Hang this in the Met! This is pure cinema at its highest form
It's near-white out conditions in Chicago as the snow comes down, and tonight's anti-ICE/CBP rally is wrapping up in front of city hall.
But not before the crowd bounces and chants, "I believe that we will win!"

So like where are all the ultra right wing folks that protest government overreach? This is literally what they have been preparing for; a government agent murdered a US citizen. I'm not saying they aren't denouncing this, but I have heard literally nothing from that side.

4 runs in the last 25 innings scored by the dodgers, that's really not going to get it done. Their pitching is fine, but apparently needed to be perfect with that stinky batting

I was very confused for a moment when everyone was talking about mass shootings in this site. I feel like this is a much more tragic, but far more common event
Three teens were critically wounded Wednesday in a shooting at a high school in the foothills of suburban Denver, including the suspected shooter, authorities say.

I love the thing that Immaculate Grid built for this. Messing around and making a grid of Extremely 2000s Brewers Guys was like giving my brain a cool drink of water. We'll be goofing around with it all week in various venues, and streaming later today: defector.com/defector-and...

It's time for me to admit; I actually don't really know where Uganda is. That's on me, but how many of y'all given a blank map of Africa could a) point to where Uganda is and b) draw it
Good morning! I'm in Uganda to visit family and friends.
But depending on your perspective, don't worry or I'm sorry: I'll be back by the end of the month.
See you soon, NYC.
