i’ll be dead in the ground before taking fashion advice from a spook
one thing about my dad’s dad is that i have information that leads me to believe he may have been childhood friends with david lynch. i have been unable to confirm this because everyone who would know is dead, but the investigation is ongoing.
never knew my dad’s dad but he was a civil engineer. mom’s dad was a high school band teacher who then retired and ran a little bookstore with my grandma. i spent about 90% of my childhood in that bookstore.
miles davis’ famous milestones cover. his ocbd is a little rumpled, a little loose, very jazzy.
paul newman, maybe the most famous button down wearer of them all, ripping a dart, which is not necessary for an ocbd but doesn’t hurt. well, doesn’t hurt the look anyway.
steve mcqueen is a white ocbd, v-neck sweater and harrington jacket. i think it’s kinda hard to pull off a harrington when you’re not steve mcqueen, but the rest of the outfit looks good.
robert redford and jane fonda in barefoot in the park. redford’s in a blue ocbd, charcoal trousers and a dark tie. it’s a pretty conservative look as redford goes but it’s bulletproof.
i’ve seen some wild takes on this website but “button down collars suck” is up there. the ocbd is america’s last good contribution to the world.
yeah, in terms of value for a new shirt, i don't think you can beat spier and mackay. that said, it's true what they say about brooks brothers shirts from the 60s.
paul newman in an ocbd. the collar is unbutonned and popped, soaring majestically towards his cheekbones like a magnificent seabird.
a collar in J Crew's new line of ocbds. it is small and weak, barely reaching the poor sap's adam apple. it will not last the winter.
they used to make real collars in this country.
An original Nashville sit-in member, along with Diane Nash, James Bevel, and John Lewis. Trained in non-violence by James Lawson. At age 21, he signed a will before the Freedom Rides, knowing he could die.
May his soul be at peace, and may we all have such courage in the face of oppression.
An ICE detainee in Arizona has died of a TOOTH INFECTION after it went untreated for weeks, a local official says. He was a Haitian asylum seeker imprisoned in Florence, Arizona. @emilybregel.bsky.social reports.

Historian here history first time as tragedy the second time as farce.
Vaguely recall that a paroled inmate committing a terrible crime was enough of a scandal to undercut the Dukakis campaign. This is objectively worse in term of Trump's responsibility, but will get a fraction of the attention.
ICE has arrested and detained a Nashville journalist who reported stories critical of ICE. She’s married to a U.S. citizen and has been seeking asylum here after fleeing death threats in Colombia because of her journalism there.
They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

Chotiner: i’m just wondering if your nostalgia for friday night lights leads you to be overly forgiving to the show in a way you’re not towards other shows with less serious flaws that don’t have the same memories attached to them. Do you think that’s possible?
Me: Well, maybe
Chotiner: Possibly.
Chotiner: So Friday Night Lights is your favorite tv show?
Me: definitely. One of the best ever.
Chotiner: So you’re a big fan of season two, i take it.
Me: Well, I don’t know about that.
Chotiner: But you think, and i’m quoting you here, it’s “one of the best ever”?
Me. No, Isaac. No. Hang on.

“No front-page stories in NYT, WSJ, WaPo. No mention on NBC and CBS Sunday Shows. No stand alone segments on Evening News shows. A death count on par with the OKC bombing is relegated to the back page.” www.columnblog.com/p/corporate-...
If there was video of a Senate Dem giving a compound fracture to a Marine while wearing his dress blues, that guy would've been burned at the stake by close of business
The secretary of Miami-Dade County’s GOP started a group chat for conservative students — and within 3 weeks, it was filled with over 400 instances of the N-word, Nazi rhetoric and writings of "dozens of ways of violently killing Black people"
the one who loved horses, the one who was a great goalkeeper, the one who kept a diary every day, the one who held her sister's hand when they walked to school, the one who read Harry Potter in English, the one who collected old coins, the one who drew rainbows for her grandmother ...
i had a job interview that ended with me hiding from the cops in a strip club.
it’s a good movie!
more or less undeniable that pete hegseth believes the u.s. military can jumpstart Left Behind But For Real, but the report getting passed around isn’t quite adding up. i’m freaking out for about a thousand reasons right now. gonna need a little more confirmation before i freak out about this too.
Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.
agreed with the friendly atheist here. this story doesn’t smell right.
project hail mary in theaters everywhere this spring!
our best scientists and historians cannot explain what happened to the endlessly entertaining, successful and lucrative film genre of Guy Who Is In Over His Head.

fr. richard rohr once told me ideally we all move through cycles of construction, deconstruction and reconstruction, but folks on the right get stuck in construction and folks on the left get stuck in deconstruction. stayed with me.
