Thursday Picture. Girls in the Windows, 1960, by Ormond Gigli. Hearing the brownstones opposite his East 58th Street studio were to be demolished, he swung into action to secure permissions, models and even the Rolls Royce. The photograph was taken during a lunch break the day before demolition.

As someone with absolutely no military experience, I do not think it's the wisest idea to assemble all of your military leaders in the same place at the same time.

When your neighbor on the left is being dragged away by masked men and your neighbor on the right can't get an X-ray for their child, be sure to quickly explain that "both parties are the same" and whatnot.

I donāt think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make whatās happening now look like childās play. And people are disappearing.

"I think isolation is a big problem as you become wealthy. And itās just sort of this trope that, well, you get a big mansion and you go hang out with all these other rich people, and it just isolates you. I mean, even accidentally. [...] All I want is to own a house. Thatās all I want." ā J. Atwood
