Fox hosts don’t have Mexican friends. Or friends.

of all the times to not use the Oxford comma

I guess once in a while a person sets out to sleep their way to the top, but gets lost and just sleeps their way to the right

oh ya sign up for this. goodnight!

southern literature is famous for its vivid imagery

every time I see this I fully intend to throw admin party and “throw admin party” ends up on the eternal admin to-do list every time

starting to think the puritans had their reasons for wanting to convince everyone in their community that weird sex stuff leads to an eternity of hellfire it didn’t work any better than what we’re doing now but maybe they had a point

Just need to re-punctuate: "Anti-ICE protests rock, Charlotte!"

My first piece for @theguardian.com on MBS’s visit to the U.S., seven years after Jamal Khashoggi’s murder. Trump’s America is beginning to look like MBS’s Saudi Arabia— which Jamal warned me about. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

An aside about this: the space to state a reason for cancelling was pitifully small, but I managed to fit in "Hanania = white supremacist."

the worst thing about journalists sleeping with sources is that it propagates a false narrative claiming journalists sleep

This is the hardest I have seen any member of Congress work to try and address transphobia in Congress, and her ability to get nearly all Democratic lawmakers to sign onto this letter is something any first would applaud

apropos of nothing in particular, Saudi Arabia has a population of 35 million but only 19 million are citizens, in part because only Muslims can be citizens of Saudi Arabia, so the ~2 million Christians in the country are “foreign workers” forever, even if born there

you know who was a real political reporter a Denver Post writer whose name you don’t know and I don’t even remember despite being fairly sure we were Facebook friends at one point her name was never the story but a friend once saw an elected official HIDE UNDER HIS DESK when she entered the room

journalists should not be people who have spent their whole lives trying different ways to become famous and would have also accepted “enter the actual hunger games” as an option if it made enough people know their name

The U.S.-born pope has spoken out several times against his native country's treatment of migrants in the U.S. n.pr/4i4exY4

If we are not sharp-- if we are not careful and diligent-- we tee up the ball for Fuentes, MTG, Carlson, and all the rest of these grifting Nazi bottomfeeders. They are eyeing us. They are eyeing the rightful passion and anger. They want to channel it into their Nazi project.

I cannot overemphasize that Marjorie Taylor Greene, Carlson, and Fuentes see a 2028 path to victory that involves building an isolationist populist coalition that traffics heavily in antisemitism and exploits existing negative sentiment against Israel. We have to be SHARP on the left right now.

DAILY MEMO: More Than 30 People Taken in At Least 30 Raids During Saturday Through Monday Rains

Jesus to his disciples:

A woman on TikTok did a very simple experiment: With SNAP benefits paused, would churches give a poor mother with an infant who was starving a can of baby formula? Spoiler alert: the Protestants failed. religionunplugged.com/news/kentuck...

Want to say @marisakabas.bsky.social wrote a really good piece that serves as a helpful companion piece to my commentary from earlier. She goes into further depth about the moral rot in elite journalism. www.thehandbasket.co/p/moral-rot-...

Noah's got it right. The piggy comment can be immediately understood by every single person in the world as unacceptable behavior. It's unacceptable behavior for anyone, period, full stop, absolutely obscene behavior for the person holding the highest office of the land. Contemptible.

me ducking my financial advisor’s calls because I don’t want to acknowledge the role of capitalism in determining outcomes of my life

meanwhile in Chattanooga, someone has stolen a driveway

my aunt did exactly this to me as a teen and good on her (I had been told by boys that feminism was the belief that women are always better than men)

I see it is “can’t run the heater AND the air purifier AND the lights without the power flickering” season in the no central heating zone of LA County once again

Ryan Lizza’s current girlfriend has the opportunity to do the funniest thing of all time, but it’s gonna require some really gross sex

hate it when the girl I’m using to make myself feel young turns out to actually mostly be attracted to guys older than me and wait she was attracted to me so do I look—

hear me out… Deontay Wilder vs Jake Paul in an ACTUAL sanctioned match and the winner (or survivor, if Deontay is actually back in fighting shape) gets to host an all-athlete season of The Traitors

This story from @noturtlesoup17.bsky.social, captures how the impunity Jan6ers believe they had LED DIRECTLY to Andrew Paul Johnson sexually abusing young children. theintercept.com/2025/11/17/p...

there is a pig who should shut up on Air Force one, but he isn’t in the press corps

My personal “Don’t give to the Salvation Army” story:

Here’s a pro-tip: If you are new to a topic, and you think you just made an important discovery that’s in the public interest, ask yourself which is more likely: Thousands of professional adults who should have info this already are either incredibly stupid or incredibly corrupt OR You’re wrong

I felt really bad when I learned that this man was coming to speak to us. It felt insulting. The speech was just as expected. Maybe worse than expected. archive.ph/yWHNr

ok wait I’ve got it, I’ll write a memoir telling all the lurid details of my affairs with several prominent politicians but I’ll say they all had humongous dicks so none of them will be willing to out me for making it all up

In these trying times, may I offer you a woodrat ASTOUNDED and TAKING GREAT OFFENSE at being humanely excluded from the foundation of a house?

If you don’t enjoy paying what Uber actually costs now that it isn’t VC subsidized, you cannot possibly imagine how much you won’t enjoy the economy if AI makes it to the stage where companies start charging based on what it actually costs.

Trump will not just be four years of bad management. The culture of these organizations will be fucked for a long time. The pressure to retaliate and clean house will be strong, and no-one wants to work in a war zone.

this is the most attention M___ S____ has gotten since the last time he got attention due to Olivia Nuzzi

This is some very good reporting about the Goyim Defense League (GDL) and how they are targeting kids online for recruitment. GDL hasn't gotten a lot of mainstream coverage like Fuentes and his Groyper buddies have but GDL is worse in basically every way. Thanks for this great reporting, Phil!

You don't often see this at the end of a whistleblower story:

boxing gloves, a dirty hoof pick, hair dye, and a script which cannot be sold, it permanently takes up a slot in your inventory unless you do the side quest to self-produce it

imagine being so horny for wrinkly balls you helped make this happen

I am once again asking why no publication covering the media ever notices that a company capable of producing enormous amounts of AI content is also capable of producing enormous numbers of AI users/listeners/viewers/whatever to get you to write about their slop product

Nuzzi furiously masturbating after finding out that President John Tyler fathered a son at age 63 who himself fathered a son at 75

so sue her for having sympathy towards something pretty that does a lot of damage by going where it isn’t wanted

I can only imagine the signal chats popping off as a handful of guys figure out they’re the only ones in the administration who DIDN’T get Nuzzi Nudes
