Principal Jaime Cook describes one of the third graders in her northern New York school as particularly rambunctious. In a phone call with me Saturday evening, she says this particular student loves to sing and loves to dance. But last week this child was handcuffed and taken by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), along with other family members—two of whom are high school-aged kids. While they all remain jailed in Texas, classmates leave cards on the student’s desk and hang a welcome home banner they hope will be seen.

As someone who used to do quite a bit of betting on PredictIt, the response to Tesla's objectively shitty news today is similar to what used to happen when there was bad news regarding Trump or a GOP candidate: extremely online weirdos would use money to actively deny reality.

Never thought I’d say “I could listen to Jeff Teague talk all day,” but here we are

On top of everything else going on, my son has decided that his new favorite song is “All Star”

One of my favorite occurrences of temporary alliances is when people come together to keep cars that try to cut the highway exit line from merging in. All of a sudden you’re part of a passive aggressive Roman shield formation with total strangers

John Frusciante’s solo work is so criminally underrated. It’s aged with me far more than RHCP stuff

Liberal and moderate crypto influencers feeling very emboldened to say “I told you so.” Incredible reversal of sentiment over a matter of weeks.

Definitely feels like a serious vibe shift today. Among other things, the Portnoy in the coal mine.

No candidate or party can fix this widespread level of stupidity and denial. How do you combat the destruction of society by the naked pursuit of obscene wealth through propaganda, technology, and consumerism?

Technically, the Knicks don't a single uninjured center right now. I assume KAT is fine, but who's going to back him up?

The McIntosh apple has gone from the most ubiquitous varietal to a rare sight, at least in the city. I assume since it's easily bruised it's been replaced by all these designer apples developed by like the University of Washington or SUNY-Cortland or whatever. A real shame.

Just a crazy decision to have every character on Reacher say the phrase "Bizarre Bazaar" over and over
