The Arlington National Cemetery Memorial apparently has deleted references and information on everyone interred there who wasn’t a white straight man from their database - attempting to sweep their existence under the rug. My thoughts on this obscenity cannot legally be shared on this platform.

We asked Edmund de Waal, Sir Kazuo Ishiguro, Jamz Supernova and Phil Wang for their three must-have books. No notes. 📚

Sure why not

We hear people are discussing the best 100 books again... not knowing that Reactor has already delivered the final word on this subject #Booksky

if you believe that ancient/nonwhite people couldn’t do impressive collective feats without aliens you are well on your way to being fash. I truly believe this.

Councillor who said role 'dull and boring' resigns

Many people have a vested interest in pretending otherwise, but the US research university is globally dominant to an almost unbelievable degree. The typical state university is a football team stapled to a R&D lab with a budget bigger than the entire nation of Belgium.

Never follow a hippie to a second ideology.

Right-wing businessmen will be contemptuous of humanities and then say shit like "what if words influenced thoughts?" Left-wing writers will be contemptuous of economics and then say shit like "it appears there is a relationship between price and demand"

I would really like a journalist to ask one of these people point blank if they think Trump is Christ returned.

Many people are in denial about the saliency of climate change politics to voters. Just because something is very important doesn't mean people will vote for it *because* it is important. They must be given other reasons.

do not love that we are living through a thermostatic enshitification ratchet and have to hope for a fundamental change in preferences of a critical mass of the electorate, mostly because the institutions used to mobilize and shape our priors generaitons' of mass politics have up and died

“Relying on the advance rulings of the court, and regarding a constitutional amendment authorized by the people of VA as nonjusticiable, I have directed the Secretary of State to conduct the primary elections for 2026 under the constitutional maps. Yrs. Etc. Gov Spanberger Sic semper tyrannis”

State legislatures? Gerrymandered. The House? Gerrymandered. The Senate? Malapportioned. The presidency? Malapportioned. The courts? Largely beyond any kind of popular control. Governorships are still okay, I guess, but that's it. And now we're extinguishing black representation again

AI bubble watch. BofA Hartnett

oh noooo it sure would be a shame if roughly 121,000 people living a predominantly conservative area refused to be counted in the census and accidentally eliminated a conservative electoral riding

It's just a platonic bombing of seaports.

Somewhere out there is a person who’s for Puerto Rican statehood and DC independence and that’s my President.

One of the many ways that paying attention to politics makes you feel like you're going insane is that it's hugely controversial to claim that the most recent SCOTUS decision was entirely about helping Republicans win elections, and meanwhile the President keeps screaming it at the top of his lungs.

i don't understand how Old Spice's marketing team landed on this ad for their Super Mario Galaxy Movie tie-in where an astronaut smells a stick of deodorant, thinks about Mario, and then kills himself. i don't understand how that's not a joke, it's exactly what happens in the ad
