Worried man with a worried mind. Psychogeographer, urbanist in the Guy Debord sense.

Let me not be put to shame, Lord,
for I have cried out to you;
but let the wicked be put to shame
and be silent in the realm of the dead.

Psalms 31-17

it's messed up that you can work on tv shows and then months later be broke or even homeless

There are no shortage of reasons why kids aren't reading but I think the shift from paper books to online reading is a part of it. Reading something you physically hold is more satisfying somehow than words on a bright screen and it is a different experience.

Been feeling bleak for the past week after I read an essay saying the market for middle-grade books has collapsed because kids can no longer read them. Two long-time publishers of middle-grades have shuttered, with more to come. We don’t appreciate what a crisis this is. +

The Fujimoris are an evil political family. A fact completely unrelated to President Keiko Fujimori's right-hand man having a hook for a hand. That's just stuff from movies.

Chinese police are cracking down on protesters in Chongqing, where public anger has erupted over a man who allegedly posed as a dog lover while killing at least two dogs and abusing many others.

According to protesters, authorities initially refused to take action, prompting residents and animal welfare advocates to take their grievances to the streets. Videos circulating online show police beating and arresting demonstrators outside the residential community where the man lives.

Ain't no larping in Jainism. That strikes as me as the kind of extreme position where you go in all the way or not at all and you probably have to be born into it.

[Bilious Black @BlakkBile]

I've seen people claiming to be converts to every semi-obscure religion in the world living and dead online, but never have I seen someone larp Jainism.

Poland: Police seized over 1 ton of heroin in the port city of Gdynia after acting on a tip from UK authorities about a shipment originating from the United Arab Emirates. The heroin was concealed as decorative bricks inside shipping containers.

Two men and one woman from Poland have been charged in connection with the smuggling case.

The @PhillyMayor needs to go pick up her anti people barriers. I had to move these so these folks could safely get through this morning using a wheelchair.

This is really quite striking. The CCP has long said that they would cooperate with Triads as long as they were "patriotic," i.e. willing to support the party's efforts when called upon. The CCP has never really had a problem with criminality. The Comintern reported that the CCP sold opium to Chinese people from Yan'an to fund itself. Plus ça change...

When you don’t fund transit. Then you get transit concerns.

The Bolsheviks took the equivalent of millions from Savva Morozov - one of the richest men in Russia - and Alexander Parvus - a shameless war profiteer. You are conflating Christian poverty ethics w socialism. Stop speaking #broke

Oman’s Forgotten Feminist Marxist Revolution

On this day in 1965 years ago, the people of Oman’s Dhofar province ignited their armed struggle. Motivated by Arab nationalist sentiment, the struggle aimed to overthrow the feudal Sultan Said bin Taimur.

For context: Sukeo Ida was a Japanese Communist who was sent to fight in China. He stole 100,000 rounds of ammunition, left it where the Chinese could find it, and killed himself.
