In brief, if you look at this New Yorker cover and think “that’s right,” I distrust your takes and view you as courting dishonor

Fall on Me

"Pat, why do you carry that ridiculous 600mm lens on long hikes?" Buddy, I can see mountains reflected in the eyes of a trailside pika.

I’ll admit to being a crank (not as much as I was in my 20s) when it comes to rebranding (esp. when the change is towards minimalism) but outside my bias I agree, there was no point to a logo change here

nice

This is literally impossible, unfeasible and in the end would not even guarantee GOP victory in any way and posting is is just doom clout farming.

Watch Out!

panic is a type of compliance in advance

I drove an hour east to get my first jab and took a long, scenic detour through the Driftless Region to celebrate

Second this advice. Including the pandemic slowdown, it took me 2.5 years from getting my library degree to land a full time job. And the resume was what I spent the least time on once I had a good one for spamming

Below is a bad take

I am sick and tired of people engagement farming by claiming dedicated, hard-working civil servants who are being screwed over by Congress are somehow in the bag for Trump because there aren’t enough of them to do the work in the best possible way. Y’all should be ashamed of yourselves.

Merrick Garland you dumb bitch

the 2028 line is "these pigfuckers wrecked our country and we're going to fix it" and I don't think you need a long list of specifics really at the campaign stage

Carpentry but focused around regenerative forestry and ecosystem repair

Journalism is a fucking mess, man. The 4th pillar really is just gone at this point, aren't they?

there are a lot of kids on medicaid in rural areas who had no say in this, and they’re going to suffer. i don’t think you need to cosign the suffering of rural america with all this stuff (even though i get the urge), but you also can’t stop it, it’s coming either way now.

politics do not stop happening just because republicans think they can stop them

ice cold water is so good

And hopefully they bothered to tell, like, Israel at the bare minimum, which is something I am very much in doubt of. Unilateral launch of a military strike against a nation we aren't officially at war with, without even bothering to call a press conference, is obscene.

I know this can sound kind of silly at a time like this, but doing a war without congressional authorization is ample grounds for impeachment

HAPPENING NOW: A HUGE line of protesters march through the streets of Seattle, Washington for a “No Kings Day” protest against Donald Trump (Video: FOX 13 Seattle)

I love you Seattle. #abolishice #nokings

@vornietom.bsky.social needs to know that to signal tonight’s Elvis Costello concert was over, the venue played “Ellie the Elephant”

RIP big dog

Between them, Brian Wilson and Sly Stone account for a hefty percentage of the greatest American songs of the greatest decade in popular music history. This week is a bit much on all counts

I suspect that for a lot of people who feel like "cities are burning", these places exist not as geography but as a conceptual location where Bad People and Chaos thrive. The actual place that is LA (or Portland or Minneapolis or Chicago) is immaterial. It's Sodom, the rest is details.

We need to build some real social stigma around being afraid of cities. You don't have to like them or live there, but a politics built this strongly around watching TV and going "ewww" is embarrassing, and people should be embarrassed by it. It's like "fear of werewolves" being your top issue.

Nothing Doing no. 54

At this point we need another Capitol in LA or something to cycle senators through and emphasize the “United States” portion of the Senator role

Even if it takes a constitutional amendment, a Poster can never be allowed to hold significant power again

the chehalis tribe figured out how to finally solve the problem of the uncle sam billboard that’s displayed john birch society messages for 60 years on i-5: they bought it www.chronline.com/stories/uncl...

It’s always a good time of day to listen to “In A Silent Way”

I knew a guy in high school who joined our school’s speech/debate team solely cause people had to listen to him talk in meets and he didn’t care what the topic was. He would also deliberately go over time and disqualify himself cause he didn’t give a shit about the completion aspect

I wonder if consumer tech was the last frontier for this generation of SV dominance cause the future of tech efficiency as a whole seems to be uncorking more and more philosophical debates than financial gain opportunities

I thought about this movie a lot when I saw it in high school

Add this to your list of demands to members of Congress! (Read Ryan's full thread for more context about what's actually ending and what seems vulnerable to future cuts)

Many things are too big to lie about and this is one of them
