@jbouie They get better!

decided to start Kieślowski’s Dekalog and judging from this first one i guess i’m looking at ten consecutive nights of experiencing the pinnacle of dramatic filmmaking and also feeling absolutely terrible

@ampersandria I was literally about to get in one. No I’m not so sure.

Great news everyone, "America's Crime Crisis" (trademark Fox News) is over! All it took was Election Day eliminating the perceived political benefit of talking about crime all the time, go figure. mediamatters.org/fox-news/foxs-…

This is one of the more alarming opinions I've read in a while. DNA testing excluded Ohio death row prisoner as source of sperm. Ohio SC: OH law requires *prisoner* to request testing. B/c request came from prosecutors, conviction/death sentence stand. supremecourt.ohio.gov/rod/docs/pdf/0…

Vince Neil is now wearing a Vikings jersey for Kickstart My Heart. He's been struggling with his vocals but has finally found his sweet spot with this one.

There's an inverse correlation between who think they "trust the science" and the people who actually trust the science on nuclear power. pewresearch.org/fact-tank/2022…

@dessadarling @LutsenMountains Man I loved that slide as a kid. Rode it every fall.

Did I mention there’s an ALPINE SLIDE in Lutsen? (Answer: Yes, I did.) Heading up north with the band to play a set and maybe get a gravity rush. lutsen.com/plan-your-trip… @LutsenMountains

Amazing and sad that there’s no human support from #meta or #instagram. My kid got his account hacked and ransomed, and there’s no one to call that can help.
