If this was, in fact, an active shooter situation, treating it like a minor inconvenience so you can go back to your fancy dinner is the most end-stage American capitalism display I could possibly imagine

My painting SUPERSTITION MOUNTAINS

We all deserve more ease. That's really it.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for

Setting my "days without Trump doing some Nicolae Carpathia from Left Behind shit" counter to zero.

today sure feels like one of the all time ‘so i still just gotta go and do my little job during all this?!’ moments

Gonna share these clips of NASA scientists saying some iteration of "these are the types of annotations/observations/insights only humans can offer" over and over and over again with my little AI-enabled plagiarizers. I'm loving it.

Atheists are mad about this and they’re absolutely right but please just let me say as a Christian I am not wild about the Center for Racialized Kidnapping profaning the iconography of my religion either. The Piss Christ or that David Wojnarowicz video are thoughtful provocations, this is just shit

if nothing else, there is something to be said for spending time outside in the sun with thousands of people who share your anger at the state of things

Stop worrying about what YA books to let your kids read and let them sort it out with V C Andrews and cocaine era Stephen King as God intended

Strong recommendation to teaching faculty to just say no to this stuff, even if you are AI curious/enthusiastic. This is meant to reduce faculty autonomy and capture human labor with automation. You're selling out your future self and the profession as a whole. www.insidehighered.com/news/tech-in...

The overwhelming majority of American public school teachers (71%) hold at least one side job, according to a new survey released today. www.cnn.com/2026/03/02/b...

This is so bleak.

I love the hater pope

I urge you to stop what you're doing and watch Alysa Liu's free skate from yesterday. I have never seen anything like this. I understand why sports writers are born now. I have never seen anyone as free from the burdens of this world as this pierced Oakland girl spinning to Donna Summers.

Alysa Liu for president. That free skate healed something in me, and I believe she could heal a nation.

Yep. The market problem writ large is exceptionally true in highered. But it won’t matter — and doesn’t matter — to those in charge right now because the point is to strip the institution.

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

New response to any criticism of my podcasts just dropped

Our 16 yo cat died. There's something about losing, in midlife, the pets from when you were young and child free. But my husband today said, "I read about RFK snorting cocaine off a toilet seat, and I thought why are my cat and Catharine O'Hara dead when this MF lives?" And, yes, there's also that!

and of course his masterwork: the character of james van der beek in the bitch in apartment 23

Shrinking is like what if your cute comedy depressed the hell out of you every week?

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

What are mogul skiers knees made out of? Because there's no way they're made of the same material as mine. 😅

The Bad Bunny Halftime Show is what it will feel like when It Happens.

Conservatives use the children watching the SuperBowl to gin up outrage against Bad Bunny, but the most inappropriate and dangerous message I saw was the MAHA ad saying being fat made that rapist want to kill himself. Truly vile stuff.

Kind of gives away the whole game that all the crypto ads this year have been replaced with gambling and AI ads.

Ilia skating to the sound of his own voice gives me the ick, but I'm glad he secured the Team Gold for us.

With AI help like this, who needs enemies. #edusky #fuckAI

Wow. That's huge for Prescott.

NOW: GENERAL STRIKE TUCSON. Largest protest I’ve ever seen in this city in 15+ years

A massive, blocks-long march protesting immigration enforcement and broader anti-immigrant policies heads away from its start at the Federal Building in Tucson, Arizona.

was that not already banned

Meanwhile teachers are being pushed to use AI to generate lesson plans and grade You know the dead internet theory? That's what tech companies are trying to do to schools www.nbcdfw.com/news/nationa...

my expectation of democratic senators is that they find 1/10th of the bravery of your average 70 year old lutheran lady following ICE around mpls in her subaru crosstrek

Prosecute him

Now what is he going to do with all his little Nazi outfits

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

They aren’t inefficient. They are terrorizing and killing people with the maximum amount of terrorist spectacle that they want and intend.

It isn’t healthy to be this angry all the time. But it also isn’t healthy if this doesn’t make you angry.

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

So glad we capitulated immediately and now our students have lost their cultural centers. I'm sure that it will be so easy to secure the funding to restore them. 🫣

A Wrinkle in Time. Honorable mention to The Grey King and A Bridge to Terabithia.

Now that the White House is using AI to edit photos of their political opponents to create fascist propaganda I’m wondering if anyone could have seen this use of AI coming. Okay I’m hearing lots of people did and they were forced to watch corporations smother the masses with the technology anyways

If you’re a grown ass man in full tactical gear asking a child to show you ID or proof of citizenship you failed at life. Utterly & completely failed. Loser.

One day it will be true, and I hope to hear it here first.

The Tucson Festival of Books has a stacked lineup this year!

it’s like we elected the kid who wishes people into the cornfield
