Taking a break from football on a rainy Sunday to watch a baggy old man skulk down a hotel hallway (?) while a voiceover of him saying the word "globalists" in a Master Shake voice plays. And what's this, I also paid for it? Nice.

It will come as no surprise to anyone that the KY GOP is on a witch hunt, but read this and see the “professor should be fired or worse” implications for yourself.

The latest on the signs that Trump is planning on having installed around the Smithsonian's Museum of American History. A dozen signs for $84,000—cheap as far as propaganda goes, but ruinously expensive in terms of the national disgrace and embarrassment. www.theatlantic.com/culture/2026...

The Next Change Trump Has Planned for the Smithsonian

Once again, this was how the Economist characterized the American economy on Election Day in 2024. We had a country on the brink of stunning success, but the Republicans knee-capped it with trade wars and real wars of their own choosing.

The drop in SNAP enrollment in Kentucky just from July to August is huge — and more than 15k of them children The USDA is also contributing less and less. We’re talking millions fewer pounds of food going into local food pantries

A #BlueskyLullaby for tonight: This chill cover by A-ha of their own hit "Take on Me" strips away the original's ironic catchiness. Lead singer Morten Harket is very exposed here, so you can really appreciate his extraordinary falsetto and how well it suits the melancholy lyric. See you around.

It is genuinely bizarre that we’ve become acclimatized to right wingers throwing a tantrum every time a black person (particularly a black woman) is cast in something, but are also supposed to pretend that this is not racism but related to some other substantive concern.
