I get the impression Ryan Lizza isn't so much angry at being cheated upon as being lumped in with retirement-age Boomers because that's apparently her beat.

No one: Absolutely no one: Neal Katyal: What if we took what is by nature a sadistic dark comedy and turned it into a boring light drama?

"He desired. He desired desiring. He desired being desired. He desired desire itself." This could've been verbatim from The Shadow God by Aaron Rayburn: sfreader.com/read_review....

"The tent is big enough for people who smoke crack inside the tent because they don't believe in the basic science of tents." No it isn't. That's not true. Stop saying it.

This is Just to Say, by RFK Jr. I have eaten the bullets that were in the icebox and which you were probably thinking were theoretical Forgive me they were delicious so possible and so cold

When there's an obvious joke about you blowing a dude, it's PR 101 that you try to refute the totally definitely false rumor by posting a shot of you kissing your hot wife like you're French siblings.

If some doucecanoe with an AI copilot was sending me several thousand bucks of fungible goods every time I lost to him online, I'd lose so much the sauce would be goated with me.

I'm sorry, but this is delusional. We have 15-20 states that reliably vote Republican because 60-65% of the people in those states prefer perceived Republican policies. It isn't a waste to invest money there long-term, but it's not cheating. They're democracies and those majorities suck.

I would encourage Dems to learn from the Liz Chaney Redemption Tour. There's no electoral advantage whatsoever to elevating MTG from her current place.

It's a sad state of affairs that this is both more likely to end the Trump Presidency than the long list of other things that should, and that there's a nonzero chance it would lead to a sudden shift in conservative thought towards homosexual activities. "But the Greeks and Romans," etc.

Every time conservatives try to do the inane meme where their women are hotter, someone should post a collage of conservative guys who are aging like a deflated beach ball left in the sun. Seems like every day there's a new one.

What Mrs. Lincoln simply refuses to understand is that Our American Cousin is actually a pretty solid play by 19th c. aesthetics.

"FBI Director Kash Patel's Country-Singing Girlfriend Files Defamation Case with $5 Million Demand Over Claim She's an Israeli Spy" is a cursed headline in at least four different places.

If you learned today that lots of highly educated, well-to-do, overly confident elites write like balls, welcome to their broad orbit. See, some people's time is too valuable for style that isn't outsourced, and for some reason, half the country still thinks it'd be immoral to tax them more.

Common but toxic weirdo belief. Alleviating temporary mild to moderate symptoms with relatively low-risk OTC medication is useful, safe, effective, and an overall outstanding medical advance, you popekilling "liberty for me but not for thee" jackass.

In a deposition-speak, "So that's a yes?" Not only did he do the bad thing, it's so widely known even the press secretary who was like 13 when it was happening knows he did the thing.

It does not diminish the victim part or the abject grossness of all this, but based on how this racket operates, they had to have paid that victim a modest boatload at some point, and Trump is not the only one on the payor side who knows about it.

An exhibit waiting for a plaintiff.

When evaluating whether a market is a potential bubble or not, it's helpful to review the following chart and ask yourself if the political-economic environment has turned the ? into a viable, lawful path.

Well, he's not beating the totally soulless loser rap today, either, I see.

Oh, brother, go find the biggest of offs and fuck it.

A fun ("fun") panel show topic would be debating which Republicans are performatively stupid versus actually stupid. Many are easy: Kennedy, Marshall, Cruz, Vance, DeSantis, etc. fake being stupid, and poorly. Tuberville and Boebert are genuine. But Tillis or Chip Roy or Tim Scott? ¯\_ (ツ)_/¯

Frankly I'm not sure Maine as a political entity worked.

A strategy so bad even Jon Chait gets it.

Primary every Senate Dem who votes for this thing when possible. You can't win at poker much less politics to lead a country folding every time the chips are down.

The NFL sells itself so easily that it's impressive how Fox managed to find one of the few things that resulted in an instant channel change on top of their off-putting Tom Brady campaign.

I'd post the "stop stop he's already dead" gif but it's a fact not in evidence that he was ever alive in the first place.

Astonishing amounts of bas faith and theological ignorance. What would Jesus do? Be like Charlie Brown and have hoes!

This is a perfectly cromulent amount of fun.

A complete game changer in paying your bank interest. For his next trick, Trump will propose ten-year auto loans.

If you ever have impostor syndrome, remember that there are dudes with more cash on hand than a Vegas casino vault who voted for this loser to potentially get a trillion dollar pay package. You're doing just fine.

This raises legal questions the same way that taking a baseball bat to your neighbor's dumb Harley wearing only a pith helmet and boots raises legal questions.

If "divorced" were a country's executive branch:

Reminder that "economic" "advisor" Keven Hassett published a book in the autumn of 1999 arguing that stocks were undervalued and - this is on the cover - ackshually less risky than bonds (!).

This case is about whether public school students in 2025 can call other public school students by pronouns the speaker chooses. I'm on page 65, and they're rambling about the French Revolution and communism. I've never been more convinced of the morals of this situation. What are we doing here?

This is not a real company.

Je suis Le Gars du Sandwich!

This sparkling bullshit sounds like an admission that there's no emergency and never was.

This reads to me similarly as when a loud vegetarian says "oh you care about school shootings? But you eat cheeseburgers, bro" and smugly thinks they've made a real good point.

O governor, my governor.

John Rocker is still working this routine? Good God, man, it's 2025.

Generally, I wish no sadness or suffering upon the world, but specifically, I hope Bill Ackman is somewhere balling his stupid eyes out.

LOL, I'll take Careful What You Wish For, Dunderheads, for $1 million, Alex.

While a wacko, Curtis Sliwa has worked for almost fifty years at stopping crime in New York City, and in this case he helped prevent aggravated sex pestery in the mayoral mansion. Owe him an apology, wasn't familiar with his game, etc.

That should be admissible as the admission of a party opponent that the case is frivolous, or as we say in sandwich law: all bread no circus; an empty bag of chips; no sub-stance.

Conservatives are pulling out all the racist stops about a mayoral race in a solid blue city and mostly blue state because they are scared to absolute death of anyone successfully enacting broadly popular policy reforms that boost the economy and improve everyone's welfare.

I love that no matter how high the percentage of people who agree that you were a cantankerous asshole, you will still get the relative honor of being "polarizing" in your obituary.

Too bad we can't expand the Court for... reasons. It'd be nice to neutralize things like this extra special boy needing a nap.

Of all the things that won't happen, a high six figure mass exodusing from one of the most desired urban areas on the planet won't happen the most, even though it'd probably be a net benefit to the city when they'd be swiftly replaced by the hipper people waiting to get in.

Please tell me someone is going to run a campaign ad that is nothing but this unserious fool saying "I don't know" or "I didn't see it" over and over again.
