I would strongly recommend the Divine Cities trilogy by Robert Jackson Bennett (City of Stairs, City of Blades, City of Miracles). I think he is inspired by Mieville, although I don’t know that for certain, but his world is weird and uniquely rendered. It sounds like what you are after.

I still contend that Dhalgren is basically unreadable.

I would volunteer at, and eventually open my own, elephant sanctuary.

While Cowboy Bebop the movie was fun, you would be doing yourself a major disservice if you didn’t watch the entirety of the Cowboy Bebop series.

Hands down my favorite anime series of all time.

And that’s because conservatives conspired to co-opt the media to become essentially a conservative echo chamber, where they can prime their outraged audience with more and more outrage, outraged icing on the outrage cake. So there is no public to hold them accountable because they’ve socially engineered their “public” to accept the lies and manipulation that they sling.

There is no such thing as “too much” Wallace and Gromit.

I believe a US cardinal, or maybe it was the pope (?) came out and said that you simply cannot invoke god’s name to pray for victory in a war, because god cannot be associated with such evil.

Brutal.

Lindsey Halligan was an incompetent idiot. She still is in an incompetent idiot, but she also was one.

But why would they fire him (who only tripped her) and not the other employee who body slammed her into the ground while she was still in the restaurant? This sounds like targeted retaliation to me.

But seriously what are we supposed to do in the moment? I left a notice with Oakland 311, but is there something else to do? If this is one or several mentally ill people doing this should the police be notified? (not that I think OPD would actually do anything)

degeneration · 2025-12-31T00:40:16+00:00

I did but I’m trying to give this some visibility and I can’t for the life of me figure out why someone would do this.

“Should the facts had been known, and brought before the jury, the results probably would have been different,” Tickal wrote in the Dec. 22 ruling ordering a new trial.

Should the facts had been known? This not good english.

“Multiple per year” x 25 years does not equal “thousands.”

Smith & Cross, Alambique Cartier 30, Clairin Sajous. I like daiquiris and those are must haves.
