This WSJ article adds some fascinating context to the NYT article that has the mother of a 14 year old model brought to Mar-a-Lago for a party having Maples come up to her and saying keep those girls away from these men and my husband. Maples denies she said it.

people are arguing about the cultural impact of avatar, and yet this image is one of the funniest things i’ve ever seen

When Bari Weiss's CBS News is debunking your hateful MAGA BS ...

Real "oh my god, she admit it" moment here. Trump is treated as an uninteresting figure without agency so we can dump endless criticism on liberals for how they react to his "natural disaster." He "doesn't participate in moral frameworks" lmfao

conservatives remembering their weird fake obama controversies

Mamdani has AOC-level powers to make bigoted middle aged white dudes lose their damned minds.

David Sacks in 2025 vs David Sacks in 2023 In less than three years, the Biden administration bailing out Silicon Valley venture capitalists has been completely forgotten.

I’m sorry, but why the fuck should I care about whatever the Republicans are yelling about in Minnesota and fraud. This is what Democrats always do, we let the Republicans set the term of the debate. Even if this guy actually stole the money, I’ve got bigger fucking problems

Y’all ever walk into a public restroom and immediately whisper “Jesus Christ”

The largest generation in U.S. history is in their 70s now. And Stephen Miller’s podcaster wife thinks it’s suspicious that there’s a huge surge in home health aides.

Drama in Nick Fuentes-world tonight after prominent groyper "Vrillium" was exposed for wearing women's clothes and describing himself as gay. Huge blow to the groyper community. Vrillium blames JD Vance supporters for digging up the dirt on his gay past: “It was some gay shit.”

Saw Bluesky described as where elder millennials go to retire from the internet, and immediately felt the peace that passes all understanding wash over me. None of have to struggle any longer. We completed our time.

Legitimately would be more trustworthy than CBS News right now lol

Thank you, New York Times. I too agree that The Onion had the same level of cultural impact this year that Sabrina Carpenter did.

We watching Giants Raiders as a family?

Me when I’m put in charge of one of the largest broadcasting networks in the country “is this what it’s like to be hounded out of society?”

If you’re going to talk about how podcasts became video products you need to at least gesture toward both network TV and ESPN’s mid-day programming. The video podcast isn’t new, it’s just a talk show with worse guests and production values.

it's so deeply unfair that the NFT haters get content like this after barely a year of hype, and meanwhile the Tesla haters are dying of old age waiting for our time in the sun

another robot highlight for 2025: man wearing humanoid mocap suit kicks himself in the balls

After Elon Musk’s Delaware Supreme Court victory, Forbes now estimates his net worth at $749 billion. Elon will likely be a trillionaire within the next year.

Maria Farmer’s FBI report from 1996. If law enforcement had taken this more seriously, how many Epstein victims might have been spared?

oh no all the fake journalists funded by billionaires to divide the electorate and destroy informed consensus are now fighting with each other

little drunk off that Kirkland nog

From the right-wing Manhattan Institute's focus group of Gen Z conservatives -- just jaw-dropping stuff. We have a very sick society. www.city-journal.org/article/manh...

Breaking: Rep. Ro Khanna says the Trump DOJ's production "does not comply with" the Epstein Files Transparency Act. Khanna says he and Rep. Thomas Massie "are exploring all options" — including impeachment of DOJ officials, inherent contempt, or referring individuals for obstruction of justice.

Congratulations to everyone who wrote an op-ed about how he just wants americans to eat better

Some of these redactions are almost like modern art

Dr Oz: "The creation of a penis costs on average in America $150,000 per child ... if you add testicles, that's extra"

CNN has a show with a similar line. That the problem with this country is we just aren’t talking to each other. It’s the kind of diagnosis that a toddler would land on.
