@yungdreyfusard.bsky.social I’m always thinking about how this should be the model for a synagogue stained glass window.

Damn Thurn and Tassis always losing my packages

IMO it’s a joke that utilizes the sex factor

Do you still follow him? He’s been caught in a decade of tragic perfectionist development hell trying to make a new one reliable enough to take on tour and play with perfect timing.

The galleries are so hit and miss but sometimes they have large metal or clay sculptures and it’s aweeeesome

YUP YUP YUP

Looking through my camera roll, see a large piece of metal arranged interestingly. You bet I’m hitting that “@cheatlines.co”

@cheatlines.co they got pseudo Richard Serra at a gallery in Chelsea (superlative, awesome). I think they bent the metal, placed it, and poured the concrete floor in around it.

Just keeping you on your toes!

It would be good, maybe even great, for liberal Christians to be a staunch and uncompromising pro-immigrant bloc in the Democratic Party. It would also give the pro-immigrant position a counterweight to the far right position that can’t be derided with “open borders is a Koch brothers plot.”

Yeah Dan Savage is what my mom listens to :P

DAN SAVAGE COINED THE WORD PEGGING?????

socialism was stored in the [checks notes] vodka taxes

Oh wait I didn’t explain why - because of all the open land. New York might be a counter argument here but lots - most - of people only passed through.

You guys don’t understand how badly I wanna live in this photoshopped country…attatching California to China…wowwww

It’s also impossible to answer obviously.

“Did the moving to the US improve the lives of those who moved here to an extent greater than what we’d expect due to simple proximity to the wealth of the imperial metropole and genocide-cleared or slave-worked land?”
Is kind of The Most Interesting historical question to me.

It’s wild that a country founded on genocide and slavery was also the actual city on the hill for tens of millions to a degree that seems to be beyond even “duh the hegemon is where the wealth is”

There’s no land with more contrasts.

finally someone in congress has launched a serious proposal (term-limits aside)

Job has become close to actually interesting since Mamdani took office, but more abstractly than wrt the content of my day to day work

lock in to the lowkey the best neighborhood
