Beautiful oilskin raincoat designed by Donna Zakowska and made by Eric Winterling for an upcoming film. Coat is beautiful bc it has a lot of shape — A-line silhouette with neat folds at back. This is a women's garment, but same principle applies to menswear. First two pics via IG ericwinterlinginc

I buried my daughter’s placenta, is that good enough for you? In a post hole since I used to be an archaeologist and I know that one will last and the other won’t.

Happy International Archaeology Day! Go burry some stuff in your garden, not rubbish either, something nice for future archaeologists.

These people must be arrested and punished for this.

ICE goons box a mother with her children in their car. ICE "takes" the mother, leaving her children on the side of the road. An ICE goon then takes her children in a white sedan. Where are the children now? Newark, NJ

Haha! I do too and I’m 66.

My teenage children, who have never set foot in NYC, go around saying "Help me, Mamdani!" whenever anything goes wrong and/or they can't figure out their homework, just to give everybody a sense of the scale of this man's presence in the culture lol

yeah can she sue if the robot knocks her over or impedes her progress? I mean I really think the accountability issue is pretty important here. Who gets arrested for the crimes the robot commits?

The shorter Vivek: if we were to abolish Medicare and Medicaid, we could make the wealthiest 0.001% of the population much wealthier, and we'd have more money for bombs and missiles in the Middle East, too. Sure, life expectancy for the peons would drop, but that's a good thing.

It’s helpful to have an actual Labour MP saying right out that it’s not what transgender people do or say that is the problem: it’s their presence that she objects to, their existence. Yes, this is what it always was, and these people just keep winding each other up and up to ever more extreme views

We've got to nationalize SpaceX. We have no choice. We can't operate our military without them and we can't trust them to serve our national interest. There is literally no other option.

The United States is actively helping Putin murder civilians in Ukraine. Trump is doing everything he can to force Ukraine to surrender to his friend and ally Putin so they can be subjugated by the Russians again.

That blurred map on Trump's desk appears to be East Potomac Park — the golf course where the trees are being cut. Katie Zacharia may have just handed the federal judge evidence of exactly where the order came from.

Calling a federal judge histrionic is quite the litigation strategy, let’s see how that works out for them!

ICE murdered Johan Sebastian Guerrero in our backyard. He wasn’t the target of an investigation. He was driving to work. He had a three-year old daughter. ICE shot and killed him. Senator Collins must be held accountable for funding this terror.

ICE kidnapped a man in front of a High School in Moreno Valley California this morning. Multiple video recordings from community members show the masked goons pulling the man from his vehicle in front of families and children while parents were taking their kids to school.

Miscarriages, medical neglect, overcrowded cells—ICE detainees in Burlington are living through inhumane conditions. Our request with Sen. Warren is clear: the DHS Office of Inspector General must thoroughly inspect this detention facility. There must be accountability for Trump & ICE's cruelty.

Sometimes I ask myself “why am I here?” And the answer seems to be to repost art, archaeology, and hopeful political events while also blocking every fucking splitter, accelerationist, doomer, whiner, special interest monger, what about meeeeeeee ideologue and hate click poaster. That’s the job.

Remembering again why I just detested Josh Barro and really could never understand how Popehat had anything to do with him.

In early 2025, I assumed the Trump regime would delete the Department of Justice’s press releases and other statements related to more than 1,000 Jan. 6 cases. So I downloaded them. We’ve now made them available to the public with a search tool. They can’t erase history. jan6memoryproject.org

Q: There's a Minnesotan, Pete Hegseth, who is the secretary of defense. How do you assess his performance? TAFOYA: Uh, the grade is incomplete Q: Peggy Flanagan? FLANAGAN: F. And frankly, he should be impeached. Incomplete? The people of Minnesota have seen enough.

TAFOYA: All of the legislation that has led to this debt, 77% of it has been bipartisan. It's gonna take bipartisanship to get us out of it. FLANAGAN: Even time we have zeroed out the debt, it has been Democrats. So we need to send Democrats to DC.

This is a fantastic little video and looks like an incredible book. The thread below, however, is kind of a proof of concept that queer or straight, cis or trans, anything “female” coded will get a canned masculine response amounting to “there there, smile why don’cha, I think you are fine.”

Powerful, joyful, thoughtful take on this really very common experience when we fall “far from the tree” in terms of looks, aesthetics, goals, identity, politics and have to wrestle with that loss of connection or feelings of rejection. I mean this happens to people on a number of axes:
