Nova Twins Tiny Desk?!?!!!!

Ellis: "This is the Chicagoland I see. From Aurora to Cicero, and Chicago to Evanston to Waukegan. This is a vibrant place, brimming with vitality and hope. Striving to move forward from its complicated history."

Got an email this morning with an article about AI potentially hallucinating metadata. Now here's a thread about a lawyer who used AI that hallucinated statements in an affidavit. Everyone should be aware, it's not just about fake authorities.

I don’t know how many times I’ve watched this video.

I don’t know how we’ve gotten to the point where men in full balaclavas can abduct daycare teachers while they’re watching children.

But I do know that this isn’t sustainable. Abolish ICE. There is no way to reform this.

Actually, seeing a man of color, getting scared, and calling The Police, is pretty typical racist behavior

Washington post article that says “MAGA singles are looking for love in Washington. It's a challenge.“ Subbed: The politics of trying to find a partner in an overwhelmingly liberal city can be tricky: "My partner can't think I'm a fascist. That's crazy."

Every couple of months Conservatives publish this article about how no one wants to fuck them and we are apparently not supposed to think they’re losers.

Still not REMOTELY low enough until we get here:

I have been enjoying this show a lot.

The Reze arc movie was a lot of fun.

They all look like suspects in a high school murder movie

Warhammer is harm reduction

1. Been thinking a lot about Judith Butler’s notion of “grievability” with respect to Charlie Kirk, Gaza, Melissa Hortman and others.

It’s a way of thinking about whose lives are socially recognized as valuable and, therefore, whose deaths are publicly mourned.

Brazil showing the world what you do to those that try and overthrow the elected government

From me, a list of Trump supporters who killed, or tried to kill, Democrats and opponents of Trump in recent years (since the right are now claiming all the political violence is from the left!)

A four-panel comic. Panel 1: A guy looks in on a lady who's crying and says, "Hey, is everything okay?" She replies, "It's just... the Bone Farmer... he died." Panel 2: He: "He was that thing that would break into people's homes and steal their skeletons while they slept, right?" She: "So sad." Panel 3: They are looking at a picture of what I would describe as an interdimensional monster with way too many eyes and teeth. And a bowtie. She: "I mean obviously: IDEOLOGICALLY I didn't agree with him. With regards to skeleton ownership. But his smart li'l bowtie!" He: "You have to admire his tenacity for a cause he BELIEVED IN!" Panel 4: A man in a gigantic glass jar whose body appears to be pretty much just a shapeless lump resting on the bottom of it, obviously missing a skeleton: "Gonna have to disagree with you folks here." The first guy: "Too SOON, Geoff!"

This Mattie Lubchansky comic seems topical again.

Keep your Eyes Open, ICE is in our city, solidarity mutual aid 202-335-1183

Saw this flyer on my walk yesterday advising on ICE, the number to call is still visible even though some douchebag tried to tear it.

Bicycle

Or

The Flash Gordon theme

Lawyers get a bad rap. I know some pretty cool ones. But this asshole is not just racist but apparently really loves representing leeches

Heck of a thing to admit

yeah michaels is just regurgitating the kind of slop you get from anonymous racist accounts in tiktok comments

don't forget about Palestine. Don't stop talking about Palestine. Even among the so many other horrible things going on, the plight of Palestine is critical to the future of all of us

I wish a very Hulk Hogan to all who make fun of brutalized immigrants.

it’s only emo if it was connected to the DC hardcore scene in some tangential way, otherwise it’s just sparkling radio rock
