This. A fucking travesty and tragedy.

Every word of this is true. If you had any doubts that Putin was controlling the deranged lunatic in the White House, that should end today.

I love it when biz reporters try to stay in their lane even when it's totally fucking gross.

Don't protest or you might get murdered. Just the way it is.

Brutal.

So to recap, Trump: - Started a war for no reason on the belief that Iran would surrender immediately - Killed thousands including over 100 elementary schoolgirls - Threatened genocide up to and including nuclear war - Then backed down in exchange for a worse position than the US had before ?

Read this. Have hope.

something strange and horrible and somehow fitting that we should have a very real threat of madman civilizational destruction at the very moment when we also have humans on the dark side of the moon taking pictures that show how small, precious, and beautiful our world and existence is

We are terrorizing an entire country. www.wsj.com/world/middle...

Holy shit

My goal in life is to own a tourist trap goldmine. If it serves pastrami on rye, all the better.

No one was more surprised than me.

It’s annoying to see the phrase “overlapping language” used to describe what is actually PLAGIARISM. The NY Times reviewer got AI to do his work for him. AI stole a real writer’s words, which the reviewer claimed as his own. “Overlapping language” is too mild a phrase. It's PLAGIARISM.

This is what's known as a "righteous burn".

“The Arsenio Hall Show” marked the emergence of a younger, less white crowd in the provinces of late night. In an interview with Vinson Cunningham, Hall reminisces about his comedic peers, and what it’s like to be a Black celebrity and “laugher addict.” newyorkermag.visitlink.me/5JmnKW

It is great to see these big turnouts in these big blue cities, but the substantial turnouts in smaller red and purple cites and towns around the country are probably more important and striking. There were ~1000 very energized people at the event in the quite purple area near where we live!

To whoever did this at the #NoKings in Boston: Thank you.❤️ It made me tear up. And we must to be reminded of needless damage to humanity that results directly from the careless, bellicose bluster coming from the Pentagon and White House.

🤯😲

It's beyond great that trump's hometown hates him so goddamn much.❤️

Massive #nokings turnout in Chicago. Love to see it!

Today marks three years since my good friend, former mentor, and recent co-author Bill Zehme died. He was 64. Here's the intro I wrote for our (mostly his) 2024 Johnny Carson biography, "Carson the Magnificent," slightly adapted for Chicago magazine. www.chicagomag.com/chicago-maga...

In case anyone is afraid that Stephen Colbert will soon be out of work. Perfect project. I wonder if he's seen the recent Instagram post from Gandalf the Bombed—aka Ian McKellen. www.rollingstone.com/tv-movies/tv...

Trump does not think strategically, historically, geographically, or even rationally. He does not connect actions he takes on one day to events that occur weeks later. Allied leaders know that if they help him in the Gulf, he won't be grateful, or even remember www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

"Donald Trump, Pete Hegseth, Kash Patel—young men admire them because of what they are able to get away with. But getting away with bad behavior has nothing to do with the masculine ideal, because it’s dishonorable. And honor is what’s missing in the manosphere."

“But, as you see, it's a beautiful day, the Strait of Hormuz is open and people are having a wonderful time.”
