Word spiv, cunning-man, queer cyborg crip. 5+ years Long Covid survivor. REALLY Not for the Jesus-Man. No fash, no terfs, No Pasaran. It Isn't AI and it's worse than useless. Writing occult memoir, NEW GODS AND MONSTERS.

Ten years ago today (what a way to start my Saturn return!), Ogun was seated on my head at the hands of my godfather, making my heart to beat with a loving fierceness of strength and service. Maferefun Ogun, the Great One In Iron and the Great One Of Iron, all the time of my life! ⚔️🔥🛡️💚🖤💚❤️💚🖤💚🛡️🔥⚒

A painting entitled "Ogum Mege" by Rodolfo Carvalho, depicting the orisha Ogun with six arms in various postures wielding weapons.

Oct 10th 1994 - The Justice Department informs the Senate Oversight Committee for Covert Operations about Dr Hans Kleindast's time travel invention and the need to form the T.E.C. (Time Enforcement Commission) to police time travel. 📽️📅 Timecop (1994)

3 Screenshots from the movie "Timecop" (1994): First, an aerial view of Washington, D.C. with the Capitol building prominently in the center; the text overlay reads "WASHINGTON, D.C. OCTOBER 10, 1994." Second, a dimly lit room with a long table surrounded by people in a meeting; the subtitle reads "We have to form a new agency to police this technology and protect time." Third, a close-up of a man wearing glasses and a suit, speaking with the subtitle "It will be called the Time Enforcement Commission or the T.E.C."

The ‘moderation service’ on here is truly fucked. You can see all sorts of horrible atrocities but a pair of painted tits immediately gets flagged as ‘Adult Sexually Explicit’ Puritanical cunts.

I was reading from either Chiang or Doctorow about how the tech industry has gone hog wild into LLMs because it has *no new ideas.* All the money is in 6 companies that eat rivals just as they bloom; they don't have TIME to become the next Big Thing. They are acquired and killed. Tech has stagnated

I was wondering what that scuttling noise was - it's the UK desperately trying to arrange some deckchairs now the US has aligned with Putin and we're desperately trying to pretend that we're not helping the US with the "Special Relationship" whilst also trying to get back into the EU.

Graydon Carter’s memoir says he wrote an unflattering piece about how vulgar Trump is for GQ. Thin-skinned Donald got employees to buy all the copies. Si Newhouse, noting the brisk sales, recommend that Random House publish “The Art of the Deal,” which led to “The Apprentice.” Hence this presidency.

I am not sure I like the modern age of being forced to listen to super rich fuck wits. But I'm not sure I liked the previous modern age of being forced to listen to super posh fuck wits. The least interesting people have the loudest voices and bought the fucking platforms to bore from.

There's a point where you have to deal with the fact that the US isn't "divided," it's not "polarization;" it's that a significant amount of the populace are dangerously-negligent and malevolent enough that they should be completely disenfranchised from the representative political process.

Would specifically like reviews of: Empty Zone, Fringe (Caliber Press), CLF: Cyber Liberation Front, Ratsbane, and Shatter. But not limited to those. Reviews of newer comics welcome! Email klintfinley@gmail.com or reply with what you want to review.

Wanted: Very short (2-3 sentence) nano-reviews of cyberpunk comic books for the Sewer Mutant Cyberpunk Spectacular zine.

"We're going to do something incredibly shit and blame Autocorrect to see just how much the law will let us fuck you all over whenever we feel like it" Holding the owners and executives PHYSICALLY responsible is really the only rational way to handle the actual (as opposed to the purported) dangers
