I honestly think that many people don't know what their public libraries offer besides books. I think that everyone should go on a public library treasure hunt in 2026. Go explore what your library systems offer at no cost to you. Report back to me :)
“I miss blockbuster video” the library has every dvd totally untouched and I never see you there

UPDATE: Another Chicago-area church has put up an immigration-themed Nativity scene.
A church member at Urban Village Church sent this one along, where Mary, Joseph and Jesus are gone and replaced with a sign that reads: “Due to ICE activity in our community, the Holy Family is in hiding.”

I love station wagons more than the average person (I own three) but if I wanted a 1970s wood paneled wagon I would just buy a vintage one.
Sean Duffy on slashing fuel economy standards: "This rule will actually allow you to bring back the 1970s station wagon. Maybe a little wood paneling on the side. We can bring back choice to consumers."

In the Apple HEIC vs EVERYTHING ELSE battle someone needs to give. I can’t import 100 photos into blurb only to find they can’t use 40 of them bcs they’re HEIC format. Either photo printers need to be able to use an HEIC or Apple needs to cut it out with that bullshit format

I wish I had an alt atm. I get who this ad is for. And running it on MNF makes a lot of sense. Lonely guys. They like and follow “bad” IG and TikTok type accounts of a certain type. They watch mnf. Production cost was low. Depends on their ad spend but probably a decent roi.
this ad that aired during MNF this week is extremely weird! like, what is the brand strategy here!?

It’s bad enough that Jamelle posts interesting and insightful political and historical commentary. Has a good IG profile with nice photographs (and reels). Now he’s striking that urge I have to buy a new film camera.
for those of you in the market, my local camera shop — which ships everywhere in the united states — has some great analog gear available. i'm especially enamored of what the owner calls a "FrankenLeica," a Leica M3 built from the bones of a Leica M1. www.procamera.us/product/fran...

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Benicio was arguably the best part of a movie that delivered on all aspects
PTA shut down production and ballooned the budget on this movie so he could cast Benicio del Toro, and the very first shot of him instantly proves it was worth it
