congressional democrats’ approval ratings have been more or less on par with cannibalism since 2016 and now are trying to force a “what’ll it be, america? him or us?” line in the sand with zohran mamdani.

When Obama announced his first campaign, the DNC establishment's initial amusement soured into resentment as he started surging with young and urban voters. His movement was told to get in line and stop dividing the party right when it needed a strong, centrist core. Just reminiscing. No reason.

It's very nice that even a single world leader is vocal about not viewing my profession with open contempt.

Antisemitism is a very real problem—obviously on the Right but also in some very troubling corners of the Left—and we do need to uproot it with extreme prejudice. But the job becomes a million times harder when all the focus is on the Dems who are just trying to denounce a genocide.

absolutely cannot focus on what this lady is saying with the baby riding on helm's deep back there

truly chilling anti-jewish rhetoric from Lander in last night's victory speech.

superman 2: this time, it's a CHICK!

very funny for Al Mohler to declare this the death of a denomination when his own Southern Baptist Convention put their HQ up for sale two years ago lol

the french were so right to call a girlfriend a petite amie. she is my little friend.

david frum lying about muslims? man, you think you know a guy.

The thing about this story is that it can only keep getting funnier

every stupid screwup in this admin is either 30 Rock-coded, Veep-coded, Curb Your Enthusiasm-coded or Always Sunny-coded. Algaegate is all four at once. Very powerful.

Antisemitism is structurally necessary to Elon Musk’s politics, because he is desperate to brand himself an insurgent against the powerful elite, but as the world’s first trillionaire, he needs a definition of “elite” not rooted in wealth or corporate ownership.

I've been trying to figure out what it is about the town in Widow's Bay that feels so immediately dimensional and substantive and lived in and in this @polygon.com interview, Hiro Murai explains how they cracked it: copying The Simpsons. www.polygon.com/7-questions-...

oh my god

i'm sure someone else has written about this but really bleak how much of modern fandom has nothing to do with the music itself and is really just armchair brand micromanagement of someone's career, like watching someone else play a video game and muttering "idiot" the entire time.

That’ll teach those kids to be born to a poor mom

Norman Rockwell painted this in 1943, when the marginal tax rate for the top .1% was 88%.

some very good seth rogen lore here

not the point but is the guy in the khakis 9 feet fall or something? looks like Gandalf and the hobbits if they were fash.

If you too have been wondering why the Trump Administration can't stop slobbering over the annexation of Greenland, the reason appears to be, at least in part, to bring back Red Lobster's all-you-can-eat shrimp deal. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...

surprised at how many people i’ve seen side eye tom holland’s sobriety thing, as if it was an overcorrection. less than a week ago, a beloved child actor died following a horrific battle with addiction. i don’t blame any celeb for being extra cautious. some of us could probably learn a thing or two.

meanwhile, across town, samantha had also thrown her party into chaos. and she, too, was looking to make a fast exit.

obsession/backrooms hit because they understand the innate dread in the two most sinister developments of post-covid reality: oh no, my crush likes me back and oh no, vibes are off at work

one of the consequences being 'Rod is unemployed'

Just learned about the passing of the great Nigel Cabourn, the fashion designer whose love of vintage clothing and heritage styles is as responsible as anyone for the workwear style so many lean into, but very can do it with Nigel's joie de vivre. RIP.

Been way too long since we got one of these years-in-the-making scoops where every other line sends your jaw crashing down yet another floor.

they’re all laughing at you, sir. they’re saying you’re the worst Construction Project President of all time. there’s only one way to prove them wrong: finish the ballroom in record time with the same crew you used for the pool.

toy story just unquestionably the best film franchise of all time. 5 for 5 is insane.

that media training barely lasted one sentence before “happy pride!” kicked in.

Do any posts haunt you like the ghost of a person you watched drown without trying to help

Gambit from the X-men should throw cut out Family Circus comics instead of playing cards, incapacitating his foes with laughter instead of kinetic energy

The sort of thing you get offered by a guy in a Hold Steady song

As was foretold:

pete hegseth is engaged in open racial discrimination against black officers. the clear message is that there is no place for black or women leadership in his military

plot twist from a mystery novel where the detective is 12

Wrote about the latest chapter in the American Century of Humilitation, one which could have been avoided by a simple reading of the Book of Proverbs.

For Bargatze to have played it so antiseptically safe his whole entire career only to fudge on the biggest, stupidest, ugliest money grab this administration has ever gone for, man. Money Rots Your Brain theory unbeaten.
