Every time someone unironically says "red state" 🙄, this is what I think about.

The heart just breaks. And I feel so angry at the people in power who don't give an actual damn about public health.
There's no new insights in this article, but the confused birds-eye view is quite fun until you remember these were the ghouls of 2018.
"...a reminder that ‘basic’ and ‘fundamental’ are not the same thing, regardless of whether we’re talking about a meal or the skills required to make it."

Another banger by Hanif Abdurraqib. (I wish I could make the things that dog me sound half as beautiful)
25+ years of living (and now raising a family) in cities, and I'm constantly mystified as to why Jane Jacobs "eyes on the street" concept mostly falls flat for my suburban/rural family.
A cooking zine titled "Fiery Recipes to Abolish Ice" with cute cartoon images of melting ice in a pan, angry chilies and flames.
This cutie arrived from Japan today - love a bit of surprise mail (aka MPLS aid kickbacks I forgot about) and I'm excited to dive into Bronwen Wyatt's maple-aleppo carrot galette.
do you want "Catholicism but american" we invented that, it's called Episcopalianism and it's even more woke. all the priests are lesbians. good luck
The Citi Field scoreboard showed the Artemis II astronauts returning safely to Earth tonight! 👏
Bob from Bob's Red Mill
The only CEO that ever saw heaven was Bob Moore from Bob's Red Mill and that's because he retired and gave the employees the company but he'd been doing profit sharing since 1990.
pope says call your fucken reps

The matter-of-fact way she asks what investors should do if Trump destroys Iran. Absolutely wild.
"Let's talk about tonight, this deadline that President Trump has set 8 p.m., has threatened to destroy a civilization. How does an investor process that? Is it a bigger upside risk or downside risk?"
listen if we must have a pope I think it’s great that we have one who’s logging on every day to post “went to the kingdom of heaven and nobody knew you, you little bitch”
Everyone pony the fuck fpr the librarian who just got sacked for refusing to remove LGBTQ books from the kids' section of the library.
This truly stinks for striving small restaurants, and every "pub grub" type-item in America is now the domain of Vanguard/BlackRock.
FRANCE: we're fancy
WORLD: ok
FRANCE: a fried ham sandwich is our national lunch

Yet never has so much been seen, so precisely, by so many people who understand so little of what they are seeing. A system can tell you where a man is. It cannot tell you what his death will mean for a nation. Such systems are trained on behavior, not on meaning — they can track what an adversary does but not what he fears, honors, remembers or would die for.
I genuinely think the president and many of his advisers, scammers, hustlers, and keyboard gangsters, don’t understand this concept at all and you can see it in the pattern of their mistakes from Minneapolis to Tehran www.nytimes.com/2026/03/29/o...
Good lord. Pure evil.
Mom texting me that the No Kings protest in Lafayette, Louisiana, is so crowded she's having trouble finding a place to park anywhere nearby (that's like Mardi Gras levels of crowded in Lafayette)
The Choctaw know how to spot vampires
New sign: Welcome to Manhattan: Hello, gorgeous! (street sign)
This is kinda fab! (And no, it's not AI.)
Not only do people not grasp it, you even get the phenomenon (I'm still looking for a catchy name for it) where knowing too much about X is seen as suspicious, so you are incentivized to be ignorant about X precisely to demonstrate your righteousness.
This predictably results in disaster.
Honestly the drama that's getting me out of bed each morning
Read all about how NYC filmmaker, programmer, and critic Caroline Golum transformed "Revelations of Divine Love"—the 14th-century text from Julian of Norwich about her visions of God—into a movie, complete with a shoestring budget, a Ridgewood warehouse, and a fortuitously timed solar eclipse:
My Calvinist farmer grandmother didn’t even recognize spaghetti as a food, and my great-grandmother was crippled by vitamin deficiencies - what a strange soundbite to circulate as gospel
Dems need to hold the line. The idea of ICE being put airports and cause harm to the entire air travel industry is so dangerous and stupid, but every place people have been forced to see the agency’s work up-close they realize it needs to be abolished. This is the domestic version of attacking Iran.
Emily on this mess is so good, but also holy shit what a killer headline
