we can treat it like the Olympics and build multiple giant venues to host the events

This is insane. The stories coming out of these camps is gonna be the worst shit you've ever heard.

"As if the Ministry of Truth in George Orwell's 1984 now existed, with its motto "Ignorance is Strength," this Court is now asked to determine whether the federal govt has the power it claims to dissemble and disassemble historical truths when it has some domain over historical facts. It does not."

What a great photo of Brazilian alpine skier Lucas Pinheiro Braathen, the first South American to ever win a medal at the Winter Olympic Games.

something in how we saw everything as a HUMAN race changed with chattel slavery It DID change math, science, religion and reality and too many people want to keep it to "soft sciences" but it's not

Obviously this is who we have always been, that is a given... but the fact that people who did not know that are out here, protesting for the first time, in actual tears? They have lost complete control of this narrative, man.

Paul Giamatti in Star Trek: Starfleet Academy is playing the role of: KHAN Q DUKAT and THE JOKER

No. This is somewhere to be. This is all you have, but it's still something. Streets and sodium lights. The sky, the world. You're still alive.

You are never going to believe what @lollie.me and I got to do this past week. For @griffinmcelroy.bsky.social's Trial by Fieri series we had the privilege of putting the man himself into Majora's Mask.

I remember when I was a kid and my dad sat me down with his world atlas from the 80s and one had just bought as the first post-Soviet editions started coming out. It didn’t take long to become outdated, but it was neat going back to the old one every few years to see what else had changed.

YOU WENT TO PRINCETON YOU FASCIST MOMMAS BOY

NEW — I spoke with Rep. Delia Ramirez (@ramirez.house.gov) about her calling DHS leaders "inheritors of the Klan hood and the slave patrol," the prospect of one day seeing them behind bars, and what it's like to see the public [finally] embrace her long-held dream to abolish ICE. Our conversation:

There is no punishment imaginable that is sufficient for the horrific crimes being committed at Dilley and beyond. That said, I don’t want to see a single complicit person escape justice. Let this haunt them all. (+ ABOLISH ICE)

UNTRUTHFUL STATEMENTS

D.C. residents infamously suffer taxation without representation, but congressional Republicans are complicating even the taxation part of our second-class reality. It's the first time they've targeted local legislation setting tax policy for the city’s residents, @maustermuhle.bsky.social reports:

On Thanksgiving, the immigrant children held at the Dilley detention center gathered in the gym for what they thought was a holiday feast. The kids salivated over a spread of turkey, sandwiches, pastries and pies, a family told me. But the food wasn’t for detainees — it was for the staff.

Do you lack all empathy before you become a cop or after because this is fucking psychotic

No other city’s subway conductors are as eager to shut the doors on people as the assholes at WMATA

“Hmm, I’m looking to make a heavily gendered snotty comment about a female captain; maybe I should invoke a different female captain for cover!” Whether it’s actresses who play captains, or it’s lawyers or doctors or moms or writers or athletes, I can assure you: Women know this trick, dude.

It's important to remember that these types of visible demonstrations resisting historical erasure are especially important because of the long, painful (and continuous) history of efforts to purge LGBTQ+ people from public life. 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ 🍎

Best advertisement I’ve seen so far at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival

I’ve been increasingly off the non-work internet during the day and while it has been great for productivity, catching up on everything on my commute home is like being flattened by an Acme brand anvil.

JUST IN: Maryland preservation officials — prompted by a local citizen’s petition — have reopened their review of a proposed Hagerstown ICE detention center, requesting details about a road relocation project that may be linked to the facility. The state had issued approval on Jan. 29.

Imagine if there were regular polls on "diabetic issues", as well as breathless news articles on "diabetic ideology" and politicians giving speeches about the "diabetic agenda". Healthcare is healthcare, period.

I have been pleasantly surprised to hear people openly talking about the end of institutional life as we know it (it’s been over. We’ve been living and working in zombie institutions for three decades now) and instead of collapsing at the thought they’re like okay let’s rebuild but better. More.

Cool cool cool, it’s not like civilian and military aviation need to be in communication with each other OH WAIT tell that to the families of the 67 lives lost in the Potomac crash last year

Don't give anything an Emmy until it's as good as this.

It does not matter if you take the child you use as bait and then kidnap to McDonald’s!!!!!

Realized I’ll soon be working around hundreds of thousands of tourists in DC for the 250th. [insert stereotypes here] I was also born and started to be vaccinated before a double dose of MMR became standard in 1989. 10 minutes at CVS and now I’ve had at least 2 shots and NO FUCKING MEASLES. 💪💉💖

Bad Bunny's historical advisor is an assistant professor at UW-Madison. Hell of a flex for your tenure file.

Anywho, would be nice if there were Latine and Caribbean cultural critics employed by the MSM...

Fun fact: The divorce scene in the Kid Rock show was an actual divorce showing a wife leaving her conservative husband.

you know what's cheaper and safer than a ring camera? a fake camera. I've had one since my last porch theft three years ago and it even fooled the eye of a cop trying to get me to snitch on my neighbors. you can't subpoena a recording that doesnt exist.

Fun fact: engineering the light poles for Kendrick Lamar’s show took quite a lot of work to look like the real this while supporting the weight of a moving dancer. The power grid in Bad Bunny had its own important message about PR but is also a literal leitmotif!

It was transforming the biggest NFL stage in the world into a sugar cane plantation that did it for me. Like, the multiple layers of turning an American icon into a plantation and highlighting the history of exploitation of Black and Brown bodies by the NFL and American colonialism simultaneously?
