Fuck ChatGPT flyers. The future is broadsheets.

A crowded broadsheet with way too many fonts. It says:

Stretch them

No whitespace

I mean, the defense of the Kennedy Center is heartwarming and all, but my neighborhood is on day 3 of National Guard patrols and it’s already forgotten. This is how fascism takes hold

Seeing some people refer to what is happening with Mitch McConnell right now as elder abuse is a reminder that many—even among those who hate him—don't realize what a singularly destructive force he has been and how it warms his leaking portapotty of a soul to do a little more damage on his way out.

I'm sure they do the scheduling to ensure they get TV views on the west coast, but I'm not sure how the US Open can justify the crazy in-person prices while also having the biggest QF men's match start at like 10:30 PM.

In 1957, a T ride cost 20¢. Adjusted for inflation, that's $2.40, exactly what the T costs today (well, $2.41, but close). The Turnpike from 128 to New York cost $2.45. Adjusted for inflation, it would be equivalent to $29.64. Driving the length of the Pike costs $4.25 today.

This post is making the rounds but FYI, it's misleading. The Trump administration cut these trees down in October 2025, almost a year ago. This work isn't new. It's sad but these terrace garden beds facing the Potomac are too shallow for willows to grow forever and several were damaged by storms.
