When the White House press pool motorcade reporters used to wait inside Trump's country club in Sterling, VA in the first term we would get finger sandwiches & coffee. It wasn't free. Our news organizations were subsequently billed ~$70 per snack session.

This is fucking amazing. Peter Thiel is confronted about his ties to Jeffrey Epstein and Palantir’s surveillance of Americans on his way to the 2025 Bilderberg conference. www.reddit.com/r/PublicFrea...

Apparently I'm doing this -- my open letter to that open latter about AI in writing and publishing. I emerged from Hibernation Week to write it, so god only knows how much sense it makes. But at least a human wrote it, so that's nice. Bonus: picture of my "cat," sweet baby Boomba.

I highly recommend people read @chuckwendig.bsky.social's response to that open letter to SFWA about AI that's making the rounds. Chuck hits it out of the ballpark with this essay.

"Mr. Urbaniak went on to record more than 60 albums, collaborating with other fusion notables, including the guitarists Larry Coryell and George Benson, the drummer Billy Cobham and the bassist Jaco Pastorius." Michal Urbaniak, Pioneering Jazz Fusion Violinist, Dies at 82 (gift link):

Bernie Sanders: "We need to be thinking seriously about a moratorium on data centers. You gotta slow this process down. It's not good enough for the oligarchs to tell us 'you adapt.' Are they gonna guarantee healthcare to all people? What are they gonna do when there are no jobs? Make housing free?"

All of the money that changed hands in the Teapot Dome scandal totaled less than $10 million after adjusting for inflation, and it was considered so corrupt we still teach it in high school government classes a century later.

Jesus I put too much salt in the pasta water.

my friend, a Woody Guthrie scholar who has become friends with the family, published a beautiful essay this week prompted by some inane lyrics from Welles www.anotherjaneprattthing.com/p/after-year...

Yep, I unfortunately had to share the witness table with him at this hearing. It didn’t go well for him

Cop: do you know why I pulled you over? Me: no, why? did you forget?

get in loser, we have more regrets to make before the year is out

That was always our position. It’s all about finding AN audience, not just THE audience; make stuff you think is cool then find other people who also think it’s cool. If I’m writing stuff I’m not passionate about, why would I expect anyone else to be?

It turns out classical music is actually quite hard to play well enough that people will want to listen to it, even if you don't have centuries of marginalization, harassment, and outright discrimination stacked against you. It ain't because you're a white guy. You're just mid.

Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.

One of my favorite presents ever—my dad found and framed this pic of my mother @sunminkimes.bsky.social at a Seattle courthouse after she passed her US citizenship test in 1981. Like so many of the people who come here to start a new life, she is the best of us—the bravest, strongest person I know.

This is the guy who is so petty, so self consumed that he's suing the Nobel people for not bestowing upon him the Nobel peace prize. He needs to be tackled and shackled and muzzled and locked away forever.

Does anyone know the exact text of the impeachment article that got Andrew Johnson impeached? Here it is: "Resolved, That Andrew Johnson, President of the United States, be impeached of high crimes and misdemeanors." That's it.

He’s just sitting in the backyard with his new giant banana toy in his mouth and it’s the cutest thing ever. You can go pet him and he just keeps it in his mouth. He loves it.

Terrible framing. It presumes JD Vance is not an anti-Semite himself and that he simply chooses to tolerate them in his pro-Semite party as a political sacrifice. This is false. Vance is their leader. He is a white nationalist anti-Semite actively building the party around others like himself.

(Passport problems and a strong reluctance to cross international borders at this time means I get to be the kid to house sit this year)

My mom is currently spending Christmas in Gubbio, Italy and sent me this video they took of their "tree" lighting there
