An apartment complex. A headline reads: "Did Switzerland Solve The Housing Crisis?"

The way that housing co-ops work in Switzerland may seem foreign to many. But the central idea is simple: What if homeownership had no profit motive and no capital gains? Advocates say their model could reshape how the world thinks about affordable housing. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/r...

Good night 🌙 and….

Rockwell Refracted: Colorful Selections from the Permanent Collection is now on view @rockwellmuseum.bsky.social through Sept 8th. Drawing from the permanent collection 30+ works that span technique + subject matter unite through a shared exploration of color properties, emotion + cultural meanings.

Before we get too far into the I can’t believe I’m agreeing with #TuckerCarlson rhetoric + by proxy praising him, let’s remember he is 1st and foremost a grifter + opportunist. He sees the tides changing + wants to maintain his meal ticket. Did he make Cruz look stupid? Yes. Is water wet? Also, yes.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.

It is blatantly unconstitutional.

Reminder: the First Amendment protects everyone who resides in our country. It doesn't matter if you have a green card or a visa or if you're undocumented. The Supreme Court has repeatedly affirmed that any person residing in the United States, regardless of status, is entitled to 1A protections.

I’m still not over this halftime show and probably never will be tbh

"No white people during Kendrick's halftime show? So much for diversity"

Oh you didn't hear? DEI got canceled. He clearly hired the best people for the job 😌

Congratulations America,
He spent $15 million of YOUR money to take a nap at the Super Bowl and leave before halftime…

All, on your dime.

It warms my heart that the team who won't visit the White House beat the team who kissed his ass.

Kendrick Lamar deserves to win the very first Nobel Hate Prize

funniest highlights of the philly police scanner, a thread

if i text you this just know you’re cooked

Kendrick’s American flag motif at THIS MOMENT is subversive. Yes, yes, yes.

This is probably only one of only two, maybe three halftime shows ever which actually have an artistic point of view beyond “here are my greatest hits”. It’s already extraordinary.

Kendrick plus the Chiefs getting demolished might make this the best Super Bowl in a long time

Kendrick certainly just made all the worst people in this country mad, so that’s some nice icing on the cake

Snoop and Tom Brady: say no to hate

Kendrick: actually

Put the people who made the coffee mate tongue commercial in prison

Having Samuel L Jackson voice these Black thought in Amurricah skits is PERFECT

A world class hater. I am screaming.

There has never been a larger victory in any competition than Kendrick’s over Drake

Kendrick brought America together the way that "Country Roads" ad was supposed to.
