Elon Musk looks like he stared at the arc of the covenant too long.

Subway Hero!

Hero jury saves hoagie hurler from legal grinder www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/u...

Just digging through old emails on a regular Wednesday morning

sandwch guy is the gyro we need

Time to place a celebratory order from Capo Deli.

🚨🚨🚨 The jury has reached a verdict. Sean Dunn, aka the DC Sandwich Guy, has been found NOT GUILTY of assault.

Rep. Yassamin Ansari has set up a table and this sign outside Speaker Johnson’s office.

In my brief time as an op-ed editor (<year), Brettbug Stephens argued Ashkenazis might be genetically superior, & Tom Cotton called for violence against George Floyd protestors. Some of us were constantly pushing back. I met with Sulzberger multiple times. Lip service was given, nothing changed.

@damonberes.com wrote a real barnburner this week, on what we are permitting the AI chatbot industry to do to us all. www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Right in the middle of a White House event promoting their bizarre vision of "health," one of them passed out and required medical attention. The writers are getting lazier and lazier.

i closed out my column this week with this preemptive jab at basically every commentator currently looking for ways to say that last night didn’t count

Many are saying you should read Neither Settler Nor Native by Mahmood Mamdani

BREAKING: OpenAI is requesting US government support to help guarantee financing for the massive investments in AI chips and data centers it needs for expansion, per Bloomberg.

Mamdani’s win is a warning for media: Better get some leftist contributors or you simply won’t be able to cover/understand what is happening around America.

The #1 lesson from yesterday’s blowout: Humanities majors killed on the job market 1) Mamdani- Africana Studies 2) Spanberger -French 3) Sherill - Global History

The way all of these people convinced themselves that Mamdani is antisemitic is a subject far more worthy of media examination than any of the ‘groupthink on campuses!’ thinkpieces we’ve been subjected to

Hottest shirt of 2025.

👇🎯 This was always a category error mistaking the site for the structural vibe. The way you know this is to think about how much fun this place was last night & during Game 7 of the World Series.

A year ago today, we had a really terrible election night, and because I know how people fall into despair I sat down at 11pm and wondered what I could tell you. I told you:

good morning specifically to the FBI agent who introduced Mamdani’s dad to Marx

just....enjoy this

BLUESKY ELDER ELECTED NYC MAYOR

[big-picture thought that I’ll eventually turn into a blog post or something]: One of the real developmental challenges for Bluesky over the past year is that the site hadn’t been fun, because *2025 hasn’t been fun.* The vibes under fascism are rarely gonna be uplifting.

Low-key disappointed that New York City elected a Bowdoin alum before electing an Oberlin alum. SMDH. ...I mean, he's great and all, but he's no Obie.

Musk: dissa sad day for da western civilization! Musk: [inhales ketamine] i choosa da wrong day to quit ketamine Musk: how coulda this getta worse Grok: it looks like voters across the country have rejected republicans Musk: [licking envelope] i choosa da wrong day to stop mailing my semen to women

[twitter headquarters] Elon Musk: eyyyy itsa me, elon musk! Musk: eyyyy New York you gotta electa cuomo to sava western civilization, capiche? Musk: i endorsa cuomo! Musk: anna my endorsement, mama mia, datsa mean something! [immediately pisses himself in a ketamine hole]

Matt Levine (@matt-levine.bsky.social) keeps writing about AI in precisely the same tone he wrote about crypto and NFTs. "This is, you know. This is fine." www.bloomberg.com/opinion/news...

For Democrats? Certainly. You can't be forever apologizing for "half of his supporters are deplorables" when he's making AI memes about dropping shit on you.

Effective politics requires relationships & community. Today’s parties only think about harvesting individual votes, not recognizing that the social investment will actually get them more votes & build long-term support. Good parties go even further by integrating into community life year round.

The vibe on here last night felt pretty good. We need more of that. More hope, or whatever.

Enjoying an unhurried and delightful meal at The Table Of Success. My waiters keep bringing me off-menu amuse bouches "from the chef." Ah here comes another crudo. Sublime.

Andrew Cuomo should move to Florida and run for Governor. (He would lose and we’d all get to enjoy watching him eat shit again.)

“tom homan is a bitch” is a winning message

Pay your taxes and STFU.

One thing a lot of pundit types don’t understand about younger politicians is that they don’t start out careerists and that might mean they mean what they say and the fearlessness isn’t a posture. Being good at messaging doesn’t contradict that.

Zoomer men really gotta log off the Hitler site if they ever want to have sex again

there are basically not enough republican voters to create enough safe seats to withstand the kind of wave that, for example, turned virginia into a democratic supermajority state for the first time in the modern era of its politics

sweep the leg

Apparently all you needed to do to predict the NYC election results was read that one N.K. Jemisin novel.

this is objectively hilarious

A pro-affordability, anti-Trump-corruption message unites the party. Every candidate can run on that, and every candidate can have their own take to fit that to their constituents. There's really no need to find fights to pick when the party agrees on more than it disagrees

Bill Ackman, soon: “I think we can still win this…”

If you are a Democratic senator watching these results and the lesson you take is "I should cave and help Republicans reopen the government for nothing more than a promise written on toilet paper" then you shouldn't be in the Senate anymore

ahh yeah here he comes, big dersh, alan dershowitz himself, looks like he brought a bag lunch, smart

Any word on what channel Alan Dershowitz will be appearing on tonight?
