For the next few days, every morning someone in America is waking up with ten fingers for the last time and doesn't know it.

The idea that Samantha Morton is The Odyssey standout so all the kids are gonna be watching Morvern Callar this summer. Hot Morvern Summer, they are calling it.

On this day: July 2, 1998. The Foxfire Coffee Lounge hosted its first show. It was located at 319 1st Ave N. Here is an oral history of the venue that appeared in City Pages.

*Michael Shannon, thunderously* Reichsmarschall Göring, did you know what was happening in the concentration camps? *Russell Crowe, calmly* No, I vas frozen "in zat cave"

MINIONS KILLED EPSTEIN

I would absolutely wear a NO MINIONS WORKED FOR HITLER T shirt

Somehow I have managed to learn the exact amount of Minions lore that I want to and not a single item more.

Sometimes I get emails where I can't even tell what the person wants. Are you selling me something? Do you want an ad? Do you want to write something? Do you want me to write something? Anyway! If someone doesn't know what your email is asking for, that's a bad email!

Part 3: bsky.app/profile/aedw... Part 4: 201. Monmouth poll of New Jersey diner patrons, 2007: "Many diner waitresses in New Jersey call their customers 'Hun'. Do you like when this happens to you, dislike it, don't care much either way, or doesn't this happen to you?" (Bonus: fav diner order?)

god I love the message of “second hand news” — I hate you so much, I will see you in HELL, let’s have sex in the ground right now

Had a great time talking with @usefulnoise.bsky.social about how circular Minneapolis history can be, why well intentioned liberals fail and why police reform is a false choice. Whenever a Defector & Racket linkup can happen is a good time racketmn.com/when-nice-fo...

Meanwhile, when I misspell someone's name I feel like I'm gonna puke.

From a former County Attorney running for governor of a state that has been targeted over and over by this federal administration, not saying a word on today's rulings is absolutely absurd. She should have had a statement prepped a week ago for each case.

2 more thoughts on birthright: 1. The movement to overturn Roe and Humphrey's Executor was built over decades. It took an enormous amount of effort to manufacture that sense of scholarly viability (see: Teles, Hollis-Brusky). The right got 5-4 on birthright with a sloppy last-minute scramble

Had a good talk with @justinellis.bsky.social about his new book, The Cruelty of Nice Folks, and racial politics in Minneapolis. He'll be reading at @moonpalacebooks.bsky.social tonight.

That's right.

me talking to magically resurrected founding father: and so sir you can see how the supreme court has become a deeply illegitimate institution that threatens the very republic you created founding father: there are *how many* papists on it???

In a sane world (an alt reality) today's dissents would sufficient to warrant Thomas, Gorsuch and Alito's impeachment and removal from office. If you defy the plain words, meaning, intent, history, precedent of a black letter constitutional injunction u are abusing your power and should be removed.

*nodding solemnly with full comprehension* yes, I see. there’s a special kind of kid who can’t play sports or go to the bathroom

"our generation is the new boomers" astronaut behind you pulls his gun

The Supreme Court today addressed one of the most pressing threats to the nation today: banning this high school sophomore from playing school sports with her friends 🫡🫠🙃

Why did Amazon name their airport store after a Da Share Zone meme

cool to live in age where you can legally bet on whether or not the president will blow up the Lincoln Memorial

"Werwulf" is how a dog film critic in a Far Side Comic would write the movie's name

DeVito v. Alito cage match for the soul of NJ.

stop arguing with the guy who loves to argue

The great American state fair being stupid Trump bullshit does legit make me sad, if I’m being honest. A lot of the 250 stuff does. This could have been a really cool and special thing and literally any normal president would have pulled it off.

Ann-Margret performing for the Shah of Iran in 1975

As someone with a day job in marketing, can confirm. IT'S ALL AN AD!!!!!!!!

remember when we had to take that Opie Anthony guy who sang "Rich Men of Richmond" seriously and he turned out to be the Trump era version of "Pac-Man Fever"?

profiled Wiki for @hearingthingsco.bsky.social. we spent the afternoon of Game 3 of the Knicks/Spurs Finals in Seward Park talking sobriety, Marty Supreme, the ever-changing NY indie rap scene, and Ancient History (exclusive 📸 by @thisisnotaphotograph.com!)

I'm not being paid residuals for my singing on Josie & the Pussycats bc I guess producers failed to provide paperwork to @sagaftra.org for my 20+ vocal sessions in summer 2000. SAG says I had 2 years (??) to report but I found out this year. Didn't hit my '25 earnings so l lose my health ins July1

guys the Jeff Bezos says humans drink too much water thing is satire. Is it good satire? Not really, though it got a bunch of you, and one of the aesthetic goals of satire is to trick the reader into missing the satire, so. But please guys. We are supposed to be the cool ones let’s be cool

v grateful that @pitchfork.com gave me the chance to write about some recordings i've loved for a long time - hope your weekend has some cookin, steamin, and relaxin (i guess workin too) pitchfork.com/reviews/albu...

I wrote about the astounding indictment of 15 people in Minnesota now charged with an alleged criminal conspiracy against ICE, and what federal prosecutors’ wild “who posted what on Signal when,” “who said what on the ‘Anarchist Speaking Tour’” claims are meant to do:

"You know, in Turkey, they have a phrase for someone who comes back from long odds. 'The lion will show you his teeth when it's time to eat.' And I thank my good friend, President Erdogan, for sharing that wisdom with me. Now as we all know, a knickerbocker is an ancient demon who steals children."

That doesn't mean right-wing propaganda inevitably makes habitual consumers more right-wing. But it did make me noticeably more bitter, cranky, cynical, and intolerant of disagreement — traits that I can see developing in a lot of X addicts in real time.
