I think there’s a simple explanation for all of this. Putin has poisoned various people over the years with radioactive material. I suspect he poisoned Trump years ago but all the fast food buoyed him & the stinking, bruised, dementia-addled creature we all see is the result.

Our starting lineup next year is going to be LaMelo Ball, Domantas Sabonis and the corpse of Paul George.

I’d like to rescind all the All Star votes I’ve cast for the Knicks this year.

In a minute, we’re going to start hearing rumblings about James Dolan. Watch.

That’s what this whole thing reminds me of.

I’m not saying it’s conceivable for Mike Brown to get fired during the season at this point, but I am saying that I find it conceivable that it *could* happen. It’s 2026 and crazy shit happens by the hour. They will definitely make a trade first. But keeping my eyes open.

Brunson and KAT had never shown an ounce of chemistry since KAT got here. I don’t know whose fault that is, but we have a season & a half of evidence that they don’t play well together. They play well while on the floor together sometimes but they don’t play well *together*.

I’m not watching the Knicks again this month. I think that’s the plan. Wake me up when it’s serious.

A ProPublica analysis revealed a stark pattern across the Deep South, where about 200 majority-Black public school districts educate 1.3 million students. Alongside those districts are private academies filled almost entirely with white students. (Published Dec. 2024)

“This is a very dangerous tool in the hands of an out-of-control agency. This granular location information paints a detailed picture of who we are, where we go, and who we spend time with.”

The only way this is okay is if it’s a ruse to slip Putin some radioactive material to rid the world of him.

This is a terrific thread. The quoted post here is near the end of the thread. If you follow the story back to the top it’s compelling.

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this: America's problems are solved problems. Just not here. What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵

How would you propose the Russian people deal with their autocratic Putin kleptocracy? However you answer that question, apply it to the United States. In theory, we should have a much easier time executing said plans, but if we can’t I think the point is made.

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

I’m sitting in the theater at the Museum of the Moving Image in Astoria, Queens about 15 minutes from a screening. Thanks, Jeff. I’m so happy to wrote this last week or I would have missed my chance.

404 Media has obtained material that explains how Tangles and Webloc, two surveillance systems ICE recently purchased, work. Webloc can track phones without a warrant and follow their owners home or to their employer.

Fucking Slim Shady over here. I will never cast a vote for him, no matter what.

ICE is part of an ethnic cleansing project in a burgeoning apartheid state. If Kavanaugh Stops are legal, a brown US-citizen with an accent can be harassed at any moment, as many times as their are minutes in a day, wherever they are in public. That’s PW Botha shit.

How much more in your face can it be? "Why are you asking me for my paperwork?" "Because of your accent." "You have an accent too." "Where were you born sir?" "Where were you born at?" "Put your hands behind your back."

Greg Bovino was seen earlier today at the Minneapolis ICE facility dressed in a very nazi-inspired outfit. They don’t even hide anymore.

Imagine a theoretical Barack Obama pardoning Luigi Mangione.

Denmark: Miller is a tiny man with a tiny penis and a tiny brain. He cannot defend his ideas… Under every understanding of law that has existed about human decency that has existed for 4000 years, to be a sniveling puke-face you have to get your ass kicked at recess…

This scene keeps running through my mind when I think of how I’d like to see us fight ICE.

When the racist meme becomes national policy

It’s been 28 days since the Epstein files were supposed to be fully released.

I think I understand something more about the end of Qaddafi and Saddam Hussein, which seemed brutal & barbaric at the time to most Americans. I understand the impulse. Cruelty, brutality & oppression breed the urge for the same in retribution.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

The fact that “MS Now” had this yammering old fart on air to discuss anything in 2026 is the same phenomenon as the Democratic Party relying on Chuck Schumer to do literally anything useful.

1. It's been more than a day since 2 of America's most storied newsrooms, CBS and ABC, reported that killer ICE agent Jon Ross suffered "internal bleeding" based on unnamed sources Since then - No other news org has confirmed the story - No evidence (photos, medical records) has been produced

I don’t understand the quarter zip trend. On one hand it’s because I’m old. On the other hand, because I’m old I remember that that shit was herbish when people did it the first time. (No offense to the herbs that wear them as business casual attire. 😂) It’s like corporate cosplay.

I don’t know if anyone has used the term, but I’m calling these people “news actors.” The woman who recently harassed Ilhan Omar was a “news actor” who was sent to perform harassment for viral clips. Jennings is an older form of news actor. The malleable pundit. Whatever is required in the role.

Brunson or no Brunson, the Knicks problem is guard defense. Brunson is below average, Clarkson is bad, Kolek is overmatched every night, Bridges has been spotty on that end, Deuce is great but they easily switch off of him. They need some size and length to guard point of attack. Someone athletic.

Is this a wax museum?

Our dogshit bench is at it again.

Watching Yabusele is so depressing.

I compared the user interface in this photo to the leaked user guide I have for Mobile Fortify, and it's the same. Mobile Fortify is ICE's app for verifying someone's identity, immigration status, whether issued order of deportation. ICE says it overrides a birth certificate bsky.app/profile/donm...

A some point I’d like someone to simply respond, “Shut up, you stupid cunt” to guys like this.

For the life of me I will never understand who looks at all of this and says, “Perfect. I love it.” He hasn’t helped anyone except his cronies. He’s literally destroying the country hour-by-hour and a big segment of America loves it.

If there’s any path to trading for Giannis, the Knicks should do it without blinking. I’ve seen enough. And I don’t feel panicked about the losses piling up. I just don’t think OG and KAT do enough secondary creation to do that Finals run gauntlet. I’d rather roll the dice on Brunson/Giannis.

Tapping out of a game that the Knicks play from behind from the start seems like a solid thing now. Good night.

Happening Now: Students have walked out of school and are protesting against ICE in Saint Paul, Minnesota

Yo, this is so crazy. Giannis pulled a Julius Randle by booing his home crowd back…after being fouled by…Julius Randle. youtu.be/4vD9ngrBDWs?...

In other words, the international and domestic project of ethnic cleansing marches on.

The Knicks beat the Pistons 102-87 in London on the 17th of January, 2013. Founders this piece of social media art from Knicklyn in my photo roll.

Quiet, piggy

Keep it up, Bari Weiss. A 23% loss in viewership for CBS News is nothing. We can do better. variety.com/2026/tv/news...

4 male ICE agents tackle a woman U.S. citizen—lift her off ground with no concern over groping her breast or exposing her midriff. "Help me! Help me!" she cries out. "Check my ID!" Agents shove her into back of SUV hitting her head—literally run away from scene of crime. St. Paul, Minnesota.
