Because of tariffs and recession fears, Americans are more likely to buy a sedan instead of a pricey SUV or truck.

Bluesky’s “world without Caesars” shirt sold out in 30 minutes.
The shirt, worn by Bluesky CEO Jay Graber at SXSW, was briefly on sale at worldwithoutcaesars.com.

For those of you who don’t know Latin: Zuck’s tee is “aut Zuck aut nihil,” a play on “aut Caesar aut nihil,” which means “Zuck or nothing.” Graber’s tee is “mundus sine caesaribus,” or “a world without Caesars.” We love a woman who can shitpost IRL.Elizabeth Lopatto (The Verge)

Protesters take over Trump Tower in NYC to demand release of Mahmoud Khalil
Some protesters held signs that read "Fight Nazis not students," "Free Mahmoud free Palestine," and "You can’t deport a movement."
A sit-in at New York City's Trump Tower is underway as protesters gathered to demand the release of Mahmoud Khalil, a Palestinian activist detained over the weekend by federal immigration agents.
The organization Jewish Voice for Peace livestreamed the Thursday sit-in, showing hundreds of demonstrators packed into the building's lobby. Some held signs that read "Fight Nazis not students," "Free Mahmoud free Palestine," and "You can't deport a movement."
Many people could be heard chanting "Free Mahmoud."
Although the tee shirts I see also say "Not In Our name", "Stop Arming Israel"
