Just looking up 2 of these slang terms is more incel contact than I ever want for at least the rest of 2026.

It is jarring to get a newsletter email from Helen Rosner on the exclusive 86 restaurant adjacent to an email from Timothy Snyder on Ukraine’s winter.

Today I went out and I didn’t wrap my head closely enough and it was painful. But I got got good dim sum from Rol San though so it was worth t.

Good thread. Again, this is a cybernetic problem.

The @nytimes.com could never

This may be my favourite Colville. Everything from the foreshortening to the danger of the blade to the bird like resemblance of the woman’s body to the muted winter palate to the complex composition of the environment makes it great.

"Today, it’s America that poses a threat to our freedom and democracy. Not China. Not Russia. America."

Winter is getting to me, so I am keeping an eye on this days.to/spring

PLUSH PIEROGI! Want! :)

This is good

The Times just CAN NOT call him racist, even though he is and has been since at least the 80s.

Agreed. I love pocket books. They need to make a comeback.

I often use the word amazing too lightly, but this poster truly is amazing.

May we all get such great feedback at work today. :)

If you cook any pork rosemary and smashed garlic in diced tomatoes and olive oil for 30-60 minutes you are bound to have a great sauce to toss pasta in.

Oh yay we are drawing international attention

This was written for me.

I wonder if they account for women I know who put it on and went to bed just to bump it up in numbers :)

"Hunger is the best spice."

Also remarkable.

It's remarkable that the lite version of lite.cbc.ca has this warning: "Audio playback requires significantly more data usage (about 25 MB / hour) than loading CBC Lite story pages." because there's likely people in some communities that still have this limitation.

This is a fascinating book.

Layoffs are terrible at the best of times, but this is especially egregious.

My lukewarm take is that for Bezos, WaPo is Tired and Blue Origin is Wired and he is acting accordingly.

The CBC has a webcam of St. John's Nfld and it's quite nice www.youtube.com/watch?v=VweS...

It's striking to me to see this in comparison to what is happening at the Washington Post.

A goddess who could summon crustaceans from the deep, leaping directly into her hands

It is crazy that this has 1 or 2 people supporting it! Which brings us back once again this …

I get people’s skepticism about AI but I saw an anti AI influencer on Instagram today and it reminded me more of someone from the MAHA movement than anything useful. Just playing off people’s fears of AI for Likes.

I don’t understand why colleagues stay silent when this happens.

Not until I am travelling on an actual LRT vehicle will I believe it.

We are never getting an apology never mind a party 🙃

Whoa. This seems like a big deal

The Mad King is really a cartoon villain as well.

Well said.

What will all those 2nd Amendment rights folks who like to carry ARs into public establishments do about this? Probably nothing.

Well said and well done. Delivery folks are an exploited class of workers who deserve better.

Decentralization is coming. Until we get all issues associated with decentralization (security exposures, lack of standards, loss of interest in maintaining IT Locally, etc)

Like he preserved parts of Bonwit Teller www.forbes.com/sites/michae...

lol!

This is pretty insane

Gonna beg media not to just repeat Trump's obviously bullshit framing in the headlines. Tell readers the truth in the headlines. Alternatives: "With Artists and Audience Fleeing, Trump Closes Kennedy Center Indefinitely" "Trump Says Kennedy Center Needs Renovation, Despite Recent $250M Renovation"

Oh the shark, has such teeth, dear And it shows them pearly white Just a question has I.C., dear And he keeps it out of sight (apologies to Blitzstein, Brecht)

I also think for some cooking is a chore, like laundry or cleaning the bathroom. Not something creative or rewarding but a form of necessary effort.

‘Melania’ Arrives With Strong Box Office Showing for a Documentary www.nytimes.com/2026/01/31/b... this piece is so bizarre I think the authors are stoned

reposting both for underlying insight and for solid use of "zugzwang"

Among other things I like that Le Paradis lets you enjoy your cocktail before they bring you food

This is well worth a read. Will it cheer you up? Alas, no. :) Gift link -> www.thestar.com/opinion/cont...
