NEWS: I am officially closing my attempt to dunk a basketball for an approximately two-year period of time, with a scheduled grand reopening of me dunking that will rival & surpass anything dunk that has taken place before. This announcement has nothing to do with the lack of interest in me dunking.

"The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone."
Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

Glen Taylor owns the Star-Tribune and just made $1.1 billion selling the Timberwolves but the paper refuses to regularly fund his own beat writer's travel to cover that team. He also recently shut down the strib's printing plant, it's now printed in Iowa. Funny how quote tweets are disabled for this

New from 404 Media: ICE's facial recognition app, which the agency is using to decide who to detain and deport, misidentified a woman. Twice.

ICE says results of the app are definitive and override a birth certificate; obviously this case shows the app is inaccurate

No surprise to librarians, but perhaps surprising to users, demands/prices for ebooks /audiobooks are killing public library budgets. David Szalay's book, Flesh,” costs DCPL:
$28.99 hardcopy
$59.99 ebook
$69.99 audiobook
DCPL owns hardcopy; rents & must repurchase ebook & audio book every 2 yrs.
Libraries can't afford e-books. D.C. lawmakers have a plan.
The demand and price for e-books is up — and it’s busting the D.C. Public Library budget.

On this, the first day of January, 2026, we recognize the 57-year anniversary of the Celtics’ Jim Barnes getting thrown 50 feet into a fence by a jet engine blast.

Barnes would miss the next nine games.
