In 1582, a papal bull introduced the Gregorian calendar, still used today by most of the world. Because it’s 11 days ahead of the Julian calendar, countries introducing it simply skipped a third of October, and if you scroll back far enough in the iPhone calendar app you can see it change

I hope this "ICE Karen" twerp is just as unpopular on campus right now as he is in my home.
According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.

Here's hoping this article on Zac boasting about how he ruined some immigrants' lives follows him around for a very long time.

Gambling is an addictive vice. And like all addictive vices, should have friction built in to limit the ability of consumers to over indulge.

All of the trends in the gambling realm have been going the other way. I guess at least this one benefits municipal gov'ts?

I’m sorry my of convinced of all the ATCs went on strike during Thanksgiving and demanded Trump and Vance resign, they could maybe get that to happen. These people do not understand how important these people they’re threatening are.

Nothing like a proposal for a modest amount of lower-income housing nearby to find out who your neighbors are.

It’s a shame that GTA VI has been delayed but I’m excited by Rockstar’s promise that the extra time will allow them to give all the pedestrians in the game “a rich inner life” and “the capacity to actually experience pain”

The only performative reading I know about is that I used to be neighbors with Ethan Hawke and he would pace up and down the street in jeans and a t-shirt, smoking and running his hands through his hair, while reading Allen Ginsberg aloud, clearly wanting people to be impressed with his fervor.

As a certified Metal fan now, the Grammys needs to expand their Metal palette when it comes to their nominations.

The fact that Turnstile, NOT A METAL BAND (granted Birds is definitely a pretty metal song though), got a nomination, is wrong. There's so much interesting and amazing Metal out there.

Hatchie has finally made the Cocteau Twins album I've always wanted to hear from her.

Her early EPs were pure The Sundays. And now she's leaned into the Robin and Liz of it all. Love it.

I feel like throwing a sandwich into the chest of a DHS gestapo thug should be a $100 ticket.

Like, I don’t want it to be 100% legal necessarily. But a small fine seems right?
