Watching Netflix's "1975" (I was a little kid then) -- and am I wrong that Werner Erhard is an asshole? The clip they show makes him out to be a douche, whether they meant to or not. Can't imagine why anyone threw money at him. Yikes.

The Reflecting Pool paint is peeling badly. Visitors have reportedly been taking chunks of it home as “Trump failure” souvenirs. For a project that was touted as fixed and improved, the current condition is raising a lot of questions about the quality of the work and how taxpayer money was spent.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani behind the counter of a bodega in The Bronx, flanked by various people. A journalist with a microphone labeled “Shop Cats” is standing in front of the sales counter, and holding the mic up to a black and white cat sitting on the counter next to bananas.

“To all Sikh New Yorkers: Happy Khalsa Sajna Diwas and Vaisakhi!

This joyous holiday commemorates the founding of the Khalsa by Guru Gobind Singh ji, a defining moment that established the Sikh identity and its call to serve humanity selflessly, protect the religious rights of all, and stand against political oppression, tyranny, & discrimination.

May we all carry forward the spirit of Vaisakhi as we work together to build a city rooted in freedom and belonging for all.”

I frequently laud the wisdom of "Don't engage, just block" when it comes to trolls on social media, but here on Bluesky I also want to remind people that you can detach quotes and use "mute for all" for comments when you find either in bad faith, aside the point or otherwise problematic. Try it!

During the 1970s oil crisis, the Netherlands 🇳🇱 realized car dependency was a trap and built world-class bike infrastructure. The US 🇺🇸 just invented "Right on Red" to supposedly save gas and accepted the pedestrian casualties. Two approaches, two very different outcomes. A new NJB video. 👇

Throughout recorded history there have been non-religious people who have believed that this life is the only life we have, that the universe is a natural phenomenon with no supernatural side, and that we can live ethical and fulfilling lives on the basis of reason and humanity.
What is humanism? Humanism is a non-religious approach to life, centred on living a meaningful, ethical life based on reason and compassion. Humanists see the universe as a natural phenomenon with no supernatural side, and look to science to answer questions about the natural world. Humanists believe this life is the only life we have, so they focus living well in the here and now, guided by empathy and our shared humanity.

Has anyone ever ordered a custom window cushion from Amazon or Etsy and had a good experience? I want to make this area more cat-friendly (yes it is already pretty friendly)—it’s too narrow to actually be a seat. I could also cut the foam myself and maybe find someone to sew?

The bible quoting is extra gross in that you realize that many of the folks (& Drumpf especially) are creeper pedos who have ZERO business trying to quote the bible -- as they are not an example of how to behave in a just and moral world.

Ted Lieu confirmed what we always knew to be true! He says the Epstein files contain highly disturbing allegations of Trump “raping and threatening to KILL children”. Trump is the FILES. He raped, beat, trafficked & killed young girls. Ages as young as 12 & 13 yrs old. HE RAPED KATIE JOHNSON!
