Shuffleboard on ice is so fucking stupid. Are we really that staved for content. Darts on ice next?

I JUST PAID FOR ANOTHER FIVE GOD DAMN YEARS

I put my population/census density tool to draw on a map of NYC and find out how many people live inside the shape on my website

The problem is that their devotion to this anti-liberal struggle has led them to propagating positions that are increasingly untethered from what is happening on the Right, detached from political reality. It's sophistry in defense of a premise that is completely at odds with empirical evidence.

To them, the authoritarianism/fascism talk is solely intended to make people flock to the liberal cause; to expand power by using tyrannophobia as a way of entrenching liberal rule. It’s all just liberal dishonesty, self-exculpation, and self-aggrandizement that needs to be opposed aggressively.

There’s a corner of the anti-liberal Left who claim Liberals are using the “fascism” bogeyman as a way to distract from their own culpability; to discipline the Left into accepting a popular front under liberal leadership; to reinvigorate the liberal project by conjuring fears of the ultimate evil.

I just hit a quadruple parlay! Brooklyn Public library for the win!

🚨BREAKING NYSED has released preliminary 2025–2026 enrollment data Analysis to come!

Can stores like Patagonia afford prime retail in Manhattan? REI requires a large footprint too and couldn’t afford the rent. What I’m saying is, Patagonia and REI should move their NYC Flagships to Industry City/Sunset Park, which has good pricing on transit accessible warehouse sized retail.

Left, my story about how the right wing ex-Honduran president was given special treatment after he was pardoned for drug trafficking - and had his ICE detainer dropped. Right, a story about a man who spent 43 yrs in prison for a wrongful conviction & was deported once his convicted was overturned

In an interview, Christine Lagarde said she expects that completing her objectives as president of the European Central Bank will take until the end of her term. www.wsj.com/world/europe...

Streetsblog New York City is hiring a law enforcement reporter! More details: docs.google.com/document/d/1...

@cppilgram.bsky.social so did you block her or did she block you? She reposted the original but clarified it was from Tim. So it’d be extra anti-social to block you after you politely pushed back and she followed your advice.

So the ancient forms of racism isn’t really the appeal. But I am loving the vivid descriptions of 1949-1950 LA style of Mexicans wearing zoot suits and detectives wearing fancy big shouldered suits. I’d love to see a @dieworkwear.bsky.social thread on this era.

So is R Kelly gonna get pardoned? His charges are almost all federal.

I love that the version of the ebook the Big Nowhere that I checked out from the library, censors the N-word. If only because it makes all the other racisms really stand out. A Jew canoe joke FFS! Glad that didn’t get censored out.

She always looks so well put together in photos so I would’ve believed you if you told me the lady ICE shot up 5x and still survived was Charli xcx

Ben Simmons being Team World is such a difference maker.

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.

I’ve got a looksmaxxxxxing tip. Be mixed race. We’re objectively better looking. Sorry,not sorry. Revenge of the mutts. My eyes look like that naturally!!

I won’t do anything crazy (or illegal!) but I must be honest and admit that this shit is radicalizing me. Migrant family jails should not exist. The punishment for non-status cannot be detainment of children! They are being punished without due process! Outside of the law! For what! Children?!?

Apparently Utrecht's bus system is falling apart. Made the decision to switch from diesel to all electric. Failed to: - install enough chargers. - buy enough buses for added downtime. In Dutch tradition, 1/5 drivers are now burnt out from the stress from the change. youtube.com/shorts/h5rDK...

Mamdani and Crockett are only there to give legitimacy to Platner, who hasn’t earned any. It’s like flanking Melania with Clinton and Harris to talk about women with successful leadership careers.

As the late great professor Stephen Goldberg once told me, of his fellow Supreme Court Law Clerks, “and Doug smoked the least weed amongst all of us!”

It is a perversion of Sammy's Law to use it more to punish #bikenyc in Central Park than to lower speed limits on motor vehicles throughout the City - which is the real purpose of the law in order to save lives. Disgraceful that the City has failed to properly implement the law.

🧵 #Threads dead. The censorship on threads right now is so bad that as soon as you get a viral post criticizing the administration, they just freeze it or delete My crime: saying Trump is Putin’s puppet. Duh. I’m posting it here please click to annoy #Cuckerberg. www.threads.com/@tokyovice/p...

"the city will build a bike lane network through the Brooklyn neighborhoods of Midwood, Flatbush and East Flatbush, and add protected lanes to Dorchester and Cortelyou Roads in Ditmas Park, and along Brooklyn and Kingston Avenues, also in Brooklyn." !!!!!! www.nytimes.com/2026/02/12/n...

@jetlagthegame.bsky.social you have to do this

I hate that this is my music. I looked at one venue and saw it was eight miles from the centre of town with no public transport and... I don't even know how

Apple Liquid Glass is what happens when a junk food company sees sales declining and the only thing they can think of is to add more sugar.

I’ve never been an Adam Driver fan but I do want to see him playing Chris (Val Kilmer’s character) in Heat 2. He’s absolutely perfect for the role. Leo is supposedly in it. I like him for prequel Neil MacCauley. So does that mean Bale plays Vincent Hanna? Jenna Ortega for Neil’s 1/2 Mex daughter.

Which Le Carre should I read next? smiley’s people or A perfect Spy. I didn’t care for The Honourable Schoolboy.

A special team of prosecutors to investigate and indict ICE/CBP crimes is the moderate position.

Trump's tariffs are the single largest tax hike in the postwar and it was done unilaterally without consent of Congress. Its actually outrageous when you think about it, and conservatives and Republicans just like accept it because yadda yadda daddy Trump. Unreal.

In the US we talk a lot about how bad road design dictates bad transportation and land use outcomes. Something that Japan teaches is that the relationship can also work in reverse; spectacular public transport and maxed-out land use can achieve great cities *in spite of* badly overbuilt arterials.

Gangs of London is the most viral show that just doesn’t get any discourse in the US. They had a woman, fleeing her kidnappers, give birth and then chokes out one of her assailants with the placenta and umbilical cord. And it’s totally believable with that character. The show is nuts.

She only converted to Catholicism last year!?!?

Perhaps the coolest part of working at the US delegation to the UN was the annual soirée at the Ambassador’s residence at the Waldorf Astoria penthouse. They moved after 2012 because “the Chinese” bought the Hotel and it became a security risk. But man, that was the swankiest party.

James Van Der Beek was fucking Aces in Rules of Attraction. Maybe he had the Jason Priestly problem of being too “wholesome” but that was my favorite role of his. I used to watch Dawson’s Creek with my high school girlfriends. I’m sad. So young. And he had to beg for money at the end. Alas. RIP.

Detestable cunt, this fella. The sneering, entitled thundertwat.

But don’t you love it when you reach the 3/5-2/3 point of a novel and then you find yourself unable to put it down. It’s such a nice reward for the first 100 pages of set up (which can be slow at times).

mfw it's 40 degrees and sunny in chicago

71 people died from car violence last year in little old Hartford Connecticut?!?!? That’s crazy we tolerate so much unnecessary deaths.

I’m halfway through James Ellroy’s the Black Dahlia and I can’t believe Brian DePalma fucked up the movie when they had casted Josh Hartnett and Aaron Eckhart as Bliechert and Blanchard respectively. Reboot it as a prestige tv streamer please. They already did a graphic novel reboot with Fincher

Detain first, then sort it out. Uh, no. You cannot arrest a 14 year old child absent an individualized suspicion of wrong doing. They’re just bragging about how much they wipe their ass with our constitution. This is literally kidnapping.

@hunterw.bsky.social cmon Leeds!

Look at @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social entering his Bill Clinton phase.
