Historian here 2026 and we are back there.

My kitchen table issue is “don’t shoot people at their kitchen tables”

BREEEEENNNNDDEEEEENNNN!!!! YEEEEESSSSSS!!!

Just me, wearing my Leeds jersey today (and whew, good news in the timeline)

Hey kids, time for the first '26 "I cant believe I'm reposting this guy" post

Today's timeline sucks. Off to see what's up in the art community

Mayor Jacob Frey: "They are already trying to spin this as an action of self defense. Having seen the video myself, I want to tell everybody directly that is bullshit."

Sweet Bejeebus, this day of all days, please STFU. "Acquiring Greenland?" I'm sorry, did someone put up a listing on foreign-owned-land-for-sale-dot-com and I missed it?

this is actually much more important video

Fuck Bari Weiss, fuck bootlicking regime propaganda

one of the things i hate most about this persistent line of argument is the implication that any of these actions would be fine if groceries were cheaper

Gonna need some political pros and economists to weigh in on the legality of this, b/c it sounds suss AF.

A bajillion dollars spent on consultants and endless obsession over squashing the left to protect party messaging just to produce this. You can care about the President's reckless and illegal imperialism and his economic incompetence at the same time, but this just trivializes both.

I want to find the consultant who convinced Dems to stick with this framing, tie them to a stake, light a match, and tell everyone they have to decide between caring about saving them or caring about milk being 2% cheaper

Pics here from a source on the scene of Bovino arriving

Private equity dudes who own health-care systems are gonna love this! (You, US resident who needs health care, will not love it, trust me on this.)

I, a lifelong D, wish to god our elected D's would laser-focus on walking and chewing gum at the same time. Where's the focus on the constitution and our system of government and laws? (which, btw, impact what I'm paying at the grocery store?)

Trump: "I said, 'Check the tariff shelf' ... we've taken in $650 billion." (Note the complete silence from House Republicans as he hypes tariffs.)

Complete stab in the dark here. Does anyone have access to The St. Lucia Archaeological and Historical Society series? I'm desperately looking for a pamphlet in the series published by Charles Jesse in 1969 in the St. Lucia Miscellany issue. Only copy I can find is physical volume in Jamaica.

Wait up, this site hasn't discovered Pro Women's Soccer Weddings??

I don't see what's hard about telling Americans the truth: The aged lying self-obsessed president who tariffed your stuff while blocking the Epstein Files & taking multiple cognitive tests just started a war you didn't ask for, for no coherent reason other than he thinks it makes him look good on TV

Re-upping, Phillies mentioned!

Well, it was either all this or another black person in a Star Wars movie

Republican math: Can afford: bombing and “running”Venezuela Can’t afford: universal healthcare, food stamps, and childcare.

Translation: you stole my peace prize, bitch

We had a good run

Wow, he sounds pissed. Let's see if he voted to confirm Rubio

“The women voting solely on abortion make me crazy,” (Jennifer) Ziemba said. “I’d gladly give up my abortion rights and my daughter’s for my son not to have to go to war. We’ll have peace with Trump.” www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Guess we all have our line in the sand? 🙅‍♀️(Trying to find my hotdog costume)

No cheating, moat recent picture of your pet (this morning)

We haven't seen an Indiana squad turn back an Alabama offense this decisively since Antietam

Happy New Year! We love sharing these pro-book posters from the Works Projects Administration Poster Collection in the Library's Prints and Photographs Division. Of the 2,000 WPA posters known to exist, the Library of Congress's collection of more than 900 is the largest.

Our Solar System is orbiting the center of our Galaxy at about 220 km/s so in 2025 we collectively traveled something like 7 billion kilometers across the Milky Way. Once in a while, when you have a moment, it’s worthwhile to take a look around, see where you are, and appreciate how far you’ve come.

Is . . . is this for real . . .

Some of us studied Social Military History (the connections between war/the military and society). It's a two-way street, buddy, they inform each other.

Christmas movie take (compliemtary), Philadelphia mentioned!

"Kavanaugh Stop" went from a skeet on here to Bluesky meme to crosspollinating over on X to Brett Kavanaugh's burner account seeing it there to a whiny defensive footnote about it in a decision by the Supreme Court of the United States. Juice.

if you don't play or follow golf (or just don't get why so many people love it) this probably isn't on your radar but it should be understood as both a naked land grab and an attack on a part of DC's black history

Welcome to the party, pal
