Ginnekenmarkt, Breda in 1974 and today
The top image shows a cobbled square packed with parked cars on all sides, including a Mercedes, a Fiat 500 and a Ford, surrounded by metal railings. Patches of cobbles have been dug up around a central stone water pump. Today the same square, now a packed café terrace. Rows of wicker chairs and tables fill the space where the cars once stood, with people eating and drinking under large furled umbrellas. Mature trees with golden autumn leaves shade the square, and the same stone water pump still stands at the centre.

Hot take: I don't think social media made people dumber. We've been dumb this whole time. It's just that you used to have to have a job that people sent their dumb letters to, to notice. This made "Engaging with fools" an occupational hazard rather than the 24/7 experience it is presently.

Please, for the love of God, can the media stop calling random cranks who write fan fiction about their personal heroes in the past "historians."
Geoff Shepard, a former Nixon aide turned Watergate historian and revisionist, recently gave a two-hour presentation at Justice Department headquarters that laid out his theory that the deep state took Nixon down. The title of his 78-page slide deck: “Watergate As Lawfare.”

Reminder: SNAP has an outstanding ROI. Every dollar spent toward SNAP generates $1.54 in economic activity. SNAP cuts didn’t get the attention that Medicaid cuts understandably did, but they were massive and will prove deeply harmful to millions of Americans’ food security — and to local economies.

ok gonna get Sincere(TM) here for a second There's a lot of doomerism about how "We're all cooked" because "The GOP is trying to steal our votes." So here's the true story of how the GOP tried to steal our votes here in NC and FAILED. TWICE. Ballot fraud isn't final. It gets stopped all the time.

Sharing this again because it’s so totally spot-on. “Warrior,” as I’ve written about before, is a term utterly unfit for a citizen-soldier professional military. I want to buy @briankerg.bsky.social a beer or two for this. www.usni.org/magazines/pr...

The value of Graham Platner is that right up until all his red flags came toppling down upon him is that he is the most naked example of the amount of grace & credibility Simply Being White grants you. Compared to Abdul El-Sayed, who has to re-earn every ounce of credibility he has on a daily basis.
