I'm not saying I'm a huge #Prince fan, I'm just saying I set my VPN to Minneapolis when I'm on the library WiFi.

Ok, let's talk about summer reading and "beach reads" for a minute. I work in a public library down the Jersey Shore and once removed sand from a book by Sigmund Freud. Someone packed this title in their beach bag. You're FINE.

If this were a business, which it most certainly is not, the IRS would be a profit center and the military would be a cost center.

“If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.” A classic quote from Malcolm X, who was assassinated 60 years ago today.

I always think it’s important to point out (since it usually is little discussed these days) that Rosa Parks was fired from her seamstress job in Montgomery and was basically blacklisted from being employed in the city. She had to move to Detroit because of discrimination after this.

The usual suspects are out there yelling "There are 23 million government workers! Fire most of them!" No awareness that most work for local governments, and most of *them* are schoolteachers. Federal employment hasn't grown since the 1950s

So this is fun: public schools keep massive records of each student, it’s called a cumulative file, or “cum file” for short, pronounced ‘cyoom’. there’s a special room they keep them all in for security. right next to the cafeteria.

a picture i took at an elementary school of a door that is marked “cum room”.

we are now officially at the "elon told his mommy to scold the president" stage of whatever the hell is going on

Tweet from Maye Musk stating "I am the mother of @elonmusk His goal is to make this world a better place. @POTUS wants to stop him. Have you any idea how furious I am? People in other countries are proud of Elon and do not understand the US President's motive. Please tell me how I should answer them."

That’s pretty much my reaction when reading wordless installation instructions.

This statement from Biden about Henry Kissinger is one cold-blooded shiv of a paragraph, to a degree that I truly didn't expect we were going to get. I'm impressed.

Statement from President Biden on the Passing of Henry Kissinger

Briefing Room
Statements and Releases

I’ll never forget the first time I met Dr. Kissinger. I was a young Senator, and he was Secretary of State—giving a briefing on the state of the world. Throughout our careers, we often disagreed. And often strongly. But from that first briefing — his fierce intellect and profound strategic focus was evident. Long after retiring from government, he continued to offer his views and ideas to the most important policy discussion across multiple generations. Jill and I send our condolences to his wife Nancy, his children Elizabeth and David, his grandchildren, and all those who loved him.

That Home Depot/milkshake analogy is going to live absolutely rent-free in my head forever.

Tweet: "I feel like some people need to relearn genre expectations... 'Man, this tragedy sucks! Why didn't they just do XYZ, then everything could have ended happily!' well, then it wouldn't be a tragedy, would it. 'Man, this lighthearted teen romcom is terrible, it's so sappy and unrealistic!' Well, yeah. If it had been gritty and dark it wouldn't have been a lighthearted romcom, would it. Is the writing actually bad or are you just trying to order a milkshake from a Home Depot.
