I am tickled.

A lot of the time I stop reading an advice column question when it says “I’m a 23 year old” because I go “ah yes the problem is you’re 23.”

Tell me the biggest gap between movie score quality and movie quality. I'll go first: First Man. This score rips and I listen to it at least once a week while working.

Honey what’s wrong? Have you done enough void-screaming today?

I keep seeing "none of these make news" posts like these... ... Even though the Trump/Bondi story is leading the NYT and Washpost home pages right now

TIRED: the men are the problem WIRED: the dating apps are the problem INSPIRED: ok but like have the scientists tried making us just do the worm thing where we I dunno just reproduce asexually however that works GALAXY BRAIN: actually if we all could do the worm we’d all be having way more sex

How to Train Your Dragon is in fact about the glass cliff. Astrid works her ass off to be a dragon slayer and THEN the rules change and suddenly ooooo Hiccup knows how to do this. In this essay I will

I do not know how to fix it, but I cannot say enough how much we in the news need to figure out how to handle the “flood the zone with shit” strategy.

Panic World is explaining so much that a lot of us political reporters aren’t equipped to.

Not only that but news organizations need to defend their own reporters. 👀

Exactly this. See also: AP, WSJ
