If I had explain American history in one sentence, I could do worse than "John Brown was hung for treason, but Robert E. Lee was not."

Happy Columbo's Day! Celebrate by doing one more thing on your personal to-do list, even if that thing is just watching your favorite episode.

Explaining to my wife that I cannot simply “read the books I’ve already bought and haven’t read” like some kind of peasant.

An eloquent image:

Setting aside the content under the tarp for a moment, teens were asked to make art expressing what it is like to be a teen, and the end result was a mural wrapped in a tarp by adults.

I bet a lot of teens would find this expressive of their experience.

me checking your posts this morning

A photo of Watterson at his drawing table.

A panel of Calvin and Hobbes riding their radio flyer red wagon.

Happy birthday to Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes! Born on July 5, 1958.

Bluesky is bad because everyone thinks identically (tells me I stink) instead of featuring a diversity of thought (telling me I'm a smart handsome boy)

I Photoshop Paddington into a movie, TV show, or pop culture until I forget: Day 1561

If members of the press are worried they didn’t give enough coverage to the cognitive decline of a sitting president, they have an amazing opportunity to make up for it right now.

Many of the most progressive spaces and movements are in the South and Midwest. They are often silenced by racism and gerrymandering, but they show up with little national support. Folks surprised that people in “red states” show up to protest should never forget that you can’t ignore “red states”.

I was part of this! Don’t yell at me for who I protected or didn’t protect from the Frost

This movie turns 30 years old next year so modern parents of young children I beg you to show them this and gaslight them into thinking this is just how we all talked back in the 90s

Ashitaka's story emphasizes the importance of having two girlfriends, one who is nice but evil and one who is mean but good, and you have to spend all of your time doing stuff for them

I am at nearly 100% digital now, it’s just too convenient. I still buy omnis and other collected works, but those are mostly to look at art. If I am actually reading, I go digital

‪Matthew Yglesias‬ ‪@mattyglesias.bsky.social‬ · 1d Some of the big ideas I’ve been associated with in my career: 1. Supply and demand applies to housing 2.

Idk if you have read enough Spider-Man to get this nerdy joke (and sorry to randomly skeet it to you) but the crossover of comics and cfb is low so I am sharing this with you

US Weather Agency Websites to Vanish Under Planned Contract Cuts The US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Agency is poised to eliminate most websites tied to its research division under plans for the cancellation of a cloud web services contract, a move that could s...

Almost all NOAA Research websites that rely on cloud services - including Amazon, Google and WordPress - are poised to disappear at midnight ET Saturday after a contract was targeted for "early termination." Labs may also feel the effects.

Story for @bloomberg.com (free link):

Have said the same for years. The Harper’s Letter did huge damage to the discourse around freedom of speech by privileging elite speech over that of the masses (“mean people on socials”) and gave liberal backing to the striking down of DEI.

Now with real censorship all around us and worse: Crickets

Leave trans people the fuck alone, and fill some potholes or something jesus christ.

I don't particularly care--nor should the Democrats--whether or not protecting trans people is popular in the heartland. Even if it alienates the "moderates," it's the right thing to do, and the Democrats should make every effort to do it. Sometimes what the people need is to be led and not lead.

Arrest him and treat him the same way this party treats legal residents who happen to disagree with them

Easily my favorite character introduced by the comics, and still think she would make for a great D+ series

Cuomo can’t run from sexual harassment It took real chutzpah for disgraced ex-Gov. Andrew Cuomo to launch his mayoral campaign on the first day of Women’s History Month. This whole month, and today, International Women’s Day, is m…

Cuomo’s candidacy is a brazen attempt to erase the rights so many women-who we honor during Women’s History Month-fought for. It is an insult to the women who came forward, risking their careers & reputations to hold a powerful man accountable. Read full my Op-Ed👇
