The We Bare Bears guy is making a Pixar movie about a girl who transplants her mind into a robot hamster. It looks absolutely batsh*t and I'm super excited for it; this is the most excited I've been for a Pixar film in a while:

@fritzoids @jgrg I actually looked into this. There's a small community of people with private railcars. Most are leased out for excursions, but some are owned for personal use.

It's not THAT expensive to buy one - comparable to the cost of an RV. But the cost of moving it is fairly high, it requires a lot of planning, and you need a place to store it connected to the national rail system (which means either leasing space in a rail yard or owning a railroad siding).

Fun idea, but impractical.

I am really tired of hearing about Jeffery Epstein, but if hearing about Jeffery Epstein is the price we must pay to eventually hear less about Donald Trump, I am willing to pay it.

The Waldorf-Astoria is perhaps New York's most prominent monument to jazz age luxury and glamor. It's been the traditional residence for US presidents and foreign heads of state when in town (the "presidential suite" was meant rather literally there).

Built over the below-grade railyard of Grand Central Terminal, the hotel was equipped with a private rail siding and platform where guests could park their personal railcars(!). (Andy Warhol once threw a party on the platform.)

This was captured with a DSLR and a 19mm shifting lens, from a balcony of another building.

It's mostly an exercise in angles and symmetry. The vaguely wedge-shaped dark cloud that appeared overhead, following the lines of the buildings, created a fortuitous moment.

The Waldorf was closed for an extensive renovation shortly after this was made and just recently re-opened. Many of the rooms have been converted into condo apartments.

Just a reminder that many people warned the UK government how this would go, and they insisted we were all exaggerating and then smeared us as not caring about kids.

🪭time for me to say another dangerous thing

6 months ago when a white man shot the CEO of United Healthcare, everyone was singing his praises and seeing through the media’s lies

But when a black man shot the CEO of Blackrock, suddenly you believe them when they bemoan “not another tragedy” and totally seem to buy the line “he must have been trying to shoot up the NFL but was too stupid to shoot the right people”

WAKE THE FUCK UP YOU FOOLS!!!

3/ Keep 'em coming

Via Rep. Veronica Escobar

Under the Trump administration, DHS has chosen to violate the law which allows for unannounced visits by Members of Congress to DHS facilities, instructing local ICE staff to deny me entry last month, despite my Congressional oversight authority.

So I’m suing.
