“These garbage bins will be UGLY. They will be covered with all kinds of gross garbage materials. Also, it will remove much needed parking spots. We have to end this push to put these anti-NYC garbage bins on our streets”

Dems had a trifecta for like 41 days and immediately gave tens of millions of Americans healthcare

If Clinton, a white woman, received the white support that Harris, a non-white woman, received, she would have become president

If Harris, a non-white woman, received the non-white support that Clinton, a white woman, received, she would have become president

This whole thing is absurd

The legacy of DOGE is not that it failed. It's that it destroyed:

1. faith in real cost conscious governance
2. the careers of committed govt employees
3. scientific research and the biomedical breakthroughs that come with it
4. countless lives of the world's poorest

[Eugenia Kuyda @ekuyda]

I’ve been thinking about this David Foster Wallace quote more and more recently

“The technology is just gonna get better and better and better and better. And it's gonna get easier and easier, and more and more convenient, and more and more pleasurable to be alone with images on a screen, given to us by people who do not love us but want our money. Which is all right. In low doses, right? But if that's the basic main staple of your diet, you're gonna die. In a meaningful way, you're going to die."

This is one of the craziest ideas I've ever seen. He converted a drawing of a bird into a spectrogram (PNG -> Soundwave) then played it to a Starling who sung it back reproducing the PNG.

Hi, this is Meg Barnette, Brad's wife.

While escorting a defendant out of immigration court at 26 Federal Plaza, Brad was taken by masked agents and detained by ICE.
