People in the Sun (1960) depicts sunbathers aligned in geometric deck chairs on a hotel sun deck. Their posture echoes sundial shadows. The work connects his late-career refinement of modernist geometries with his interest in 1960s travel culture.

THANK YOU.

All he did was endanger the lives of D.C. residents with a useless stunt because he's a selfish prick

It's a Muff Liquor kind of day.

When it comes to football chants I believe they should be both witty and in terrible taste, and perhaps the winner is that after it was revealed that Rangers goalkeeper Andy Goram suffered from 'mild schizophrenia,' his fans adopted the chant "There's only two Andy Gorams."

Escapee!

I’m not tired of the Reflecting Pool Jello models everyone took to their relatives’ houses for the 4th yet. They’re so creative! Although this one I’d prob not eat. A bit too realistic.

The Justice Department on Saturday argued that an offer from India’s richest man, Gautam Adani, to invest $10 billion in the U.S. played no role in the department’s decision to drop criminal charges against him. nyti.ms/4eWdpof

CNN: You jumped into a pool with a full suit on. What's with the full suit? Why not some shorts or, you know, some trunks? Mamdani: I think I misunderstood the term swimsuit.

BURGUM: The reflecting pool has been a big success STEPHANOPOULOS: You say it's been a success, but the pool is gonna be drained this week, isn't it? BURGUM: Even though there was damage done by vandals, 99.99% of the pool bottom is perfect

The easiest thing in the world should be a for a US official to denounce Nazis. And yet….

If this is true -- a very big if -- it is surely how McConnell would have wanted to go: exploiting the timing of the death of major figures (Scalia, RBG) for cynical partisan gain.

Burgum: "The algae is all gone. That was a momentary thing. As it was being filled, there was algae in the pipes." (So much for Trump's talking point that vandals put algae in the reflecting pool!)

BASH: The president's armored motorcade of SUVs, which can weigh up to 20,000 pounds, drove across that new coating of the reflecting pool. Could that have damaged it? BURGUM: No. There was no damage that night whatsoever.

Because this isn’t Fox or Newsmax, my man.

Here’s the entire toxic nightmare compressed into one minute. You can see the giant smoke cloud drifting toward the predominantly Black areas of DC and Maryland.

They tell me I’m uncultured, but I’ll always recognise a bit of Beethoven.

The principle that all men are created equal has a "finality that is exceedingly restful," Coolidge says, with no need for further great alteration in U.S. institutions. On a busy day he also visits Independence Hall and the Liberty Bell and crosses the new suspension bridge to Camden, N.J. 2/2

Commemorating the real America on this Acela trip.

i learned about the Public Universal Friend today en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_...

It's still our country. If you were disgusted by the way Trump tried to make 250 about him, not about America, join me in planning a Celebrate Your Vote party for November. Let's make sure we keep the Republic. joycevance.substack.com/p/its-our-co...

“This sad spectacle on the National Mall featured Teleprompter Trump, the one who has been warned by his chief of staff, Susie Wiles, to stay on script & at least pretend to sound presidential. But every now and then, like a glitch in the matrix, he reverted to his petty grievances and obsessions.”

I love when MAGA types publish a list of unambiguously good things as if they're unambiguously bad things. It's such a revelation of what fearful cowardly people they are. We live in times of radical abuses. We should all seek radical remedies. All I can say to this is Hell Yeah.

Guys, I was running late but am finally here for the wedding and no one's around. Guys?

If you got on a plane and there was some guy in 1st class going "I don't understand all these knobs and dials, therefore I don't trust the pilot" you wouldn't give him any credence, but that's the way politics in America works because there exists no way to tell a white dude his opinion is nonsense.

This reboot of BEING JOHN MALKOVICH sucks.

We wanted to understand the significance of Denver voters nominating a Democratic Socialist. So we talked to a man in an Uncle Sam costume pacing around the National Mall.

Our 4th of July panel of historians ranks Washington, Adams, and Jefferson as three of the most consequential leaders in history. But another historian, whose training is as a golf caddy, has a different list: Trump, Hitler, and Genghis Khan.

In the 24 hours since Taylor and Travis tied the knot in his home city, Zohran Mamdani has not held a single solo press conference.

This is a new one: 5:05a text telling me my Amtrak train is canceled and they're working on sourcing bus service. Then a 5:06a text telling me my Amtrak train is canceled and I can rebook. No mentions of buses. I cancel my scheduled Lyft ride exactly one minute before they'd charge me.

I love this town

Things are going great

Trump's bone spurs must've flared up here

Trump is glitching heavily tonight: "All voters must show voter ID. All motorsssss must-- all voters"

3am at the diner after a 4 martini night asking for more tzatziki on my gyro but I can't remember the word tzatziki

All of these people deserve to be honored for their service, but it's sad that they're being presented by a fascist who believes in nothing this nation stands for

Trump really thinks he's cooking by running against "communism" and saying it over and over during his speeches
