It's not a demolition site it's a mass grave. It's not a demolition site it's a crime scene. It's not a demolition site its a homeland. It's not a demolition site it's Palestine. It's not a demolition site it's a genocide.

I love Chrystia Freeland's proposal that Canada should put tariffs on Teslas.

Great letter in today's Guardian. What sort of free speech is prevented by factchecking, Zuck?

Quisiera hacer un musical llamado “Louis Bernard” sobre el saqueo colonial de Francia en Polinesia, con un gran final explosivo: bombas atómicas devastando Mururora, Fangataufa y otras islas. Salvo un par de actores indígenas Ma’ohi, el resto del elenco será Mexicano. La música será de Lila Downs.

Delighted to announce that @SFMOMA just acquired "Sphere Packing: Bach". My heartfelt gratitude to curator Rudolf Frieling, their team and mine. The piece is a spherical room with 1,128 loudspeakers each of which plays a different composition by JS Bach.
