Luge is *feet* first, Skeleton is head/beak first.
Stupid bird didn't have a chance anyway.
TRAGIC BREAKING NEWS: Our nation’s Olympic hopeful in the Luge event, (Jack Holloway) will not be competing for a medal this year.

He did not complete his time trial, as Holloway pulled a mussel. Quite a few actually. Absolute peckish muppet.

Some of you may recall we previewed a project we're working on, The Reconstruction Papers. We've made a lot of progress in lining up all the essays we need, and are working on the logistics of doing a printed issue for the first time www.liberalcurrents.com/a-preview-of...

Fire bad!
Tree pretty!
No fires in Minneapolis! We are traumatized still and vast sections of Lake Street are still razed and flat as farm fields, fires spread, fires bring unexpected consequences. No fires!! Will is 100% right, no fires. There were other fires set on Nicollet that day too, all very very bad. No fires!

Make no mistake though: "infighting" among progressives is productive. Ideas are shared, impasses create spawn new movements if not entire orgs.

This is far more preferable than allegiance no matter what.
History doesn't always disclose why the SCLC, SNCC, and NAACP ran concurrently instead of merging when they were all working toward the same goal.

You'll notice that only the NOI and BPP get marginalized.

Internal politics within even Civil Rights history.

Modern version?

Purity tests.
The successful nonviolence and civil rights movements of the past, as I’ve gathered from reading about them, ALSO featured a shit ton of incessant petty drama and in-fighting.

But crucially, they didn’t have social media - so this was kept far more private.

"...also you can't use the abbreviation 'SA' anymore - Bovino has that locked up."
Breaking news: The Pentagon issued a warning to Scouting America, formerly known as the Boy Scouts, saying the organization risks losing its long-standing partnership with the U.S. military unless it rapidly implements “core value reforms.”
Pentagon warns Scouts to restore ‘core values’ or lose military support
The relationship dates back decades, but Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth has criticized the organization for allowing girls to join and changing its name from Boy Scouts.

Who wants to hear my reality show pitch?
So apparently in the 1950s there was a serious proposal to take a bunch of Air Force personnel to a nuclear reactor, trigger alarms and tell the pilots they had received a fatal radiation dose, and then see how they behaved...

...this is IRB nightmare fuel!

thank you for your service.
It's your lucky day because @wired.com sent photographers to two Melania premiere parties, and asked the superfans in attendance all about their love for the first lady. They had many, um, things to say.

Brewery workers, bar owners, and union organizers in MSP are setting the mark on how to actually care for their community, rather than just invoke as a buzzword. At @vinepair.com, I reported how their work doubles as a playbook for colleagues nationwide whose homes may face MAGA sieges soon enough.

Standard DC klobuchar joke: Amy wins re-election with 70% of the vote. The other 30% have worked for her at some point.
It really bums me out that Klobuchar, who was instrumental in normalizing Trump as just another political adversary, is almost certainly going to be the next governor of Minnesota, a state currently paying a severe price for that normalization of fascism.
Here's all the Klobuchar v. Republican matchups from that SurveyUSA poll

Best Klobuchar lead is +20, worst is +14

If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.
Yes, Peter decided that the continued existence of our democracies isn't compatible with his desired level of personal freedom.
