The lefty information space is *worse*, at least people on the right can be convinced to take their own side in a fight

Canada has a full portion of all of the US's original sins, in addition to overweening little man syndrome, a truly delightful combination.

Put on Bill Callahan radio this week and it brought me a friend from college. Hashtag blessed.

Gonna tell my kids this is John Scalzi

Prestige drama about the Edmund Fitzgerald WHEN

This is from the minute where Neu! joined Kraftwerk in the brief interregnum when Ralf Hütter left the band and Florian Schneider was in charge with his flute. It goes extremely hard.

This country is great, and it's great because of immigration, and don't let anyone convince you otherwise.

This does not outlive him

Martin Luther thinks you are hellbound

"Supper's Ready" standing outside the window staring in

Sidelong Psychedelic Freak Outs, Ranked: 1. Can, "Halleluwah" 2. Kraftwerk, "Autobahn" 3. Pink Floyd, "Echoes"

I don't know how to express how much Pink Floyd releasing the "Live at Pompeii" DVD hit my friend group like an atom bomb

"Post-war British teens obsessed with Black American music" has had an incredibly outsized cultural impact.

"Seamus" is so much better than it should be

I have a 7" of Low covering "Fearless" and it is an incredible rendition.

[Turning to the crowd, adjusting the dial marked "How much do Waters and Gilmour hate each other"]

One of the funniest things in the world is that Roger Waters quit Pink Floyd and completely assumed everything would collapse without him and has spent the last forty years being like, "Wait, hold on"

It's funny to think that the fact that my dad bought Pink Floyd's "Meddle" at some point has had an extremely outsized impact on my personality.

The Cuyahoga River caught fire multiple times. There's a lot of dooming going on, but we need to recognize just how much omnidirectional progress we've pocketed in the last century.

I feel like I'm currently giving off extreme "partner just left for work trip to Canada" vibes

The fact that Republicans no longer feel they need to even gesture at acknowledging the humanity of their opponents is the entire problem.

I've been to Cambodia and it was extremely cool. We went to Ankor Wat and I took a bunch of black and white shots there which turned out really nicely.

"Detective Pikachu" should have four sequels by now and it should have won best picture

Inside you there are two wolves

What's the matter babe you've barely touched your event horizon ribs

I don't use block lists, every block I offer is an artisanal, hand crafted edition of one.

Once again renewing my call for a prestige "Concrete" series.

too many doomers are honestly just licking the ground in the hopes a boot is there

this goes hard

No country that gave the world jazz, baseball, and the Beach Boys can slip forever into the dark.

Fuuuuuuck

Suckin' on a chilli dog

If the president is actually communicating by social media DM…

Trump has been listening to everyone's complaints about Garland, and he agrees

I don't follow Will Stancil, I think his "let me solo her" approach to political discourse is kind of exhausting, but hoo boy are the other parties in the current l'affaire Stancil not doing themselves and favors.

"Is it me, or is my partner an asshole?" I ask the Flattery Machine, looking for advice

Don't think it's great to see the vice president throwing scare quotes around free speech.

This is countering a thing no one is claiming—you don't persuade voters "at scale"—but Kennerly is wrong here. Clinton in 2016 ran an explicitly further left campaign than Biden did in 2020, with a let's say mixed record on outreach to conservatives. "Clinging to their guns and religion," remember?

These guys are on the precipice of creating A Moment that the administration isn't going to be able to walk away from, which is one of the many reasons you don't let guys like this behave like this.

It turns out having part of your head scooped out will make it hurt

I see they're working overtime at the dramatic irony factory.

"I'm in Hell, True Believers!"

So, with like Ohio and Missouri looking to do mid-decade redistricting to try and eke out more house seats, are we at a point with algorithmically-derived cracking and packing where dummymanders don't exist any more, or are they in danger of taking the top rows of the floodwalls away?

The barista at Starbucks wrote "you're an unbelievable dipshit" on my short triple mochaccino and you can trust me because only Starbucks employees are trained to handle Sharpies
