Knowledge is power and that's why bad people are putting so much effort into tainting or destroying information right now

We are finally back! Join Evan, Paul, and their special guest Scott Dorward LIVE on YouTube October 30th at 8pm eastern time. We shall be talking a lot and taking your questions. @evandorkin.bsky.social @mryellovich.bsky.social @sdorward.bsky.social www.youtube.com/live/asAUdh_...

"You leave the carnival with your arm around your girl and climb behind the wheel of your car. It feels like nothing could go wrong."

The reason these stochastic violence types are rarely if ever from "the left" is because left vs. right is meaningless now and has been for some time, just like Dem vs. GOP. It's people who want violence and power vs. people who want to live their lives and be left alone, maybe get a little weird

Never ask a woman her age, instead ask her what tales have carved their mark on her flesh. Ask if she is wizened, bent low from the sins of the past. Ask her if she believes in retribution

"Sometimes you can't trust the author on anything" 🤣🤣🤣 (Second favorite: "Confucius is Confusing")

If RFK Jr. had any interest in regulating big pharma or helping americans eat better or reducing chronic illness he would not have gutted the agencies he is in charge of. *Every* story about his alleged policy ideas should lead with this extremely elementary reality.

I didn't know 90% of this -- what a life! Dee was hands-down my favorite character on What's Happening; even as a kid I felt the show was ridiculously silly, and I watched it almost exclusively for her. RIP Dr. Danielle Spencer metro.co.uk/2025/08/12/h...

[extremely on-mushrooms voice] hear me out. what if we destroy capitalism by feminizing having money

Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you: Our funding depends on usage. So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

Dear Mr. President, Please release all the files. Signed, Epstein’s mother

Hot take, people who hate cities shouldn’t be in charge of cities

I would legit watch this; it will have a bitchen soundtrack

Shout-out to Seymour Plaza in Montclair NJ. Post-show at the Wellmont Theater, you can hang out (even sit!) and find your friends instead of being unceremoniously thrown out into traffic the way venues do it in good ol' NYC.

It's really weird to demand accountability from a NYC mayoral candidate for a deadly NYC shooting rather than the current NYC mayor, an ex-cop who campaigned on a "tough on crime" platform and promptly got indicted for crimes

I just found out Tom Lehrer died. To be honest, I didn't realize he was still alive, but whenever anyone involved with The Electric Company comes onto my radar I have to credit them with teaching me to read, and thereby setting the course for the rest of my life. #riptomlehrer

The US crash death rate is 3x higher than Finland. If you’re wondering why the Finns are so good at road safety, I wrote an article about it, below. (Spoiler: Autonomous vehicles have nothing to do with it.)

Whoa. Curiouser and curiouser... www.westsiderag.com/2025/07/25/l...

Post a book you love from the 1970s.

Really solid analysis of how Mamdani pulled it off in New York and how both parties are truly missing the lessons from my friend @dellavolpe.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/dellavol...

I actually used the word "cult" rather than "heresy," but I guess that's what happens to words when you translate them to Greek and back again. From a newspaper in Athens, Greece called Kathimerini. Thanks to Peter Quadrino for passing on my remarks to the author. www.kathimerini.gr/culture/book...

Rick Steves finishing his speech in Edmonds. This is about halfway back in the crowd and to the side. The patriotism of this crowd was something else. And Steves' point is right -- change is going to come from an engaged center that stands in *solidarity* with the most vulnerable.

Waiting for Cuomo's speech like...

Came across this old gem today

what are you supposed to do when the "good" political party doesn't treat a dozen credible sexual harassment claims as disqualifying for a political candidate. how are you supposed to ignore that

Brad is on TV and in the streets every day standing up to Trump and for our democracy, yet some people still believe Cuomo is the guy for the job simply because he yells louder. Don't rank Cuomo. He'll huff and he'll puff and he'll blow *our* house down.

"Most of the people who live outside the city drive cars to work. This is far more dangerous than riding the subway." This article is excellent. My one quibble, as a Staten Islander, is with the statement that the subway can whisk you to "anywhere in the five boroughs." I wish!

[Exit King.]

This is my favorite thing ever

the mainstream media has been steadily buying into the idea that science and academia are somehow "captured" by left and liberal ideologues, rather than the more obvious explanation that measured analysis leads people away from reactionary thought

I do not want your AI scam I do not want it Sam-I-Am I will not have it in my house I will not use it with a mouse I will not put it on my desk I think that it is quite grotesque I do not want it in my life Using it would cause me strife I do not want your AI scam Stop making this shit Sam-I-Am

it's obvious all these assholes are trying to trick people into using their ai bullshit so they can say "look at all the people using our ai bullshit!"

“I asked ChatGPT” well I asked the three Fates and the one with the scissors got very agitated when I told her you were using your one precious life thread talking to that cursed thing

vaccines are maybe the coolest thing we ever figured out. they are more impressive by a wide margin than the moon landing. We have never done anything better with our capacity for genius

A few years ago, a person who was not fond of my political songs, kept posting dumb stuff - and called me “a commie dyke Jew”. I know you shouldn’t feed the trolls, but I wrote him a song and sent it. He responded with a four 👍 up. So…here’s to politeness or something like that.

This is awful. I considered myself a fan and still didn't know half of her achievements. Glad I got to see her perform (twice). #RIPJillSobule variety.com/2025/music/n...

Happy birthday, Giorgio Moroder! 🎈🎉
