“All you need in this life is ignorance and confidence, and then success is sure.” Mark Twain once said this and I really hate how true it is.

The three players in this photo: 1. Nigerian heritage, grew up in England, and is only a citizen thanks to birthright citizenship. 2. Born + raised in Holland, has a dad who immigrated to the US from Suriname. 3. Said he wanted to “make people who look like me proud” while playing on Juneteenth

You have not truly lived until you have been to a middle school orchestra concert. There's like 60 kids here playing various stringed instruments all on a different page. I love it.

Just need everyone to know that the Belgium men's soccer team has new jerseys based on the art of Rene Magritte and this is the official photo shoot

GEO Group (and DHS) think they have the power to forbid a member of Congress from speaking to people locked up in Delaney Hall: www.motherjones.com/politics/202...
New Jersey Senator Andy Kim was pepper-sprayed when he tried to enter Delaney Hall last month, and as my colleague Alex Nguyen reported, he was forced to directly call Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin for admittance. Kim returned Saturday morning to try again-and this time, he made it inside.
But even Kim wasn't able to find out much about the conditions there: "They refused to let me talk to any detainees," he told me as he exited Delaney Hall.
"They told me that if I were to speak to any detainees, the oversight tour would immediately be cut off and stopped. This is impeding my ability to lawfully do the oversight that I'm legally allowed to do, and I told them 1 thought this was a deep breach of my responsibilities and what the American people are demanding."
What he was able to see was disturbing.

We need a “how they did it” interview with the lead cameraman and planners behind this halftime show ASAP. That was one of the most impressive logistical accomplishments I’ve ever seen

There is an area in the ICE detention center in Minneapolis designated specifically for American citizens. Contemplate that for a minute.

What’s amazing about this story is that they *reversed* it. It’s not just a treatment that can stave it off or delay it. It *cures* Alzheimer’s. I know lots of research initially seems hopeful in mice and then doesn’t go anywhere, but this could be momentous. I cried.

Dear listeners, When the days feel narrow and the noise gets loud, try a song. Not as escape — as evidence. Someone, somewhere, once felt this too and made something that still holds. If hope is hiding, it often hums first.

I want to meet the person at the Ontario provincial government who found quality audio of an anti-tariff speech by Ronald Reagan and thought to use it in an ad during the ALCS. They've got to be feeling the kind of high that only comes along once or twice in a career.

I let Jerry Springer cut in front of me in line at the Walgreens pharmacy on Michigan Avenue and Chicago. He was carrying a biography of Andrew Jackson with him.

My family still send me news clippings from Chicago, in case I miss my local pocket of crazy. There is positively no rhyme or reason to what they send. Lotta obits now, and then it’s like “news of the weird.”

I unapologetically love Now and Then. A triumph of technology in that it feels more satisfying to listen to than the previous 2 Anthology tracks despite those being perfectly lovely tunes, they made John sound ghostly.

I was at Gutenberg: The Musical (it was very fun!) and all they play is Billy Joel at the intermissions. It makes a ton of sense in that it’s rock music for people that love musical theatre.
