I was walking down a street in New York and I thought how lovely it was, with the trees and the light. Tried to take a photo and this came out. It’s incredible how blind we become to the ugliness of cars. They really do mess things up. Yet somehow we manage to filter them out.

You're getting a clear X-ray of America right now.

Look at who this country's powerful institutions choose to elevate, venerate, and celebrate.

Look at the double standards.

Look at the people who adore Charlie Kirk - then spend five minutes reviewing his hateful legacy.

This is America.

I was very, very happy to see the Friedrich retrospective at the Met this year. One of my all time favorite painters

The National Review absolutely does not deserve Brian Eno.

Quincy Jones did the Blue Monday 88 remix. It was his label, Qwest Records, that released New Order material in the US after 1985.

I usually spot a least a couple of Scarlet Tanagers in my backyard per year. Such gorgeous birds! Always love seeing them.

Clearly it was divine intervention that broke the White Sox curse.

Reminds me of Game 1 of the 2010 World Series when I spotted Buzz Osborne of the Melvins in the stands at AT&T Park β€” I knew right then the Giants would break their own curse. Divine intervention.

I'm still not used to the paved paths and manicured lawns surrounding them. When I was growing up, they were just plopped in the middle of a dirt lot adjacent to a truck stop.

The gift shop inside the Apatosaurus was pretty fun.

Palo Alto in the 80s was a total vibe, which was sadly gone by the early 90s as tech started taking over everything.

Seems on brand for them. Dodgers are a trash franchise.

This scrum of pot-bellied, sunken-chested betas trying to bully an all-black clad badass Eastern European wasteland survivor while dressed like Men’s Wearhouse mannequins is peak cinema.

Not only reducing discourse to a game, but implying they’re the only ones entitled to play.

"Gulf of America" is just a loyalty test. It's a way of checking who is going to abrogate reality for no reason other than a cowardly refusal to stand up to the bully or an opportunistic willingness to toady up to one. Anyone who will call it that will help you round people up or look the other way.

We were always at war with Eastasia too, right Google?

Go take a long walk off a short pier. Into the Gulf of MEXICO.

People who don't understand hip-hop should not write about it. That eliminates the lead music critics at pretty much every major publication out there.
