I believe that's the art of Hiroshi Nagai, a Japanese painter who developed this style after traveling to the United States in 1973
This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

I think this is my favorite single photo from 2025. I’m not sure exactly why but I think it’s because of how casual the Bobcat looks.

In 2024, the Department of Justice found that the Trenton police “ignores officer misconduct in plain sight.” A city council member hopes to create a civilian oversight board there, but state law prevents these boards from having real investigatory powers.
New Jersey Cities Are Pressing Resistant State Officials for Civilian Police Oversight
Local officials in Newark, Jersey City, and Trenton want civilian agencies that can investigate police and issue subpoenas. But they keep running into the state’s Democratic leaders.

At the risk of hugging the third rail, the truth of the academic job market, at least in history or classics, is neither DEI or anti-DEI.
It is that that 1) there are no jobs and 2) our hiring culture treats candidates like they 'spoil' after a few years.
No one knows who is mediocre or not.
