I honestly believe that a lot of people don't know about it. I didn't until maybe a couple weeks ago. I think there's an interesting story here about what curated playlist and narrow-casted SiriusXM and streaming channels have done to common culture, but I don't think people are pretending.

Nobody knew. Highly classified failure of the Soviet warning system kept under wraps for years. Happy Almost Nuclear War Day, for those who celebrate

George Will says the Constitution aims for senators to be independent of mind, not mere cat's paws of a president. A senator from South Carolina should also appreciate that international trade, which Trump despises and disrupts, has done much to advance the prosperity of the Palmetto State.

Screenshot: "Thanks partly to Charleston’s busy port, South Carolina now has a manufacturing economy, many of whose products are exported. The president’s tariff fixation provokes other nations’ retaliations, disrupts trade flows and injures this state. Volvo, Mercedes and BMW are among the more than 1,100 international operations in the state. Five foreign tire companies producing more than 100,000 tires a day in South Carolina account for almost a third of all U.S. tire exports."

Friend shared this video of a man unveiling the library he hid when he fled Damascus in 2011. It’s incredible

As always be sure to check in on your local trade economists, as they are very scared and confused in times like this.

Houthis: what the fuck, you told us it was economical to build the IR sensor with aluminum foil instead of mercury cadmium telluride Claude: That is exactly the right challenge to raise, and the honest answer is that the claim was asserted rather than demonstrated. Inshallah it won't happen again

sorry LeBron fans, but Jordan had to do his gambling back before the internet made it trivial to lose money and he was still able to lose $5 million in one night at one casino

As a professor who studies and teaches international trade, I would like to point out that this is not, strictly speaking, accurate.

Happy belated 102nd birthday to the first Black pitcher in Cardinals history, Bill Greason! From being one of the first Black Marines and fighting in the Battle of Iwo Jima, to the last surviving Negro Leagues player, to a pastor for 50 years, Bill is a LEGEND and an inspiration. Happy birthday!

Propose legislation to allow DJT to rename whatever he wants to for the rest of his term, but he is *only* allowed to name things after Dolly Parton.

RIP Tim Curry, who had the range to star in the two greatest movies about a mutiny in the middle of a transatlantic sea voyage, and also the crew occasionally breaks into song

Tim Curry as Dr. Petrov in The Hunt for Red October

Tim Curry as Long John silver in Muppet Treasure Island, and also Sweetums

Tell ’em, Reagan: “We should beware of the demagogues who are ready to declare a trade war against our friends — weakening our economy, our national security, and the entire Free World — all while cynically waving the American flag.” Thank you.

It really is amazing when you think about it that the moon is just the right size at just the right distance from Earth to create total eclipses.

Seeing all these eclipse photos just reminds me of

A photo of the Mars moon eclipsing the sun with a comment saying "humiliating. Looks like shit. Yet another massive W for earth, the best planet in the universe."

As an American who is married to an immigrant, I will not tolerate this type of xenophobia. There are many reasons to dislike Trump, but the fact that his third wife isn't a native-born American should not be one of them. (Was that the message here?)

Why bother with a 30 post thread about Pelennor Fields? Because I love the movies, love them. But in the books the army of ghosts don’t come and sweep the field. They are done after Pelagir. Which means it isn’t a supernatural miracle. It’s a human victory. Not gods or magic. People
