Thank you for starting my morning with a proper whopp-assing and upgrading it to whole hog hotdog outrage. I needed that.

Color photo of a chaotic scene. In the center, a person in an elaborate Spider-Man costume is reaching towards a heavyset white man in plate carrier and sunglasses, cowering behind a white cross made of I think foam-core. Other people are watching and reaching for them. There's an American flag and two classic protest placards partially visible.

Over the weekend, a person dressed as Spider-Man showed up at a "protest" called by white supremacist Jake Lang and popped him one.

@MackReed I don’t think it’s NIGEL
@MackReed Can't imagine it being anything else.

National Zoo Pamphlet 1978

I don’t think it can be overstated what a profound and immediate effect the 1968 Olympics had on graphic design worldwide, and what a timeless visual language it introduced to the world.
thank you for the link to the full LOC scan! i love that they even used one of the icons as the second "o" of "zoo"
So well done. I just love the subtle-yet-immediately-recognizable distinctions between 'bear' and 'polar bear', or 'swan' and 'goose', 'jaguar' & 'cheetah', etc.
What fresh hell is this?

see, now *that's* what kingfishers look like. Not the big grey boring north american ones
I've only seen them in the wild a couple of times but the intensity of the blue feathers on their back is extraordinary. Properly stopped me in my tracks in amazement. Beautiful creatures

I'm deeply torn between genuinely caring for all the people it would hurt who are already hurting so I don't want it to happen and my strong hate driven desire for Canada to place an export tax on all the energy they send our way in order to hurt the clowns in their shit palace literally standing on their heads right now/near panic *as it is* to keep energy prices low going into the midterms. OTOH maybe some Americans need to learn a thing or two about what our so called "energy independence" and fertilizer imports like potash actually mean. UGH. Maybe just for a week or two before the elections would be a compromise.
Either way Canada, hold the line and don't back down. Bully that fucking bully back.

I'm retroactively happy that the EVSE (charger) i got for our garage EV charging was made in Canada.

"Best Regards,

is just a small piece of the evidence that job hunting and work in general is completely broken in 2026. I really don't look forwards to needing a job in 4-6 months.

Local company’s been trying to fill a role for at least 6 months. I’ve had at least 3 different offshore recruiters call me about it. They’re offering at least 20k less than the qualifications and experience level of the role would merit. I feel like placing a bet as to whether it’s still unfilled at Christmas.
I've been trying to find a role for six months. Whole market feels very very broken right now.

Rewa (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki... ) was a Central India principality, then part of the 'Rajputana Agency' (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...) in what would eventually become Madhya Pradesh. This picture is by the Bourne & Shepherd studio (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki...), was apparently taken in Bombay/Mumbai, and appears in at least one 1902 work, so must be earlier than 1903.

RIP Noël 'Gloop! Gloop!' Godin
alt text
Belgian comedian Noel Godin, who made a name throwing custard pies at celebrities from French film legend Jean-Luc Godard to tech titan Bill Gates, has died at the age of 80.
Nicknamed "the Glooper" for his cries of "Gloop! Gloop!" after each strike, Godin spent more than three decades lobbing pies at rich and famous targets he felt needed bringing down a notch.
Describing himself as an "anarcho-confectioner," Godin began his campaign with a pie in the face of author Marguerite Duras in 1969. His high-profile targets went on to include the future French president Nicolas Sarkozy in 1997.
Godin's target of choice over the years was the flamboyant French philosopher Bernard Henri-Levy, hit no fewer than eight times between 1985 and 2015, not counting copycat attacks by others around the world.
"To be honest, when he is no longer around, I'll be at a loss," Godin quipped to AFP.

"Bernard Henri-Levy" 8 more pies would not even be enough for that person.

shortform youtube video from Stand-up Maths. Preview screen is of the host holding up the 1960s board game box for "the amazing dr. nim"; to his right is the red plastic mechanical board, which consists of 12 marbles set atop a zigzagging vertical path, which includes several white routing switches
ran into a description of this game the other day (falling down a rabbithole of toy mechanical computers).

selfie of worn-out middle-aged mostly-white dude who is thrilled to be alive. of note is the old denim baseball cap subject is wearing, which has a fire-engine red and mustard yellow rectangular patch with stitched cursive script reading “country music hall”
nothing else, just i’m your pawpaw now and i love this hat (found amongst the “thrifted” stuff hanging in a nook at my favorite coffee shop)
every time i saw it, it reminded me of similar stitched denim caps my maternal grandfather wore in the 80s and 90s (though usually with dekalb, international harvester, or some other farming company on the crown patch)
