Ah but of course, the Appalachians … in the Precambrian… probably.
(I’m unfamiliar with this show)
The tautologist’s tautology.
Just paid these two and I’m adopting one more MN immigrant family’s rent for tonight, if I can pull it off.
This next family needs $2400 to stay out of eviction court. Can you help them stay housed?

“Those places, whatever that place may be for you—bookstore, dog park, … bakery, union hall—are so important to have in our lives at all ages. They get us out of the house. They get us to talk to strangers. They get us to try unfamiliar things.”

The Groove, which sadly closed and is now a controversial heap of rubble, and Grimey’s, which is still kicking.
Funnily enough, I’ve found a lot of my record collection in random thrift stores, though. 🤷🏻♂️

I'm really glad I've read a few good recent books because this makes me want to only ever read stuff older than 50 years old from now on.
ooohhnooooo
Just gonna point out again (and again and again) that Grok and X and other apps that create this kind of sexual imagery are still available on the Apple App Store by Apple, the safest place on Earth (citation: Apple marketing materials).
This may or may not have led me to go to Wikipedia to learn SMTP is as old as I am.
So.
Just a random reminder that that guy did not invent email.

This reminds me, I still haven't seen Rustin (2023).
The Throughline episode about him was great, though. www.npr.org/2021/02/22/9...
This. So very much this.
The more of these fascist atrocities I see, the more I become an immigration maximalist. Let everyone in, give everyone work permits/green cards. Make it possible to get citizenship within a few months. Make it as easy as getting a driver's license.
Oh this is GOOD, and I especially appreciate the awareness of this fact:
"Newsworthy tales of ICE atrocities can easily become violent entertainment for a ravenous national audience; action-movie sequences carried out by caricatures, grief and trauma commodified for mass consumption."
Welp, I’m sobbing now. 😭
easy slogan for the next democratic presidential candidate is “i will reform the corrupt supreme court and repeal citizens united”
My doomer-worry about AI is not that the LLMs become omnipotent and take over the world but that the wealthy and powerful use it as a means to consolidate power and marginalize or lay off skilled workers and also everything about our technological and political and social life gets worse
That's 100% why I created leavesubstack.com -- got tired of re-hashing the points; wanted to make a simple 1-pager.
this is DELIGHTFUL
and there are a few show-offs (you know who you are) which only make the distorted, carcenized faildoodles even better
so they spent an entire year stripping DEI out of everything and then got mad the halftime show wasn’t bilingual enough
Here’s a video for folks who don’t know about Surya. At the 1:30 mark you can see her back flip and how she lands on one foot, which is how all figure skating jumps are supposed to land.

Iconic moment as he says "God Bless América" and then names every country in South, Central, and North america in order
For the rest of the hemisphere, América doesn't mean the U.S.
It means evveeerrybody

This kind of smart, walkable, mixed-use urbanism is illegal to build in most American cities.
English speakers like "that was less political than I thought" lol they had ricky martin singing "dont do us like you did hawaii"
#BadBunny's performers continued to dance and party outside the stadium after the #SuperBowl #HalftimeShow
Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.
