WFMU is free *and* no underwriting adds

“Aliens” sure is a funny way to spell, “Epstein”.

Agread. Reading, "Eichmann in Jerusalem" atm and it's the "oh no I'm in danger" meme every other page.

@heartywhite.bsky.social I'm enjoying today's show. Great funny sounds!

There once was an AI from Shanghai
That claimed to do maths on the fly
When asked for the sum, of one plus one
The answer arrived arrived wasn’t two

why is the white house sending out press releases about pemmican?

Hey, but at least that Fallout show is cool, right?

Drawing of a man sitting at a table with an open notebook. The word, "Reality" floats above them. Below in quotes, "I looked up 'butt' on wikipedia."

Mucking about with my site again, very slowly.

Couple of drawings, keeping a list of "songs of the day", and a few notes about books I'm currently reading.

All I want to know is why Aronofsky's new film, which appears to be a wooden horse shape (voiced by SAG actors), was left outside the city gates?

Why are so many otherwise well intentioned folks still using substack? What gives?

Statement from the family of Alex Pretti, Michael and Susan Pretti: We are heartbroken but also very angry. Alex was a kindhearted soul who cared deeply for his family and friends and also the American veterans whom he cared for as an ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital. Alex wanted to make a difference in this world. Unfortunately he will not be with us to see his impact. I do not throw around the hero term lightly. However his last thought and act was to protect a woman. The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump's murdering and cowardly ICE thugs. He has his phone in his right hand and his empty left hand is raised above his head while trying to protect the woman ICE just pushed down all while being pepper sprayed. Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man. Thank you.

Statement from the family of Alex Pretti.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

I'm working with these folks and it is incredible to watch the speed, enthusiasm, and comradery happening behind the scenes in what's a completely ad-hoc group of printer rogues.

HMU if you have a new or upcoming comic or zine- I’ll list in the new issue of Comics Blogger

I wonder if that squiggle in the last panel is a reference to Hogarth’s, “line of beauty?” en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Line_of...

Does anyone have recommendations for crossposting app, able to post to bluesky and mastodon? iOS and alt text support.

Multicolored drawing in a sketchbook. People, a skeleton, and colorful shapes.

Yep. Old people looking at you like you have two heads for wearing a mask is especially fun when they’re the one more likely to die from covid of the two of us.

I cannot tell you just how *tremendously hard* various volunteers have worked on this massive @unbreaking.org update: sifting through awful, terrible news every single day, identifying connections and themes, all to build a clear picture of the harm the federal government’s caused.

*Three* wise men? In this economy?

Two Waymo's, both stuck.

Takes a lot of gall for a guy who can't stay awake during work meetings to call for work requirements to get SNAP.

How does a turkey afford a pardon from trump? They don't have wallets.

All this AI slop has me thinking of that neoteny bit in Raw.

Why not keep the old ones in print?

Do amazon film execs also wonder where mommy goes when playing peek-a-boo?

Read my copy last night, enjoyed it. Killer cover and laughed at the, Tim Goodyear got up on stage and played Sax line.

How to point at fascists and laugh The last slide from my new talk. It plays a role below. Contribute to my eventual bail fund at $2 a pop. This week’s question comes from me, actually: How...

This week’s newsletter is about getting out of the boiling pot of water and deciding not to climb back in.
