apparently the shooter may have shot himself in the storage facility after killing the MIT professor. im glad they eventually figured out his identity, but i can't help but feel that if the FBI was better at their job, they could have prevented the murder of this professor. there was a 2 day period

Again, anti-wokeness is a backlash to integration of white collar work. Only white men are allowed to have prestigious jobs otherwise it's unfair bsky.app/profile/mike...

Jones: Everything you hear from Tuberville is framed as a sports analogy. When you view everything that way, you’re always stuck in an us-versus-them, winners-versus-losers mentality. That’s how he operates. But the fact that communities across Alabama are suffering is not a game.

A million Muslims live in New York City. We belong here, as does every other New Yorker. This is vile Islamophobia from the Councilwoman and it has no place in our city.

i have said this before but if you are actually interested in influencing people beyond a narrow circle of too-online journalists you will be making direct to camera videos on tiktok, instagram and youtube. if you primarily post on text-based social media then you're just dicking around.

A movement that demands grace and empathy whenever someone from their side suffers while offering none to the other isn’t really a movement that gives a shit about anything other than power and control

I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.

This is a very good point. We have been degraded as a people since the first term.

Just want to share with my American friends how the Australians respond to a shooting tragedy. Action, rather than thoughts and prayers.

American cops would have shot that man who stopped the gunman, let the gunman the away with a stroll and then sued the hero for making them look bad.

Terrific investigation into Greg Bovino's roots. Lots of interesting details, including: "Here’s how the Bovinos managed to get around the new quotas that limited how many Italians and others deemed to be “undesirables” could end up in the United States." chicago.suntimes.com/the-watchdog...

“I miss blockbuster video” the library has every dvd totally untouched and I never see you there

One of the worst parts of the modern condition is having to listen to billionaires airing out the stupidest policy ideas, random musings, and other mental detritus. It’s unbearable.

For her. If I were her, I’d consider governor of California, maybe. But nothing else, and I’d certainly push national politics off the table. Because who fuckin needs that noise?

David Ellison reportedly told Trump he’d make “sweeping changes” to CNN if Paramount’s takeover of Warner Bros. gets approved. Meanwhile, Jared Kushner and three Middle East countries are backing the bid — while Kushner advises Trump on foreign policy. Corruption on display.

Regrettably, I have been traveling since the weekend following Thanksgiving, doing so with a raging head cold, and thus not experienced a single shred of holiday cheer. I haven't even been in the mood for Christmas music. I'm that person who's "just trying to get through" the holidays. I hate it.

I decided to watch The New Yorker documentary on Netflix and it's the most The New Yorker thing imaginable. It's kinda fun, kinda insufferable, mostly ridiculous, and you're glad it exists in the first place.

when you're a size 8 but the 10 was on sale

Know your rights. Protect your neighbors. New York is — and always will be — a city for all immigrants.

This. Is. Fucking. Fascism.

I heard that now they're placing people who criticize ICE under surveillance. I want it to be known to the entire world that I despise ICE to the core and I think their entire institution should be abolished. They are cruel, inhumane, and are examples of the worst of humanity Fuck ICE Fuck Fascism.

Remember folks: if you have any small amount of artistic talent, any sex appeal, or can make your friends laugh, the richest man on earth is crying screaming throwing up because he can’t be you.

WOW! AN HONOR! — GCN

Not to defend Olivia Nuzzi, who broke every rule in journalism and promoted a charlatan to his current position. But it's incredibly telling that she will lose her job, but RFK Jr. gets to stay in his job despite the reports of his drug use, his affairs and his defenestrating of public health.

“Olivia ends up at CBS” is the free square on 2026 bingo cards

this is extraordinary. too many people in my profession have circled the wagons around someone who lacks the moral sense of a child

I hate Politico, but I have to admit that this is pretty good reporting.

Rich Lowry is a bigoted piece of shit whose existence makes America a worse place. He's vapid patrician gentility used to mask gutter racism. He's a Brooks Brothers pocket square used to wipe Nick Fuentes' ass.

RFK Jr: "Two weeks ago we ended, under your leadership, a twenty year war on women". Three out of five men in this shot have been accused of sexual misconduct, harassment or abusive behaviour towards women. A fourth signed into law a near-total abortion ban in his state as governor.

I have excellent insurance, and suggesting this would cause my doctor to laugh in my face.

I fucking LOVE this newsletter.

Kelly: He runs around on stage talking about lethality and the warrior ethos.. That’s not the message that should be coming from the Secretary of Defense… He runs around on a stage like he’s a 12 year old playing army. It’s embarrassing.

Flying cross-country, and decided to watch the latest Jurassic Park flick. Can we please stop making these? They're terrible and depressing. Humans suck. The end.

I’ve never been a “defund the police” type of guy. I believe that police are necessary, despite their flaws. But ICE is different. I am 100% behind ending their existence and prosecuting every single one of them. ICE must go. End of discussion.

This is a really big story that should not be missed. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

In newly leaked audio, Peter Thiel admits he urged JD Vance to ignore Pope Leo XIV on moral questions — including the ethical development of AI. He goes even further, branding Leo “the woke American pope” and suggesting he’s a tool of the Antichrist.

Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

"X pie is bad" tell it to Satan in hell you monster

I am not going to dive into the back and forth on piracy. I have a side, you can guess what it is. But I will say one thing: if you get the books from your library, you're still not paying for it and the author does get compensated.

Bro it’s a goddamn miracle we survived 2025 (I mean, there is still time) so in 2026 it should be FUCK IT, WE BALL.

Losers with way too much money are very dangerous, yes. But they are all just pitiful, pitiful people.

If I’m understanding this correctly, X is owned by a white nationalist who pays poor people of color in developing countries to pretend to be working class white Americans to scare other white Americans into being afraid poor people of color from developing countries are going to ruin America?

CASSIDY: I know it's titillating, but I think we need to move beyond the titillation TAPPER: This isn't about titillation. This is about the fact that you are the chairman of the health committee and you voted to confirm somebody that by all accounts is actually making America less healthy

Crockett on MTG resigning: "Honestly, I was like, you got to be kidding. You're on the other side of the president for one week and you can't take the heat? Imagine what it is to sit in my shoes."

Dipshit is smashing out a car window with his gun, barrel first. Just rogue, cowboy stiff. There were two US citizens in the car. They were apprehended and detained for “obstructing” ICE by honking their horn to let people know ICE was in the neighborhood.

Good old Woz. Good for him.
