it’s breathtaking to see how this country is in decline by every possible metric
Devastated to learn that Univ of Texas at Austin is closing the American Studies dept. The years I spent there earning my PhD were formative, making me the teacher, thinker, and writer I am today. I've passed on what I learned at UT to thousands of students over the past 20 years. Just awful.

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

At 9:18, 3rd period of the Finland-Switzerland women's ice hockey QF game, the ice crew came to clean the ice during a pause
What follows is the funniest use of the slo-mo alternate angle tech I've seen them use during these Olympics of one of the crew members falling

Why yes, I did spend part of my Saturday night trying to see which random former Twins players are on LinkedIn.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.
CCTV footage appears to show DHS agents posing as people having car trouble in order to lure a target out of his house before arresting them. The target comes out and starts helping them before 3 vehicles surround the scene. The car "experiencing" trouble then drives off with them.

This subscription was a no-brainer. Can't wait to see where Douglas County ranks.
There are 87 counties in Minnesota. I'm ranking them from 87 to 1 for the next 87 Thursdays, give or take holidays.

One effect of the last two months I hope becomes permanent is that white Minnesotans — who blithely accept that Somali, Hmong, Latinx, and other immigrant communities share this space, but don't really engage with them — start to really see how rich this community can be when everyone is valued.

"Drink enough before the game so you don't remember what actually happens on the field" is an interesting strategy.
Twins are leaning into the pregame happy hour concept at Target Field this season, especially on Fridays and Saturdays.

She really just said why are you talking about the mass coverup of child rape when you should be talking about money
Bondi crashes out over Epstein: "The Dow is over 50,000 dollars! I don't know why you're laughing. You're a great stock trader as I hear, Raskin. The Dow is over 50,000 right now. The S&P at almost 7,000, and the Nasdaq smashing records. That's what we should be talking about."

The continued description of coal as "beautiful" is just so weird to me.
Burgum: "CO2 was never a pollutant. When we breathe, we emit CO2. Plants need CO2 to survive and grow. They thrive with more CO2. So the whole endangerment thing opens up an opportunity for the revival of clean, beautiful, American coal."
