While I've enjoyed Gavin Newsom trolling Trump, I'm getting really sick of people defending him as a presidential candidate when he thought it was a great idea to embrace MAGA on his podcast and throw trans people under the bus.

The South Park guys tore Charlie Kirk a new one for being a piece of human detritus, a real-life version of Cartman. Gavin thought it would be fun to have Charlie Kirk on his podcast where they trashed trans athletes together.

Fuck Gavin Newsom.

Gavin's main talent is identifying a cause people belive in and getting out in front of it to make it look like he's leading the movement. But everything he does is ultimately about him and his success. That can make him useful politically and help us achieve goals, but I wouldn't ever trust him to do the right thing. But politics make strange bedfellows, and if he's the one standing up to the fascist takeover, I'm going to cheer for him to win that fight the whole way. Then I'll fight him over respecting trans rights and means-testing Medi-Cal. That's apparently the best we can get these days.

The Indian truck driver isn't a new problem for anyone that drives regularly. In 2009 I saw a Maine DOT officer place an Indian driven truck out of service because the three (yes three) drivers in the truck had cut a hole in the floor of the sleeper and were shitting out of it, directly on the driveshaft which threw shit on everything in a 15 food radius of the truck.

He knew they were doing it because they dripped human shit on the scale when they pulled in

Inspired by the campaigns that strangled apartheid South Africa, Bristol residents have built a mass movement of people and local businesses pledging to boycott Israeli goods. Here's how you can do it too.

"...it is perhaps worth while to noite that miniare meant to work with minium (this is, either orange lead or red sulphide of mercury), and that a person who worked with minium was called a miniator, and the things that he was to miniate were called miniatura. So miniatrues were originally the paragraph signs and versals and capitals and headings, and so on, which were to be put in red in manuscripts. The men who put these in sometimes did illustrative and decorative drawings and paintings besides, and these came to be called miniatures too. And, finally, because they were only incidental, and therefore usually rather small, the word miniature came to mean "diminutive.""

You bet I'm going to be effusing about this little fact to anyone who will listen at work tomorrow

"We have no appetite for robust, rich excess. The spirit of pageantry leaves us when we look at pictures. We fear the sun, we choose the gentle shade, we like our gilding rubbed and dulled and worn, and our silver oxidized; and cowering under the topis of our sensitive aesthetic consciousness, we prefer not to believe in the stark brilliance, the garish, gaudy sunshine that the Middle Ages revelled in. We care more for subtle harmony than for triumphant, gorgeous brightness; but we forget that there are harmonies of midday as well as harmonies of dawn and dusk."

— Daniel V. Thompson: The Materials and Techniques of Medieval Painting, p. 100

This ranks in my all-time impassioned rants and easily places Thompson on my dead-or-alive dinner party invite list.

⚡️📱 NEW - Schools across the country are requiring students to lock their phones in a phone pouch for the entire school day, can unlock the pouch at the end of the day.

Teachers and principals say phones in the classroom are becoming too much of a distraction.

“The last couple years, we left it up to the teachers to kind of govern their classrooms,” said Danville High School Principal Jacob Bretz.

“We were just running into the constant battle that temptation of that phone being accessible in the pocket, wondering do I have a message, feeling the notifications go off and the urge to check them.”

Students are required to put all cellphones, ear buds and smart watches in the magnetically locked pouches at the start of the school day.

At the end of the school day, the students are allowed to unlock the pouch.

Illustrating every legendary creature in Wisconsin folklore: The Accordianteater, the Callopode, the Duck-Footed Dum-Dum, and the Gazunk.

These were four different fearsome critters from the legends of Wisconsin's lumber camps which lumberjacks used to explain the strange music they heard out in the woods. Why were they hearing strange music in the woods, you might ask? Well... I don't have a good answer for you.

Anyways both the Callopode and Gazunk could be used to explain flute-like sounds. The Duck-Footed Dum-Dum produced a drumming sound. And the Accordianteater made a musical wailing sound.
