Guess I’d better get around to watching Amélie sooner rather than later

Happy 250th anniversary of the battles of Lexington and Concord, for those who celebrate.

[FDR, December 7th, 1941, off-mic]

i'm sorry new york but you're kind of getting absolutely fucking dogwalked by boston rn

Good for Harvard for taking a stand. It pisses me off that the Trump admin is using Jewish students as an excuse. Especially right now, it pisses me off that we’re being used like this

unsurprisingly i think bouie is right to highlight the parallels with the fugitive slave crisis. the question of who *in* the community has rights cannot be cleanly separated from how we treat those "out" thus for us the crisis of citizenship erupts over our "constitution-free zone," the border

It’s annoying thing that any ‘serious’ fantasy assumes that all of the characters have to have UK accents. It’s literally all made up! There’s no reason they can’t all sound like guys from Boston or Dallas or whatever.

some reporter should just bring a breathalyzer to a Hegseth gaggle and ask if he'll take it on the spot. 100% worth getting your creds pulled. be a legend

I made some maps using a bivariate symbology. Here's smoking and drinking the US. My home state of Michigan likes to hit the sauce and have a couple squares

if you find yourself reluctant to support the guy at Columbia because you find some of the politics he espoused distasteful or even abhorrent, you should know that this is exactly the reaction that they hoped for in choosing him as a target for unlawful detention based on political speech.

I do not like this. I do not like being ruled by sociopaths soaked in an information system divorced from reality. I do not like that my president is an aspiring tyrant who has betrayed our allies to side with Putin. I do not like waking up every day feeling a kind of dirty no shower can fix.

“We tried voting and it didn’t work” is a super common thing to hear on this website for being complete fucking nonsense. The thing is that voting *did* work and the people who did it more *won*, it’s that it was the villains.

As the forces of hatred are on the march, my promise is this: Our trans neighbors will continue to be safe, protected, and welcome in Minnesota.

I can’t say this clearly enough: Fuck off, NCAA, and fuck off, NYT.

Continued last night with Mulholland Drive. I’m still not entirely sure what I feel about this movie, but like Blue Velvet it’s gonna stick with me for a long time

Do Not Comply In Advance: bossy, already a cliche, implies permission to comply later Fuck You, Make Me: leads by example, directs yelling at opposition instead of allies, easy to chant at a protest or put on a banner

It’s just amazing to me how quickly everybody else seemed to roll over. The man issued a delusional order like Hitler moving around nonexisting armies and they go “yes sir! Well drain all that water right away!!”

I wonder if between the last two weeks and recent Supreme Court rulings, we’re gonna see a turn towards legislative supremacy when we get power again

I was told there wouldn’t be anymore air safety concerns once we got rid of DEI
