So What's Going on With the "Wuthering Heights" (2026) Costumes? youtu.be/HC2inchSVKM?...

In the 1980s in Hollywood (then a dangerous place), I stood in line for 2 hours to get #BillyIdol to sign a #GenerationX album. He was so drunk/high that it took 3 ppl to hold him up. I’m amazed that he’s still going at 70. Older punks are redefining “aging.” www.nytimes.com/2026/02/19/a...

Miriam Rothschild helped decriminalize homosexuality in England, was a codebreaker with Alan Turing, studied fleas and butterflies , gave tremendous amounts to schizophrenia research and was a pioneering advocate of art therapy. She’s cool as fuck.

never change, johnny weir. never change.

Husband's weekend project, putting panelling up to enclose this new door. This "room" was a janky DIY add-on we have slowly, Ship of Theseus like, replaced bit by bit. It'll never have heat or AC but it's good place to stash exercise stuff, cat stuff, and heartier plants.

I have this! Excited to read about progress....

If "the right" was permitted to screen and select their own population to form their own nation they would *still* devolve into civil war because getting along is not something they do. Self hatred is the explanation. It starts at home and radiates outward.

Turns out the “brief period” equaled 17 whole minutes.

Consent calendar just passed and I am now officially endorsed by the California Democratic Party! Thank you to all the delegates and everyone involved in the process - it’s not always sexy work, but it’s all important for a functioning democracy. Onwards to the primary!

Look, it's just a game. But Canada should be keeping lists of all the staffers and government folks involved with this sort of dumb taunting and permanently bar them from entry. We've all accepted Trump is untouchable for the duration, but we can impose costs and friction on the bottom feeders.

The eventual recovery from The trump Dark Ages will see euphemisms & such evolve similar to the Black Death’s “God Bless You” or “Ring around the Rosies”. What will be the likely remnants from this time? “May ICE never find you” as a wedding toast? “May your Federal grant resurrect” for good luck?

I don't think I could casually lose teeth in a game, but that's just me.

The next Urbanism Book Club meetup will be Fri, 2/27 @ 5 PM @redemmas.org We’ll be reading Cities Made Differently by David Graeber and Nina Dubrovsky, a visually-rich book that invites you to reconsider cities through the lens of anthropology, literature, and play: mitpress.mit.edu/978026254933...

By the way, a reminder on Jack Hughes, since the grifters are already trying to hijack his postgame interview www.vogue.com/article/meet...

He thought about it.

I voted for trump 7 times (legally, and it’s Illegal for u to ask me how) but I think he’s finally lost me by taking away my TSA PreCheck. I will now have no choice but to consider voting for Elon Musks FREEDOM PARTY in this next election, or maybe Trump imprisons Sabrina Carpenter and wins me back

“In 2025, sponsored research by faculty generated more than $4.8 billion. Compared to that sum, donors contribute a pittance: even the profligate Mr. Bloomberg doesn’t come close. And yet for some reason it’s the donors rather than the faculty who sit on the board and make the big decisions.”

Weekend project #2: re-covering the worn through soles of my pink pig slippers with non-skid fabric! I have been avoiding wearing these on the stairs :(

People used to use them to help sweep up dust iirc

In 1993, Octavia E. Butler wrote a defense of public libraries. “Public libraries in particular are the open universities of America. They're free; they're accessible to everyone… I'm a writer at least partly because I had access to public libraries.“

Ten glorious years of DJR being our pre-eminent DJT chronicler....

This absolutely rules on so many levels

I need to check this out

I will be haunted by the figure 38% the rest of my life. Again. I said 40% of people are "bad" and caught shit for it. 38% of US approves of.....you name it.

the wealthiest americans love creating a walkable community to go shopping in and eat in on vacation and surround it with like soviet style housing blocks to sleep in on vacation but absolutely nobody is allowed to live there

Or the state bombs the neighborhood

We aren't allowed nice things until we make Daddy Trump feel beloved (impossible)

A question I ask all the time, am 58.

Yes, just eggrolls for dinner! And why not, it was ground turkey, veggies, and a carb.

My coworker just suggested we "set a trap" for the guy who keeps stealing lunches from the break room fridge. Brother you are Tom and Jerry brained. We are going to HR.

That's why you have kids. To make them stand at the top of the parking spot and direct you with "pull forward, you still have room" gestures, until they switch to the frantic "Stop! Please don't kill me!" wave OR just past not seeing fingertips. Last move can take practice, cpl kids, to perfect

Finding out that the Danes just did a medevac of a US soldier explains this completely.

London’s “worst mass eviction in recent history” is underway; hundreds of households across London told to get out of their homes this week by the same landlord, ahead of the renters rights act. The landlord? Billionaire Asif Aziz’s Criterion Capital. www.londoncentric.media/p/asif-aziz-...

My project for the day was making eggrolls

The level of anger normal Minnesota people have at their elected representatives is palpable. It's not about party, but the perceived failure of local/state electeds to do anything of substance to protect residents who pay their taxes and get left facing off alone against masked, armed men.

Amazon is paying $1.04 billion less in taxes this year than last, meaning the $40 million bribe Bezos paid via the Melania documentary had a 2600% return on investment.

“I know Andrew is a good man who’s been treated terribly, but you remember when we learned a few minutes ago that England and the United States are two different countries?” said Senior Advisor Gerald Donovan

among my favorite French Revolution details: the King's cousin, the Duke of Orleans, was so shook by the events of the revolution that he not only voted to execute his cousin but legally changed his name to Equality Phil.

Fun little paper we published last month got picked up by earth.com. The author got it mostly right. There was no press release so he seemed to go above and beyond and read the paper and some citations in it and used references. Nice work. #scicomm 🧪 www.earth.com/news/antarct...

Why have the medals at the Olympics kept breaking? My colleague Eric Sullivan dug into the science for @sciam.bsky.social 🧪

In general it's bad for young adults to be heavy cannabis users because it can mess with brain development and, potentially increase risk for certain mental health conditions but it is not a direct cause of those conditions. 🌱 🧪 🩺 Lay off the weed until your early 20s should be the message.
