Five years ago tomorrow, thousands of the president's supporters stormed the Capitol.

Trump has since dubbed Jan. 6 a "day of love."

Scroll through @propublica.org's massive trove of parler videos -- organized by time and location -- from that day and judge for yourself:
What Parler Saw During the Attack on the Capitol
ProPublica sifted through thousands of videos taken by Parler users to create an immersive, first-person view of the Capitol riot as experienced by those who were there.

I read The Odyssey for the first time this year. One of the unanticipated delights was finding details in O Brother that I hadn't realized harkened back (e.g. "He's a suitor!"). Highly recommended.
Look, I'm sure that Nolan's adaptation of "The Odyssey" will be fun, but I highly doubt it will be as good as the original.

I’m trying to decide which has brought me more satisfaction in life: being a Falcons fan or a Texas Democrat. It’s a real toss-up.

Astonishing to stop and realize that, at any given moment, bands of masked men armed to the teeth are storming churches and daycares, terrorizing entire communities—and that most of the country's political establishment barely blinks.

When I think about how exquisitely careful NEH staff were to be fair, impartial, and rigorous, and how much work people put into grants so small they’re pocket change…I just want to scream.
