this sounds like the first ten minutes of a Tom Clancy movie

This is with almost zero buy in from politicians

All I can think about is Jeff Bezos saying that he slashed jobs at the Washington Post — including those of foreign correspondents in the Middle East — based on "the data," and a few weeks later a whole war breaks out in the Middle East that these laid off folks would have covered as true experts.

Tomorrow Never Dies remains the best Bond movie because everything in it happened for real

new type of weirdo just dropped

So we're evacuating all US citizens out of everywhere in the Middle East because of the threat of retaliation and also we're going to be hosting the World Cup here this summer? While the FBI and Homeland Security directors are useless and corrupt? 🤔

this is what they're trying to prevent

There is a 25-minute chunk of Traitors UK season 4 that’s so exhilarating it has me jumping up and down on my couch

criterion channel rn has a collection called YEARNING and a collection called STUNTS! and between them exits the entire spectrum of human art and emotion

The kids don't know about the Amanda Bynes poster hastily airbrushed to avoid implying she endorsed peace

I’m at the beach

I'm a longtime original Haribo Goldbear stan but I'm having the wild berry kind for the first time and I think they might be better. Upending my entire worldview

what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"

I’m always grateful that my car has ventilated seats and an actually good climate control system, but especially today when it is currently 90 degrees outside

This is very bad. Handing CNN to Bari Weiss/David Ellison is very, very bad.

entirely unimprovable execution by the @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social social team

One of the main reasons bosses wanted to crush the tight 21-23 labor market, and elected Trump to ensure they would, was because workers wouldn't put up with shit like this in a world where unemployment was 3%

the "just asking questions" to "legitimate questions about fairness in sports" to "the state doesn't have to consider us as real people" pipeline working exactly as designed.

The reason you can’t give a single inch on anything be it trans rights or dignity for unhoused people is that they, democrats and republicans alike, will take it and say thanks what else is in your pockets? They won’t say thanks actually.

I cannot begin to tell you how good it feels to have been there since day one

This is very good reporting that sheds light on just how small the extremely pro-Trump online right really is. The online right is totally astroturfed. The White House's own staffers are running meme accounts to make them look more popular than they are. www.wired.com/story/a-whit...

I love how all the plastic bits are aging differently. Or was it all just mismatched to begin with?

Just came under a MASSIVE PSYCHIC ASSAULT at the grocery store

damn sorry to hear about the weather y’all are having, it’s 80 degrees in LA today!

The U.S. Women's Hockey Team says it is declining President Trump's invitation to attend his State of the Union address, a day after the president jokingly told the U.S. men's hockey team that he would be impeached if he didn't also invite the women's team.

Somehow Wuthering Heights is neither sexy nor romantic, or even really interesting at all beyond some of the visuals. Great gowns beautiful gowns etc

“Butler Mayor Wesley R. Dingus” is crazy

Wow the promo for Spielberg’s Disclosure Day is getting wild

Every car company should make all of us journalists do art on press trips. I like how my painting turned out

Culver City getting an IKEA this year is the best news I've heard in a while

The Hobbit because I went in not knowing it was the first in a trilogy

‘PLANE 2’ has crashed.

Ancient examples of comic creators having poster’s madness: Al Capp (Li’l Abner) was a serial sexual predator who supported gay rights and MLK, but hated hippies. Chester Gould (Dick Tracy) got into a one sided feud with NASA about how best to travel to the moon.

lowkey i find this to be one of the most viscerally upsetting things elon musk has ever done

I’m gonna give the Italians a pass for this typo because it’s pretty funny
