When humans do this we call it "smoking"

I will be joining Denver in a moment!

You know if we just stopped doing anything work related until our Congress impeached him (for either the improper use of military force, or the pedophilia protection, or the bribes, or literally any of the other high crimes he's committed just this week) this would all end in like a 3 week span.

A scepter snatch’d with an unruly hand Must be as boisterously maintain’d as gain’d; And he that stands upon a slipp’ry place Makes nice of no vild hold to stay him up

I think convicting a drug slinging Bolshevik in NYC these days is gonna be harder than they think

Because the world can seem dark and desperate these days, I do appreciate the temporary reminder that love is not something you generally fall neatly into. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/26/s...

Frankly, I have always wondered why more campaigns didn't do this. Constituent services are such an important part of good politics.

Lol @vanityfair.com changed their newsletter to be from the new guy who nobody knows or recognizes or cares about and now their emails go to spam.

The audio of the ATC is pretty shocking. Kudos to the Jetblue pilot for staying calm and professional, but our commercial pilots shouldn't have to dodge invisible US airforce jets. youtu.be/KlIM2CMDuOA?...

You are infinitely closer to struggling than you ever will be to billionaires

Oh yeah I forgot we have half a decade of perfect call transcripts to sort through. Let's release those too while we're raiding archives.

Explaining to my family how I kinda wound up in the Epstein files is gonna be a blast next Thursday, I'm not being sarcastic this is gonna top the year I made the whole family play HQ.

Legit thought this was an Onion headline.

@harvard.edu would be easy for u to confirm or refute this as he appears to have done it from his official Harvard email account If so, seems worth doing a review to see what else blatantly illegal might be in there

How's this for a hot take from a straight attractive guy: I could write an entire series about how media's original sin was prioritizing the visual appeal of subjects and experts over their ability to produce anything of value. Miller is a former R who shouldn't be lecturing the left on hotness.

Ok we've released the files, can we dismantle the oligarchy now or were we just looking to go through a pedophile's inbox for the lols?

it's so funny that alex jones was totally right about everything, the government is a bunch of drug-addled pedophiles and masked regime thugs are grabbing people off the streets, and now he has to pretend it's all a hoax

If this man is not in jail by next summer I will rent the biggest booth at the Martha's Vineyard farmer's market and exclusively sell framed copies of this email.

As someone who is one of the better ones at making money on the internet for journos, I'm becoming increasingly convinced that worker collectives are the only long term sustainable form of independent journalism. It will not make anyone a billionaire, but you can make more than you spend.

it's a hell of an act -- what do you call it

This is a great course taught by the original blogger-turned-columnist, highly recommended for anyone (writers and non-writers) looking to get their expertise out in the world.

Actually curious to see how this plays out. The far left is expecting another Obama, high on the hope and change rhetoric, fairly moderate in governance, still very much tethered to the capitalist order and ultimately a disappointment to card carrying socialists. He stands to disappoint someone here

We should never talk about billionaires without mentioning that they are dangerous money hoarders ever again.

Anyway, here’s what’s wrong with the stupid ballroom: www.elizabethspiers.com/donald-trump...

If Toronto wins the World Series the rule is America becomes Canada, nobody knows this because the last time it happened Canada beat Philadelphia, and Clinton was like "double or nothing" which they wisely agreed to, but now we're here (like most Clinton era policies, it felt prudent at the time).

First thing, Tulane’s a very competitive school so congrats to the monkeys for getting in there in the first place.

I wrote the first version of this draft almost exactly a year ago, but I wasn’t ready. I am now. thebarbedwire.com/2025/10/27/t...

At the end of her column @espiers.bsky.social says she looking for work. I have to say she is one of the people I most look forward to reading these days. When so many mediocre writers rise upwards like hot air, it was shocking to hear this.

You have to be willing to walk away from these guys if they let you down, just as a matter of basic self respect. It's not a fandom. You're hiring them to do a job or not.

This, FWIW, is my current teaching policy on AI, always subject to revision. It is, I recognize, easier applied to creative writing, which draws students who *want* to take the course rather than have to.

We need to talk about how social media algorithms push moms down a slippery slope of distrust. From "Are my kids getting enough support in school?" To "Maybe I should homeschool." To "Maybe modern medicine is bad." I've seen this first-hand in research I'm doing on parenting apps. 1/🧵

This timeline is cursed with a whole host of ghoulish reality but I think having to explain Bari Weiss to my 99 year old grandmother is up there with the worst of it

Nice try, “Paul A. Thompson”

Went to see this on the big screen tonight, can confirm it is indeed lol

Pope Leo is spitting. www.npr.org/2025/10/09/n...

This, by the way, is what "testing the Supremacy clause" looks like in practice. Kudos to Portland cops for upholding their oath to serve and protect their community, but a sad state of affairs when the state sanction enforcement branches are arguing. Back the blue, I guess??

"A practice that would have been unthinkable under past administrations is becoming normalized: sending ICE detainees, without due process, to far-flung prisons in countries with notorious human rights records." www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Somebody tell Trump about Jubilees (the historic monarchy tradition not the SFW gangbang videos). If we're gonna have a king we might as well get the good shit

Only vibe code that matters to me is "thou shalt not attempt to finish the interrupted story a third time unless expressly invited"

this is very good — lol, lmao —

My AIM screen name in 7th grade was SimmerDownNowDC because this skit aired a week before a busload of LI middle school honor society kids went to Washington DC and spent 3 whole days telling vast numbers of federal employees to "simmer down now."

Donald Trump wanted to give King Charles one of Dwight Eisenhower's swords. The director of the library said no. He was told to resign or be fired. WTF. No swords for Kings.

Bless this source for providing such a vivid and potentially enduring image of the Veep-like clusterfuck this all stands to be

Gotta pick up some new binder pages for my Big Book of Shitty Christians Being Shitty
