No. The truth must be said, proud and loud.

They probably have people to take care of that, but I'm pretty sure seeing colours would help the poor kid's brain develop...

The murder victim in the cave painting could have been a scapegoat, it could be a depiction of a mythological story, it could be a triumph over a stranger,it doesn't prove much without further information from the culture that made it.

The existence of capital punishment (absolutely no surprise there, it's a basic feature in every human society) says nothing about the motivations of these murders.

I need to read the article properly, but the argument veers very close to eugenics. Cooperation is present in every task that groups must do and coordinate, it must not be murder. Also, I can't see the recession of the bullying genes that much. If violence was driving evolution it's rather war imho

I still haven't got around to watch it, but the 11yo has loved it, watched it at least two times. I trust her judgement, she likes cool shows.

Ratai ("My Naked Body") is an absolute banger, a "bare your soul on the stage and set it on fire" song. That scream in the middle always kills me. (And the lyrics, too)

Have I ever mentioned that I love Cocco? For a long time I've not been a fan of J-pop (somehow there's an omnipresent sound that I don't enjoy any more), but this lady sings with so much soul, I get lost in her world every time.

I wonder if there is still a market for realistic paintings to be used as illustrations in children's books about nature. I loved (and still love) these amazing pieces by all those unsung heroes!

Oh, this is actually VERY good advice. Amazing to see her much evil the average bureaucrat can do when they try to anticipate the policy so that their own skin remains safe... 😕

I wonder if, when AI turns evil, it will think it's actually required to turn on the red lights in the cameras of every interface. Would be really helpful.

Yeah, late 90s-early 00s American TV really pushed the plausible deniability game to its limits. No wonder Utena, Sailor Moon (I'm looking at you, Haruka) and co. hit so hard... You can just do that on television...?!

In Alan Moore's essays on writing comics, he drops a line in the conclusion: "It's more important to be a good human being than a good writer." Try to remember that.

It also needs to be said, not just because complaining is good for the soul, sometimes, but because the readers would never imagine it's hard - the artwork, when good, seems so effortless...

My terrible comic for #terriblecomicday is so terrible, it's a day late. It addresses an important issue, though.
