The cool thing about this is that 24 hours in, nobody’s got their stories straight. Surely doesn’t portend only bad things.

It is funny that Tulsi Gabbard fought so hard to be Bashar Assad's #1 agent in Washington, he's toppled mere days before before she can step into the cabinet and now she's just there to rubber-stamp the foreign policy of Marco Rubio, the last real neocon.

When I moved to Seattle in 2003, I had exactly zero budget flexibility bc the Iraq War fucked with AmeriCorps stipends, so I couldn’t afford an AWK ticket. So I went to a record store signing he did a few blocks away. He remembered the lady who gave him a charm bracelet months earlier. A real one(*)

*nice, thin blood voice* “oh ya?”

Two or three times a year, some poems I teach require me to spend at least part of a class filling in students in on the excess and insanity of the run-up to the Iraq War and the the War on Terror more broadly. And, as it happens, that’s what was already on the schedule for when we return on Tuesday

unless they have it written up and voted on within 24 hours i dont give a shit. no more stalling no more lip service

How it's going.

at least we have the bucs/panthers to look forward to

Chicago!

they’re absolutely going to blow their dicks off on this thing.

not the point, but the quarterzip and jacket makes him look like such a loser

Greg Grandin offers his reading of what is transpiring in Venezuela.

👁️

this still seems fairly plausible as an outcome

This person went on a buying spree over the past 24 hours. Fresh wallet. Only existed since Dec 27th and has only bet on Venezuela-related markets. polymarket.com/@0x31a56e9E6...

no i swear, bro, it’ll totally work this time

imagining thinking this administration's CIA could stage a coup without fucking it up and/or leaking it to like five journalists and ken klippenstein

a favorite Beefheart quote.

Turning this into my yule log video next year.

They aren’t huffing gas They don’t need a large porno collection They don’t listen to Coal Chamber They don’t say “yeah baby” like Austin powers

This, indeed, is awesome.

White House doctors posting "Keep your streak going" messages to Trump like his cognitive exams are Spelling Bee

It’s cool how Lyman positioned himself for years as a moderate Christian conservative. A great encapsulation for this entire ecosystem of thinkers in one guy. All of them are Nazis and deserve the fate of one.

whole emerging subgenres of MN guys promising to be sworn in on their copies of Tim, New Day Rising, Music for Insect Minds, Cunning Stunts, and so on.

I’m watching Death is a Caress right now, and you can tell where it’s from because the real danger in the film is the experience of joy.

And the son of the director of Mississippi Masala

Remembering Milt Jackson on his birthday 🎂 📷 Marco Glaviano, 1992 "Milt played the instrument in the most organic way possible - with a warm, rich sound. He set a precedent that this instrument can speak beautiful things, that it's not just percussive." - Stefon Harris

Noooooo!

What is this tasteful shit, what have we become

A few weeks ago, they sent a robot to the Mavs and Kyrie accidentally killed it by pushing it over and this so funny www.instagram.com/reel/DSYWNRj...

Hey you know what this year fucking sucked.

Tired: Flea making a jazz record with the International Anthem crew Wired: Michael Anthony making a jazz record with the International Anthem crew

anyone taught by wurman should ask the university of minnesota law school for a refund

"There is no sense calling for independent or solitary action by something called “the humanities” when that category has been so thoroughly absorbed by concerted attacks on democratic governance, due process of law, rights to privacy, security, assembly, and expression. We are all humanists now."

Taking this energy out of this shitass year.

Earlier this month I joined the UMN Undergraduate Student Government for a student townhall on food insecurity with @doronclark.bsky.social and Rep Mohamud Noor. 25% of UMN students struggle to access healthy, affordable food on a regular basis. That is unacceptable.

Ran into William Petersen at the Montrose dog beach when he was in town to do Beckett’s Endgame.

This is so fucking dangerous.

I converted to PDF and filled it in that way, but I wanted to play, so here goes nothing bsky.app/profile/sill...

no goddamnit i will not hand it to cris collinsworth. absofuckinglutely not.

post a perfect album from the 90s that isn't nirvana, pearl jam, soundgarden, or Alice In Chains. I’m gonna keep flogging this album until everyone wises up (also lol what a weird prompt—there’s maybe one perfect album between the four?).

Looks like the Bills need another 9/11 hijacker speech.

So uhhhhhhh the bears all got norovirus apparently? I mean perhaps it's something else but it seems bad?!
