An amazing performance of Berghain by Rosalía featuring Björk, my favorite song from 2025, live at the BRIT Awards a few weeks ago. It adds a very catchy electronic dance remix at the end. I love it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=7fyu...

if think tanks acknowledge what trumpism is (incoherent and vibes-based), they have to face their own crisis of relevance as institutions that pump out policy papers and provide advice to movers and shakers. pretending there's some policy process that makes sense is a way to avoid grappling w this

TODIL where the sounds in the intro to “In the Meantime” came from, very cool

Rubio has reached peak cringe: no cringier moment has ever existed in the history of the universe.

Did I hear this correctly? Did he just say that every day "the Department of War lets the drummer get wicked" over Iran? Did this unbelievable dork just quote Public Fucking Enemy in defense of their war on Iran?

He's trying to convince people that all his awful White House decorations are real gold and not gold-painted baubles from Home Depot.

"All of a sudden it was dawn, and the sun rose in the east, there was daylight and everything. Everybody was shocked, including us."

I took this photo for @coreyryung.bsky.social because I believe this is the apex of this contest.

A print of this painting hangs above my headboard. One of my favorites.

I've previously contended that Mackenzie Davis should be in everything and, well ... damn that monkey paw!

57 of my fellow students were arrested, academically disciplined, and barred from campus 2 weeks before finals. And then the visas of some of those students were quietly revoked. And then the DEI office was killed. And then we watched our mentors’ grants evaporate over “woke”.

If you want to know what a real free speech chilling effect looks like, this is it.

Two years ago, campus protesters were expelled, arrested, and villified. Now, the Trump administration is in charge and has a heightened focused on students at universities. Given that many were also international students and students of color who could be targeted by ICE, it's a genuine mystery.

To the second place vote getter go the spoils.

Based on the lack of updates, I must conclude that everyone in Greenland is now dead because the US did not send help in time to treat the sickness that plagued the country.

It's been a month since Trump said "we are going to send a great hospital boat to Greenland to take care of the many people who are sick, and not being taken care of there." Any update?

Is it a giant wooden horse

America is so numb to Trump's awfulness that when he jokes with the Secretary of Defense about the fun of war and blowing things up, it won't even be a news story. Sigh.

What present did Iran send? Wrong answers only (which means all answers because Iran didn't really send anything). Greenland

Sounds like they're already pretty unified, Doug.

KU lacks a formal mechanism for a no-confidence vote. So, it has to be done through an informal poll. The administration's assertion that the poll was sent to select recipients is entirely unsupported. ~80% of ~2,000 respondents voted "no confidence."

Thinking about this talk I heard for no particular reason today. www.chronicle.com/article/u-of...

Turns out Donald Trump voted by mail. Again. It's almost like mail-in voting is safe, secure and makes voting easier. 🤔

Only thing missing “from Florida”…

Today's underrated song is "Woman King" by Iron & Wine. I'm not sure what percussion instrument opens the song, but it is mesmerizing, especially with the rhythm of the lyrics. The abstract imagery in the song is amazing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=PEj4...

Man, if I were the Senate Minority leader this is all I'd be talking about. You're paying higher prices for everything so Trump and his cronies can play a rigged game for billions.

"The Justice Department is increasingly telling judges it can’t defend ICE’s actions..." www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

What's remarkable to me is how little belief the conservative Justices have in deterrence. Voting fraud is a crime, often carrying very significant penalties. Given the lack of documented voting-fraud-by-mail cases, shouldn't we conclude deterrence is working and no further action is needed?

Donald Quixote's tilting at windmills costs taxpayers a lot of $$$$.

Old enough to remember when Susan Estrich was Michael Dukakis's campaign manager and an impactful legal scholar on sexual violence ... before she started representing Roger Ailes and Leon Black, and became a Fox News regular.

Challenge: Courts stop using the Pinkerton Rule for a defendant's mens rea on the conspiracy charge - it only applies to vicarious liability for substantive offenses by co-conspirators. Difficulty: Apparently impossible. This is black-letter law stuff. Get it right.

If you had told me before the season that my undergrad (Iowa) and law school (UVA) alma maters would still be playing in the tournament after my current employer (KU), I would have said you were crazy.

Self subbed in Elmarko at the last second. St John's drove right at him and scored. Just an awful coaching decision.

Are we sure Elmarko Jackson knows which team he is on?

The defenders of Western Civilization are strangely uninterested in Western Civilization.

So, Milan Momcilovic (who is about to set the record for 3p% in a season) says "jellybean" in his head every time he shoots. Gonna try that with writing.

In 2015, KS prohibited food stamps from being used on jewelry and cruises despite no evidence they had been or could be used in such a manner.

Bluesky needs polls. Because I need to know: 1) Did any of you grow up understanding the chicken joke to be about the chicken wanting to die?; and 2) If you did, was it because people in your community routinely used "the other side" as a metaphor for death?
