As we approach the inauguration date, this line from James Blake is haunting me:
“Doesn’t it feel like the end?
Something’s coming for us
And maybe we’re not prepared
That this might only be day one”
- Like the End

I didn’t expect Wicked for Good to be an anti-fascist manifesto AND the origins of “they were roommates.”

Mavs/Pelicans game had no business being that entertaining, involving two of the most sorry teams in the NBA. I’m all in on Queen

That was a proof-of-concept game for the Rockets. KD did exactly what they brought him in to do.

The Mavs can now sell off assets (PJ and Gafford have real value, Marshall a bit, AD and Kyrie who knows) to get their picks back for the next three years, and build around Cooper and the ‘26 pick). Some good news finally for the fans

Just loving the new Mavis Staples record, which speaks so perfectly to the moment, with the requisite gravitas and knowledge that comes from her history. Also, the best rendition of Cohen’s “Anthem” ever; I got goose bumps when she growls “you’re gonna hear from me”

The Westin St. Francis in San Francisco got rid of the lobby space they used for the big Christmas tree and decorations that folks in and out of town brought their kids to see during the season (they built a bar instead). A symbolic and sad end to Union Sq as a destination/public space.

First, Derek is a national treasure, and his historical knowledge continues to astound. Second, one of my favorite US history lessons is about the Break & Roses strike in Lawrence. A tidbit that got my attention was that the workers there spoke 27 different languages.
JD Vance claims that diversity weakens unions, as people end up distrusting each other and not organizing.
Let me tell you two menswear stories related to this claim. 🧵
