I think this bag is fake. Hermes's flagship products are handsewn using a saddle stitch. A worker marks the leather using an awl and then threads two needles through from both sides. This results in a tight stitch with no holes between the stitches. The holes here suggest the bag was machine sewn.

This is the correct explanation of what happened tonight👇

Here’s the ruling, which is a public document freely available on the internet that should take any reporter about one minute to find and share widely: storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Russ Vought out the day the shutdown ends. Stephen Miller by February, March at latest.

Ah, yes. Exactly the way they talked about food prices when Joe Biden was president. A marvel of honesty and consistency.

A clarification

This is a very big deal. This is an incredibly segregated state with massive disparities in infrastructure across racism and economic lines and this is one step closer to ending that

Body cams apparently show Border Patrol agents joking about tossing tear gas at a nonviolent protest, with one agent saying "Hey, throw it [tear gas] for fun." Agents then tried to drive away, but there was apparently so much tear gas they were overcome, couldn't drive, and had to leave on foot.

Nvidia, the computing giant that became the world’s first $5 trillion company, is powering ICE's investigative division, according to federal records reviewed by The Intercept.

You don’t get to name your kid X Æ A-12 and then say “or whatever his name is” about anyone else.

sounds great

It’s been FIFTEEN YEARS and the media is still letting Republicans pretend they have some super-secret concept of a hidden plan to maybe consider a covert proposal that could theoretically be implemented in a hypothetical simulation of a Congress run by people who are not actually clowns.

Democrats are expected to provide think tank level policy proposals for every societal ill under the sun (fully paid for too, natch!!) while Republicans are just like "we'll figure something out" and the media nods along.🙃

someone invited people magazine to the kitchen and they brought their own knives

The good thing is that regardless of who wins tonight it isn't the Yankees.

If the clocks roll back due to daylight savings ending during game seven of the world series that unlocks an infinite inning overflow glitch

Honestly, this is when it's time for Fox to post a graphic listing the remaining pitchers for each squad and when each last pitched. (I want to understand how close we might be to Treinen or Kershaw appearing.)

A wild-eyed Christopher Lloyd explaining that the only way to close the inter-dimensional wormhole from the Cubs winning the World Series is to play another World Series in the "null hour" when clocks are turned back.

If the game hits 2am Eastern the score is reset to an hour before and everyone has to repeat exactly what they did to preserve the space time continuum, thems the rules

i'm sorry but that play at the plate had to be AI-generated

Again, this precise use case is why these systems exist-to proliferate people’s racist (transphobic, misogynistic…) imaginary at scale. This should not be seen as a “misuse” but rather the product being used exactly as intended.

You would be kicked out of any writer’s room in existence if you had the villains celebrating a Great Gatsby-themed party while taking away food benefits from millions of poor people.

This was $4.99 last year

Federal immigration officers are using chemical irritants to disperse protesters in ways that violate American policing norms and test the boundaries of use-of-force laws, video footage from Chicago shows.

Hey, remind me what happened after the Roaring 20s?

The way he rubs his inhumanity in Americans” face never ceases to stun me. He’s illegally refusing to pay food stamp benefits… …while he throws a ridiculously over the top Gatsby party for his right wing millionaire and corporate friends.

The most French story since bumbling jewel thieves hit the Louvre.

sure, you might not be able to eat or go to the doctor, but check out how nice Trump's new marble shitter is

Kristi Noem is flat-out lying when she claims no U.S. citizen has been arrested in her violent crackdown. Do a web search on “immigration citizen arrested” and you’ll see. Here’s one of the many documented reports we found.

Someone must lose their job over this cover up.

Alrighty, ready to see something really cool? (and maybe a little nauseating) The evolution of Hurricane Melissa's mesovortices at peak strength.

America right now is an airplane that the crew is actively trying to dismantle mid-flight while at least half the passengers are sitting bare-knuckled just hoping we somehow eke out a survivable landing. (The other half are, inexplicably, rooting for the dismantling.)

Q: What did you mean when you said you're prepared to send 'more than the National Guard' into American cities? TRUMP: if I want to enact a certain act, I'd be allowed to do whatever I want. The courts wouldn't get involved. Nobody would. I could send Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines -anybody I want

Federal conspiracy charges because an ICE goon had to drive a little slower. What an absolute joke.

this is a really key point. the whole autopen bullshit is predicated on the idea that biden had no idea what was happening around him. but he talked about the pardons, in public, to the press! the evidence is right there!

Breaking on MSNBC: Two federal prosecutors have been placed on leave at the direction of the White House after filing a sentencing memo seeking 27 months in prison for a pardoned Jan. 6 rioter who brought illegal guns and ammunition to President Obama's house in 2023.

Rep. Rosa DeLauro: "On the food stamp issue, the money is there! Let them not get away with saying they can't do it. Their political will isn't there to feed the people who rely on the SNAP program which is the most effective anti-hunger program in the USA."
