The directive from Bari Weiss to make the protesters killed by ICE look “more violent” came after Scott Pelley voluntarily had already gone to great pains to make them look violent in the first place:

"the bill would reduce monthly fruit and vegetable benefits from $52 to $13 for breastfeeding mothers and from $26 to $10 for young children."

Trump really is a perpetual exposure of the reality of America and the utter lie of its claim upon exceptionalism. The idea that this man was even permitted to survive, much less thrive and reach the presidency, is an undeniable tell. No one should’ve ever had to endure this man for even a moment.

FFS! Keep your cat indoors. Your cat will live a longer and healthier life and will not murder thousands of songbirds, nor run the risk of getting hit by a car.

Living through this time feels like the human version of dog years

Hahaha this is what happens when you allow Republicans to latch on to sports. To be clear: The NBA and Dolan are doing everything possible to make this a place so Donald Trump can watch the game. Like his own personal sitting room. Fuck everyone else. The fans, the people of NYC. Everyone.

Finasteride is shown to cause cognitive dysfunction- counteracting dementia medication.

genAI is poisoning our water and planet you should hate it all indiscriminately even if it "never touches" the final product

Trump is many things. A would be autocrat. A racist. A misogynist. A crook. But he never lets us forget what New Yorkers have know from the get go. First and foremost, he’s an asshole.

He totally did it on purpose and that's funny

The thing about misogyny isn’t just that it’s a moral failure that so many people are willing to overlook the violence and indignity created by *this* bigotry in pursuit of narcissistic gratification. It’s also that doing so makes them actively stupid.

OOOOOF I mean, I'm not surprised by this, we all knew this is what they have been doing the whole time because we have eyes... but imagine saying this shit outloud

it’s real legacy media brain to think this makes you look good

this really stuck out to me, too.

Pelley and 60 minutes really were the gold standard for Serious Journalism and that they already felt the need to “balance” a story about the murder of innocent civilians by federal goons by implying they deserved it is an indictment of the entire industry

Demanding that artists hold down several jobs so that we can make YOU art for free is a deeply capitalist stance and if you cannot see that, I cannot help you.

One of my husband’s favorite sayings is, “I’ll believe corporations are people when they finally execute one.”

BLOGGER WHO HAS NEVER HELD A REAL JOB: you bitches sound just like human reources

Gonna be bold here and say that the proper response to seeing a person speak in hostile and condescending tones to a journalist who’s a woman is to criticize the source and not the journalist’s approach.

platner complains his past is 'being described'

Scott Pelley says Bari Weiss told him to lie about the killing Renee Good. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/06/07/m...

Guys I was not kidding about them believing they are the Arbiter of Judaism

fuck the @nypost.com

This is a devastating interview. Scott Pelley tells the NYT that Bari Weiss directly put a “thumb on the scale” for Trump over the killing of Renee Good. Here’s his explanation of exactly what happened.

Trump admits the government is still fighting for the slush fund.

yeah that's exactly what this is, he can't mask anywhere near as well as he used to and this is him on television! I can't imagine how bad it is behind the scenes

this is one of the clearest ways he's aging - he used to snap about stuff, sure, but it was more calculated and under control he's really losing the ability to self-regulate and getting angrier and more erratic

The misogyny…

That "think piece" going around about Platner assumes he's not a fraud. This is the insanity I can't comprehend. He's never ever held office. Never. Not for one minute. He's being propped up by Obama-administration types as a progressive. How is that not the biggest flashing warning sign ever

Will Stancil gonna tell the McDonald's CEO they don't understand how well everyone is doing and show them a chart. And in this case the hed absolutely tells you what's in the box.

Also fun: James Dolan has a history of using his surveillance tech to go after specific people he doesn't like. At his venues. This story here is insane. And I promise you Trump knows about this and will ask his buddy James to help him out here if he gets too mad

Nithya has plenty of ammo against Bass for the general, and people in LA are looking for a change. Nithya going from basically dead after that awful debate to nipping at Karen Ass's heels in the primary is one of the more impressive swings I've seen in a minute

One of the hardest things about being autistic is those moments, short or long, when you feel like you're going to end up alone because you just can't be normal enough for everybody else arround you and they'll eventually get tired of you.

Love the Knicks, but a reminder of how the Garden’s ownership approaches security.

Birds aside, I am actually moderately sympathetic to people trying remote travel and finding it’s too miserable for them. I’ve camped in the bush under primitive conditions! Many things about it are uncomfortable and suck! I went because birding is an obsession, not to relax.

👀

everyone entering the arena will already have spent two hours being steaming mad at trump, can’t see any possible way this could backfire on him

This World Cup is just an excuse for the most pathetic little tyrants on the planet to harass racialized people who have higher status.

Whomever came up with the idea of "oh your item is shipped as soon as we print a label, doesn't matter that it's under the mail cart and has been for a week tee hee we shipped it" deserves to find their clothing filled with stoats. So many stoats.

I fucking notice it. LOTS OF PEOPLE NOTICE IT. WOMEN PEOPLE

It also included an upward revision of projected turnout in LA of 77k. California is on track for the highest turnout in decades, crushing the previous record of 37% in 2018, when Dems netted 40 seats in the House.

Spencer Pratt said he'd leave Los Angeles if he lost. He should start packing his bags.

🚫🧊 Denver City Council is preparing to pass an ordinance intended to boot air carriers that operate ICE flights from Denver International Airport.

"There is value in tradition until it becomes a chain wrapped around the neck of a child." -- N. K. Jemisin, from her SFWA Grandmaster speech.

NEW: The American Postal Workers Union is “deeply alarmed” about the new USPS rule carrying out Trump's attack on mail-in voting. The union says it “rejects the premise” that the USPS needs to comply with Trump’s orders.

When you run for LA mayor but you’ve never voted for LA mayor before.

Two videos I’m waiting to see: Trump’s name coming off the Kennedy Center, and Trump getting booed into outer space tomorrow night at the Knicks game.

if you have not seen this before I can assure you that you have no idea what is about to happen.
