Kyle

The new Rick and Morty episode came out for season 5. Nimbus says he likes his other helper, "Kyle". Kyle is a blob from "The Ricks Must Be Crazy" (S2E6).

And what is with this new TV room?

Someone wrote: 

"Rick got nerfed, he was beaten almost dead in the intro, acted like a submissive schmuck throughout, morty/summer were the badasses, and beth/jerry got to swing, all topped off with Rick getting the shit kicked out of him again and carted off by the police. Dr. Wong specialty is treating people who eat shit. If you ever stop to wonder why, and you liked this episode, and want more of this, go find a mirror. Harmon and co, have created an entire tv show which mocks it's audience relentlessly through the guise of previously all powerful Rick who's contempt for literally everyone in the entire universe is only matched by the creators of Rick and Morty's contempt for us their audience."


There's a little bit of a spoof of Shakespeare's histories in the Hoovy story, I think. People keep killing each other and the guy kills his father, and takes over, and like the second after that, he's killed, and the next guy is monologuing.

Manet and Degas

  Brilliant video explaining the exhibit. Go to the Met and see the exhibit! It's really quite special.  In the last gallery the painting this sketch is based off of, of the execution of a Mexican president. The painting has been cut into sections, and the surviving Degas has reassembled them. NY Times review

The case for Harris

Motley Kamuka Blog endorses Kamala Harris. In general, Trump just wants to lower taxes on the rich, and do nothing, sell whatever influence he can to line his pockets. Apparently the emoluments clause in the constitution has no teeth. Harris has a set of ideas about policy that are fairly middle of the road. In most countries she's would be seen as a centrist. Spin about her radical agendas are exaggerated.  I'm not sure how he got past " grab them by the pussy ", but he did and here we are. Women: Obviously the idea of giving women pregnancy tests at the borders of the state, and then if they come back and don't have a baby, they go to jail, isn't really what most women want. Pick Harris.  I understand if you think abortion is murder, maybe you've been told that by the Catholic church, which has the same ideal of Buddhism that you don't kill--so follow your religion for yourself. Not everyone is Christian or Buddhist or even has a religion. Women are ...

Gravity's Rainbow Notes Franz Pokler

From pp 397-433: Franz Pokler , a German rocket scientist. He is marginally associated with early attempts to develop rockets in the 1920's. During the war, Weissmann controls Pokler, giving him routine assignments and keeping him in line by allowing him yearly visits from a girl who he says is Pokler's daughter. The girl spends the rest of the year in a concentration camp, and Weissmann's implied threat is that she will be killed if Pokler fails to cooperate with Weissmann's scheme. Weissmann's purpose is to use Pokler to make one small part for the A4 rocket. In the end, having performed his task, Pokler is released; Slothrop meets him living quietly in the ruins of a children's village after the end of the war. His daughter also survives. Wiki notes on the Franz Pokler section 397-433 Abstract of "Franz Pökler's Anti-Story: Narrative and Self in Gravity's Rainbow" by Robert L. McLaughlin.
