Terrific commentary on the dreams of the young Right.

I feel fairly certain that Musk started work on day one with a signed pre-emptive presidential pardon already in hand

Outstanding to have this resource for all of the Home Movies lines that have entered everyday parlance in my household.

Please admire this absolute slop, printed on a small banner hanging outside of a restaurant in Wytheville, VA this evening. Somebody bought this, looked at it, thought "this is good," and hung it on the front of their establishment.

Brandis: Steffany, you smiled really big when he said 126 [new ADU] applications just recently. Steffany: It means that we're going to have more Chicagoans. I love Chicago. I think it's the greatest city in the world, and I want there to be more of us.

i think this is interestingly wrong about insults. the point of an insult is to be hurtful. if you want to make someone feel bad, you pick at their insecurities and things they are ashamed of, whether or not they're wrong. pointing out evil things that they're proud of having done isn't insulting.

currently fiddling with a little app that uses a LLM to make little reading quizzes. it keeps track of when you ask for hints with the vocab (readings/meanings), so it knows which words you sort of know, and uses that to generate passages using vocab that's about 80% familiar

Chicago's immigrant population from 1910 to 1940

building out my "fashion inspiration" pinterest but it's just Peter Norton book covers

the swag in this video is unreal

I went to a pro wrestling show in St. Paul and thought about the meaning of participation, among other things

This is an *excellent* post about the need for structural reform of the American constitutional order. Easiest important point to miss: the task is not just dreaming up reforms to fix systemic problems but rather "figur[ing] out how to create the conditions under which these problems can be fixed."

I’m at a comedy show?

currently at a stage in my Japanese learning where it seems like practicing reading katakana would help... not for learning the words but just for doing "phonics". anyway, i cobbled together an app to practice just that: see the katakana, type the katakana. tewhalen.github.io/katakana-quiz/

newest Nancy ends with one of the most important panels ever, what a gift from @cashbrowns.bsky.social

every time I listen to Neil Young, I'm like, "Guys, I think might be entering my Neil Young era"

You mustn’t be afraid to dream small

Based on the popular series of light novels – coming later this month to Crunchyroll!

double-entry bookkeeping kinda cool

THIS is the kind of pedantry I want from the internet: ‘12D Chess as a metaphor for a situation requiring great foresight [is] flawed… it is a more apt metaphor for a very lonely random walk punctuated by infrequent interactions with others you can easily dodge’ www.gilgamath.com/twelve_dimen...

I guess boycotting Harry Potter feels pretty trivial to me, because I'm an adult. if someone told me I shouldn't eat Gerber's baby food, I'd be like, that is no problem. I'm way ahead of you

Russian art critic, patron, and ballet impresario Serge Diaghilev was born #OnThisDay in 1872. This white silk bodice and tarlatan skirt with painted wings was designed by Giorgio de Chirico for a Sylphide in Le Bal, created for Diaghilev's Ballets Russes. V&A collection. #ballet #dress

cannot recommend this preview of tonight’s TJPW grand princess show enough. just insane levels of information and detail here dramaticddt.wordpress.com/2026/03/28/t...

OMG! It’s just two days away! There will be limited tickets at the door, so don’t risk it! Get tix today! Can’t wait to watch with you!

The distance between participating in a fun event and coordinating an event you hope will be fun is so, so vast.

geez louise i am bad at this game #slaythespire2 #sts

What walks on four legs in the morning, two legs at noon and when a president does it, it's not illegal?

"Where have the ethics of our leaders gone? Where has responsiveness to the demands of the people gone? Where has open debate in a non-oppressive, non-violent, non-punitive environment gone?" One could ask these questions as well.

A truly bullshit fascist dystopia where service doesn't even guarantee citizenship

Oh yeah? Then why am I making all these child support payments

Jinenger, an eccentric, energetic mountain yam, is an unofficial mascot for Shiroi City.

Even as we live through the terrible consequences of the fact that most power is held by willing members of the “fell for it again” coalition, I think it’s also important to remember that allowing our personal lives to be deformed by a desire to never get taken is also bad.

if everybody who reposted the andreza giant panda and mizuki image actually watched a tjpw match theyd be the biggest promotion in the world

Watch in Chicago with @chicagojoshinight.bsky.social ! www.eventbrite.com/e/tjpw-grand...

A Chicago-centric approach to this idea would probably coarsen the local truism "Good government is good politics and good politics is good government"

“The pathologies of Seeing Like a State … are very well documented. … The pathologies of Seeing Like an Idiot are worse understood… By and large, the abstractions of goonability carry sparser and less useful information than the abstractions of bureaucracy.”

This type of "journalism" that drives me batty - mostly because it looks sort of investigative, but is really just a fishing expedition. The story doesn't detail how they S-T found out about the administrative error, but I can guess... they're probably not broadly studying improper exemptions.

Still can’t get over the fact that my video editor removed this Northern Iowa joke from my video because it “doesn’t really even make sense” and “isn’t funny”

Ajw

if there's one conclusion that the study of both labor history and imperialism converge on, it is that the richest people in the world are happy to burn money on control, power, impunity. and the "everything is about profit" version of anti-capitalism does not survive serious contact with either

Thinking more Dan’s casually brilliant observation here: Don Quixote feels like the novel that most accurately presages the 2020s, because it’s about a guy inflicting his own delusional subjectivity on the world around him.
