Enjoy the moment. There will be a day where there won't be another day. -CH.

One of the most convincing theories about Brand New Day is that MJ is slowly getting her memories of Peter back

First, she draws Peter in his Spider-Man: Homecoming suit at her apartment without realizing it

Second, at the end of the film she touches the necklace Peter bought her in Venice during Far From Home

Third, she’s seen returning to the Midtown School of Science rooftop in Queens, the exact place where she and Peter used to escape the crowd in No Way Home

And fourth, when Jean Grey freezes her, MJ cries. Jean’s powers can restore and repair memories. Most likely what she did fractured the spell and is letting them come back

Giannis leaving Milwaukee is just going to further prove how nobody watches the Bucks lol. Those numbers would genuinely be an average year for him but if he does it in Miami people will treat it like it's a career year

[Acyn @Acyn]

Mamdani: There is a term so often used to describe our nation and those who have shaped it: American exceptionalism. 

American exceptionalism, the conventional wisdom tells us, makes our freedom a little more free, is how we dug the Erie Canal and irrigated the West, is why children in far away lands grow up dreaming of one day moving here.

And yet the irony is that the story of America has so often been written by those who were told by others with power and influence and wealth that they were anything but exceptional.

For generation after generation, we have been told that when the world has sent its people to our shores, it has not sent its best. It sent Puritans and Sikhs and Quakers and Muslims and Jewish people who were banished for praying the wrong way, worshipping the wrong Gods, angering the wrong people. It sent peasants and serfs from who were treated as less because they hardly owned clothes, let alone land. It sent immigrants for whom power was something someone else had.

We are told that America is exceptional because we are richer, stronger, more powerful than everyone else.

The truth, my friends, is that America is exceptional because here, nothing is fixed into place. The frontier may be closed, we may have walked on the moon, but the work of fulfilling the values first enshrined in the Declaration of Independence-that work endures, my friends, and it belongs to us all.

It belongs too to our newest Americans, those standing here with me today, all of whom were recently naturalized. Nearly a decade ago, I too felt what you feel— the joy of no longer being just a New Yorker, but an American too.

My guy, I live in Texas and not a day goes by that my power company doesn’t ask me to moderate our power consumption.

You must be a moron.

This - not One Central- is where subsidies should go, stitching the Loop and the West Loop back together and providing the much needed Fulton Market green space that Park District mismanagement never provided for.

A legal trade framework between the Milwaukee Bucks and Miami Heat: @esidery

Bucks receive:
Bam Adebayo
Kel’el Ware
Pick 13
Three future FRPs

Heat receive:

MKE retool with Giannis, Miami get two upgrades at center and go allin. Per @espn

“And the king shall do according to his will; he shall exalt himself and magnify himself above every god, and shall speak astonishing things against the God of gods…He shall not give heed to any other god, for he shall magnify himself above all” (Daniel 15:36-37)

[David French @DavidAFrench]

If these are the stories we're getting now, just wait until after this miserable administration ends, and we start to get the full picture. We should be ashamed now. Our shame will only grow. Future generations will ask how we let this happen.

[True Vanguard @TheTrueVanguard]

Just remember that they moved heaven and earth to make sure no one can come into these facilities unless they're congressmen and they are given a 7 day warning so they can be prepared for their visit.

If you are NOT guilty of wrongdoing, you don't worry about accountability. It's the same reason I allow my wife free access to my phone. Imagine your wife's reaction if she asked to use your phone real quick since hers was upstairs and your response was, "give me a week and then you can use it." If you have nothing to hide, you don't introduce new policies to avoid accountability.

Even the access oversight individuals are given is extremely limited. They only get to see very specific parts of the facility, are barred from speaking with detainees, and are not allowed the means to document what they see in real time.

[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez @AOC]

Today DHS assassinated a VA nurse in the street, Bondi is attempting to extort voter files, and half the country is bracing on the eve of a potentially crippling ice storm with FEMA gutted.

So what is the President up to? Having a movie night at the White House.

He’s unfit.

[🌼🌹Raquel🌹🌼 @eternallyRaq]

Gestapo agent got mad at a whistle, slipped trying to get the whistler and then tackled the person he slid into because he got embarrassed.

ICE is full of the dumbest, most unfit and pathetic men you could find- unfortunately because they get violent as a result of their pride being bruised, this makes them dangerous.

[The Bulwark @BulwarkOnline]

Tapper: "Would any of those officers [on Jan. 6] been justified shooting and killing the rioters?"

Noem: "We don't pick and choose which situations laws are enforced and which ones aren't. Every single one of them is being enforced under the Trump administration."

Tapper: "I just showed you video of people attacking law enforcement officers…President Trump pardoned all of them, and you said that President Trump is enforcing all the laws equally. It's just not true. There's a different standard for law enforcement officers being attacked if they're being attacked by Trump supporters."

[Sarah Longwell @SarahLongwell25]

The Trump administration spent the first half of the week constructing an alternate reality about Jan 6th, which with all saw with our own eyes.

It will spend the back half of the week making up an alternate reality about the ICE shooting, which we all saw with our own eyes.

[Sarah Longwell @SarahLongwell25]

Whatever you think of the frame by frame camera angle, you can’t deny Kristi Noem and Donald Trump lied about what happened.

[Chris Mowrey @chrisdmowrey]

This month Donald Trump has fallen asleep twice during press conferences, exclaimed he got an MRI but didn’t know why, confused Armenia-Albania for Azerbaijan (again), has bandages over his bruised hands, and bragged about acing a dementia test he thought was a cognitive test. Fuck you.

[Nicholas Kristof @NickKristof]

As @propublica shows, @FoxNews misleads viewers to bolster a false narrative, splicing old clips and video from elsewhere to suggest that Portland is a war zone. This appears to be what led President Trump to try to dispatch national guard troops to suppress a nonexistent riot

[Anne Applebaum @anneapplebaum]

Can't think of another example of a global power so demonstratively burning its assets and destroying its influence, in a single document

[David French @DavidAFrench]

This is bizarre and unhinged behavior that would make you worry about any person you knew and loved. Imagine waking up and finding out your aunt or uncle or mother or father had done this. You'd be extremely alarmed. It's not just the volume, it's also the content.

[Heath Mayo @HeathMayo]

“President Trump has set free a private equity executive who had served less than two weeks of a seven-year sentence for his role in what prosecutors described as a $1.6 billion scheme that defrauded thousands of victims.

More than 1,000 people submitted statements attesting to their losses, according to prosecutors, who characterized the victims as ‘hardworking, everyday people,’ including small business owners, farmers, veterans, teachers and nurses.

‘I lost my whole life savings,’ one wrote, adding, ‘I am living from check to check.’”

*****
The whole “deport everyone including daycare teachers with no exceptions because they came here illegally and it’s the law!” argument really runs thin when those same folks let felons like this walk for no reason.
