Baby Steps is out today! Here's the side project I've been working on alongside all the other launch shenanigans: A meditative nature stream where Nate violently falls into frame every 15 minutes. Designed for your second monitor or TV screensaver.

ICYMI last week on The Outfit, we discussed how an apparently reform-minded Chicago sheriff, in order to win suburban votes & honestly battle the mob in 1964, turned to institutional homophobia as a wedge issue, attacking gay bars--benefitting the mob & corrupting himself. Possibly relevant today!

you read what I wrote and are quite reasonably going “hrm no that can’t be right” but

Microsoft gave guidance on H1Bs to its employees last night

This is surprisingly kind of funny and "I'm gonna go suck Donald Trump's dick" is getting me in a 2014 ass Twitter post kind of way for some reason.

If you don’t feel like writing to Disney but do want to complain to someone, this is another great option. In LA, KTLA is nexstar.

if these companies would just put out a statement saying “we told him to go fuck himself” they would instantly have the type of loyal and dedicated customer base corporations dream of and spend decades trying to cultivate

We already had technology this good in 2007 (a forum where two bodybuilders argued incessantly about whether a week has six or seven days in it)

as an expert, it is my expert opinion that parents have to help their kids with the computer, and that this will definitely happen as it has for generations
