Ex-boss filed a $12 theft charge against an ex-employee because she got a restraining order in response to his creepy behavior. Charge was never prosecuted, but it gave ICE an excuse to arrest and detain her. Congratulations to the 58 Democrats who voted for the Laken Riley Act. You own this.

Ah yes, perhaps the most beloved literary trope of all: the classic McMuffin

A screenshot that reads: Moore throws in a Hitchcock-style McMuffin in the shape of a secret tape recording which will reveal just who has been betraying the gangsters.
The problem is that no-one has a machine on which to play it.

Yet more tales from P.S. 186:
Today, two of the words my students had to use in sentences were "speed" and "seem". My two favorites:
"Look, Dad. That guy is on speed!" and "It seems like you're going to die."

Portraying the choice to give the Nobel Peace Prize to a respected jurist of international law as being opposed to Holocaust remembrance is going to destroy Holocaust memory more than anything else. This will convince people the Holocaust crowds out other genocides and is in competition with them.

Today, I celebrated Italian-American culture appropriately: I ate a big-ass sandwich with capicola, Genoa salami, ham, provolone, mozzarella, olive salad, and giardiniera on sourdough foccacia. Going to NYC next week to eat a veal parm the size of a toilet seat.

Also it’s time for the news to stop treating this administration’s racist war against Somalis as “Trump being Trump.” They targeted Minneapolis because they hate an ethnic group here, and now they’re targeting the most prominent political figure in that group with thinly rationalized state violence.

dc statehood is non-negotiable after trump's actions in his second term. republicans despise the people of the city that hosts them, and there is little reason to think that, now that the seal is broken on treating them as an occupied population, a next republican president will be more restrained

Bassist here. Dear Prudence might be my favorite bass part ever — the way Paul combines a low D pedal with a descending tenor voice and likes them with glissandi is just awesome. Also dig the way he comes in on beat three of every measure at the beginning.

Ossoff and El-Sayed took different tacks tonight vs their opponents—El-Sayed was more of a subtext of “you dumb fucking racist jackass” while Ossoff’s was more “if you fell down at a gas station I’d toss a lit match on you”—and I don’t think either of those is a bad choice tbh
