a skilled ER nurse with a deep sense of civic responsibility is exactly the kind of person you want carrying a firearm.
every ICE employee should be barred from touching anything deadlier than a butter knife for the rest of their natural lives.

the best 2020s espionage black comedy is about the construction crew on the White House ballroom gradually realising that they're *all* spies from different countries, except for one undocumented immigrant who has to teach them how to do things

Absolute nightmare stuff happening at Mar-a-Lago. This looks like if Roberto Bolaño made Eyes Wide Shut.
As lead rains down on America, the partying continues at Mar-a-Lago.
This time in dog masks and aristocratic garb.

I’m sure his politics are awful, but “French Hill” is a great name. You could audition for ZZ Top with a name like that.
French Hill (R-Ark), chair of House Financial Services, called a criminal inquiry into Jerome Powell “an unnecessary distraction.” Hill said in a statement that pursuing charges against the Fed chair “could undermine this and future administrations’ ability to make sound monetary policy decisions.”

The musicians who played on the Hawaii Calls radio show deserve to be considered one of the great studio bands, comparable to the Wrecking Crew, the Motown band, and the Muscle Shoals band. A cultural treasure and vast amount of talent. Here’s a great vocal from Lani Custino youtu.be/T4sKHmiNUks?...

It's almost as if the Enlightenment figures who founded the US had learned the lessons of Europe's wars of religion and created a secular state that would both protect worshippers from political interference, AND protect the polity from becoming dominated by religious sectarians.

The actor Michael Sheen used all his money to start a fake debt collecting business, buy 900 people in Wales's debt, and excused it. If Musk bought ALL $194 billion in medical debt in the U.S. and excused it in the same way, he'd still be the world's riches man by hundreds of billions of dollars.

One of my neighbors has been putting up these fish facts posters. All kinds of different fish, marine, freshwater, deep, shallow, all kinds. This is a good one. “Stg this real fish” took me out. Good work, neighbor.

This composition had eluded me for nearly a decade, but yesterday I was finally able to capture it. A train rolled through just as the Duquesne Incline was crossing over the tracks in #Pittsburgh, creating a picture perfect winter scene. It was worth the hours and hours I've waited over the years.

As someone who lives in Portland and is out and about quite a bit, I have yet to see any National Guard. Fox News is promoting a fiction of the city as a war zone, but it just isn’t the case. There isn’t anything for the guard to do but rake wet leaves from the gutters (which would help).
