The huge Anselm Kiefer joints at SLAM are amazing, go see them.
Lumpeguin, Cigwe, Animiki by Anselm Kiefer. Three river nymphs on a golden sky above a huge truss bridge over the Mississippi. A person is standing in front of the huge painting. Missouri, Mississippi by Anselm Kiefer. It’s huge and there’s a person standing next to it. It’s a dam on the bottom and a river map on the top. Für Gregory Corso by Anselm Kiefer

This is an incredibly depressing indictment of our broken City government. Even when there's good intentions, it's a disaster in execution for those in need.

“I’m in the ‘Hitler sucks’ wing of the Republican Party,” Senator Lindsey Graham, Republican of South Carolina, said over the weekend at the R.J.C. event. “Here’s what I do know: You can sit in a basement with weird people and say weird things. It’s a free country.”

All day, many of you have been asking for a Cheney obituary from me. Get ready:
His Works Completed, Dick Cheney, Mass Murderer of Iraqis and American Democracy, Dies
As much as the Trumpists claim to disavow the War on Terror, they walk a path paved by the most powerful vice president in U.S. history.

The defense team presses Lairmore on whether the sandwich really 'exploded.' They return to the photo of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground.

"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.

"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.

Finally someone bold enough to ask, is new york ready for a mayor who opposes slavery? www.nytimes.com/2025/10/28/u...
It wasn’t so much what Zohran Mamdani said. It was how he said it. “We’re going to stand up for Haiti, because you taught the world about freedom!” the Democratic nominee for mayor of New York exclaimed to an elated crowd at a Haitian music festival in June, fresh off his upset victory in the primary. Mr. Mamdani pronounced the island nation’s name “AH-ee-tee” — near-perfect Creole elocution. “When I heard him say that, I smiled,” recalled Brian Purnell, one of Mr. Mamdani’s former professors at Bowdoin College. He also noted that Mr. Mamdani’s reference to freedom was a nod to Haiti’s status as the first republic founded by former slaves. “That’s straight out of the lessons from the Haitian Revolution that we teach in Africana studies,” said Dr. Purnell, who is now the chair of the Africana studies department at Mr. Mamdani’s alma mater. “I will claim that,” he added with a laugh.

Always thought it was sad that Ayn Rand—one of the most successful authors of children's fantasy books of all time—had little enough saved in the bank in her old age that she had to rely on public assistance until her death, but I'm glad it was there for her.

Today in 1965, the last piece of the Jefferson National Expansion Memorial/Gateway Arch in St. Louis was dropped into place.

Anytime I think of about it, I think of these images. Who needs safety?
