Super-lovely new murals at the 42nd + 3rd entrance to the 7! Sharmistha Ray & Dannielle Tegeder’s Hilma’s Ghost (an homage to Hilma af Klint, apparently)

Since Israel is now going to try to play the pre-emptive strike card again, a brief history lesson of the first time they used this line, which remains the landmark case of the use of this term. In both cases they are propagandistic lies to justify aggression 🧡:

Fake populists like Trump would always rather face off against corporate Dems than economic populists and democratic socialists.

And Cuomo is the walking embodiment of everything that produced Trumpism.

Bottom line: this race matters and could turn the tide well beyond NYC.

Alt text: A tweet by Drop Site News reports that a senior advisor to Iran's Supreme National Council claims Iran has obtained a large trove of Israeli intelligence documents. The tweet summarizes alleged contents of the breach, including Israel’s nuclear development roadmap, U.S. weapons imports, bribes for Arab leaders, profiles of Israeli spies, personal data from social media users, infrastructure data, legal files, information on prisoners, Netanyahu’s personal files, secret documents, surveillance data, aerial images, CCTV footage, and a banned Knesset debate recording. The claims remain unverified, and the source is described as a known Iranian proxy. A quoted tweet from Mohammad Ghaderi references Iran’s statement on the documents’ significance.

Via Dropsite News: Israel just allegedly got completely pwned by the Iranians. They supposedly leaked everything, mossad files, nuclear secrets, details on bribes, Netanyahu's personal files.

If this is true, this is a historical failure of Israeli intelligence of epic proportions.

Allegedly JM was super jealous that AP was getting all the critical and awards attention, at least that is part of it from what I've heard (grains of salt).

This past week I rewatched the documentary WALL (2004) about the Zionist occupation that I brought up in a Twitter thread from you that led to a follow from you there. It's such a important work. And the below statement from a Palestinian is even moreso.

And for someone who is a pop culture junkie/chinephile, you are rewarded for your recognitions and also dissociated from the practice of art bc time is thing and a second is now this:

While I was waiting for the bus at the PA back to NJ, I looked up and saw one of the clocks they had in the hallway, but one of their weird things abt THE CLOCK is that it confronts you w/ time but at the same time to quote Kurt unsticks you from it.

Back in 2012 when it was @ Lincoln Ctr I saw all 24 hours. Got in and left at approx 4pm. You could take 10 min bathroom breaks so thank g-d a Duane Reade was next door so I snuck in food/drink and ill advised 5 hr energy drinks. Those f'ed me up. Revelatory experience tho.

I hate nice. Nice is for upper crust social gatherings to cover up for all the shit that they do when they aren’t there. Kind is relentless and unwavering devotion to others and the world.

You’re better off. You’re spending money on a name, and these schools are breeding grounds for capitalist milit-indust complex motherfuckers like Mayo Pete.

One of my prized possessions, a replica of a portable suitcase museum that Duchamp had curated and designed. About 200-300 of the actual ones exist.

Remember when she did the triple lutz triple toe loop at Grenoble in 1968? So elegant.

I loved that scene, not just as an art historian, but the parallels and the absolutely dry British humor.

As Suppression of Dissent Increases, Know Your Rights If the FBI Comes Knocking The FBI is hassling Palestine activists. ICE is compiling dossiers on those who criticize it. Let’s know our rights.

People are often inclined to think that, if they’ve done nothing β€œwrong,” they won’t get caught up in the government’s surveillance dragnet. But in simply exercising your First Amendment right to criticize the Trump administration, you, too, could be placed under government watch.

if you want artists to make weirder art, you have to create stable living conditions that allow them to. homogeneity isn't a matter of artists lacking culture-- there are many soulful artists out there-- it's a matter of unregulated corporate dominance combined with artists who cant afford to create
