I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.

Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

Best TikTok thing going is the two dudes trying food from every country without leaving NYC. If you haven’t seen them yet, it’s incredible. My favorite so far is last week’s. Legit got me emotional.

I teach bystander intervention for a living and have taught de-escalation to law enforcement.

Trust me when I say that bottle girls, gas station clerks, strippers, front desk employees at hotels and airports, baristas, etc. have better de-escalation skills than any cop I've ever seen.

Wonderful
To stop people mocking Russian logistics donkeys, they decided to show off their advanced delivery robot… Enjoy!

They are not.
In 1916 the U.S. entered an agreement w/Denmark in which in exchange for taking control of the islands of St. Croix, St. John, & St. Thomas (then the “Danish West Indies”), the U.S. would pay $25 million & not object to Danish control of Greenland.

Until our students see reading and writing as joyful invitations to know themselves better they will be seduced by A.I.’s promises of “products.” The commodification of education was always a mistake because it also commodifies and alienates the self.

Srsly. Wake up and do something, elected mutes! Lookin' at you first if all, @schumer.senate.gov ! No more blah blah, do something,like energetic and effective.
Where the hell are America’s leaders? Too many people with formal authority are intimidated by Trump or sucking up to him. That leaves you and me and everyone else without official power to resist his tyranny. robertreich.substack.com/p/where-the-...

Racist dumbasses gonna racistly dumbass
It’s genuinely wild that the United States spent decades building an elaborate rules-based international order which de facto cemented its permanent status as the dominant global hegemon, sustained by ideology rather than might, and now is just blowing it all up for literally no reason

Yes. They certainly want nothing to do with reading various perspectives, critical thinking, or caring one bit about people's stories and experiences.
For the record, that's all the far right *is*. They want the vibe of unpainted Greco-Roman marble statues, they don't want the centuries of philosophy or its implications. They simply want to steal the valour of the erudite.
For all their talk of Western civilization they seem oblivious or even contemptuous of core Western texts.

“Bullying works,” “punchable face,” “[X] should have gotten beaten up more as a kid,” all of this stuff is depressingly common and normalizes in our rhetoric the righteousness of dealing violence. It’s bad.

Ok, cool, it's a casual/jeans and pearls sort of occupation. And who better to oversee a country we just invaded than the morally compromised, soulless (as shown in every single photograph) Marco Rubio.
A former staffer said that U.S. officials would not be performing a formal occupation like in Iraq. “We’re going to tell them: ‘Hey, this is what you have to do in order for there not to be another strike. That’s what [Trump] sees as running the country.” www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...
Rubio takes on most challenging role yet: Viceroy of Venezuela
The top U.S. diplomat has pushed for regime change for over a decade. Now the hard part begins.

Open Your Heart by Madonna
MTV is officially ending all of its music channels.

In honor of that, what's your favorite music video?

I love Bluesky as I seem to be protected/sequestered from certain loved ones who, on other social media platforms, are usually silent until I say something about the govt disappearing immigrants or racism, & then they come roaring into my feed saying I've drunk the kool-aid. Uh, no, I read THE NEWS.

Strong opinion: I believe that most people have absolutely no business photographing the food they've made. If it looks like a messy pile of slop, you can keep that pic safe in your phone where it doesn't harm anyone's eles's appetite. It should look *nice* if you want to share it online.

The Cracker Barrel thing was THIS YEAR. We have three more years of this shit. Anybody who makes it to 2028 without looking like Nosferatu will be required by the state to start a skincare brand.
