On Ballet: Fran Lebowitz and Nick Mauss | Live from the Whitney
YouTube video by Whitney Museum of American Art

this was my old pinned post on Twitter, Fran Lebowitz is one of the best to ever do it, just the clearest and most powerful articulation of my beliefs about the arts and their relationship with criticism i've ever seen from another person

DOGE did everything they were supposed to do and have already killed almost 700,000 people including 430,000 children, as intended. DOGE is one of the most successful anti-democracy, mass-murder campaigns we've ever seen, and we will be dealing with the consequences of their success for generations.
Difficult to overstate how profound a failure DOGE was. Spending in FY2025 was not only than in FY2024 – but higher than it was projected to be when Trump first took office.*
The little bit of spending DOGE cut has already killed hundreds of thousands and will eventually lead to millions of deaths.

Bye bye, “DOGE”.

Really important to stress that the Crown Jewels of the US higher education system were never the Ivies or elite SLACs (other countries have equivalents of these) but the well-funded, large, cheap, and excellently staffed public state university systems bringing high quality education to the masses.
One of the bragging rights that the US ed system had in the 20th century is that we didn't have education tracks. Essentially, any kid could go to a CC or state school & major in whatever they wanted to (obviously an oversimplification). I fear this aspect of the American dream is dying.

brb installing a co-parenting app but using it for my gaming group consisting entirely of adults
It's wild how bad all the features discord is adding are, when it's incredibly obvious the best new feature would be doing that thing where it shows everyone what you're playing, but instead what you're *gonna* play so you can arrange times to do shit together without pinging

counterpoint: cats are gamers and you should never trust a gamer's opinions on art, not even mine
I don't deny that dogs can sometimes be quite lovely but what I will say is I don't trust their opinions. If a cat recommended me an album it had bought, I'd totally check it out. If a dog did the same, I'd promise to listen to the album, out of politeness, with no intention of actually doing so

yeah public defenders are fucking heroes lol. like my work is stressful and i like to think it's important but i work a 9-to-5 and most of my clients meet me weeks or even months before we go to court. i've heard stories of PDs meeting you five minutes before you go in front of a judge
Fun fact: this is explicitly why Dick Wolf created Law & Order: he violently hates defense attorneys and felt tere weren't enough shows about how defendants and their lawyers are scum
(also when somebody "gets off on a technicality" that actually means the cops committed a crime against them)

reagan would have called her a cunt, nixon would have called her a cunt and been secretly recorded saying it, biden would have called her fat, and basically everyone prior to at LEAST the 1920s would have been too baffled by the notion of a prominent woman reporter

Blaseball already exists
After "film trilogy that dropped a critical plot point exclusively via timed Fortnite event" and "video game series whose story only makes sense if you're aware of the events of a canon pachinko machine", I feel like there are whole frontiers of user-hostile narrative design waiting to be explored.
