There’s an historical costume drama about a smoked fish business and I feel like it was written for me alone

Oof, bad for the Jews “We regarded Witkoff and Kushner as Israeli assets that dragged a president into a war he wants to get out of”

Google searches for “can’t sell house” have just hit a new all-time high. Nationally, 1.14 million homes are sitting on the market. Only 443,000 sold in the first two months of 2026. I'd expect home prices to go lower. #EconSky #Housing

One agent also appeared to fill out an incident report with ChatGPT.

We’re doing an Iwo Jima not a Stalingrad

I ask ChatGPT to be my job coach now that I’m blind, and it was incredibly flattering if unrealistic, highly recommend

Today was bad for the Jews

In all my years at WaPo, this happened to me twice, and it was a huge Marty-Baron-is-calling-your-boss-level deal. Now that I’m indy, it’s three times in a month, that I know of! It’s fucking disgusting. I made $220 from paid subscriptions last month and a salaried journalist is stealing from me.

Kent claims Israel tricked Trump into war with Iran. Trump has called to invade Iran for 46 years. Kent claims Israel tricked America into war with Iraq. In reality, Israel opposed it. Kent claims his wife was killed in a war "manufactured by Israel." She was killed by ISIS in Syria.

Criticize AIPAC exactly as you criticize all the money from Gulf states sloshing around DC Treating it otherwise singles out the Jewish state for one reason alone

Before DOGE: never got a dark web warning from my bank that my SSN was compromised After DOGE: I’m frozen with all three credit bureaus and filing a stolen identity affidavit with the IRS

"His remarks have no basis in reality" is much more powerful than the oft-seen "without citing evidence"

Happy vomit all over the subway day to those who celebrate Happy Galoshes day to everybody else

There are many on here who want to blame Israel and deny the racism that posture entails Cure your hearts dummies, you are how the holocaust happened

If they didn’t have the Jews to blame, they would have to invent Jews

National Counterterrorism Center Director Joe Kent resigned effective 15 minutes ago, citing his antisemitic conspiracy theories as a reason.

An EXTREMELY helpful thing folks can do, if they live near a federal courthouse, is volunteer for Habeas Dockets. Docs in habeas cases aren't viewable online by default. But they are at courthouses. This site makes them available/searchable for free. Helps lawyers a lot habeasdockets.org/volunteer/

This is a major victory. Thank you it @smith.senate.gov and all those who worked to protect our most precious places.

We aren’t shaming the antisemites hard enough

For the antisemites in the back and the cabinet: superpowers of 350 million, don’t get pushed around by countries of 8 million

Shorter terrorism Dude: the Jews did it

I have no idea why I pulled this, but it is the greatest headline

Pretty much any city in Europe meet my needs for walkability and not owning a car I just don’t have the rights to stay in Schengen for more than three months

My healthcare costs are also $0 I’m not sure the rest of the country gets to $5000/month even with rent + healthcare + transportation expenses *Theoretically, I could have Medicaid everywhere —blue states at any rate — but I’m going to unfuck my finances and finish this book really

Here's an easy job for the next sane administration: Bovino has now openly lied multiple times under oath, an offense which upon conviction per 5 USC 8312 strips defendants of any federal retirement benefits to which they might have been entitled

Never have so many fought so that so few could make so much money.

As someone still in active treatment for breast cancer, all I have to say is I hope she appreciates the decades of government-funded research that enabled her to have a “strong prognosis”. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/16/u...

I cannot afford to live here anymore For 20 years, I told myself my transportation costs are effectively zero and I don’t need to own a car But rent/mortgage + a car still don’t get anywhere near $5k in the rest of the country

90 yo cousin: How many Hadassah members away from Ari Melber do you think I am? Me:??? 90 yo: I want you to marry Ari Melber

Freud got to self reflection first and not Aristotle or Adam in the Garden of Eden he is very smart you moron

Old people vote. Hard to live on Social Security when they’re cooking the inflation numbers

Constitutional question for dummies: were she charged for perjury to Congress *by Congress* would that be covered by executive pardon?

One side (the left) is concerned about how state power is being wielded to suppress speech via coercive, often violent, means The other (conservatives) is upset over how social norms made them feel uncomfortable. THESE ARE NOT THE SAME THING. They aren’t remotely similar.

Platner then: "Sorry-not sorry about Nazi tat because despite being big WWII buff & 1 million war movies I didn't know it was." Platner now: "Akshually, it's a badge of honor." What an insult to *every* veteran this is. Especially Marines who fought Nazis.

This part isn’t quite right: they went to Ivy’s, saw the 4th gen legacies from boarding schools like Bush and *bought in* to the idea that they were somehow more deserving more correct more right about the systems of the establishment

there is a reason you rarely see op-eds from people who actually grew up around MAGA folks and in deep-red america *unless the angle is to chide liberal readers for a lack of empathy or understanding etc* they don’t want pieces that say: i know these ppl. i lived with these ppl. they’re fash.

The right-wing voices that NYT has managed to fine -- Douthat, Stephens, etc. -- *do not represent MAGA*. Notably! The thing is: legitimately, accurately representing MAGA means *lies & bigotry*, which are against the NYT's own stated values.

They really did choose the dumbest imaginable thing for the dumbest imaginable reasons and are surprised

There’s this certain person who will toss you, “this is nice but I am interested in solutions” to anything I say or write. I usually ignore them. But sometimes I have the time. I told this woman about a self organizing tenant union, community garden, school, pay what you can reading group.

She’s not afraid to ask the hard questions like: how does time work? Why is directionality always forward?

I just asked AI to summarize a horoscope I am high

This is a good lesson for journalists: Use plain language to state true things clearly.

Did they fire all the experts then get surprised by the results again
