The cover of the book features a painting of a Black man in storm-damaged boat on a stormy ocean, with sharks circling the boat.

#NowSpinning Weinberg’s achingly beautiful Cello Concerto with Nicolas Altstaedt taking the solo part. The meditative opening is grippingly gorgeous. What a corker this work is.

Sadly missed this exhibition at the Met, but if you love or are even mildly curious about modern art, this book will blow your mind. Highly recommend!

This is strange. I was told the foreign countries pay the tariffs, so why would this help in the election?

I think it was @SeanTrende who said that Trump is just a walking bundle of the 7 deadly sins in more extreme ways than you usually see in any one person. He's a complete abomination according to any moral or ethical standards that have ever existed.

It’s been 10 years and I still don’t understand why some Christians dislike Trump. I’ve never heard a clear rationale offered.

🚨NEWS: Pete Hegseth wanted a priceless World War II-era globe used by Dwight Eisenhower displayed in his Pentagon office, but instead of waiting for professional curators, his staff attempted to move the historic artifact themselves and DROPPED IT, puncturing the globe near Antarctica and breaking its mounting, according to The Washington Post. The Pentagon confirms the damage.

No one in the U.S. has ever taken home less money because a raise put them in a new tax bracket.
🐍
@hiiigh_fashionOct 21
My last raise, I took home less than I was before the raise . Cause I “entered a new tax bracket”. Fuck this shit.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Federal income tax brackets are marginal; only income above each threshold is taxed at the higher rate. A raise cannot reduce take-home pay due to entering a new bracket. irs.gov/filing/federal… nerdwallet.com/taxes/learn/fe… roichil.net/blog/us-federa…
