Are you now, or have you ever been, a member of the terrorist group known as the federalist society?

The empire is not insurmountable. They rely on posturing but they’re highly disorganized and fragmented. We are going to win.

I would like to thank the mlb app for teaching me the meaning of "oppo taco" roughly a billion times this season, because I am both a diehard baseball fan and also two years old this has been very helpful and not just annoying

Isn't the real move to incentivize aggressive electrification anyway?

Another clear night meant I got to try for Andromeda, and succeeded ✨📷🔭 Today was really dark in numerous ways, but I continue to hold to the truth that awe and wonder are restorative emotions that can help us pull through

The Dawn of Everything pretty convincingly makes the case that the workweek has been steadily expanding for the last ten thousand years and learning that made me SO MAD

maybe next time

I wrote about Ta-Nehisi Coates and Ezra Klein, why swallowing live frogs is a bad idea, and how context and history can release you from bright-kid syndrome, the illusion that you yourself are going to have every answer or fix the world.

ok we are definitely dead and in hell

Politics should not take up this much of your brain every day

I'm wearing some new white pants today and have discovered that I like them but my choices are to wear them with a colorful shirt or look like a professional house painter

THE MEME IS REAL

the jet grind radio games showed me what I wanted to do with my life, be in a sweet rollerblade graffiti gang and evade the Japanese police

this business model should be flatly illegal taking on a bunch of debt to buy a company and then burning the company to the ground to service that debt while paying yourselves huge fees is a purely destructive practice that has never once had a positive outcome ban it completely

Greetings from war-torn Portland, where it's the last farmers' market for heirloom tomatoes, the salsa lady now has sopes, and the mushroom people have lobster & chantrelle

I hope to hear something strong from Governor Kotek soon. I've been underwhelmed with her leadership, especially around transportation funding of late, but we need her to rise to the moment

If you want the Forest Service to be anything other than just a logging company get in those public comments, people

This is mad stuff from Rob Gale, the peak towards which he's been climbing all season

Castellanos as the only attacking player is roooooough

Look at these beautiful books I can't afford! www.ebay.com/itm/15666184...

My friday chicken parm from the best cart in my neighborhood wasn't cut in half today and it is a sandwich with very powerful vibes

One of the sexiest movies ever made, good grief

I’m pretty much constantly angry about how the global media ecosystem supercharged the current wave of fascism and of course I can’t help but think of Al Swearengen talking about the telegraph coming to Deadwood

1/ A longtime Wired editor just wrote a mush-brained essay about how he totally missed the political rot of Silicon Valley (& still doesn't get it). But in the late 1990s, a Wired journalist warned of a toxic ideology bubbling up from tech. Paulina Borsook has largely been erased. Let's change that

The transportation leadership we need! Hard bollard actually make cyclists safe (and feel safe), which leads to more cycling and better transit choices. Flexposts are cheap and don't damage cars, which should not be our priorities when carving space out for cyclists from cars.

The thing about being neurodivergent is that I Like It. What I don’t like is that the world imposes numerous taxes on me for being like this. I don’t view it as a Me problem.

Just saw Yi Yi in the theater again on the occasion of its 25th anniversary and folks that is not a movie that suffers from repeat viewing, hot damn what a film

Disney has backed down, but there's no evidence that Sinclair or Nexstar have learned their lesson. If you haven't already done so, check the links in the thread below for stations in your area. Find the advertisers and let them know you're boycotting them until they remove ads from these stations.

There's a contractor working on some external part of a neighbor's house right now who is smoking clove cigarettes and it's very confusing to have that smell, which I associate with 20 y/o people, coming from a 70-something hippie dude

dudes rock

You love to see it!

Kirk’s ‘memorial’ getting a live coverage on The Guardian is a great example of how the right gets automatically framed as the default political movement to be ‘understood’ while the victims of that same movement never will never get the same amount of coverage

What is it about stadiums that makes a hot dog even better?

fuck disney i'd rather have an amusement park dedicated to arthouse anyway. let me use my skip the line pass to play chess with death, get trapped in the basement of the parasite haunted mansion, experience the unresolvable roller coaster of yearning on the in the mood for love adventure.

If you're about to bike half an hour across town the thing to do is eat an aggressive amount of noodles, really set the machine of your body up for success

I guess it’s good to know that inside the panopticon tower, it’s also hell.

My explanation for why the national Democratic party is so terrible is that it sold its soul via Clintonian triangulation to claw some power back from Reagan in the 90s and, because the same people are largely still in charge, has used that playbook for thirty years.

Just ate an exemplary peach from a bag I bought speculatively at the beer tent at the food cart pod; it tasted like the golden hour light looked tonight

Kasamatsu had real bangers, man

Nothing fundamentally changes except for the velocity of stupidity.

If you’re in Portland and pissed off about the cancellation of Jimmy Kimmel, here’s a good guide as to what you can do. Our local Sinclair station is KATU, and the post includes a list of last night’s advertisers. www.bojack2.com/2025/09/acti...

The most impactful way to complain about Kimmel. Fellow Portlanders: We do have a Sinclair station, and it's katu.com (ABC). (Reposting for alt-text).

I watched this for the first time recently and it's charming but Cusack really is a shithead who gets absolution with no real redemption

I think Get Smart and the Smothers Brothers are almost solely to blame for how funny I find smart stupidity

Some smart publication should reach out to every single person who signed the Harper’s letter and get their comment / explicit no-comment

The fossil fuel industry is behind most of the climate disinformation you see and hear today. Charlie Kirk was no exception.
