a “Space Force”, if you will

a lot of people regretting the 'this shoulda been an email' advice rn lol

Like, if there is a better depiction about the actual relationship between American Christian Nationalism and actual faith in God and Christ, I don't know it. These people would have bombed Bethlehem.

Who's gonna tell this dude that we already have a "cybrary" and it's called a library?

You know the Kelloggs founders are looking down at this scandalized that their anti-masturbation wellness corn flakes have been seized by decadent Italian nut butter merchants

I screamed at the TV when Matt Amodio (I think it was him) answered, "What is New York?"

Fox Mulder from X-Files saying “Hey, you got to stay alive if you want to stick it to the government”

“If you die, you let them off the hook.”

Needed this reminder today.

"WAR DIMS HOPES FOR PEACE" Wisconsin State Journal, December 27, 1965

I am reminded of this classic headline from the Columbia Journalism Review's collections.

My favorite way to travel.

A man holds a sign at a no kings protest. It reads: this is nothing compared to the party we'll have when you die

God damnit, THIS is the sign I wish I was carrying yesterday! #NoKings

May his punishment be eventually agonizing.

setting aside many other things, WIKIPEDIA IS ALREADY A GIANT FREE SUMMARY MACHINE. WIKIPEDIA NEEDS THIS TECHNOLOGY LESS THAN ANYONE ON EARTH

Horse_ebooks tweet: Everything happens so much

Wikipedia has a chance to be a free, universally recognized, and comprehensive counterpoint to slop, at a time when that is badly needed

A friend just asked me what I do to stay hopeful and I told him one of my favorite strategies…I stay hopeful by remembering that no one has any idea what the fuck is going to happen, so as long as we don’t know, we gotta do what we can.

The thing that's so demoralizing to me about the widespread use of unchecked chatGPT is how it reveals how little care so many people put into things.

at first you think "ah the dog is passively having fun" and then you realize the dog knows how to steer the skateboard and THEN you learn the dog knows how to PROPEL the skateboard

One of the best neon signs in Chicago bringing it.

Pope Leo XIV Is A Sox Fan, Despite The Early Hope From Cubs Fans, His Brother Confirms The Cubs' Marquee Sports Network, citing ABC News, said the new pontiff supports the North Siders. But his brother said that is not true.

Pope Leo XIV Is A Sox Fan, Despite The Early Hope From Cubs Fans, His Brother Confirms The Cubs' Marquee Sports Network, citing ABC News, said the new pontiff supports the North Siders. But his brother said that is not true.

Best Chicago controversy of the new Pope is the Cubs trying to lay claim to him and his brother having to speak up to clear up that he's a Sox fan. blockclubchicago.org/2025/05/08/p...

I am unapologetically telling you right now that Chicago is going to be insufferable about this, there is still a fading cardboard John Paul II in a Michigan Ave storefront looking out at Grant Park because he spoke there *once.*

Chicago is the best city on the planet and deserves to be as unbearable as it wants.

A Chicago Pope implies the existence of an MLA Pope and APA Pope

you know who else came from chicago and was on "a mission from god"

I mean, of which team he's for.
