There are four key TV archives in the US: ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN. This is the footage filmmakers use to tell our history. If Paramount buys Warner Brothers, two of those archives - including 45 years of CNN footage- will be controlled by one company and likely one person, Bari Weiss.

How teams/delegations are received in Mexico versus the US

I just got into more than one fight with someone because I said, actually, CA voting is fine because more people can vote. Is it the median position that we need to determine voting procedures by "how long it takes to count"? You realize no matter HOW voting happens, they will say its fraud, right?

James Joyce is gonna read this and come back from the dead so he can publish Finnegan's Wake 2 out of sheer spite.

Anything that can be legislatively done can be legislatively undone. To come to any other conclusion is a skill issue.

Some really crazy cases in here - cop looked up ex-girlfriend and family in Flock 100+ times - cop stalked wife giving "test" as reason - cop searched one plate 395 times in 10 months; was later fired Cops keep getting arrested for using Flock to stalk people www.404media.co/cops-keep-ge...

he’s going to try to get it started before the courts can stop him, same thing he did with the east wing, same thing he’s done his whole life, scumfuck developer move

Oh man, it's such a shame that Congress never bothered to ban racial gerrymandering. I bet a law to do that could have been reauthorized by nearly unanimous margins.

One of the truly most vile people of the past few years, repellant to basic humanity

Works for the Spanish too

yes; this is why many writers who are not progressive at all will market themselves as progressive. it's a great marketing tool because mainstream orgs love (a) punching left and (b) "contrarianism". (see Bari Weiss, just for starters.)

If sexual abuse was really considered a terrible thing, the world's richest and most powerful people wouldn't be abusers. The most valued technology wouldn't produce sexual abuse on demand. And allegations of abuse wouldn't be framed as positive depictions of masculinity. Our culture rewards abuse.

We are, at long last, going to know exactly what the Broadview Six prosecutors did in front of that grand jury.

Guys, the obvious solution is just to have California count all the mail ballots first and then wait to count the day-of-election ballots til the end. That sounds dumb but would absolutely address the complaints caused by "red mirage/blue shift"

“microcosm … writ large” sorry but this bad prose. you don’t need to say writ large if you’re referring to a microcosm. that’s what microcosms are. it’s like saying free gratis.

“more children have been preyed upon by republican politicians than have received gender reassignment surgery. let’s talk about that.”

"Pronoun police"? Please. The proper term is the gendermes.

if the Knicks don’t win tonight, the belief that he jinxed it would make this arguably the most dangerous place he’s been in years; fortunately, sports fans are not known to be superstitious

Clearest audio of Trump being booed at MSG in NYC for the NBA Finals between the Knicks and Spurs:

One thing you might not know if you haven’t delved into greater Knicks lore is how big of a crush Jalen Brunson has on Marissa Hargitay and good for him that’s a sweet crush

"What the Wounds Tell" just won this year’s European Press Prize. "Doctors in Gaza observed a disturbing pattern: children with a single gunshot wound to the head or chest, a sign that they had been deliberately targeted." www.volkskrant.nl/kijkverder/v...

this is like the Platonic thomas chatterton williams joint. as always, the locus of responsibility in american society is the "woke" left, and as always, williams believes history began sometime in the 2010s.

Reporter for The Free Press says there’s no point in going places yourself if you can read about them on Wikipedia. Truly, the soul of a journalist.

There are currently more bills attacking trans youth’s right to play sports across the U.S. than there are trans youth in school sports.

Down at the Grebe Factory interviewing the new apprentices for the Western Grebe Taxi Service, I'll thread in stills/video as I process them As a primer, here's THE BEST WESTERN GREBE MATING RITUAL FOOTAGE OF MY LIFE Warning on this thread: too cute for doom Skip to :41 for just rushing. 🪶 🐣

if you have not seen this before I can assure you that you have no idea what is about to happen.

“i bought this before he went crazy” sticker on a Ford

When you run for LA mayor but you’ve never voted for LA mayor before.

I suspect this might be the best photo I ever take

true story, i started talking to a guy im close to about stuff he hadnt tried bc it seemed too feminine and it was the weirdest shit. like, chocolate ice cream. tank tops.

Interesting way to avoid saying that an Israeli occupation soldier shot a 7 month old baby

yeah brother it seems kinda bad if not wholly surprising that the guy with a Nazi tattoo also had a really racist girlfriend

sorta surprised the Catholics made it

Before explaining something to a woman who watches 600 baseball games a year, ask yourself, “is this a bit?” “is this a joke?” “mayhaps this is rhetorical?” “did she ask?” “should I make my own post about it?”

This is going to create new and incomprehensible forms of horseshoe politics.

What gets me is Woke War I is over, they won, and none of them seem any happier for it. Labour is a step away from nuking Scotland for gender nonconforming skirt-wearing. The right has infected US institutions so throughly it’ll take decades to untangle. The richest man on Earth funds the right!

Absolutely insane levels of “we used to be a country”

Genuinely wild that I, a homosexual who loves disco music and rhinestones, am more comfortable in my masculinity than half of the heterosexual men in mainstream punditry.

I really believe American conservatives hate cities so much because frictionless living in cities requires one thing they are all completely incapable of: Minding your own fucking business.
