A Hampton Inn in Asheville just canceled my family's reservation because our address (incorrectly) showed Asheville—and the hotel bars locals within 50 miles. When I asked why, they said, "because of our homeless population," adding that most hotels here have similar policies. This is outrageous.

ahahaha shedeur beat capn ivermectin

I mean c’mon

<$250k grants from Tyler Cowan and the Stripe founder guy if you can come up with a “new aesthetic” for the 21st C. Hmmmmm ok! Hope one of my friends gets this weird money. newaesthetics.art

64 days in Chicago: The story of Operation Midway Blitz. Our team fanned out to cover the before, during and after of the federal government’s months-long raid on an American city. This is worth your time to understand the United States today www.chicagotribune.com/2025/12/28/c...

Bird Hunted To Near Extinction Due To Infuriating 'Fuck You' Call

Looking good, Chicago.

I enjoyed reading Paul Musgrave on lunch in Qatar. Remembering again when I expressed an interest in what is now called "Food Studies" and was told by Prof. Steve Ozment: "Miss Spang. This is Harvard. You can't study Home Economics." musgrave.substack.com/p/a-lunch-in...

"The win had changed her life, but not in the ways she had hoped." A devastating, deeply moving story by my dear friend @caseyparks.bsky.social about how poverty, politics, and cruelty shaped a trans teenage runner's world.

much of fitness culture in the US was developed by people who literally entered sports and physical education instead of going to therapy and the attitudes around intensity and effort kinda reflect that. the smiling Jazzercise folks were right and your football coach / PE teacher was wrong

Wrote about Miles Miller and his 2025 album Mr. Runaway that should absolutely be on your best-of list this year. Story is up @rollingstone.com now. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Excellent on-the-ground reporting by @thexylom.com, the Atlanta-based, international, science and health newsroom. How USAID’s withdrawal from Zimbabwe fueled a black market in HIV medication.

guys GUYS do you want to feel _completely insane_ please enoy this 1989 public television program called ECON AND ME which features, in part, a diverse group of children walking in a circle chanting OPPORTUNITY COSTS OPPORTUNITY COSTS youtu.be/keit6rlKXCk

While attempting to buy winter boots, I am reminded of the weirdest job search ever. Buckle up: it’s a wild ride. It was my last year of grad school, and I had an interview for what I thought was my dream job. It was an open rank search where they were hoping to hire two people. +

ugh that malik willis injury looked bad

Notice JD Vance is unbothered by this

deadass?

DCWP is the city agency with the most power and know-how to zap scammers and putting in an ideological pro has the potential to be earth-shaking basically with or without the city council's cooperation

The amount of things that happen in the first episode of Alias would take up a full Apple show’s first season now.

Via Richard Tofel‬: "What it’s like getting comments these days from the regime in Washington." "Comments" in this context means giving the people involved in a news story the chance to respond before publication. link.propublica.net/view/5f0a0ac... Here's a case I found particularly creepy:

honestly having albuquerque to myself for a few days sounds really nice

i got my wife a tagine for christmas and not only is it an attractive object the first meal was amazing

This is just sending the reader a signal to be mad at the brown lady

This is the logical and inevitable conclusion of the last decade of elite media "free speech" discourse.

THE FACT THAT ONE OF THE POP-TARTS CHOSE TO LIVE MAKES THE WHOLE THING WORSE SOMEHOW

“Students gather on The Lawn at the University of Virginia. The commonwealth’s flagship university only began enrolling women at its main campus in Charlottesville in 1970.” That’s within the lifetime of many people currently in charge of education and government.

then is brutally mocked by the robot

it’s probably because the murder rate is historically low, right guys

In Ada Louise Huxtable’s original knives out review of the Kennedy Center she says DC “uses marble like cotton wool” 🧐

90% of bluesky posts, to me

sean feucht accidentally left the chatgpt prompts at the end of his post lmao

If you snooze you lose, ya’ll.

One of the saddest things I heard this year was about a man-woman presenter duo on Dutch tv doing a morning show, of which the woman had to report to the studio each week ONE FULL HOUR before the man (6am versus 7)

The apps, having successfully argued that they are in the future contracts business, essentially a type of derivative, are regulated by the CFTC, which has about one-eighth of the staff of the SEC, just they process billions of dollars of bets every week.

Nihilism is on full display on the apps with people placing huge bets over the number of migrants who will be deported this year and the extent to which Gaza will experience famine. Grief and tragedy has become commodified and casino-ified.

great movie

Incidentally, this makes the Netflix push into video podcasts really telling. Because it signals that either 1) they misunderstand the appeal of the video pod or 2) they truly want to become YouTube. bsky.app/profile/did:...

my reaction to pluribus is that carol would absolutely be on bluesky

This piece on Pluribus and Tolkien's old applicability vs. allegory framework by @justinaclin.com is some of the best writing about Pluribus I've read so far
