the American right is now fully owned by total pencil-neck weenies who are afraid of their own shadows, and braindead bullies tasked with enforcing their political program. like the Simpsons where Martin and Nelson team up.

"There's a reason why you separate military and the police. One fights the enemy of the state, the other serves and protects the people. When the military becomes both, then the enemies of the state tend to become the people." Battlestar Galactica

In quoted tweet: Which Way Western Man is a book written by a white nationalist and published by a neo-Nazi organization. Trump's DHS is again putting fascist dog whistles into tweets. Here's the original Country Gentleman magazine cover. DHS Nazis changed the words on the signs.

A guy throws a footlong Subway sub at a cop, Trump's thugs make this video about arresting him, and the judge rightly says charging him with a felony is excessive. Haha This is what the Trump fascists are proud of - their government overreach and their pathetic weakness.

Aside from everything else, think about the security breach it is to have a former KGB agent and current dictator of Russia inside the vehicle the President of the United States rides around in regularly. But hey, if Putin takes him off our hands...

It's funny, Twitter doesn't even notify me of the replies I get from Trump cultists, I have to happen to look at my tweets again to see some fascist moron has responded with lies. Twitter knows those Trump worshipper tweets are so low quality that they're barely above spam, haha.

Maybe the best movie & performance from Terence Stamp (1938-2025) is The Limey, Steven Soderbergh's 1999 crime drama. Stamp is an old cockney gangster investigating the death of his daughter in LA. Stylized & sharp. Cast includes Luis Guzmán & Bill Duke. kanopy.com/en/product/113…

The weirdest thing about this clip is that what Trump actually says is, "If you have mail-in voting, you're not gonna have many Democrats get elected." Did he misspeak in his usual rambling moron way, or what? He can't be pretending to care about Democrats, haha

Indie comics publisher Fantagraphics is being robbed of millions of dollars' worth of books by the distributor Diamond to pay for the latter's bankruptcy. Fanta is running a sale to help cover these costs - 30% off everything on their website through Mon: Fantagraphics.com

A month after the right cried over the left supposedly crying about the Sydney Sweeney jeans ad (I saw no complaints about the ad, just complaints about the supposed complaints), the right pretends the Cracker Barrel logo simplification is political, cries, & hurts CB's stock.

I so rarely check Twitter anymore, I'd forgotten that it's worthless to look at replies to popular tweets, because all the paid account bots are the top of the replies, and they go on foreverrr, haha.

If you haven't reread George Orwell's Animal Farm lately, now's a good time. We're at the part where the pig Napoleon is blaming everything on Snowball and having the dogs intimidate the other animals. Trump of course is the dictatorial Napoleon, "Lord of the Swill Bucket."

The New York Comics & Picture-story Symposium schedule for the rest of 2025 is here. Meetings are online and free. I'm especially interested in Jordan Crane's presentation and hearing Fahmi Reza interviewed on satire against power. More info: nycomicssymposium.substack.com/p/fall-2025-ca…
