Ohhhhh. Kind of changes how I feel about the proposal, tbh. Been used to stabilize foreign country's bone-headed fiscal policy for decades.

My deep fear is that Kavanaugh doesnt even see these stories, trickle amounts of media even from the Fox News Universe. I dont think he does unless it's clerks showing him something

Luke McCaffrey I was not familiar with your game.

This video of Chicagoans intervening to save a man from being abducted off the streets by ICE is making the rounds on Instagram. Community action works. Source: www.instagram.com/reel/DPZL2AL...

This account supports the right of ladies to have at least one huge dim constantly rutting boyfriend in their lifetime

even now the President protects us from the horrors of the Warp from within his Golden Throne

Fried and Cole watching Cam like

In a new revival of Samuel Beckett’s “Waiting for Godot,” the director Jamie Lloyd cleverly works Keanu Reeves and Alex Winter’s shared sweetness and genuine friendship into the show. Read @helenshaw.bsky.social’s review.

ahahaha oh my god holy shit @lauren.rotatingsandwiches.com www.npmjs.com/package/play...

There are dunks abound on these lines - hes also probably just goading, but I think hes actually responding to a real lack of fury from the media he consumes - not just Fox but CNN, the Times, etc

“…and that’s when shit went sideways,” I explain to the custodial staff as they stare around the bathroom in horror.

Alito would never (acknowledge shared sense of duty)

This is actually what Alito, Thomas, Kavanaugh want really.

like, the fact that they felt this spectacle was necessary is itself evidence that they don't have the military support that they want

The Mets and Magic Start of 2024 season through 6/11/2024: 38-37 (.430) The next day, Grimace threw out the first pitch. Their record for the next calender year (including 6/12/2025): 106-66 (.638) 6/13/2025 onward: 38-55 (.403) The power of Grimace lasts 1 year. No more, no less.

Quiz time, does this blog... A) take Schumer to task, B) take Mike Elias to task, C) take Sam Hinkie to task, D) take a swipe at Ezra Klein's milquetoast protestations of being "just a pundit" Or E) all of the above? This isnt a vindictive HR workplace standards exam folks, always pick E

Yo I was just psyched for hockey szn, but Micah has the Caps at 99 pts as a 50% percentile outcome, fuck yes

I sure am looking forward to continuing to not re-engage my subscription!

I think the case for “this was a decisive affirmation of the MAG ideology” is extremely weak & I think the view that we ought to take the election as an expression of where The People stand owes more to the insecurity and lack of confidence that is pervasive among our liberal elites than the facts.

Never read this before, what a recommendation. Thanks Sarah

It turns out just rigorous adherence to what a constituency wants you to "perform" is bad for actually operating a functioning institution. The pols who are here just to say "this is just for show" have a real problem

Building a popular front means being in coalition with [checks notes; squints, checks notes again] ah... the most entrenched, paranoid multigenerational feudal lord in the entire booze business?

The tricky part of the second way is it still presumes money being actually deposited at some point, which isn't true. So you need to help them realize their own bank deposits were created by a loan to their employer, which was then transferred to their bank when they get direct deposit.

it's fascinating how there's a subset of Americans on the left who basically think they cannot reap the whirlwind of world rage against them simply because americans are too fucking stupid to realize their social position

I’d say there were a lot of people in that family taking things as they came

"Lend freely at a penalty rate against good collateral" - color me a pessimist but it doesn't seem like a good use of 20B with questionable returns to lend to Argentina, a country needs multiple hands to count the currency collapses in my lifetime alone.

Excellent piece

Not at all incoherent. When hes attentive its nonsense, when hes only watching tv he hands his shit over to craven monsters to post on his behalf

Omg this poor man at the news desk had to take my faux ignorant bullshit. Pls call again

Bummer, introduced by @lawsononstage.bsky.social. Sad to see the project go

Rooting for the rapture tbh

Defector, along with five other news outlets, is going to court for documents in the Tyreek Hill case. This blog (paywall down) explains why:

These are war crimes and should be talked about as war crimes and we should be talking about how perpetrators will be charged as such.

I was floored but my wife went all "oh yeah, this happens every time Republicans gather in number, you can track it over time"

Hacky sack ass catch from my boy

The Median Voter

If he were serious about this, he would be going "Hell fucking yeah I am shutting down this government. Have you seen them kidnapping people and throwing them in concentration camps? They don't deserve a single cent for their crimes against our republic and should be in prison."

This survey from the Richmond Fed is of community development-servicing FIs. I think it is funny that this is mirroring the consumer sentiment exactly... "my household is great/i feel safe, but im greatly concerned for everywhere else" @conorsen.bsky.social

Immediately suspicious of the sources and their intentions for an Alex Thompson written piece on this topic.

This is why Primary Everyone is the right tactic. Too many credulous voices
