… and didn’t know – until her friend Tammy told her – that some of the Antioch Mosaics were just down the street from ‘thesda at the Baltimore Museum. Tammy and I went there together the other day and it was thrilling to see them, arranged around a sunny atrium.
What started as an art show near Juan Tabo and Constitution quickly spiraled into a chaotic scene filled with gunshots and ended with a multi-vehicle car crash.

This first sentence could be a template for future NM cultural events.
What started as a classroom discussion of Husserl’s influence on Merleau-Ponty quickly spiraled into a chaotic scene filled with gunshots and ended with scattered dismembered bodies.
What started as a performance of Tchaikovsky’s “Dance of the Swans” quickly spiraled into a chaotic scene filled with gunshots and ended with a pile of bloody tutus.
You read dat right. Gambia’s had just about enough of babies crawling around with their clits on.
… double-decker death becomes more frequent in gun-soaked America. Here, a few miles from UD, attendees are killed at a memorial for three people who were killed.
Let’s go for another! Let’s do a massacre at the funeral of the person who was killed at the memorial of the three people.
This is fun! Let’s shoot down witnesses testifying in the trial of the shooter at the memorial service!!
Parents in the United States are buying bulletproof backpacks, children are being traumatized by mass shooting drills, and an increasing number of people stay away from crowded events because they’re worried they’re going to be shot.
As long as enough sitting ducks are still willing to go to parties, parades, memorial services, etc., etc., America will keep its appointment with death.
Gun violence is not “unfathomable evil” and will not be stopped with thoughts or prayers or burying good gun legislation in the basement of the Capitol.
Gun violence is fathomable and preventable, and it continues to go unchecked here in Kentucky because our GOP supermajority, in their unfathomable cowardice, refuses to grow up and address it.
… and VP Harris Trump.
Lots of articles like this in the aftermath of the latest bloodbath. A notorious, dangerous, felon! How in the world….?
I burst out laughing at you, and call your gun-availability question a silly thing! (Paraphrasing Monty Python.) Little Chase no doubt lived in a house where everyone ate, slept, shaved, showered, beat off, and shit with guns. ‘Member the gun-glutted Murdaughs? Boy I say boy ain’t no one down in y’all and shut ma mouth land who ain’t stewing in guns every minute of every god damn day and you wanna know how a twenty year old psychotic with a violent record got a gun? How did he not get a gun? How in Florence KY do you avoid having a gun?
“The point at which your business plan requires divine intervention is the point at which you have a solvency problem,” said prosecutor Andrew Mark Thomas in closing arguments…
LOL. Scenes from America’s latest edition of Elmer Gantry.
Very broad field lately for old age jokes.
… here. The fancier the neighborhood, the scummier your neighbors. How many times must I tell you this?
You’re finally able to afford a 60 million dollar mansion in LA’s fanciest neighborhood of them all – Holmby Hills. But you forgot Fran Lebowitz’s famous reminder: “No one earns $100 million. You steal $100 million.”
Example: Your next door neighbor used his position as Armenia’s minister of finance to take as much money out of the country as he could through bribes; and now you get to watch the feds gather on his driveway and go through all of his possessions.
I mean, if you wanted to watch the police remove your neighbor’s furniture right there in front of his house, you could have saved money and moved to South Carolina.
But maybe you don’t care that more than a few of your neighbors are domestic and international criminals. You’re probably one yourself.
You can read years of frat atrocities on that campus here, if you’ve got the stomach; but if you just want the very latest —
A frat that had recently had its wrist slapped by this infinitely indulgent school seems to have killed a guy. (“Beta was on alcohol probation at the time of [Won] Jang’s death, following a suspension in the fall, winter and spring terms.”) Hazing, mucho booze, and a nearby river seem to have been the classic ingredients in this most recent case, and we can expect all the usual worthless responses – suspending the frat, offering a settlement/being sued by the poor babe’s parents, possible charges against the sadists of Beta Alpha Omega, blah blah. Ecoute: Dartmouth’s the school of choice for the children of wealthy sadistic alcoholics. Booze is its brand, and that ain’t gonna change. A little rape/carnage is the cost of doing business.
******************
Update: Of course, Dartmouth can’t hold a candle to Oklahoma State.
If you pick Oklahoma State — and if you’re regarded as someone who can help the [football] team win — you can have six or seven beers and get behind the wheel of a car and you won’t get punished by the coach.
Gotta admire Iran’s “Cap and Pray” economic policy: Shut down all businesses where women don’t wear a scarf. Absofuckinglutely brilliant.
