Samuel Barber: The Lovers/Prayers of Kierkegaard. Dale Duesing, Sarah Reese; The Chicago Symphony Chorus and Orchestra - Andrew Schenck

A drugged-up Belorussian savagely attacked an Afghan toddler at a Moscow airport. It’s a horrific video, and though there were skull and spinal fractures, there was no brain damage and the child is stable. Barukh Hashem.

If you’re zip-tying grandmas protesting losing health care maybe you’re not the good guys in the story?

LaRouchists consider all family planning assistance in the developing world to be some sort of genocidal Malthusian conspiracy courtesy the British royal family to cull the human population. Funny, then, when I look at women in the LaRouche Movement, and how few children they tend to have, if any.

This could have all been avoided had we elected the sanitation lady four years ago.

Shucks, when did Brooklyn Brewery discontinue Sorachi Ace? I really liked that one.

Looks like I’m part of the 1% after all; the 1% who ranked Zellnor Myrie first.

Claiming that a guy going to a Jewish museum to murder Jews somehow wasn’t antisemitic because his victims, unbeknownst to him, happened to work at the Israeli embassy and one was religiously Christian is *exactly* why I don’t feel safe around the left.

It's odd that even an authoritarian like Trump would want to destroy US science, but there we have it. It is hard to see any other rationale for this random act of chaos. www.scientificamerican.com/article/trum...

A cis/het princess publicly shaming by name a transwoman and gay man for disliking Mamdani and thus not being queer the right way is peak DSA to me.

This is what the right truly fears

At its core, MAGA is a movement of pathetic failures of men turning their gaping flaws and insecurities into literally the whole world's problem.

What is the system that determines syllable stress in Farsi? Is there a system, or do you just have to know the language?

I see we’re at the “If you don’t rank Zohran first that means you’re Islamophobic!” stage of DSA cultish desperation.

www.tumblr.com/sethshead/78... I started out in the magnet program, as our gifted & talented classes were called. There were problems. The pace of learning was brisk, which was good, but there was so serious an overload of homework that it all but required heavy parental involvement. If a family

I’m not sure how I feel about a British English-language cover of an Italian American English-gibberish original. It’s a game we all play with Google Translate, but just because we can doesn’t mean we should.

I always remarked that Iran, country with a clock in the middle of its capital counting down to the supposed destruction of Israel, should not have the nuclear means available to make that prediction a reality.

So Iran requires Kurds give their children Persian and forbids Kurdish names? Why does that sound familiar?

Björk: Post

Between this and wanting to do away with gifted & talented programs and the specialized high schools, Mamdani is everything that makes the left non-viable and downright destructive in America.

Well, gosh, whoda thunk

Rufus Wainwright: Poses

“I will actively discourage people from voting for Democrats, and then denounce them for being unable to save us when they don’t control a single branch of government. Their inability to cater to my light-on-civics magical thinking confirms why I advised people to vote third-party or stay home!”
