"They went to war with Iran (which nobody in America was asking for) so they could conjure an excuse to allow ICE to keep murdering Americans and teargassing schools here at home with impunity (which nobody in America was asking for)."

Today marks the first day of Women's History Month; yesterday was the last day of Black History Month.

Every day is for women's history and Black history and Black women's history.

Because these are not histories that are separate from histories of war and economy.

This is a reminder: when ICE says someone rammed their vehicle for no reason, they're almost certainly lying.

If people were out there trying to harm ICE agents, they wouldn't be trying to hit massive SUVs with their cars. That math just doesn't work.

Images of an old silver 1999 Toyota Corolla for sale

You want a car that gets the job done? You want a car that's hassle free? You want a car that literally no one will ever compliment you on? Well look no further. The 1999 Toyota Corolla. Let's talk about features. Bluetooth: nope Sunroof: nope Fancy wheels: nope Rear view camera: nope...but it's got a transparent rear window and you have a fucking neck that can turn. Let me tell you a story. One day my Corolla started making a strange sound. I didn't give a shit and ignored it. It went away. The End. You could take the engine out of this car, drop it off the Golden Gate Bridge, fish it out of the water a thousand years later, put it in the trunk of the car, fill the gas tank up with Nutella, turn the key, and this puppy would fucking start right up. This car will outlive you, it will outlive your children. Things this car is old enough to do: Vote: yes

Consent to sex: yes Rent a car: it IS a car This car's got history. It's seen some shit. People have done straight things in this car. People have done gay things in this car. It's not going to judge you like a fucking Volkswagen would. Interesting facts: This car's exterior color is gray, but it's interior color is grey. In the owner's manual, oil is listed as "optional." When this car was unveiled at the 1998 Detroit Auto Show, it caused all 2,000 attendees to spontaneously yawn. The resulting abrupt change in air pressure inside the building caused a partial collapse of the roof. Four people died. The event is chronicled in the documentary "Bored to Death: The Story of the 1999 Toyota Corolla You wanna know more? Great, I had my car fill out a Facebook survey. Favorite food: spaghetti Favorite tv show: Alf Favorite band: tie between Bush and the Gin Blossoms This car is as practical as a Roth IRA. It's as middle-of-the-

When I ran the CarFax for this car, I got back a single piece of paper that said, "It's a Corolla, It's fine." Let's face the facts, this car isn't going to win any beauty contests, but neither are you. Stop lying to yourself and stop lying to your wife. This isn't the car you want, it's the car you deserve: The fucking 1999 Toyota Corolla. Google map of cars location

Never forget: 8 years ago a random person on Craigslist wrote the most effective ad for the Toyota Corolla, ever.

we will have the Mayor’s sword borne before us.

We will not be sanctioning Russia for dropping bombs on schools and hospitals. We will be sanctioning Minnesota for allowing its wine moms to blow whistles at ICE officers.

NY Times journalists: uuuuuuugh I always have to endure your unsparing criticism.

There's a big spread in the new Archival Outlook about AI and "sustainable archival workflows" and I feel insane because AI is at complete cross-purposes with environmental sustainability

Picture of an interior living room. In the foreground is a mug, beyond that is some knitting. Beyond that is a bouquet of tulips with sunlight glowing on them, beyond that is a chair with a comfy pillow on it.

I love my house sometimes! Morning light falls on tulips.

Doctors say that vaccines are the best way to protect children against measles. A guy who eats dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says they should just swim in untreated sewage water instead. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.
