Some real choice words of impartiality coming from a Supreme Court Justice. /s

pbswisconsin.org/news-item/jus

Maybe if the conservatives hadn't locked themselves in a room playing Moneyball with electoral maps back in 2011 and actually legislated rather than leaving it up to the court to decide what words mean, we wouldn't be in such a mess.

"‘Liberation Day’ may have belonged to Trump, but Wisconsin voters offered their own declaration of independence on Wednesday – is it a sign of what’s to come?"

"The momentum is shifting. Wisconsin was a decisive win. Gaps in Florida’s US House districts are narrowing. And Democratic Senator Cory Booker just shattered segregationist Strom Thurmond’s record in congress with a 25-hour protest speech – a symbolic moment, but one that suggests renewed energy on the left."

@GreenFire and we get this "Captain of Industry" 'til 2028 thanks to a third party washer. Farmers "may" see a sideloaded reprieve. How about not effing things up like a noodle head in the first place? Just pretend COVID never happened and everything can just go back to business as usual with a snap of your fingers. Big picture thinker there, that one. I'm surprised he even goes on camera with Amna, he looks like he wants to rip out her eyes.

Earlier this week, all American eyes were on Wisconsin as two judges duked it out for a seat on the state’s supreme court — a race that Elon Musk poured millions into. @bolts’s Alex Burness wrote the definitive story on what happened and what it all means. “Today should be a breaking point for our state. Even if your preferred candidate wins, … every single Wisconsinite should be alarmed at this grotesque billionaire arms race,” Nick Ramos, executive director of the Wisconsin Democracy Center, told Bolts late Tuesday, before the result was announced. “The past two months have shown us a terrifying preview of what’s coming: an America where billionaires run the show, and the rest of us are just spectators.”

Visited with students and gave slide talks two days ago- and pulled tubes with some very talented students yesterday. Gonna give another demo for UW glassblowing students today.

It's like my birthday came early with the tubes. Gonna make a video at some point to share the glassblowing fun- but Amber an Skye were SO helpful, with Amber having blown glass since they were very young, and learning to pull tubes from my favorite tube puller in Tacoma.

I saw wonderful undergrad and graduate student work, seen here are Amber's "two truths and a lie" tubes covered in black glass powder and resist sandblasted through (I pulled some of that black/ brown). A studio visit with Morgan, a third year grad student was very neat- their ceramic and neon sculptures playing with texture, dementia, memory, and structure- integrating the neon and clay quite nicely.

Two truths and a lie piece by Amber. The black glass powder on the outside gave the tubes an interesting brown filter with the neon fill, as well as an interesting texture. Their handwriting, Rayzisted sandblasted onto the tube, allows the bright, unfiltered neon through

Wins of the Resistance

And what about the biggest win of the week?

"Trump and Musk's backing wasn't enough to flip #Wisconsin Supreme #Court" npr.org/2025/04/01/nx-s1-53458

That was just 3 days ago. Don't forget the power we have and the ways we can exercise it!

Die Kehrtarife

#Macron hat Recht: wir können nicht alle 4 Jahre zittern, wie #Wisconsin wählt, aber gleiches gilt auch für #Europa: wir müssen die #Faschisten und Spalter in den Parlamenten loswerden. Jetzt!

Souleymane’s Story

"Despite the relentless pressure, moments of warmth and humanity shine through: a shared joke with fellow couriers, an act of kindness for an elderly customer, a fleeting connection with a kebab vendor. Director Boris Lojkine presents Paris from a radically unfamiliar perspective, capturing the city not as a picturesque metropolis but as a landscape of obstacles and invisible boundaries for those who remain unseen. First-time actor Abou Sangare delivers a deeply empathetic performance as the title character, culminating in a raw, gut-wrenching interview scene that lays bare his struggle. "
