Picture of a page of Neil postman’s “amusing ourselves to death. It reads “…merge it in a Niagara of similar opinions, and convert them into—what else?-another piece of news. Thus, we have here a great loop of impotence: The news elicits from you a variety of opinions about which you can do nothing except to offer them as more news, about which you can do nothing. Prior to the age of telegraphy, the information-action ratio was sufficiently close so that most people had a sense of being able to control some of the contingencies in their lives. What people knew about had…” the page then ends
a bluesky post from 2024, from @smilingnodding. it reads " every new restaurant in every major city is either called Thistle + Thorn and thinks adding turmeric to brussel sprouts makes them worth $30 or is called Burger Bitch and has a neon sign in the window that says "im gonna fuck a hamburger"
[Chorus: Dev Hynes & Debbie Harry] Choosing what you live for It's never what you make your life How could you know if you're squandering your passion for another? Do you ever think, boy? Or does it just feel better alone? Feeling the comfort of sadness in a new set of surroundings
Janet Mock: So, like, my favorite images are the ones where someone who isn’t supposed to be there—who’s, like, in a space, a space where we were not ever welcomed in, we were not invited. Yet we walk in and we show all the way up. People try to put us down by saying, “She’s doing the most,” or, “He’s way too much.” But, like, why would we want to do the least?

Two things I’m very proud of: being a furry number two being a gamer meme, as the sleep screen of a small, iPod classic sized e reader
Genius annotation of a lyric of the song quoted below. The highlighted lyric is "Out in the street, they call it merther..." which is explained by genius dot com the following way: "In these lines Kamoze compares the feeling of listening to this kind of music to what people in the streets vulgarly call “merther” The term merther is a slang term of West Indian origins, often used in Jamaican patois, that denotes the sensations produced by smoking Marijuana while listening to dub reggae. The merging and distortion of sense impressions that occurs during the cannibonoid trance. This word has been infamously mistaken for murder throughout the years of existence of this song."

The "canadarm" on the space shuttle. from the image description: STS-72 Mission Specialist Winston Scott (EV3) installs a thermal cube in preparation for Detailed Test Objective (DTO) 833 - Extravehicular Mobility Unit (EMU) Thermal Comfort.

A screenshot of the song, Gold by Kiiara as it appears in a Spotify playlist. Despite being a song that came out in 2016, Spotify describes it as an “83 slow jam, whose bassline 80 launched a thousand hip-hop flips.”
a scan of a badge of me, keeble! this badge shows a colored pencil drawing of me, a gallinule furry. They wear a blue bandana around their neck and a punk-y tank top while doing a VERY gay thing with their wing. They look friendly and a bit high and VERY ho-mo-sexual.

Comic strip of Calvin's Parents in Bed: MOM: Are you still awake too? DAD: Mm-hmm. I was thinking. It's funny...when I was a kid, I thought grown-ups never worried about anything. I trusted my parents to take care of everything, and it never occured to me that they might not know how. DAD: I figured that once you grew up, you automatically knew what to do in any given scenario. I don't think I'd have been in such a hurry to reach adulthood if i'd known the whole thing was going to be ad-libbed.
According to the pew research center, a majority of U.S. adults (59%) say they don’t want to get an updated COVID-19 vaccine. This is roughly identical to the share who said in October 2024 that they probably wouldn’t get the updated vaccine. In the new survey, 26% of Americans say they do want an updated vaccine. Another 13% say they already got one as of late October 2025.
“I think for a long time, it’s felt as if the safest place, especially as a Muslim in public life, was to be in the shadows,” Mamdani said. “And yet we see that that safety is all too tenuous. And to allow ourselves to be intimidated is to, in some ways, allow for the continuation of that very kind of politics.”

screenshot of wikipedia, a section titled "Cream of Rice". It reads: "Despite the many similarities between the products, Cream of Rice had an entirely separate origin and history to Cream of Wheat prior to 1983 when they were united under Nabisco. The Cream of Rice Company, a Delaware corporation based in Chicago, was incorporated by T. C. Fredrich, O. C. Wilson, and Howard D. Stewart in October 1915.[8] Frank O. Balch, the company's secretary and treasurer, filed a trademark application for the "Cream of Rice" logo in December 1915. The trademark was registered in 1917. The company reported strong sales initially and market penetration of over half of retail stores in..." After that, the screenshot abruptly cuts off
Cambridge City Councilor Marc McGovern, who happens to also be a licensed social worker, said he empathized with local businesses, and focused on that why question. Shoplifting, he argued, is "a symptom of other things. If you're stealing food, then that's a symptom of food insecurity and hunger. If you're stealing things to sell them on the street, then that's an economic issue. If you're stealing and then selling goods to buy drugs, that's a substance misuse issue." I asked him about this supposition, which I heard repeatedly in my reporting: Nonprofits in Central Square offer more and more services to unhoused people, which leads to a bigger unhoused population in Central, which, inevitably, leads to more retail crime, which leads to more empty storefronts. He replied by noting every person struggling in Central is someone's child, someone who has family and friends. "I'd rather be a community where people of all types feel safe and supported, than a community that turns its back on other human beings," he replied. "But I'm not saying that's easy."
N A 1964 SYMPOSIUM on Jewish writers and Jewish identification, Leonard Cohen unleashed a bitter censure on the state of Jewish life. That the balance had tipped so far in favor of “the material, secular, artificial, ethnocentric” at the expense of the “spiritual, ecstatic, natural, experiential” disturbed him. “There is an awful truth which no Jewish writer investigates today, which no Jewish poet articulates,” he said. “It is a truth that the synagogues and the cultural establishment cannot efface. And it is this truth: We no longer believe we are holy.” He continued: "The absence of God in our midst is a deep rotten cavity that has killed the nerve of the people . . . and we will die very badly for our choice, and our monuments will be new parochial schools, and the State of Israel, and a militant Anti-Defamation League, and maybe even a Jewish President of the United States. Well, to hell with these mausoleums! . . . Before we begin, we must face that despair that none of us dares articulate, that we no longer feel we are holy. And our writers will continue to be sociologists and cataloguers. There will be no psalms, there will be no light, there will be no illumination, until we can confess the position into which we have decayed . . . Let us refuse the title “Jew” to any man who is not obsessed by God. Let that become the sole qualification of Jewish identity . . . Let us declare a moratorium on all religious services until someone reports a vision, or breaks his mind on the infinite. Jews without God are lilies that fester. "

A picture of a kindle, with a page from east of Eden opened. The following passage is highlighted: “His calves missed the hug of leggings and his throat felt naked without its tight collar. He arrived in Chicago, and there, for no reason, rented a furnished room for a week, stayed in it for two days,”
from wikipedia: "The Vietnam Veterans Memorial, commonly called the Vietnam Memorial, is a U.S. national memorial in Washington, D.C., honoring service members of the U.S. armed forces who served in the Vietnam War. The two-acre (8,100 m2) site is dominated by two black granite walls engraved with the names of those service members who died or remain missing as a result of their service in Vietnam and South East Asia during the war. The Memorial Wall was designed by American architect Maya Lin and is an example of minimalist architecture.[2] "
Tilted Arc was a controversial public art installation by Richard Serra, displayed in Foley Federal Plaza in Manhattan from 1981 to 1989, shown here. It consisted of a 120-foot-long (37 m), 12-foot-high (3.7 m) solid, unfinished plate of rust-covered COR-TEN steel. Advocates characterized it as an important work by a well-known artist that transformed the space and advanced the concept of sculpture, whereas critics focused on its perceived ugliness and saw it as ruining the site. Following an acrimonious public debate, the sculpture was removed in 1989 as the result of a federal lawsuit and has never been publicly displayed since, in accordance with the artist's wishes.
