When I was a kid — way back in the 1900s — casual nudity was common. This was after the era of nude swim classes, but nudity was still enforced in PE, as post-workout showers were required — and communal. We’ve lost something important. theatlantic.com/family/2025/11/naked-locker-room-end/684907/

Graphical text under two photos of Kristi Noem: If we're being honest, Kristi Noem rigging the property appraiser's exam while governor so her daughter could get her license, killing a puppy, and giving her married boyfriend a powerful job in government while cheating on her cross-dressing husband is not that unusual on the spectrum of Republican politician behavior.

For my Star Trek peeps.
Screenshot of a Facebook (?) comment by user roadhouseendgame:

i was talking to my mom about cardassians and said something along the lines of 'what must it be like to be a cardassian civilian. like abstractly knowing the rest of the galaxy thinks of your species as 'the evil ones' and kinda sorta knowing your government runs labor camps and torture prisons and is a military empire, and it's a huge deal for everyone else in the galaxy, but you just like run a restaurant so it's not a big part of your daily life, so you just like, go about your day and make soup and don't think about it' and then halfway through my sentence i actually heard myself and then had to go sit down for like ten minutes. like sat down in a chair and stared at the floor for ten minutes.

ICE is running a “conveyor belt” of illegally detained Minnesota families. Agents are arresting entire families with legal status and immediately shipping them off to Texas to deny them legal representation and avoid the federal courts in Minnesota. The cruelty is endless.

NYC's next mayor is a democratic socialist. What does that mean?
Democratic socialism doesn't have a one-size-fits-all definition. But its proponents emphasize a stronger role for the government over the economy to benefit the public.

You’ve probably heard someone talk passionately about a ”15-minute city” before. At its core, it's the idea that cities can be designed so that everything you need is no more than a 15-minute walk, bike ride or public transport trip away.
