More than 400 years of history and a decade of advocacy were torn down Thursday afternoon when National Park Service employees removed every single display at the President’s House. 🔗 What's next? We explain: www.inquirer.com/politics/nat...

The Game Awards made attendance more accessible for people like this than devs btw

I could have gotten hired by so many marketing teams to do any number of “suspended by cables” stunts tonight at The Game Awards.

behold the souls of the damned, grasping for the living dead husk of a world torn asunder by greed and avarice

I think the internet’s baying hounds will *demand* an emergency podcast reaction from @romanmars.bsky.social and @elliottkalan.bsky.social, whether that is a reasonable thing for total strangers to demand about exactly one casting rumor on Deadline or not. deadline.com/2025/12/matt...

No comment, but here are some comments. Has he been watching the new Alan Partridge show?

it’s ok to hold absolutely zero compassion or empathy for someone who performs neither to others

I do enjoy that to Al Roker, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are Leo, Donnie, Mikey, and RALPH.

i’m not sure how but this is real antipolygraph.org/blog/2025/10...

one of the coolest things about ChatGPT is how you can actually just never use it. you can fill your whole entire life with simply not once using it. it's incredible.

The angriest I have gotten listening to NPR in the last 5 years has been every time a fucking ad for a fucking Ross Douthat podcast would come on.

If I were a despotic President making one big movie industry swing, I would just make Nia DaCosta the Artistic Director of Warner Bros. instead of let it be sold.

Pie is the glue that holds the resistance together. Can we please stop libeling each other’s sacred pies? This is what they want, to have us war over our greatest sign of peace. Piece.

Men will do things like announce “the most popular pie in the country is bad and it’s not debatable” and still be allowed to have jobs and drive cars.

My microwave sings a little song when my Hot Pocket is done. Should it have the right to vote?

'“I’m not interested in her incredibly bad writing," Nair said. "Real people are going to become disabled, sick, and die as a consequence of this.” And it could be years before we see the true scale of the damage.'

contains a *what* now? What kompromat does who have on whom that led us to this reality?

Ryan Lizza stretching this shit out not with his cliffhangers, those are good. The constant references to his machete-wielding war on bamboo are the “we get metaphors, man.”

speaking as a virginia beach native if these kind of dudes are plotting against ICE then there is wide runway in public opinion for straight up abolishing the agency under a dem presidency

primary *every single Democrat* who says that Mamdani does not know ball. In one meeting, a Mayor, not a Member of Congress or a Senator or a candidate for President, a just-elected *Mayor* mindbent a dude that the entire Democratic Party has struggled to do anything to stymie for almost a decade.

I imagine everyone of dreaded Boomer era has similar story: -My uncle fought in Battle of Bulge, vs Nazis -My future father-in-law was in submarine, vs Nazis -My dad was in training as Navy doctor, to fight Nazis Now MAGA/Trump/Hegseth: "Who are we to judge?" www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec...

“get the bum off the air” is a call to action from like…100 literal years ago. No seriously.

An ICE employee was among 16 men arrested after trying to solicit a minor for sex in Bloomington, Minnesota, police say "When he was arrested, he said, 'I'm ICE, boys,'" Bloomington Police Chief Booker Hodges said during a press conference. "Well, unfortunately for him, we locked him up."

All I can say is I attended a Democratic Party event in DALLAS, TEXAS 10 days ago with officials and candidates and the biggest cheers were for Mamdani and the most questions/most frequent topic of conversation was Epstein. We should not overthink this.

Amazon announced 14,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $40M last year. UPS announced 48,000 layoffs. Its CEO made over $24M last year. Intel announced 20,000 layoffs. Its new CEO's pay package is valued at nearly $69M. This is what I mean when I say the system is rigged.

The Dodgers being reluctant to allow Ohtani and Yamamoto to play in the World Baseball Classic (or with pitch count restrictions) is like Inter Miami telling Argentina they really need Messi to either not play or only play 30 minutes a game in a World Cup. MLB is a total joke. Absurd.

more of this please. The…action, not the horrible choice of keyframe image.

Hold up

This is the first page of The Viral Underclass. I am so glad I got to give her a signed copy and that I also got to send her a copy of the Chinese translation when it was published. She was so excited to see her words translated into Chinese.

if i were the NYT, i would simply not run a glam profile of olivia nuzzi

I know Teen Vogue’s heel turn has been pretty hard but if this is true it’s indefensible. Alice Wong was a force and I will miss her voice 💔

Many thoughts about my cyborg bitch boss goddess accomplice Alice Wong & all the things she meant but there is a tendency for white disabled people to overshadow conversations about disabled BIPOC including in death. I choose to let Alice speak for herself & uplift those she wanted to represent her.

Alice Wong, writer and disability activist, has died. She was an educator and a communicator and a warrior who lit the way. I’m grateful to have crossed paths with her. Rest in peace.

‘Death remains my intimate shadow partner. It has been with me since birth, always hovering close by. I understand one day we will finally waltz together into the ether. I hope when that time comes, I die with the satisfaction of a life well-lived, unapologetic, joyful, & full of love.’ —Alice Wong

spoiler alert but among the last words Alice Wong wrote were “Don’t let the bastards get you down.” I’m hanging onto that.

Our beloved Alice Wong has joined the ancestors. It was one of the great honors of my life to call Alice my friend, co-author & co-conspirator. She was a true genius, a force of nature the likes of which the world has never seen before. I love you, Alice, and am equal parts grateful and devastated

A former McKinsey consultant who is also a Harvard grad, a Rhodes scholar and the son of two college professors talking about every day Americans. The Democratic Party in a nutshell

I know one thing for absolute certain: South Park production is pulling an all-nighter to rewrite and re-animate the entirety of their next episode.

There is a groundswell of trolls not actually looking at the proposed calendar for MLS asserting various “100% facts” about it. This affects under 10% of the actual weeks MLS will play while also eliminating the entire month of June. Same folks are crowing about…games in January that don’t exist…?

You just know that “Did Women Ruin the Workplace?” bit would have done NUMBERS in this little clique

why the fuck are these freaks so obsessed with demonizing bog-standard over the counter drugs

Megyn Kelly has a 16-year old, a 14-year old, and a 12-year old at home.

Megyn Kelly advocating for there being a differentiation between one category of pedophile “not counting” “technically” as a pedophile is the most Megyn Kelly thing I have read in a while.

Of course there's a difference, and it's reflected in many state laws. But . . . that isn't the point. Middle-aged men coercing sexually mature but underage girls into sex is still illegal, exploitative, and vile. "But they weren't 8-year-olds!" is a really weird thing to say.

One of the 17 year old girls Matt Gaetz allegedly trafficked and had sex with needed the money to pay for braces. She ended up homeless and working at McDonald's. Just incredibly bleak stuff. archive.ph/CV16n

this please

@rianjohnson.bsky.social re: your “Asshole Studio Exec Cut”, I am of two minds. Everyone should beware John Rianson. Motherfucker is an enemy to art and the creative process and cinèmá. But also…this could be your “Chris Gaines” and you could just show up places and confuse and bewilder people.
