i really don't understand how that Black man can fail to recognize the white man in the truck with him wants to do the exact same thing to him they spend all day doing to others

4/ Fernando Vasquez, an 18-year-old citizen, was on break from work when agents chased and handcuffed him, then put him in their truck.
After realizing their mistake, the agents left the teen alone in the woods, with no way to get home.
Then they threw his ID out of the truck.

I was just about to leave Central Park's Grassy Knoll this morning, when I heard a Northern Flicker calling to me. Of course, I turned around and there he was! 🥰🥰🥰 #Flicker #CentralPark #birdsseenin2026

ZIP is an acronym for "Zone Improvement Plan." Introduced on July 1, 1963, the basic format consisted of 5 digits. In 1983, an extended ZIP+4 code was introduced; it included the 5 digits of the ZIP Code, followed by a hyphen and 4 digits that designated a more specific location.

A relative who is a fairly decent musician has been telling us he has been using AI to generate music in his style. But he told me as an aside that really it feels like masturbation. Proposal to call people who generate “ai art” in any form ‘slop wankers’.

Been experiencing this myself. Took home 1/2 my restaurant pasta portion twice recently. Careful to stop before the bite that is too much, leading to an hour of postprandial discomfort. This is easy though, 98% of the time. Interest in booze, never high, nearly gone, tho' still like a cocktail.

Also, if Democrats get in and DON'T immediately start on investigations and impeachment, we are SCREWED on the world stage. No other country will ever trust us again. Every nation will believe that Democrats are no different than Republicans and move accordingly. We will be powerless.

Hitler stops a Jewish man on the sidewalk. Pointing a gun at him, Hitler says, eat the dogshit off the curb. The man bends over, but then grabs the gun and tells Hitler, “no, you eat the dogshit!” Hitler does, and the man runs. Arriving home he says, “honey, guess who I had lunch with today!”

“Frog, Frog,” cried Toad, “taste these cookies that I have made.” Frog ate one of the cookies, “These are the best cookies I have ever eaten!” said Frog.

Frog samples one of Toad's cookies, which are the best cookies he has ever eaten.

I really wish I lived in a world where it isn't so damn refreshing - and more than a little shocking - to see front-loading of the idea that men have absolute, unqualified agency over, and responsibility for, their own sexual (mis)conduct.

Mamdani holds Sliwa's hand so he doesn't faint getting a flu shot. No wonder the right wing media has stopped talking about our Scary Radical Mayor.

A doctor gives former Republican mayoral candidate Curtis Sliwa a flu shot on camera while the mayor, who already got his, holds his hand. Everyone is laughing.

So I get on the L train at 14th at 2am after a very nice party in Manhattan. Train is clean, bright, plenty of people but still plenty of space. There's a young woman stretched out fast asleep on one of the rows of seats. I think hey, good for her, and sit down nearby.
