Hmmm, not exactly a Philadelphia sports fan, or any kind of sports fan, or any kind of Philadelphian, but I guess I do have a soft spot for Gritty....

Kind of gives away the whole game that all the crypto ads this year have been replaced with gambling and AI ads.

What can you do with a history degree?

To be very clear, that lady in the NYT article is not making any money with her hundreds of AI slop books. She makes money by *convincing people* she makes money that way and getting them to pay her to teach them how to do it. It's an evolved MLM, and the NYT is helping market it.

One of these days, people will look back on these sports betting ads like we do on the ads for patent medicines featuring cocaine.

I'm at a Star Trek-themed production of The Abduction from the Seraglio. Half the audience is wearing Starfleet uniforms and Vulcan ears and there are animatronic Tribbles roaming the stage. This is going to be AMAZING. #lalife

TSA has been around longer than ICE and Republicans want to abolish it: www.newsnationnow.com/politics/abo...

I cannot stress this enough: court case after court case has ruled that AI does not count as an author when it comes to copyright. Any minute now an AI bot is gonna start reskinning and reselling AI slop and the "authors" will have zero legal recourse because they didn't actually author shit.

Mozilla will allow Firefox users to entirely block current and future generative AI features on the browser after user feedback revealed many who wanted an AI-free browser experience.

👀 What if I told you there was a hidden art gallery scattered across the country? What if I told you some of its treasures had vanished? What if I told you that I found them? A project three years in the making (🎁 gift link):

Molas, traditional textiles created by Guna (or Kuna) women, indigenous people of Panama and Colombia, which evolved from body painting #WomensArt

Fuck these fucking thieves

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

NEW: Since Sen. Tim Scott said the Obamas-as-apes video was "the most racist thing I’ve seen out of this White House," we thought we'd help him out by ranking some of this administration's most memorably racist moments. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-seco...

So, the March for Life appears to have brought Measles to DC. www.nbcwashington.com/news/health/...

Martin Weil, one of hundreds of journalists being let go at The Washington Post, has worked on local news there since 1965.

Not only did they bring a small private army, but among the waste of taxpayer money was BRINGING A FULL PLANE OF FOOD. To *Italy*.

Hang it in the Louvre

Nothing says "I've been brainwashed by conservative media" like bashing California.

"In cover letters accompanying the applications, the institute said it “particularly welcomes” projects that align with President Donald Trump’s vision for America." 1/ www.propublica.org/article/inst...

part of me still can't believe the East Wing was completely destroyed and there have been no negative consequences or reports on whether items inside were properly archived or not

Women's history tip: they used to sign themselves with their husband's initials and last name. Am I old for knowing this? Just ran into another scholarly article that couldn't identify an author named Mrs. L Smith because they went looking for women with L names.

So…has anybody thought about making cat toys that look like curling stones?

Are you wearing the The futuristic sleeping bag from the Olympics opening ceremonies? Yeah I am

I cannot sufficiently underline how despicable it is that the IOC has required Haitian Olympic athletes to remove an image representing the leader of the Haitian Revolution (against SLAVERY) from their uniforms.

The comments... 😂

I am SO pumped for two weeks of Gen Z superhumans trashing Trump on the world stage:

Sucks to be ruled by a senile klansman.

No excuses for this. It incensed me so much I wrote not one, but two articles linking to millions of free to use public domain images. world.hey.com/jordanacosta...

You probably woke up this morning and thought "did I miss my chance to buy dash cams for folks in Minneapolis because we live in actual hell?" And the answer is no, no you did not.

Donald Trump is a racist.

Support libraries!

AOC on the Kennedy Center: The renaming is completely illegitimate. All they did was screw some nameplates onto the building. That’s coming right off. Enjoy your name on there for a year or two, but that’s getting ripped right out.

Expedited deportation proceedings for a preschooler in a bunny hat www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

when i was a 16yo girl i thought i was an adult. coaching 12-17yo girls as a 28yo really hammered home how much i was wrong about being an adult at 16 and how obvious it is to actual adults that a 16yo is not an adult. if they say they cannot tell they are lying because they are a creep.

How it started / How it's going

the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

Skincare girlies, here is Peter Thomas Roth talking about victims. He used your well earned money to abuse.

Layoffs just hit their highest start-of-year total since January 2009 — the height of the Great Recession — according to data tracking firm Challenger. Meanwhile, CEO pay and corporate profits continue to hit record highs. Does anyone still believe that trickle-down tax cuts create jobs?

I am speechless. "The National Park Service has removed visitor brochures from the Medgar & Myrlie Evers Home National Monument. Among the anticipated changes? No longer calling his murderer a 'racist.'" 🗃️ mississippitoday.org/2026/02/05/m...

At this rate, there's a pretty good chance we get an American medalist wearing an "ICE OUT" pin on the stand, which could well be the thing that finally makes him kick it.

Jeff Bezos’s wealth has increased an average of $70 million every day of 2026, meaning that he could have offset The Post’s losses with what he’s made since Monday.
