aren't these guys supposed to be the normie whisperers

New Past Lives: The Princess of Xiaohe. Nearly 4,000 years ago, a young woman was buried in the sands of western China's Tarim Basin. Her mummy is almost perfectly preserved, a stunning window into a completely lost time and place in the human story. Listen here: pod.link/1852618120/e...

However much you hate centrists, it's not enough.

Racism killed Darwin, a mutant that adapts and can’t die.

Suozzi wants you to know that his loyalty is to corporations. Today at WelcomeFest, he is "launching a pledge for their party's candidates they hope will act as a rallying cry for centrists, calling for a 'politics of persuasion over purity' and declaring that 'we are capitalist, not socialist.'"

GOTAN PROJECT : Contrarian voting this. 1. I own it and got very into them at the time, thanks to my Argie friend 2. It feels a little timeless - could still be background music at a restaurant and not feel musty.

Today is Sextidi the 16th of Prairial in the year 234. Prairial is the month of meadows. Today we celebrate carnations.#JacobinDay More information on carnations

”gimme some more” really is the pinnacle of busta music videos though youtu.be/un3NkWnHl9Q?...

Even this is a charming tidbit because he got to meet Ewan McGregor and Hayden Christensen (and Rosario Dawson) a few years ago, which gave the world this wonderful photo bsky.app/profile/cpto...

Thank you to NYPD’s 6th Precinct, NYU & DA Bragg’s office for identifying and holding accountable the perpetrator who darkened graduation for NYU’s Jewish families. We will never tolerate such sickening displays of antisemitism and hate.

*Arkham Asylum goon seeing Charli XCX at the 2024 Grammys* "it's da freakin brat!"

Until the outside returns to Defund NYPD as a core demand, this will keep happening. Ultimately, it's up to our ecosystem of Left orgs that are focused on governing power to construct what we've never built before: an organized majority of voters whom City Hall is more afraid of than the NYPD.

I brought @ocasio-cortez.house.gov tortillas from H-E-B. They make people feel better after a tough night, and that's what the Spurs are going to give Knicks fans tonight. Go Spurs go!

Scott Pelley was ousted from CBS News in the exact manner Bari Weiss *thinks* she was ousted from NYT

New from me: He swiped right. She was recording everything. A Democratic aide to then-Gov. Phil Murphy thought he met his “forever person.” She was undercover. www.politico.com/news/2026/06...

(Austin Powers game tutorial level) Austin: Wait a tick. When’s the last time I opened my shag bag? Basil: Good thinking, Austin! Why not press ⭕️ and check your inventory? Austin: I do pride myself in pressing the right buttons, don’t I? YEAH, BABY.

Only 34% of Black Mainers are able to make ends meet, in case you’re interested in understanding what kinds of calculations people are having to do about voting. wgme.com/news/local/r...

Wow enrollment is up at CUNY and SUNY where there’s free tuition programs whodathunk

The Gotan Project album might be the best I've discovered through this whole exercise. The Blueprint featured one of the most famous diss track missteps in history, and multiple examples of the album artist getting eaten alive by the feature artists. I'm not voting for a Tae Bo ho today.

i mean, this is what is obviously coming

"We want to send fighters to Washington stand up to this administration and to imagine our future beyond it." More from Mornings with @thekidmero.bsky.social on HOT 97 yesterday.

LA, I am so, so sorry you guys are getting a Harris-Trump redux instead of a hot socialist who posts good.

“I tell you hwæt!” - hillbilly Beowulf

the one thing these people cannot countenance is being Accurately Described. all of this is happening because the internet provided a means for people to Accurately Describe them to their faces. and they lost their fucking minds

a bread box? you mean a yeast infection?

roberts and alito have concocted a jurisprudence in which constitutional amendments explicitly ratified to secure the right of black americans to vote now restrain congress from securing the right of black americans to vote.

I’ve watched this 500x

Well, about that:

a few months ago I happened to see this absolutely fucking incredible 60 Minutes piece where scott pelley hiked for days to get inside the earth’s largest known cave in vietnam and I was so gobsmacked I made my kids watch it; you should also watch it because it rules m.youtube.com/watch?v=BtfW...

I get it already, I'm old.

muwahahaha

Who amongst hasn't pursued a queer in the arts?!? 🤷

This is AMAZING. And only a slight let down for those of us who think Valdez is a mega cutie besides being the best candidate

It would be hilarious if they threw him a curveball with the alternate MoCA form

This is very funny way for the whole country to find out how ruthlessly bored everyone is in Maine.

Here is my full 30 minute interview with Victor Marx: youtu.be/KywOV9EkNFg

ummm????

this new restaurant is an all-day ode to american classics with a modern twist? they have shareables?? AND handhelds???

the current director of national intelligence is a guy who two years ago received a trophy declaring he “Fucks Only The Young” at an (oddly dildo focused) event he organized dedicated to the conspiracy that Bed Bath and Beyond never actually went bankrupt

Neither of these are really my thing, but it amused me deeply that Life Without Buildings sounds like half a post punk band and has half a Talking Heads title for a name. I'll give it to Firewater for the grooves and to avoid the pacman, but I almost wish the bands had traded singers.
