anyone else going to howl at the moon tonight at the blue bridge on the bayou? 8pm.

"Popular Information contacted Polymarket and asked which people directly affected by the attacks had spoken with the company and why prediction markets could provide them with 'the answers they needed.'” popular.info/p/the-casino...

A combat-unit commander told non-commissioned officers at a briefing Monday that the Iran war is part of God’s plan & that Donald Trump was “anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran to cause Armageddon & mark his return to Earth,” according to a complaint by a non-commissioned officer.

What's scary about this story is the surveillance it hints at. This trans woman had changed her name, legally, but chose not to change her gender marker. She was apparently flagged in the DMV system as trans and her license was invalidated under a law that supposedly only concerned gender markers.

today, 4pm. 550 Poydras. not the final flyer, as more orgs are signing on to endorse, but wanted to get the word out. #nolasky #nolatwitter

so fucked up.

Why are there always major intersection traffic lights out in this city?! Lights are out at the intersection of Norman C Frances and Tulane. Be careful! #nolasky

Definitely having one of those New Orleans is a Third World country kind of days, what with the big water main break Uptown and traffic all fucked up everywhere because of it and now back in Midcity the traffic light is out at Canal and Carrollton and nobody knows how to do a four-way stop. Ugh.

man, it is really starting to smell ripe in the neighborhoods around the parade route uptown where the garbage hasn’t been picked up yet.

DANCING HEADS!!!!! #rexcomus

WHERE ARE THE HEADS?! #rexcomus

Wow it straight up looks like 2011 #nolatwitter out here and I love it! #rexcomus

I don't know if a page named Smallpage is better or worse than the guy we had last year with the last name Bright White. #RexComus

Origin story of #rexcomus: a TP reporter, Daniele Dreilinger, was assigned to cover it on social media by the new regime at the paper and basically made fun of it on Twitter. Others joined in. One year the hashtag trended NATIONALLY.

Errol had to quickly explain why there were so many black folk in line and it got a surprising "Ohhh" out of Peggy. "oh they're event planners for the Illinois club. 'Ohhhhhhhhh" 🤣🤣🤣 #rexcomus

I haven’t been paying attention. How many people of color are we up to? #rexcomus

We need a third app where Bluesky and Twitter can come together and watch #RexComus together as we did in the old days. Meeting of the balls + meeting of the text-based social media apps

Totally just saw a finger gun! #rexcomus

Which band member is gonna swing? And do we get a piccolo solo? #RexComus

Well, that has to be the first time that sanitation workers were mentioned during #rexcomus.

lol

Classic #RexComus moment: Ex-Rex King talking about his chickens

Happy Mardi Gras #nolatwitter #nolasky! Get your suit on and get out in those streets!

This. Every year. I hate that krewe and don’t go out Friday night because of it.

According to eyewitnesses, the riders were removed for throwing at someone with a "Fuck ICE" sign. But according to the police they were throwing at a "federal agent" So which is it? Riders attacking ICE or attacking anti-ICE signage? www.wwltv.com/article/news...

Why am I hearing a marching band in midcity right now? There are no parades in midcity today. (oh how I love New Orleans at Mardi Gras time.)

Here's what I was talking about. Just a block or so off of St. Charles. Guess the police were too busy pulling people off of floats because a yo-yo hit their car or something www.wwltv.com/article/ente...

have never seen popular public opinion shift so fast about a surveillance product than the fallout from ring's super bowl "search party" ad. they'll teach this in advertising courses one day. chef's kiss baby www.404media.co/with-ring-am...

Barkus was so hot and sweaty! And I was walking a rescue dog for Zeus’ who was terrified of the drums from the marching/brass bands who sandwiched us. She tried to bolt initially; we put her in a wagon which worked for a while. Eventually she had to be carried, poor baby. Somebody adopt this baby!

Carrollton stopped before Phillip. NOPD surrounding a float.

we have the right to film the police. also, could he be more condescending?

assaulting journalists on the street trying to do their jobs, raiding journalists' homes and confiscating their computers and notes, arresting them for covering protests - i fear what comes next for my journalist friends. #thisiswhatfascismlookslike
