Shoutout to all the 80s kids who got radicalized watching Trading Places

Read it!

My un-imitable colleague & pal @drewcostley.bsky.social wrote about their first visit to the National Museum of African American History and Culture — affectionately known as The Blacksonian — and why it took them so long to visit, for @veritenews.org. veritenews.org/2025/12/30/n...

Mayor Cantrell vetoes law barring her from spending city funds as she exits office www.nola.com/gambit/news/...

lol Mayor LaToya Cantrell apparently just vetoed an ordinance suspending her ability to sign new contracts, which was passed by the city council as part of their efforts to fix the city's broken finances

Reactionaries managed to control the historical curriculum for generations of students, particularly in the South. Under President Donald Trump, this blueprint is being adapted and disseminated directly from the White House. talkingpointsmemo.com/news/trump-e...

The Cheek Filler Killer

Decided to start a rewatch of Fringe and holy shnikes it’s so great from jump

Wait Die Hard is a sequel??? Is the first one also a Christmas movie?

My niece made this Tik Tok of me unbeknownst to yours truly. When she finally showed me, she would only send it to me in a text presumably so I don’t find her account lol so basically I nailed Christmas

Santa Claus is a fuckin mensch

bari weiss saw this and decided that she had to hide it from the american public

Man that Bob Dylan kid could really make a career out of writing

WATCH: Here's the segment CBS News pulled from "60 Minutes" last night

The Venn diagram of people who support this and also think trans people should be banned from bathrooms is a perfect, stupid circle

Trump naming Landry a Special Envoy to Greenland is pretty much an imminently more useless version of those gift bags Derek Jeter used to give people he fucked.

CBD reporters should post the package or hand it off to another network.

Bari Weiss isn’t a journalist, obviously. She will, however have entire chapters of history books dedicated to the immense damage to journalism, democracy and the world she is purposely causing and her utter failure as a human being, and she’ll live to see her name become a slur.

Per NY Times’s Michael Grynbaum on X, this is Sharyn Alfonsi’s email to her “60 Minutes” colleagues in full:

oh the CBS bosses went to dylan byers? then they are definitely lying.

Weird way to tell his wife he’s fucking his friends blonde widow

Turns out People Magazine is better at covering Trump than the New York Times and Washington Post combined people.com/donald-trump...

Maybe Bari Weiss could take up boxing

Instead of the fireplace Christmas video Netflix should just play a loop of Jake Paul’s jaw and ego getting crushed to warm people’s hearts this year

Jake Paul coming to the ring to honor Hulk Hogan and then getting his jaw punched into his eyeballs by Anthony Joshua has to be one of the best moments in sports this year. Doubly so because I didn’t spend a dime on it.

Bank of America first started offering credit cards to women in 1974

Jake Paul getting his face destroyed is the Good Place

Boxing ain’t even my thing; I just love consequences.

Cardinal Dolan leaving a position of power is one of the best things that could happen to the American church. He’s a horrible, horrible man

Come on AP, you know goddamn good and well why they were included.

This studio awards-season email is really matching the current mood in a way I’m not sure they intended.

Jeffries and Schumer are objectively the worst tacticians I’ve witnessed in nearly 30 years of covering politics. Hell I’m hard pressed to think of two more unqualified buffoons in the last 125 years.

There’s an entire wing in hell for all the Epstein bros

If you put restrictions on keeping this school open you’re worse than Scrooge. Charter schools are like the herpes of education — they suck, are painful and can’t realistically be cured BUT they can be managed so the damage doesn’t spread

if i had a dime for every NYT employee who hung out with jeffrey epstein i would have at least two which isn’t that many but it’s still weird

I wish @dieworkwear.bsky.social or somebody would write an explainer on what’s going on with all these wee lil Joe Rogan bros wearing tiny shirts with preposterously tight sleeves

I saw Cirque du Soleil ‘Auana last night and it was a hoot, as @theferocity.bsky.social would say

Liz is concerned the move might fuck up their slave labor pipeline

The name "Popular Science" doesn't mean we shift our coverage depending on public opinion. It means we cover relevant subjects that are rigorously researched, reliable, and grounded in reality. And trans lives are grounded in reality. We see y'all. No matter what. www.popsci.com/science/tran...

Louisiana Attorney General Liz Murrill is turning killing people into a family business

One reason that news sites are making deals with AI slop factories is that these same AI slop factories spend a ton of money sending glib salesmen to big journalism conferences to sell decision makers on the idea that Slop is the Future.

This is lunacy. @propublica.org is going to destroy a trusted institution by pumping its site full of AI slop

Nicely done job by @annamerlan.bsky.social on a very difficult subject given how thin skinned Benny is for such a tough guy alpha male www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

You can never go wrong with Booker T and the MGs. Everything they did was a banger, and their take on Silver Bells is no exception open.spotify.com/track/1vGbyj...

I’m generally not a fan of dark, ironic or snarky Christmas tunes but man The Kinks’ Father Christmas is such a fuckin banger I love it so much open.spotify.com/track/6eiS2z...

Trump didn’t exactly refute the “personality of an alcoholic” allegations tonight

Personally i’d be insulted by a $1700 bonus to commit war crimes
