Imagining my sociology colleagues in the future presenting Symbolic Interactionism to their 101 classes: “So, you see, this cartoon frog symbolized fascism, and these frog costumes symbolized anti-fascism…”

Awww, man. I had my first real date there! So many happy memories of spicy food and a movie at Sundance Square in Fort Worth. RIP to a chain that taught us we could season our mayo. 🤭

Trump: "We took the freedom of speech away because that's been through the courts and the courts said you have freedom of speech, but what has happened is when they burn a flag it agitates and irritates crowds."

Insert the *he just say it!* meme here. Appreciate this sound bite, though. It feels like a competent opposition could use it.

Listen, "Looking better than a body has a right to" is straight up 🔥. These youth need to be informed!

Listen, this forced me to learn his name, so maybe he's smart enough to know he has a whole untapped audience. Or maybe he's just doing what country musicians have always done. David Allan Coe, Robert Earl Keen, the Highwaymen, and Steve Earle were not exactly speaking in favor of the government.

Chocolate cake in milk. Not with milk. Like, fully submerged. I can hear my dad gagging from beyond the grave, as he did in life. 🫣

And these guys seem to want tradition (maybe only for women?).

Side note: did Adam DeVine base his Calvin Gemstone voice on Theo Vonn? Because, whew, it’s uncanny.

I love this!! Worked at Gap several summers from in the 90s, and this tickled my brain in a delightful way.

Jennifer Graham @jennrgraham.bsky.social · 3d

UGH. My teen daughter had a guy come up and take photos of her with his phone at the fair; when she asked the security guard about it, he was like, "Oh, sorry, little lady, everyone has a phone now; what can you do?". So, I imagine this will be even more of a nightmare with zero policing.

Kaitlan really out there doing the Lord’s work amongst the lickspittles.

I really can't express how discombulating it is to have the VICE PRESIDENT single out people like this. I know the "frog in the boiling water" metaphor is overdone, but this is unhinged behavior.

Signalgate 2.0, this time not about plans for attacking Houthis in Yemen, but sending the 82nd Airborne to Portland, Oregon

taber @kvetch.gay · 6d

this is wild: while Stephen Miller's guy was in Minnesota for his uncle's funeral, somebody was able to see his entire phone and take pictures of his Signal group chats talking about military deployments to Portland, and brought them to the Strib (gift link: www.startribune.com/trump-offici...)

Oh, he is Wile E. Coyote levels of consistency in what he will do next. I didn’t need the write up.

It is *for sure* a diss track; it reminds me a bit of "You Need to Calm Down". Just delicious.

Yes. And, yet, this arrived in my mailbox yesterday. I am begging people not to sanewash this man. Is he "winning", Chronicle of Higher Education? What does that mean? Driving other schools into the ground?

Christopher Rufo on the cover of The Chronicle of Higher Education with the headline: "Christopher Rufo is Winning. What's His Next Move?".
