I just reread Gatsby for the first time since high school. Still love it. I want to read his other books now. It's hard to believe they're now 100 years old.

Holy shit, Chuck Norris killed the Grim Reaper & took his place!

William S. Burroughs, Terry Southern, Allen Ginsberg, and Jean Genet at the '68 DNC in Chicago.

The last time America was this weird, some news outlets just threw up their hands, kept their journalists at home, and sent in the writers.

A new F-15EX Strike Eagle fighter runs about $90 million. The old ones from the '90s cost $30 million.

$90 million will buy you an affordable housing development or a Picasso. $270 million is a downtown skyscraper or Epstein Island.

Text: “According to a new survey by the Movement Advancement Project, approximately 401,000 transgender people have relocated from one U.S. state to another since the 2024 presidential election. The mass relocations in 2025 are due to the safety concerns, political conditions, and anti-trans laws and policies that have largely impacted conservative states across the country.” | Graphic: messy room with moving boxes and clothes, conveying relocation

NEW: 400,000+ transgender people have relocated from one US state to another since Trump’s second term

Mass relocations in 2025 have been caused by the spread of anti-trans laws and policies impacting conservative — and so-called blue — states across the country

Let's call it what is: these people have been internally displaced.

Yes, that's very much the vibe of the Monadnock Building. Gilded Age Spooky.

In Chicago, skyscraper triskaidekaphobia is less common the newer the construction, but some buildings buck the trend. The Sears Tower, once the world's tallest, is 1970s construction but lacks a 13th. Otoh the 1893 Monadnock building has one.

I'm particularly fond of the fact that for us, black cats are lucky.

Don't worry America, we gotcha. Just give us a sec…

Money needs art more than art needs money.

Don't forget this. It's true even in the era of AI.

I've been referring to them as store brand Black & Tans this whole time, so I fucking love this.

Normalize not calling them the Gestapo. They're not that scary. Or fashionable.

Norwegian leader says he received Trump message that reportedly ties Greenland to not receiving Nobel Peace Prize In a post on social media, PBS News' Nick Schifrin reported Trump reportedly said he no longer felt obligated to think purely of peace since he did not receive the Nobel Peace Prize.

Drumpf can't comprehend that the Norwegians mean it when they say the Nobel committee is independent.

If the committee were in the US, he'd do everything in his power to pressure them, laws be damned, so he's insulted their PM won't do the same.

The best source remains the statements of the women affected in their own words. They've all publicly spoken their truth in various forums.
As for the perpetrators, I don't give a shit about what was going on in their heads. It's all too familiar.

What Chris said... I actually knew one of the people targeted and saw what she went through. And I briefly crossed swords with one of the gamergate inflamers in the TTRPG community. I've never wanted to read more about it, having had a ringside seat.
