- Just watched an opposing counsel, who lost the SLAPP motion I filed, appear on his client’s instagram video, with her whining about the ruling and what a victim she is, and him making stupid comments about the ruling. Freakishly unprofessional. And perhaps . . . useful.
- The initials for Secret Service are USSS, not SS, for obvious reasons.

- It’s not just Trump’s $400 million plane. I wrote about Qatair Force One and the extensive efforts of Qatar to buy influence in America and beyond, from conservative media to members of government. It's wild stuff. Gift link (but with no expectations in return!):

- And the student's diploma is being withheld because of their speech. What kind of cowardly, anti-free speech, morally bankrupt institutions are we running when we are afraid that people might be exposed to politics with which they disagree at a graduation speech?

- The credit for X-Men Remastered on the Eisners is wrong. The book collects stories Glenn Greenberg edited 30 years ago, but I'm the sole editor of the book. I'm real happy for the team but crediting "Glenn Greenberg and others" really sucked the joy out of this one. "And others" on my own project 😐

- While I'm on the general subject of "AI," let me just say that it's a real dickheaded maneuver to tell an actual artist that their work "looks like AI." Their work doesn't look like "AI" because they're aping what "AI" does; it looks like "AI" because the "AI" company fucking stole from them.

- 3 headlines of Trump’s brazen, unprecedented corruption that would end any other presidency, all just from today. (Imagine what we don’t even know about) If you don’t see what he’s doing it’s because you don’t want to.

- The Afrikaner stunt is the kind of thing that has backfired so far -- it creates legal arguments for other refugees about animus. But holy hell he's not hiding the white sheets.
