causing MAGA to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where fuckface once was. a green-bordered in-game message appears, reading "+2 Mental Health." now the rando is suddenly interested.

panel three:
as our man continues doom-scrolling, a sly grin on his face, the rando on the right puts on a punch-me face and snarls: "Typical lefty, blocking everyone who disagrees with-"

panel four
phone guy shows the hand to punch-me face, causing the rando to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where that dickhead was. a green-bordered in-game message appears again, reading "+2 Mental Health."

Goodnight from The Bloody Babe pub, where the ferret fashion parade has sharply divided regulars on the wisdom of ever putting animals in costume. Goodnight from Dr. Fiona Low, continuing her experiments on containing spirits in the magnetic fields of C90 cassettes. Goodnight from Hookland.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads:

The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you.

And our governments are very much the same...

- Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Dan Simmons ended his life being a bit of a piece of shit. I read Song of Kali and I think his xenophobia goes back a lot longer than popularly recognized.

But man the first season of The Terror (based on his novel of the same name) is something that I absolutely treasure. Recommend if you haven't.

"So far, just six police departments have applied."
