“I was supposed to be having the time of my life.”

Today in Labor History March 24, 1834: William Morris, British author, textile designer and revolutionary socialist was born on this date. He wrote the utopian novel “News From Nowhere” and founded the Socialist League in 1874. He was influenced by both Marxism and anarchism.

What an utterly shameful display. This is a new low. Just disgusting! If Putin doesn't have something on this filth, I'll go he.

HEAD’S UP: If @mastodon_notifications (or anything similar) sends you a DM, do not click on it.

This is a phishing scam.

That account is not associated with Mastodon in any official capacity and is a complete grift. Though it is aesthetically similar to a Mastodon site, it does not run Mastodon, and clicking on several links brings forth a 404.

(And yes, I accessed this site using gloves 😉)

Of course, I’ve reported this account. But where one account exists, I suspect there are others!

Thanks for all the oneiric rhapsodies David Lynch. A true modern master of the uncanny lurking behind the glossy facades of popular culture.

Hugely disappointing to see Andy Yen (Proton CEO) tout the Republican Party as the ones “standing up for the little guys” 🤢

When I talk to comic book artists I always emphasize the importance of clearly separating their planes of depth. This rule is only for comics and does not apply to Turkish photographer Sami Uçan.
