Four days left to back this incredibly cool comics criticism journal. Need more of this stuff, and in print!

Surprisingly, I don’t think this is the first Bandcamp alternative + collective, I’ve seen, but something about this one gives me hope it might actually have a shot.

The case for Donald Trump is “I erroneously think the economy used to be better? I know that he has made many ominous-sounding threats about mass deportations, going after his political enemies, shutting down the speech of those who disagree with him (especially media outlets), and that he wants to make things worse for almost every category of person — people with wombs, immigrants, transgender people, journalists, protesters, people of color — but … maybe he’ll forget.”
The whole situation with these papers is idiotic. The cracks in capitalism, and more importantly, a major issue with one of the candidates, becomes incredibly clear if you have the mental capacity to read between the lines. Related: Karin Klein does a great job explaining why she resigned over the decision not to endorse at the LA Times for THR.

Even better than News Minimalist, is The Index, “100% News. 0% clickbait,” curated by Joan Westenberg. This is basically exactly what I wanted this site to be, but actually executed well by someone who can write.

While I’m a pretty big skeptic of AI, I think this is a decent way to utilize it. It reads a ton of articles and gives it a significance score based on a variety of criteria.

I’m so freakin’ excited for Lonzo Ball getting back on the court in a Bulls uniform. I don’t have any lofty expectations, of course, just seeing him on the court again and hopefully make it through a season (even on a minutes restriction) would be a success. Like Noh mentioned, Ball’s feel for the game on both ends of the floor is excellent so I can’t wait to see that on display again. And honestly, just being on the floor after the long away is a victory, both mentally and physically.

This whole interview is so good. Allred is a legend and Harper does a great job interviewing here and getting nugget after nugget of gold.

I’ve been eagerly awaiting the music version of Defector/404 since everything went down at Pitchfork and it’s finally here in the form of Hearing Things. Excited to see what they do.

It’s worth remembering that Black men voted for Clinton in 2016 at a level that surpassed white women by thirty-six points.
Might be an unpopular opinion, but blaming any group of people is stupid. I’ve heard white women say they think women are too emotional to be president—which is idiotic. And as a white guy, if any group is to blame, it’s the ones who vote over 50% for the spray tanned nincompoop. There are, hands down, more white men that vote against their own interest than any other demographic.

Are we really surprised that someone obsessed with guns is cool torturing and killing a cat?

In their defense, when you get a cab in the city, you’re probably stuck with just the backseat—but that still gives room for three. Ridiculous that they are just like, “yeah, two seats is good.” So much for “forward thinking.”

This is pretty cool.

Of course, I get it–this seems drastic. But let’s face it, rural hospitals like ours are barely hanging on. Medicare plans drown us in paperwork, making it impossible to turn a profit unless we start offering luxury VIPappendectomies with complimentary champagne. Meanwhile, private insurance companies are busy collecting premiums while doctors are stuck on the phone chasing prior authorizations, leaving little time to care for their patients. The result? Patients fighting to survive in a system that’s barely functioning. Talk about spooky.

Been meaning to link to this since Blake launched it, but it’s been hectic. As someone who only knows a tiny bit of HTML from tinkering with this site template on Blot, I’m super stoked to dig into all of this and actually start to understand how all of this works.

This is the kind of stuff I’m really hoping to cover more of over on foofaraw. I love short films, but it’s often hard to find good ones.

Musk also noted he expects Tesla to start doing “unsupervised FSD in Texas and California next year” with the Model 3 and Model Y. He acknowledged that he’s too optimistic about timelines, but said he expects the Cybercab to be in production by 2026 or “before 2027.”
I’m sure everyone already knows this, but anything Musk says is bullshit.

More than a dozen states and the District of Columbia filed lawsuits against TikTok on Tuesday, saying that the popular short-form video app is designed to be addictive to kids and harms their mental health.

I’ll be honest, I didn’t read the study Jason looks at here, but I trust him not to mislead. And he’s right, we’ve gone insane. The immigration topic (for most, I’m sure you and your dad are the exception) has never been about jobs, money, opportunity, or crime—it’s always been about race.

How surprising… 🙄 Probably made the same place his “Swiss” watches are. So much for America First. To make matters worse, I think Nebraska is buying tons of these for their schools 🤮

It was only a matter of time. People who go through the grind like that tend to love the grind so sitting at home never made sense. I imagine this will be lower stress than managing while still allowing him to be part of the game. I give it two years tops before he’s managing again though.

Pretty incredible stuff albeit impractical. Although, I wouldn’t mind having the doorbell one.

No one had the same top four as me, but one person shared three!

Across all sports, we need more in-game commercials. You think I’m crazy, but hear me out. Games are so over long with extended commercial breaks for time outs and half-times. But what if they weren’t. Look at hockey and soccer—entire periods of play. Amazing!Now I know the networks and leagues will never give up money, they’d inevitably add in-game commercials on top of the existing ones, but I prefer to be optimistic and think one day we can have nice things and enjoy them.

Roger Waters doesn’t seem like a great person so I’m a bit ambivalent about this. I still don’t understand the economics of these big music deal rights given how little streaming services pay. I guess over the super long term it’s good since once it’s paid off, it’s free money, but the time it takes to get to that ROI has to be crazy.

When your planes start falling apart in the sky, what do you do? Cut costs, of course!

Behind on sharing links so be prepared for a bunch of old stuff you’ve probably already seen…

Friend of the Variable and foofaraw contributor Tony Tran is going all in on Inktober doing three different drawings across three different styles. Every. Single. Day. And he’s recording them in this Kinopio space. Incredible stuff.

Some gorgeous photos.

Apologies for anyone not thrilled to see this heading pop-up, but the Onion News Network is back with a splash 🤣

I really want to subscribe to the Criterion Channel again, but I don’t think I can convince the wife to watch enough to get my moneys worth…
