I mean, how else is Musk gonna destroy the Justice League?

Since the traditional gift is candy and iron, I had wrought iron versions of classic candy made and put them in a bowl with the actual candy.

Every root beer barrel could put you over one, every peppermint twist could provide one, every jawbreaker could prove too literal.

Game 4 of the 1985 NLCS between the St. Louis Cardinals and the Los Angeles Dodgers, bottom of the 4th btw:

And here's the broadcast of that very at bat:

Baseball is the best game because I can watch an old home movie and can just make out the unmistakable voice of Vin Scully in the background saying "-ls lead 10-0" and a double play "taking a base hit away from Tudor" and can pretty easily nail down the precise game+inning the video's being filmed.

I think an under discussed aspect of him trashing the East Wing is that it applies pressure on the board to approve whatever his shit design is bc the alternative would be leaving a gaping hole there instead.

Wild that Republicans ginned up more outrage over Cracker Barrel changing its logo than over an entire wing of the White House getting torn down, but of course then you must recall that they don't actually have any principles.

Just to follow up, an additional source at least for political cartoons would be the Prints & Photographs division's search:

Specifically you can check out the Cartoon Drawings Collection, and then browse by Subjects:

Visualization of the number of items covering a particular year in Chronicling America. It shows a steady increase in temporal representation from 1860 to a peak in about 1915, before a big drop by 1930 and a relatively steady decrease thereafter into 1960.

The other thing is that ChronAm is solely public domain content, and thus stronger the further back you go, and most especially after you get over the public domain bump of the mid-1920s. So I'm not surprised Ruby Bridges results are slim pickings.

I work at the Library of Congress (well, when I'm not furloughed), and I'm real familiar with the ChronAm ppl. I'm very skeptical that this is an actual removal thing, and I think it's more that the search isn't great (a critique I share with the general LOC website experience tbh).

I dunno, seems pretty clear given there's a law on the books directly addressing the legality of such an action.

What do I know though, I don't work for the New York Times, apparently this is a matter of some debate according to the paper of record!

Completely yoked versions of Commander Riker, Captain Picard, and Counselor Troi sit in chairs. Riker sits with his left hand seductively grasping the back of the chair. Even Picard notices how...comfortable he is.

Doctor Crusher leans seductively against a door frame, a very appropriate way to address your commanding officer and your son, as she's doing here.

Feel like if this is how the law works, there’s no reason to make a budget deal because there’s no reason to believe anything that you win via Congress will actually happen anyway.

What the fuck?

I recognize 63% of these bands, but I don't know if I really "recognize" Fountains of Wayne without Schlesinger.

Just glad I saw them back in 2013 (with Soul Asylum!) when I had the chance.

I get that the news cycle is packed right now, but I just heard from a colleague at the Smithsonian that this is fully a GIANT SQUID BEING EATEN BY A SPERM WHALE and it’s possibly the first ever confirmed video according to a friend at NOAA

10 YEAR OLD ME IS LOSING HER MIND (a thread 🧵)

Some Texas Schools Are Making Teachers Deadname Trans Students After New Bill Passed “This can’t be interpreted as anything else but an attack directly on trans kids.”

NEW @teenvogue.com: a Texas bill passed this summer mandating schools deadname trans students, leaving enforcement to districts. @kitoconnell.com speaks to trans students in TX:

“I’ve never felt more at threat here. I can’t stop thinking that everything would be so different if I detransitioned.”

Nancy Mace acting on disinformation that the shooter was trans: goes off on tirade against "trannies"

Nancy Mace when the actual shooter is a Christian white man: "he's just a poor lost boy, let us pray for him."

Hey, you wrote for that show that already did it!

I guess this has probably already gone viral somewhere but I am simply dying at this picture of a bear that looks like it hired a photographer to do a glamour shoot

I mean what on earth are district court judges supposed to do at this point other than get the message from SCOTUS to let Trump do whatever he wants to no matter what the law says.

Not to mention ahistorical and wholly against the Enlightenment principles that guided this nation's founding. Religious liberty isn't "given" by the government, it is an innate right; the 1st Amendment is protection against government *infringement* of that right.
