Veronica Burton’s breakout year continues. Three months after being named the WNBA’s Most Improved Player, the Golden State Valkyries point guard is spending December at Team USA’s training camp in her first senior national team callup. | @sfchronicle.com www.sfchronicle.com/sports/artic...

To know who truly rules society, ask who is treated like a force of nature who must be appeased or managed, and not as a grownup with obligations to others.

The Trump administration is prosecuting journalist Tim Burke for exposing Tucker Carlson's whitewashing of antisemite Ye, formerly known as Kanye West. Use our action center to tell lawmakers to speak up against @bubbaprog.xyz's prosecution.

the defensiveness and incredulity of a good chunk of the commentary class toward arguments about trump’s racism is, imho, downstream of the same impulse behind the endless trump voter safaris and self-flagellation about being out of touch with the heartland

Please share this. My mother has been missing since December 7th. She has severe dementia and we are just praying that she is found safely. www.norwoodnews.org/wakefield-po...

My favorite part of filling the USCB survey was hitting all the "we don't use AI and we don't plan to use AI never ever never" buttons.

People who make hyper shareable animal videos with AI will not see paradise

The highlight of my previous career was meeting him at his office because I was working on one of his projects. Before we met, I found out that we were sort of related through his wife, who I also met that day. They were both lovely, and I just remember him being so chill/down to Earth. 💔

2/2 To say this for the 50th time, for anyone who doesn't know: Three young conservative lawyers were part of the GOP "Florida recount" team that led to GWB becoming president, via Bush-v-Gore. They were: John Roberts. Brett Kavanaugh. Amy Coney Barrett. Small world.

I wrote a bit for McSweeney's about Isaac Chotiner interviewing Santa Claus. Just a little something for the holiday season. Enjoy!

Am I the asshole if my friends won’t let me in their writers’ group? @kristenarnett.bsky.social answers this and more of your awkward questions about literary life.

Welp @jimfarley.bsky.social won’t be buying another Ford when it’s time to replace my current car. You are trash.

hey @nytimes.com i had the scoop on this story hours ago. add a reference in your story to my name and outlet. thanks. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/u...

500+ new people signed up with @runforsomething.net to run for office since last night. 2026 will be a great year to run for office & it's not too late (just barely!) to get started! runforwhat.net

(A Cook R+10 number means that if the GOP is at 50 nationally you’d expect an R in the district to get 60%, which if there are no third party votes is 60-40, or R+20 two way margin. People get tripped up on this constantly for obvious reasons.)

Fortunately, there's a decent alternative for folks here: climatecheck.com

for some reason i stopped doing the q&a section on IHTOV. i'm going to open that up again. it's where anyone from any walk of life can answer some pre-written questions about your record collection. for example, here's a fun one with @joshgondelman.bsky.social ihavethatonvinyl.com/q-and-a/q-a-...

This is exactly why I don’t let go of the “cancel culture memo” This man trapped folks in rooms to make them watch him masturbate and they are trying to ask if the show is good enough to make that’s measurable trade

And I don't know if the answer is: everyone is too traumatized to do work and we need to reinvent society. Or if it's more like: generations are losing their cognitive abilities and willpower due to destructive technologies. Or: we all have post-viral brain damage. Or: all of the above.

I went to an "ojos" training tonight hosted by New Orleans DSA and Union Migrante and thought I'd pass on new things I learned: 1. Low/old info ICE sighting posts are wreaking havoc on immigrant communities. Basically, incomplete or old info is actively harmful (even if ppl have good intentions)

I have another Thanksgiving suggestion! It’s this luscious pumpkin cheesecake – which is made with canned pumpkin, by the way – and I recommend it eagerly to you. www.nigella.com/recipes/pump...

Hey Laura, why do you want to move out of Florida? Here’s why.

Apropos of nothing, here, in no particular order, are some things I do in exchange for money in the vicinity of Portland, Oregon: Replace appliances and fixtures like faucets, dishwashers, microwaves, and garbage disposals Repair/replace windows and doors Repair rotten stuff Baseboards etc /

I wrote about the fake account blowup on X this weekend. A genuine post-truth nightmare and proof that these companies have polluted their platforms so thoroughly and traded reality for profit that they've undermined the very idea of what the internet is supposed to be.

This Black Friday weekend we are going to send a message to corporations that enable Trump and the MAGA agenda: #WeAintBuyingIt

If you’re a journalist who’s still on Twitter, from now on in your writing you have to replace “the American people want” with “troll bots in Eastern Europe demand” Being there makes your judgment suspect. I don’t care how savvy you think you are, you’re marinating in a disinformation campaign.

"Between this and a $5 billion rate increase FPL won in 2021, the average FPL customer will wind up paying hundreds of dollars more each year for electricity than they were five years ago." @jasongarcia.bsky.social does an excellent job explaining the latest and largest FPL rate hike.

It's that time of year! We're talking about the Best Romance Novels of 2025. We've chosen ten books that we love and that cover a range of historical, contemporary and paranormal, featuring romance with werewolves and cowboys, vaudeville actresses and vikings, Dukes and the actual Devil.

RFK Jr. admits he instructed the CDC to alter its website to hint at a vaccine–autism link. That’s an extraordinary breach of scientific norms. This is not how evidence-based public health works, and it’s not “gold standard” anything.

EPSTEIN BOMBSHELL: my staff is releasing a new report showing JPMorgan Chase executives – all the way to the top – enabled Epstein's sex trafficking operation. You're going to want to read this.

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

If you're wondering why a large chunk of ostensibly left-of-center pundits are waging war on environmental protections in the form of an "abundance agenda," it's because Silicon Valley has quietly developed a culture of rampant pollution.

Losing the farm that’s been in the family for generations is unfortunate, but it’s a small price for a farmer to pay to make sure some trans kid they’ve never met in a town they’ve never heard of is denied the opportunity to play a sport they don’t care about.

Perfect timing to by my 3 shares!
