A Soviet propaganda poster featuring Lenin pointing angrily into the distance. It has been altered. Lenin now has Trump's hair and his skin in orange. The hammer/sickle logo behind him has been replaced with a cross.
There aren't a lot of things I agree with Mark Carney about, but there's one area where he and I are in *total* accord: the old, US-dominated, "rules-based international order" was total bullshit:

The Harpercollins cover for Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff's 'Muskism: A Guide for the Perplexed.'
Quinn Slobodian and Ben Tarnoff's *Muskism: A Guide for the Perplexed* seeks to describe the ideology that gave rise to Elon Musk, the social forces that gave rise to that ideology, and the terrible future that ideology seeks to bring about:

The #FeyWeek #MonsterWeek submission is out! Despite Diablo's focus on demons, one monster family got a sneaky change in the D&D 3e adaptation, and now you can hear me talk about them in this new video series. Thanks to @ginnydi.com and @antodemico.bsky.social!

if Tim Curry had only blessed us with this speech it would have been enough, but he has given us so much more
Happy 80th Birthday to the legendary Tim Curry! 🖤
A large white waterfowl with orange feet stands in front of a door. On the door is a cardboard sign secured with tape that reads, "DO NOT LET THE DUCK IN." Adding insult to injury, I think the duck might be a goose.
Whatever you do,
EMBRACE CARCINIZATION
EVERYTHING WILL BECOME CRAB
SIDEWAYS TO THE FUTURE
YOU ARE A BEAUTIFUL CRAB

The Free Speech Coalition is serious about starting an adult industry credit union. Part of this is being able to show regulators that enough people would use it, so please fill out this form if you're interested!
(Yes, credit unions can issue credit cards!)

A hand dropping a ballot in a box; the box is a complicated, many-geared machine. On its faceplate is an 'I voted' sticker that has been modified to read 'I voted?'
After Bush v Gore, I got involved in a bunch of ugly tech policy fights over voting machines. The hanging chad debacle prompted Congress to appropriate funds for states to purchase new touchscreen voting machines based on a robust, open standard. Problem was, those machines didn't exist.

A flatscreen display on a "smart" water fountain, demanding to be reconnected to the internet.
In 1999, I was playing a decker in Shadowrun, and tried to distract a guard by hacking a water fountain to overflow, and my GM said "why would a water fountain be on the network? That's fucking stupid. No you can't try."
Well it's 2026 and I just want you to know, Phil, that I FUCKING CALLED IT!
PANEL ONE: The shouting mouth of Judge Dredd. "You're under ARREST!" PANEL TWO: A Mephistophelian figure with an outstretched hand, its eyes glowing. "Yeah yeah, you know how this goes, Judge! Better take a couple steps back unless you're after a wicked tan!" PANEL THREE: A deluge of flame with two glowing eyes within it. PANEL FOUR: An explosion, HBWOOOOSHH!, with a silhouette of Dredd in deep shadow against it. PANEL FIVE: A fried skull with a glowing eye. "Catch ya later!" PANEL SIX: Judge Dredd, his face distorted in disgust. "Hrmph."
PANEL ONE: Judge Dredd is patrolling a Mega-City One street. He hears TUNK TUNK TUNK TUNK emanating from a window of a dark high-rise. "Dredd to Control. Suspicious disturbance in a condemned high-rise on the edge of sector 228. Going in to investigate." PANEL TWO: Dredd's finger pressing an elevator button. BLIP! PANEL THREE: The PING of the elevator door. PANEL FOUR: Dredd's boot marching out of the elevator. PANEL FIVE: Dark hallway reflected in Dredd's visor. Only one door is open and light is spilling out of it, as is the sound of TUNK TUNK TUNK. PANEL SIX: Dredd's silhouette. "Dredd to Control. I've located the source of the disturbance." PANEL SEVEN: Dredd's snarling mouth. "Hrmph." PANEL EIGHT: Dredd in the doorway, looking at a machine labeled Suspicious Disturber 3000. The machine is hammering itself, producing the sound TUNK TUNK TUNK TUNK TUNK TUNK.
PANEL ONE: Judge Dredd is pursuing a perp down the elevated highway. In the corner of the image a flying delivery drone approaches the road. "Customer detected." PANEL TWO: Dredd in hot pursuit. "This is Dredd to Control. I'm in pursuit of a perp down the L-level of the 2-95. The suspect is moving at high speed. I'll need approximately two minutes to catch up with him." PANEL THREE: Dredd's determined face. PANEL FOUR: The drone has reached the fleeing perp. "Greetings, customer. Your product is here along with a complimentary bag of snacks, for later." PANEL FIVE: The perp's featureless mask. "Dock and fire." PANEL SIX: The drone docking on the back of the perp's bike. "Firing in 03, 02, 01..." PANEL SEVEN: Dredd's curling lips. "Drokk it!" PANEL EIGHT: A flash of light accompanied by a ZZZIP! PANEL NINE: The perp is roaring down the road, leaving Dredd way behind. "Hrmph."

"That sign can't stop me. I can't read!"
Well, OK, she doesn't have her glasses on and -can't- read it. Why is she showering outdoors? I dunno, just enjoy it. That little dude (Maz) in the back is.
An underwater photo of a hand reaching for what appears to be a large coin. The coin appears to be a lure, attached to the body of a large freshwater mussel.
A photo taken right after the previous one. The coin lure on the mussel has split in two, releasing a cloudy explosion in the hand's direction. The hand appears to be reeling back, now surrounded by a swarm of microscopic mussels.
If you see an old coin under the water, be aware of the Counterfeit Mussel (Lampsilis denarius) before reaching for it.
This freshwater mussel filters metal from the river to create a convincing coin-shaped lure. When a hand approaches, it releases thousands of its parasitic larvae in its direction.
Three panel comic. Panel 1: scene from the movie Aliens; Ripley is in a mech suit and delivers her iconic line: “get away from her, you bitch!” Panel 2: the xenomorph queen lunges at Ripley in the robotic suit and they engage in a fight. Panel 3: later, the xenomorph queen is standing in the shower, mid wash. She says, “‘it takes one to know one, honey.’ That’s what I should have said.”
A line of Nazis at the Nuremburg rally, throwing Nazi salutes. Their backs are to us. Facing them is a hand-tinted group of child laborers from the early 20th century, squinting suspiciously at them.
I'm worried about AI psychosis. Specifically, I'm worried about the psychosis that makes our "capital allocators" spend *$1.4T* on the money-losingest technology in the history of the human race.
