"You never know when you are going to need go-go boots." -Things my students say directly to me.

Jessica Tarlov on the government shutdown involving DHS funding and The Save America Act. Trump's citizenship bill likely won't get passed. Republicans keep refusing to fund TSA.

Belonging isn’t for everyone.

NEW: President Trump makes four false claims in a 43-word post about Tina Peters. Peters is 70 (not 73), does not have cancer, was sentenced by a judge in Mesa County (not the Governor), and did not expose fraud in the 2020 presidential election.

I believe in @katmabu.bsky.social

Daniel Biss won tonight. He also sucks.

That was garbage. Delroy Lindo should have won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, and the way that trash just played out was disgusting.

My disdain for this fop is well documented. Add another sliver to the document. www.vulture.com/article/quen...

One of my top five favorite films. Maybe the only challenger is 2046.

Finally watched In the Mood for Love after meaning to for decades. Holy shit it’s utterly gorgeous. Every frame is stunning. Her dresses! Her eyeliner! Oh my god everything is so beautiful.

Well, gas is expensive, and food is expensive, and we’re doing a war nobody wants, but at least there are no jobs

It’s crazy to think how much money Fugazi left on the table by only charging $5 for tickets. One of the most boneheaded business decisions of all time 😂

Oh snapppp! Rev. Dr. Jamal Bryant at the memorial service for Rev. Jesse Jackson: "The service wouldn't have been this long if were able to go to the Capitol, but the Capitol is now only reserved for pedophiles and podcasters." 🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿🍿

Does this mean Markwayne Mullin has to shack up with Corey Lewandowski?

Montagues and Capulets.

some shit is about to go down

Of course the guy replacing Noem is named "Markwayne."

“I know- Han Solo, Empire Strikes Back” is my email signature. One of my seniors has made “Raaaaaaaaaagh -Chewbacca (1980)” his email signature. This job is hard, but not thankless.

Watching this press conference and certain Pete Hegseth sleeps with a Gaston plushy from “Beauty and the Beast.”

Took my honors class to Pease Park to research our project “Failure, the Troll, and the Art of Making Something Beautiful Anyway” Public art, community identity, environmental restoration and the role of “failure” in creative innovation. We had Tacodeli. twas a fine morning.

Smells like Götterdämmerung Syndrome this morning.

The reason we stopped pirating en masse is because they gave us cheap and convenient options to stream things. With all the mergers and price increases...why on earth wouldn't they expect us to pirate again???

I think we are missing a golden opportunity for the women's US hockey team to play the men's hockey team. The ratings would be hot, the merch would be lit, and I bet dollars to donuts the ladies would drag the boys all over the ice.

Marco Rubio is an expression all by himself. All of the Joint Chiefs of Staff is expression all by themselves.

Tonight, Donald J. Trump is reminding us how boring he is.

Fuck the men’s Olympic hockey team. They have marinated themselves in historic shame.

The Space Ghost, the Zorak, the Moltar, and the Brak

funnel cake should be called a spaghetti donut

Alysa Liu telling 60 Minutes “I love struggling, it makes me feel alive” is a legit revolutionary statement from a Bay Area native in a time when copious amounts of time and resources are being put toward convincing us to opt out of experiencing struggle, friction and self-actualization

There’s nothing sexier than a bicyclist obeying traffic laws. You stopped at a stop sign, but what you really stopped was my heart.

The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing people local newspaper reporters are rarified elites instead of ink-stained wretches driving their Honda Civic to a crime scene so you know don’t have to rely on Nextdoor and the police press release.

I can't get over this number: in 2007, there were 360,000 newspaper jobs. Now, there are 80,000. "My local paper sucked!" Sure. What sucks even more? The void. "I get all my news from the Guardian!" No, the Guardian doesn't report on your town council, your school board, local cops.

*Taylor Sheridan pulling a slot machine arm* "Ok, we got... Kurt Russell... as a... Fire Chief in... Paducah, Kentucky" Paramount Exec: Sure whatever, here's $40,000,000. All of our parents: Prairie of Flames is the best show on TV

The Supreme Court:

The video of RFK Jr. and Kid Rock working out together in a sauna is the Lynchian homage to "Heated Rivalry" I didn't know I needed.

New — This was projected on the US Institute of Peace building this evening ahead of the first meeting tomorrow of Trump’s farcically-named “Board of Peace.” Photo taken by person who was over there tonight. Unclear who’s behind the projection.

Letterman used to ridicule his bosses at NBC & CBS. Before that, Carson and Parr openly fought with network execs. Colbert is part of that tradition. But you know who never criticize their corporate overlords? Cable and Network TV news hosts. Never. Ever.

I’m giving up wine for Lent, which means I’m also giving up reading the news, watching the news, and listening to the news. Text me if the world ends before April 5th.

It’s no mistake Fat Tuesday comes after Half Off Burger Monday.

The thing that makes this extra funny to me is that I think the cat is about to say this is all moving too fast…

Perhaps I’m a silly goose, but I’m starting to believe that people are terrible drivers

“Heated Rivalry” but we replaced the hockey with curling…

Roses are red, violets are smelly, I'm gonna put this ice cream inside my ...stomach.

Iconic, era-defining photograph right here.

GM: Charisma check. Mamdani: [rolls natural 20] GM: that’s a d6 how did you Mamdani: [direct to camera] Did you know you can check out board games at your local public library? 😊

ONLY 364 MORE DAYS UNTIL THE DALLAS COWBOYS AREN’T IN THE SUPER BOWL AGAIN
