bring it all back.
100 years ago today, the Grand Lake Theater opened its doors on Grand Avenue.
there's a thing I like to call "load-bearing assumptions", that you don't notice until they're suddenly gone (e.g the air you breath has oxygen in it).
the post-ww2 order is a load-bearing assumption for basically the entirety of american life. trump took a sledgehammer to it in the last 90 days.
I lack the words to capture it, but ... it's just endlessly remarkable to me that so many people in our society have chosen trans kis -- TRANS KIDS, the smallest, least significant, most vulnerable demographic slice you could possibly pick -- as a repository for all their fears & insecurities.

kevinrkirk 2d @ Threads Why are we bothering with the Strait of Hormuz when we could simply do this? Explain it to me like l'm 5. (Drawing of chopping of part of land) suahuatica 2d MOUNTAIN HARD AND BIG, WATER NO UP. MANY MANY DIG DIG.
Happy Friday. Don’t skip school.
Time series plot depicting predicted Nino 3.4 region ocean temperature anomalies from the latest (Mar 2026) ECMWF ensemble. It depicts an extremely rapid rise in such temperatures, from modest negative anomalies to strong positive anomalies, by mid-summer 2026--indicative of a transition from weak-moderate La Nina conditions to moderate-strong El Nino conditions over just a few months.
Whew.
All signs are increasingly pointing to a significant, if not strong to very strong, El Niño event. I'll have more to say in coming weeks & months, but for now I'll just say that this is increasingly likely to become a major regional-to-global climate driver in 2026-2027.

lmfao Thomas Keller showing up to a community meeting in his chefs jacket to complain about affordable housing being built near his 3 Michelin star restaurant is just beyond parody. what a piece of shit

I fucking hate the American culture of entitled asshole selfishness. you see it everywhere. the driver assholes going 90 in a school zone. the assholes who don’t leash their dog or pick up their dog shit. the assholes who litter. the assholes who won’t vaccine their kids
what would you be doing right now if Kamala (or Hillary or Al) had won #ElectionMultiverse
Markwayne is actually a noble title, and is the Oklahoma equivalent to "Marquis," and may be passed on at the same time your father gives you his car dealership
Kristi Noem misattributing a paraphrase of Rudyard Kipling to George Orwell really does sum it all up huh
I think one of the things that bothers me the most about the way Polymarket presents itself to the world is that it's adopted the language of journalism to make itself sound more legitimate. Like look at this post from yesterday morning incorrectly "projecting" the winner.
Did they ask nicely? What were they wearing? ARE THEY GRATEFUL?

Kim Jong-un and Xi Jinping smiling together
Xi: Did you hear?
Kim: No...
Xi: The Americans are moving air defense systems out of South Korea!
Kim: What? No way!
Xi: Yes!
Kim: Amazing. How'd you do that?
Xi: I didn't do anything. They started a war with Iran, told themselves it'd be easy, and didn't do the math on interceptors.
Kim: Ha!
4 years of war against the Russian aggressors including the invaluable experience as well as technology Ukraine has accumulated, and it is now the nations of the world in dire situation which ask Ukraine for help. The best part, Ukraine gives them the help.
the self-abolition of Congress is fucking unbelievable

"Militarily closing the Strait of Hormuz—i.e. preventing US Navy access to it—would be hard, but Iran doesn’t need that for an economic impact. Hostilities make ships afraid to sail, and insurance companies refuse to cover the risk."
Looks like the White House really didn't think this through.

EXACTLY
The administration told them there’s one of 4 things going to happen here, in order of most to least likely:
- terrorist attacks in US
- Iran dramatically ramps conventional strikes
- u.s. ground invasion
- u.s. nuclear strike
To clarify, "everyone in this administration is absolutely cooked on dementia, cocaine, scotch, gender, or a cocktail that combines at least some of the above" is technically a reason but it's not a *strategic* reasons.
