More is more. We’ve got 380 (or so) of our favorite new books, right here:

well *actually* rogue one is great ... if you ignore its faults

Me, before reading: I do love mess… Me, after reading:

Chocolate milk is a good post-workout snack, so chocolate pudding should be a good PRE-workout snack, yes? Yes? (I don't actually care if it's "good", I want to eat it and that's enough)

I got food poisoning from a crab pretzel at RennFest a few years ago so I ended my day puking at the base of a tree in full garb.

People who ride scooters: do yall just Rapture off the things when you get to your destination? Because wtf is this?

"I was trying to help my mom,” said 13-year-old Jayleane, shaking, as tears streamed down her cheeks. “I saw they were pulling her hair. They had the gun in front of me. I was scared.”

*old man voice* I've been at NPR long enough to remember when our Tiny Desk concerts were at an actually tiny desk.

A public TV and radio station in Western Alaska serves dozens of villages damaged by Typhoon Halong. But with federal funding eliminated, KYUK makes severe cuts to its staff and news department. n.pr/4qVulQV

This is *so gender* for me, it's actually INSANE.

The worst part of a mystery diagnosis journey is hearing/reading the words "your test came back normal."

Unfortunately, Aloof Wife / Mayor Husband describes mine and Kat's dynamic to a Tee. I am Aloof Wife, fighting for my life while my Mayor Partner talks to *anyone*

LMAO I don't have to suspect: I produced an interview with Ai Weiwei, and when I introduced myself, he became the Quintessential Chinese Dad/Uncle and *scolded me* about my bad Mandarin. It burst out of him like he couldn't help himself.

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.

Abigail Spanberger will be Virginia’s next governor and the first woman to hold the state’s highest office. Her campaign promised to fight the “chaos” of President Donald Trump’s second term and to address cost-of-living issues. https://bit.ly/3JEKGZp

Virginia has elected Ghazala Hashmi as the state’s next lieutenant governor, making her the first Muslim woman ever elected to statewide office in the United States. 19thnews.org/2025/11/virg...

Look, so much of kpop fandom begins with "well, what's THIS ONE'S name?" so by the time you've learned all 8 or 13 or 25 members, you're irrevocably invested.

Maybe we don't need to concern ourselves about how other people run their own social media interactions? Like, if people want to block, good for them! If other people prefer to mute, fine! What's it to you?

CDMX during Dia de Los Muertos is *magical*. The Catrinas, the ofrendas, the color and energy. Listen to Saeed, go go go! Pro tip: eat as much pan de muerto as you can — it’s one of my all time favorite pan dulces

As a matter of pure linguistics, it would be surprising if people didn't have trouble with the name Tchaikovsky, Dostoyevsky, Chopin, Beethoven. Schwarzenegger. Chalamet.

The hip-hop band reshapes its hypnotic melodies and serrating beats with the aid of MIDI-triggered robots and a desk full of glass bottles, coffee mugs and a pizza box. n.pr/47iWsSy

I hate our healthcare system so much.

My body feels like a rotting haunted mansion. At least it’s seasonally appropriate

I would love to have the theatrical cuts without needing to visit home and pull out my dad's beloved LaserDisc

“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡

This is antisocial behavior. I hate these scooters so much.

it is funny how much studio executives dislike making money

Evictions in DC hit record levels last year, with 1,869 households removed from their homes. We don't have final numbers for this year yet but avg. monthly evictions are the highest they’ve been in six years. New investigation from @51st.news @streetsensedc.bsky.social 51st.news/record-evict...

I wrote a little about some of the little details you might have missed in this video and why it hit me so hard as a trans person this morning: www.burnsnotice.com/you-have-to-...

I’m supposed to be in a big van on my way to RennFest right now. Instead, my ailing body is lying in bed and Missing Out.

The behind the scenes making of this is so good too www.instagram.com/share/BBPKQD...

Three years ago, I went to see a gastroenterologist for repeated bouts of extreme nausea and vomiting. She told me it was caused by my BMI. Then suggested I eat <[redacted] # of calories to do so. I’m only just re-starting the process to figure out what’s wrong w me. 1/

My whole world has currently narrowed to “not vomiting” which is a terrible way to live

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH

i want to remind people that the free press does not publish "journalism" in the way that someone who works in an actual newsroom would understand it

This is absolutely a large reason I could not enjoy this movie on a critical level. The treatment of Black women revolutionaries was so underwritten, I was wondering if I was seeing the same movie as everyone gushing about how revolutionary it was…

I just watched ONE BATTLE AFTER ANOTHER and it was beautifully shot and well made but ugh I actually really disliked a lot about the movie’s narrative, point of view (scattershot as it was) and character treatment. Looking forward to digging into thoughtful critique so send them my way!

Truly so grateful to be able to text my partner that a basement spider has gotten too big and needs to be brought outside.

I just think if you’re at a concert and you’re screaming over an act to be heard, it’s a good sign you should actually be quiet!!

There are many better things to do than crashing out on here: -going for a walk -kissing a cat/dog -taking a deep breath -taking a nap -eating chocolate chip cookies

Every Taylor Swift album is an opportunity to revisit her work and determine, once again, that she is not for me.

Being on any social media is like seeing a paper bag that says DEAD DOVE on it, opening said bag and being surprised to see a dead dove. At least people on Bluesky are funny about it.

🗣️it’s officially cool enough outside that my grumpy longhaired cat will deign to sit in my lap 🗣️

Tiny public radio station KUCB in Unalaska basks in love from afar. It and 13 other small public radio stations in Alaska finally catch a break. alaskapublic.org/news/politic...

If you want to understand open adoption, it makes sense to start with birth parents—yet studies of them are few. 2+ yrs ago, I began talking w/ birth mothers to try to understand what living in an open adoption is like for them, and what rights or options they might have if challenges were to arise.

I'm reminded of the 2015 CBS show Zoo - in which animals become Self-Aware and form a violent uprising against humans - more often than I ever thought when I first heard about that silly 3-season show.

Inside a New York City federal immigration courthouse, ProPublica reporter @tilleckert.com watched an ICE agent slam a woman, Monica Moreta-Galarza, to the ground as she begged for her husband to not be taken away. Listen to Eckert tell what happened.

1/ I’m Till Eckert, a ProPublica reporter. For the past 2 weeks, I’ve been going to the same NY immigration courthouse. Nearly every time, I see ICE agents arresting immigrants. Today, a woman was slammed to the ground after begging officials not to take her husband away. Thread 👇
