Phear and Loathing

In The Garden of Earthly Delights, the triptych by Hieronymus Bosch, there is some music written on the butt of one of the tormented. The music was transcribed by Amelia Hamrick. It then was arranged and performed by James Spalink. It was arranged as would have been the style in the 15th Century when the painting was completed. It sounds like this:

Yes please, show me some pecs and biceps. Show me some gun belts slung low over slutty hips and thighs. It's clear that actors unironically were proud of the work they put into looking good for the TV.

And now, everyone is panicking.

Which really shows.

These past three or four days, multiple countries have reached the threshold. Even more notably, the number of signatures in total, the ones that we need to get one million of, are growing rapidly. There are only 400'000 signatures missing. Two days ago, it was closer to 600'000.

You can see the progress here:

Could you learn magic and become a powerful and evil wizard? In the Middle Ages, you could—if you had a copy of Picatrix.

Giving a facsist rapist felon fraud a 79th birthday parade that costs the taxpayers $92 million?

Christians will love the military theme. The fiscally conservative will say nothing. The taxed too much crowd will gladly waste the money.

Egyptian Revival Art Deco evening dress, 1926 by Jenny

Short dress in gold lamé decorated with embroidery of transparent pearls with turquoise and pink cores, transparent tubes with metal cores, flat turquoise and pink balls, faceted golden olivettes and salmon pearls, forming a decoration composed of stylized flowers with Egyptian-influenced lotus, V-neckline in front and back, sleeveless, low waist, straight, belt highlighted with pearls, panel on the left side finished with a pearl fringe.

The couturier Jenny made this dress for herself.

1. cancel game pass subscriptions

2. avoid spending time/money on candy crush, Minecraft and call of duty

3. boycott all Microsoft gaming products, including Xbox branded consoles and accessories AND any Microsoft owned publishing labels

Bare minimum you should be able to cancel a game pass subscription, but I think we can all try to push for a level 3 participation. BDS specifically requests people avoid Bethesda in their list of Microsoft owned publishers.

This is a specific request of a targeted boycott, which has a higher chance of success. It's nearly impossible to avoid products from all companies involved in the genocide, but we can focus on specific targets with specific demands and help push Microsoft to divest.

I am not exaggerating.

As of now, anybody can be disappeared, no due process, no recourse. Trump is openly disregarding a Supreme Court order and says he’ll send US citizens to El Salvador.

This is not a drill.

Call your House rep and tell them they must impeach. Tell them if they cannot bring themselves to impeach, they must resign. A more open and shut case to impeach is not possible. Trump and his administration are saying openly, in public, that anybody can be kidnapped by ICE, even in error, and disappeared permanently.

Call your senators, too, and tell them to support impeachment (it goes to them once it passes a majority House vote).

I am reaching out today to urge Representative ______ to call for the impeachment of President Trump due to his refusal to comply with the Supreme Court's April 10th decision regarding Kilmar Abrego Garcia, who was unlawfully deported and has been charged with no crime. As Justice Sotomayor stated, this inaction implies the government's ability to 'deport and incarcerate any person, including U.S. citizens, without legal consequence, so long as it does so before a court can intervene.' This precedent is unconstitutional, highly illegal, and grounds for impeachment. Every individual, regardless of immigration status, must be guaranteed a right to due process.

Representative _____, I urge you to stand on the right side of history today by calling for President Trump's impeachment. This administration can not be allowed to continue unilaterally defying the checks and balances that are intrinsic to our government."
