A depraved and decadent Trump WH dinner for MBS was a stunning low for an American ruling class that's stopped pretending to carry a moral compass It was really a celebration of death - of democracy, of an overheating planet, and ultimately themselves. My new column www.inquirer.com/opinion/ceos...

Meta halted internal research that purportedly showed (young) people who stopped using Facebook became less depressed and anxious, according to an unredacted legal filing released on Friday. www.cnbc.com/2025/11/23/m...

Kavanaugh stop. Smashed the kid’s car windows and arrested him. He told them he was a U.S. citizen. The officer replied “I don’t care.” www.oregonlive.com/portland/202...

Twitter pays people based on engagement (views, retweets, comments, etc). It appears that many MAGA accounts are based abroad and they use AI technology to generate low-effort rage bait. My guess is that this will get worse as AI tech improves. For instance, fake videos of minorities doing crime.

Donald Glover says he suffered stroke during Childish Gambino tour

DOGE was created for data theft and infrastructure dismantling and it wildly succeeded on both counts within the first few weeks of its existence. It will take a generation to rebuild what it destroyed and the breach of data is unprecedented.

X rolled out a new feature overnight showing where accounts are based. This network of “Trump-supporting independent women” that claimed to be “real Americans” are based in Thailand. The photos were stolen from European models & posts pushed pro-Trump lines while targeting Islam and LGBTQ people.

1) good, they should be prosecuted, they are responsible for countless deaths 2) always very funny when these people realize the extent to which their billionaire patrons could not possibly give less of a shit about them

How We Grew Numb to Trump’s Calls for the Slaughter of Anyone He Wants "In a sane and healthy democracy, a president behaving in this way – as he has many times over the past decade – would quite possibly trigger impeachment proceedings," writes @swin24.bsky.social. Read: zeteo.com/p/how-we-gre...

This is not a peace plan. It is a proposal that weakens Ukraine and divides America from Europe, preparing the way for a larger war in the future. In the meantime, it benefits unnamed Russian and American investors, at the expense of everyone else. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2025/1...

My brother accidentally photobombed a photo Jimmi Simpson took with Jeffrey Dean Morgan and Lauren Cohan on the set of Walking Dead: Dead City. (He's on the crew.)

Racial profiling is all they do. Lawless.

They line up perfectly.

Being a tired toddler dad has compelled me to download Balatro on my phone so that I can occasionally play a game "as a treat."

Don Jr. and Eric watching the presser between Zohran Mamdani and their dad:

this is the world's most confusing day for centrist Democrats who just voted to condemn socialism and tried to sink Mamdani's campaign for months

If we have a kid we are absolutely forbidding Roblox. I know I will inevitably cave on a number of other stupid things all their little friends are doing, but this is a hard line in the sand that no amount of screaming will change.

Impeach him yesterday. Yes, you, GOP in Congress. He’s harming your kids too.

What exactly triggers a no-confidence change in leadership vote?

The correct answer to MAGA outrage over the Dem video is this: Are you effing kidding me? Of course it's reasonable to warn that Trump might be giving illegal orders. The evidence is strong that he actually is giving illegal orders! I went through that evidence here: newrepublic.com/article/2035...

Iowa City made its buses free. Traffic cleared. So did the air. That's because fossil fuels are massively polluting. Ridership jumped, people cut back on driving and, over the summer, the city extended the program another year. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/18/c...

WHOA. The FBI was/is spying on a Signal chat for a New York immigration court watch group, claiming they were “anarchist violent extremist actors.” Your reminder that the government is watching and don’t say anything in a big group chat you wouldn’t say on TV. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

America 2025.

Another interesting day of being parents to a three-year-old.

Kelly: "I never expected after serving 25 years in the Navy flying combat missions over Iraq and Kuwait, flying the Space Shuttle, that now I've got to worry about my personal safety and that of my wife, Gabby Giffords, who was already nearly assassinated, because of something the president said."

This will work perfectly well in rural areas like the one I live, where there is... only one hospital within a 50 minute radius!

The commerce secretary Howard Lutnick is helping push data center projects. His family’s companies are profiting from them.

Incredible headline.

Wait hang on this is crazy

who's excited to price shop for emergency medical care?

The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted. If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

"Not since Watergate has a president so intently focused on, and risked his political capital by, keeping a set of documents secret. Being repeatedly confronted with stark evidence he was actually at the side of Epstein is causing a political fissure Trump cannot undo." — @davidrlurie.bsky.social

when i started writing this i was absolutely convinced it was going to be a joke on the level of the silksong chocolate cake debacle but after researching it they've made a believer out of me i'm sorry to say www.ign.com/articles/why...

This is a nuts story. An AI chatbot and image platform left millions of images exposed. They show what people are actually using the AI for: taking random women's yearbook, graduation, and social media photos and making super realistic hardcore porn with them www.404media.co/ai-porn-secr...

Reviewing @necrosoftgames.com's Demonschool after it was delayed by Silksong was REALLY HARD, because I had to spend three months resisting my urge to recommend it to everyone. But now its finally coming out tomorrow and its great and you should play it. checkpointgaming.net/reviews/2025...

you don't have to embarrass our guest by asking if he had someone killed and hacked to pieces

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered. He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here : www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/glo...

Jim Jordan begged someone to not rat out the sexual assault that was happening at Ohio State. He was crying on the phone. Groveling. This man threw out all his dignity to try and cover for horrifying crimes of sexual abuse. Think about that for a moment.

Google Discover is now serving me auto-play ads with the sound turned on by default. Even worse, the ad was still making sound when I got out of Google Discover.

A lot of people didn’t like the Washington Post journalist who was tortured and dismembered with a bone saw for writing critically about the man sitting next to me

Wow.

NEW: Donald Trump’s grip on his party appears to be faltering in ways unseen since the immediate aftermath of the Jan. 6 attack. He may yet reassert himself, but the gathering clouds signal a GOP reckoning with its post-Trump future. The 7 signs: www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
