I literally could not believe this but look

Side by side comparison of the text of the constitution on congress’ website versus another source. The congress site version cuts off after the ‘to raise and support armies’ clause and section 9 & 10 are completely missing.

She has now been moved to Louisiana. This shouldn’t happen to *anyone* but it’s worth noting that she had a valid visa through next December. The whole Diocese of New York is furious, and I sure wouldn’t want those folks mad at me.

It is likely easy for the average person to eye-roll about professors complaining about students generating essays with bots, but the process of formulating an argument, a story, or a eulogy changes the writer, and, in its reading, can change readers as well.

Buffalo, Shakespeare in Delaware Park’s production of Richard III is cathartic as all get out! What a joy to see the play staged to bring out its current relevance, and what a pleasure to watch it from a picnic blanket, among clover and plantain, under the moon and stars.

This “rural people don’t deserve public broadcasting” lie has me looking to the Douglas Adams postcard. Radio Hitchhiker’s gave me such rare delight and wonder as an isolated Appalachian teenager. I never expected him to reply to my fan mail! That, and how, he did is still helpful.

Bright yellow stationery postcard with the name of Douglas Adams printed in red on the upper left corner. Handwritten in black is “Thank you for your letter, good to have helped with the problem of being fourteen. The obvious solution is to be fifteen for a bit. Best wishes, Douglas Adams”

the thing is that in wealthier, more liberal areas, the "viewers like you" may well make up the lost funding. in poorer, rural, more reactionary areas, that's the end of PBS and NPR and their affiliates

BUFFALO/WNY AREA can’t post video on here but sharing with permission: roughly an hour ago (9:30am), someone shared footage of possible 🧊 activity at the asian grocery store on niagara falls boulevard

Asked: do you know if they’re wearing any ID? Vests, weapons etc?
Answer: Weapons, vest didn’t notice any ids. A ton of unmarked vehicles and one border security vehicle

“Yes please share. I approach one of the guys to ask if everyone is ok. He kinda looked me up and down then said, they will be open in a couple hours and they are doing a search.”

Since it won't be on exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery in DC, seems like we ought to share this painting widely. Amy Sherald, Trans Forming Liberty, 2024.

Portrait of a Black woman against an absolutely matte pink background. She wears a blue evening gown, stands barefoot in contrapposto, and faces frontally with bright pink hair. Left hand on hip, she raises the other aloft holding a torch with not a flame, but orange flowers blooming atop. The pose evokes the famous Statue of Liberty.
