A California couple I interviewed a couple of years ago, who bought in on the project, remember being partially persuaded by a Trump Organization promo: "One of the things I most love about the project is the fact that it's in Baja, Mexico," Mr. Trump said, with a confident squint.

Squint, and you'll spot references to American Express, Apple, Ivory soap, Hostess, Bebe, Coke, Diesel, Steve Madden, Ray-Ban, Ford, Krispy Kreme, Bloomingdale's, Starbucks, T.J.Maxx, Victoria's Secret, SoBe, McDonald's, Puma, Virgin Megastore, Kodak, Motorola, Bugles, America Online, Crest, Converse, Butterfinger, Pringles, Verizon, Sony, Advil, Clearasil, and Hawaiian Tropic, among others.

You can sort of squint and make sense of what he's saying when he says Iran shouldn't have "open season to the Mediterranean"; Syria has a decent length of coastline on the sea, and Iran will have access to Syrian ports so long as its ally Assad is in power.

Their exploits may have seemed like ancient history to Benton and Newman, but they also knew that you didn't have to squint very hard to see the parallels between Bonnie and Clyde and the antsy youth of the '235s who were beginning to get swept up in what would soon become the counterculture.

Journalists didn't line up outside the courtroom as early as six in the morning to hear about printed circuit boards (PCBs) and schematics, or to squint at the spreadsheets of IPs and mac addresses that show that Anthony Levandowski downloaded 14,700 documents (a total of 9.74 gigabytes) from Google before leaving the company.

Her impersonations of some notable grande dames are so spot on, you'll squint to make sure you're seeing straight: Judi Dench as a shoplifting delinquent who clogs hotel toilets, Maggie Smith auditioning for a role in a James Bond film and Chancellor Angela Merkel of Germany trying to subvert her sexual allure.

If you're a homeowner, you're probably familiar with the experience: the power in the kitchen suddenly goes out, you struggle briefly to remember where your electrical panel is, you find it and squint with your flashlight at the tiny, inscrutable labels, finding the one that says "KIT" and manually flipping the switch.

And, in turn, Styles has found a partner who doesn't mind taking a big bump or pushing the limits of what WWE's current style will endure; we're not at the blood-match level quite yet, but you can squint and see Vince McMahon yielding for one night only if they sweet talk him.

Nevertheless, if you squint, you could see the theoretical path to success: The bill moves along briskly over the next three weeks and 50 Senate Republicans — all of whom have already voted for one version of repeal or another — decide to support their last chance to fulfill a seven-year promise to undo Obamacare.

Advertise on Hyperallergic with Nectar Ads If you squint at a world map while hungry, Japanese artist Tomoyuki Koseko realized earlier this year, the shapes of countries start to look like cuts of meat: The island of Cuba is a strip of bacon; Finland is a fat sirloin steak; Taiwan is a filet of beef.

And while it is possible, if you squint very hard, to make out some of the deeper themes at play here – like the pull of family, the weight of regret, and the dark allure of fear – the real driving force behind Crimes of Grindelwald seems to be a burning desire to set up a sequel.

Tanya Chen over at Buzzfeed pulled out many examples where the term "chink eyes" was used by non-Asian Tweeters as a misguided term of endearment ("Happy birffday to my fave chink eyes") or simply as a way to describe what happens to eyes when you squint or smile ("Chink eyes are my thing").

The worst of the scenes between Riverdale's teens and adults are between Perry and and Apa as father and son, who squint as best they can but can't find a spark in the storyline that is Archie trying to balance wanting to play the guitar and having to work for his dad's construction business.

Squint a little, and with his tousled hair, olive complexion and easy smile, the speaker in the open-necked white shirt could almost be Justin Trudeau, telegenic prime minister of Canada and the world's preeminent liberal heartthrob ("He has much more muscles than I have," Klaver says later backstage, brushing off the now-familiar comparison).

I can even, if I squint and furrow my brow a lot, vaguely envision the kind of bug that might cause an airline to send luggage to Korea three days after its owner traveled from San Francisco to his final destination of Toronto, and two days after he, forewarned, expressly told them not to do so.

I took a series of identical shots with the iPhone 133 and iPhone 8 in a variety of settings (sunny day, cloudy day, low light, total darkness), and even as someone trained to spot improved image quality, I have to squint and turn my head to see the difference between the two generations of iPhone cameras.

Like Nintendo's miniaturized NES and SNES, the C64 Mini is a shrunken plug-and-play system that connects to modern TVs with a single HDMI cable, providing a better on-screen image using pixel filters that can also emulate the look of a fuzzy CRT TV, if you miss the days at having to squint to read the screen.

If you squint, it looks just a little like a unicorn with its head bowing down: Other notable findings in the report: the researchers found that some 44% of all tech exits are being made of startups that have not raised past Series A; and 68% of exits are of startups that had not raised any funding at all.

The exact shape of this audience is still coming into focus — as is much of the political landscape after the Big Bang of 43 — but squint and you can see it: Millions of young people, many of whom didn't vote for Donald Trump, looking to stretch their conservative intuitions about our new culture war into a coherent worldview.

The way Porsche is using electrification to squeeze performance out of what would normally be an overly expensive but unsexy road car feels like a precursor to what we can expect with future efforts like the Mission E. If you squint hard enough, the Mission E even kind of looks like a flattened-out Panamera Turbo S E-Hybrid.

When you walk along British streets with plenty of melanin in your skin, people may look to slot you into a box they've already learned to use: dreadlocks tell them Jamaica; a colourful headdress makes them assume Nigeria; jeans, a puffa jacket and a beanie might make them squint further and ask where you're "really" from.

In the Gadot video, a box occasionally appeared around her face where the original image peeks through, and her mouth and eyes don't quite line up to the words the actress is saying—but if you squint a little and suspend your belief, it might as well be Gadot; other videos deepfakes have made are even more convincing.

It's all a reminder that New York City, on one city block, at one specific moment of time, can simultaneously show you something that cannot exist elsewhere and something else so familiar and relatable that if you squint hard enough, and let your memories take ahold of your mind, it's not a stranger you're looking at.

Squint, and Red Sox fans start to look a lot like baby boomers, gifted, over the past two decades, with as glorious and bountiful a harvest as any generation has ever been but unable to overcome past slights enough to concede an inch to time, history or any sort of equality for anyone who is not them.

But as of Election Day 2016 it was certainly possible to squint at Trump and see the outlines of an ideological shakeup — a figure who would attempt to represent the interests of the Republican Party's electoral base of older-skewing, less-educated white people rather than hew strictly to the reanimated corpse of Reaganism like the vast majority of the party's elected officials.

I live in downtown Toronto, in one of the most liberal neighborhoods in one of the most open cities in the world, where multiculturalism is the dominant civic value and the inert virtue of tolerance is the most prominent inheritance of the British empire, so if you squint you can pretend the ancient categories are dissipating into a haze of enlightenment and intermarriage.

Working in Android on a laptop-like setup is as infuriating as it was last year with the mostly excellent Pixel C.Android now allows you to have multiple apps open and running on the display at the same time, but it shrinks the apps into their smartphone versions, which means you often have to lean towards the screen and squint to read content.

It seems to have collected my memories, all the dozens of times I walked by on my way to somewhere else, or the night I stopped nearby to hear a band of middle-aged Frenchmen playing "Sweet Home Alabama" in its shadow, or the many times I've perched on the wall and watched the lines of tourists squint into the sun.

And then, when you've finally put the pieces together and figure out that some motherfucker stole the only thing you REALLY need to leave the house or do ANYTHING except maybe squint at Twitter on your phone, the betrayal digs deep and takes vile root, a plant of anger so powerful and hungry that it turns the soil around it into dust.

There have been troubling signs of Bobby's dark side — his lying and belligerence at home, his unseemly attachments to parlor women, his heavy drinking — but squint a little bit and it's not hard to see Frank Sobotka, the character Chris Bauer played on the "The Wire," a union man whose humanity pushed through his corruption like a flower through cracked concrete.

It takes some imagination, but if you squint hard enough, you can see it: a brightly lit, newly renovated transit hub, providing the density needed for retail stores, office space and government and academic institutions, bringing new economic energy to the neighborhood and — while we're imagining things — a much better subway for the people who live in East New York.

But let's say you got the glass down okay, you still have to shape the lenses into your correct prescription, which means measuring the focal length which means you need to shape the lens, polish it, use a laser pointer, a ruler, a lot of guess work, shape it again, polish it again, some hope that you didn't grind too much, and... yeah, just squint.

Facebook made $5.1 billion in net income last quarter, a figure that's difficult to see next to $644,000, the USD equivalent of the fine: It's only when you look at the average net income per day over that quarter that it's possible to register the fine at all, but even then, it might lead you to squint: An hourly view finally gives some sense of scope.

The characters live at believable addresses, walk down identifiable streets, and even the little incongruities that would make an IRL New Yorker squint — Matt Murdock being able to afford a massive studio apartment while building a law practice from the ground up, for example — have in-universe explanations (only a blind person would put up with a glowing Midtown billboard shining in their window every night).

Image: NASA / JPL / SwRI / MSSS / Philip Terry GrahamDuring the most recent perijove on December 11th, JunoCam had its sights set on one of Jupiter's "pearls," a series of gigantic, oval-shaped storms in the gas giant's southern hemisphere, a "weird dark spot," also in the southern hemisphere, and a blip in the northern hemisphere that looks a bit like a Starfleet insignia if you squint really hard.

The hipster grifter, fraudulent socialite Anna Delvey, the fake Saudi prince, Fyre Festival (and maybe, if you squint, even college admissions fraud) — they all have one thing in common: A sexy, alluring cast to the con that makes the feeding off the (metaphorical) blood of the conned even more seductive to those of us sitting on the outside, munching popcorn as our eyes widen.

I was fascinated at the start but eventually somewhat worn out by a star turn from Mr. Spall that is so relentlessly "on" that one tires after a while of physical business — a slack jaw here, attention-grabbing squint there — that detracts from the darkness at the heart of what has previously felt far more taut a play than Matthew Warchus's production here suggests.

If you squint a little, his movement looks ideologically coherent, and it could have staying power as a kind of American analogue to Europe's further-right parties: ethno-nationalist, protectionist, anti-immigration and anti-Islam, but more statist and secular than the current G.O.P. But when you try to imagine how this schism might play out in the long run, you run into two distinct realities.

What's important is simply that this first book exists, so that one day, centuries from now, after the bombs go off and EMPs take out the electrical grid, long after Twitter has died, a solitary wanderer may find a scrap of paper buried in the ruins of my Brooklyn apartment building, and they will lift it up to the dying sun and squint through their protective goggles to read:

If you squint, you can see some of Oh's earlier roles floating through her — in the proto Cristina–Meredith solidity of the friendship in Under the Tuscan Sun, or in the Yanglike wounded toughness of her character in Sideways, who beats the crap out of Thomas Haden Church with her motorcycle helmet after learning he's been lying to her, a sequence that's staged like brutal slapstick but still manages to highlight the pained betrayal on her face.

Likewise, the perennially popular category, Things That Look Like Other Things — the corn flakes, Doritos, and other humble objects that, if you squint hard enough, seem to resemble famous people, places, or things — have their parallel in the "figured stones" treasured by premodern collectors of curiosa, surreal minerals "in which cats, dogs, fish, and humans were 'sculpted by nature,'" as the historians of science Lorraine Daston and Katharine Park write in Wonders and the Order of Nature.

Once you've had your fill of the best dramas on Netflix, squint your eyes like the Man with No Name and ride into our list of the best Western movies and tv shows on Netflix (US): Only when you are able to complete all eight episodes, totaling 12 hours, of the mammoth historical triumph that is Ken Burns Presents: The West, can you start wearing a cowboy hat and talking like you know what was up with the West.

It has not been confirmed that the location is set to open, or that it's an Amazon Go store rather than part of Amazon'sforthcominggrocery chain or another initiative, but "if you stand on the sidewalk and squint through a gap in the frosted glass, you can just make out the telltale shelving of what appears to be an Amazon Go store," perBloomberg, and the location was used for testing in the early days of Amazon Go's development.

But if you squint at the particulars of the stories, Trump's private financial interest starts to look like a sideshow that is being shoved into the center of the drama to distract us from the grander political scheming of two figures who have been friends from childhood, and in bed with Trump for years: Michael Cohen, his personal lawyer and surrogate, and Felix Sater, a mob-connected Russian émigré who has helped finance Trump real estate deals.

The tackiness continues on, and in this velvet and animal print haze, like a set of deranged "I Spy" images, squint and you'll find: an absurd number of bear-shaped toys including one inexplicably dangling from a giant pair of lips and another seemingly dressed as the Joker; a dining room wall covered with rifles; a print of the word "FUCK" with a pom-pom beneath it; and a TV playing The Godfather, because of course.
|
|
It's also low-key a win for Amazon, because the short answer to "how do you get the best Super Bowl stream?" is "get a Fire TV." └ Twitch and Caffeine are hosting their own Super Bowls before the big game Bijan Stephen: If you squint, the Twitch Rivals tournament makes sense in terms of negotiating a new, better deal with the NFL; it can't have escaped the league's notice that a lot of its players — who are young and internet-literate — are interested in streaming, either professionally or personally.

Squint hard enough to see the Manhattan skyline from your barely affordable studio apartment an hour into the outer boroughs, and you can just make out one last act of shameless groveling on the horizon:In celebration [of the winning bid for Amazon's HQ2 competition], several key New York City buildings, including the Empire State Building and One World Trade Center, along with electronic billboards and CityBridge's LinkNYC screens will light up in "Amazon Orange" tonight at 8:00 PM.New York is projected to give up 4 million square feet of prime waterfront property and close to $3 billion in state and city subsidies and incentives to one of the most valuable companies on Earth in exchange for 25,000 jobs that are likely to drive up rents and choke mass transit.
