The NYT liveblog on the autism press conference is a fascinating read -- largely because it's written by health reporters and not political reporters. Look at how direct and appropriately shocked these posts are! www.nytimes.com/live/2025/09...

I took Tylenol as needed throughout my pregnancy. I am a doctor. I order Tylenol for pregnant women regularly. Tylenol is safe in pregnancy. RFK Jr is ignoring a huge recent well-done study because he doesn't like the answer it gives. There is no causality between Tylenol and autism.

🚨 HUGE ANNOUNCEMENT 🚨 For the next month, we're doing an experiment: live-streaming as a core campaign strategy. Every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday, I'll be streaming with guests, games, and (of course) my cat, Heater. And if this works, we'll keep doing it. Join us tomorrow, 7 PM CT.

SCOOP — Part of the reason Disney/ABC may have rushed to sort things out with Kimmel is because tomorrow they have a planned price increase for Disney+ streaming, a Disney source tells me. With subscriptions hemorrhaging since last week, they couldn’t risk losing more users with this announcement.

THIS IS NOT A POPULAR ADMINISTRATION, IGNORE THE RADICALIZED IDIOTS ONLINE PROTEST, RESIST, ORGANIZE

I cannot emphasize this enough: The regime has overextended itself. It is vulnerable to protest and dissent. They have not consolidated power and we are entirely capable of keeping them from doing so. Doomers are not realists.

I feel stupid announcing this, but I think it has more of an effect if I do: I cancelled Disney, Hulu, and ESPN+. And I plan to shoplift Andor season 2 when it comes to Blu-ray.

!!! *DISNEY SAYS JIMMY KIMMEL LIVE SHOW TO RETURN ON TUESDAY

Sparklers at a memorial service the right is so tacky help

WHY ARE YOU JUMPING ROPE IN FRONT OF THE DUMBBELLS OMFG

Get in losers, we’re grieving

Harrison Butker, the back-to-the-kitchen, women! Chiefs kicker developing a version of the yips where he keeps missing chipshot kicks far to the right, is one of the funnier developments of this year. Six mandatory workplace DEI workshops will fix this.

I saw a screenshot of someone sharing a Ghibli AI video edit of the day Kirk was murdered and they just wrote “chills.” If that gives you chills I genuinely think you shouldn’t be allowed to operate a motor vehicle

Two soccer games in one day how sore do you think we’ll be tomorrow chat

Yeah man we should really fight back by staying on X

please subscribe to my mailing list because they're definitely going to kill their platform lol buttondown.com/merrittk

Media execs have fallen prey to a propaganda and harassment campaign that has completely divorced them from what people actually want right now. Both their insular information environments (group chats, podcasts) and ambient noise (Twitter reactionaries) have put them in a very stupid bubble.

Nintendo is not, and never have been, your friend.

Super insane that a rabid group of middle aged men are rallying media illiterate young men to get rabidly angry over video games like… there are people dying sort out your priorities

They named it TPUSA lmao

Parasocial obsessive alert

Thank you to @elamin.bsky.social for once again inviting me onto Commotion on CBC. We chatted Kimmel's cancellation, free speech under the Trump admin, and more. I wanted to end on a reminder: this is not a popular president. Trumpism is lashing out in its death throes. Don't stop pushing back.

Me: Invited on CBC to discuss free speech and Trumpism, flying all over the world for freelance gigs, hot bf who licks my toes My haters: Hours-long streams where they struggle to read two-syllable words, paying for Twitter and cuck-tagging Musk for attention, no/smelly partner

Right-wingers are calling for my arrest. You know why? Because they know I’m the only candidate in my race who will actually stand up to ICE and Trump. And they’re right.

Tell you what, it is a pretty beautiful experience to live in a house with someone who is roughly one million times braver than you.

I just found out that Kash Patel is from Long Island, which explains why he is such a cantankerous loser

I’m on Commotion with @elamin.bsky.social tomorrow morning to chat Kimmel, Kirk, and more!

Some men on the internet have nothing but halitosis and a piercing sexual obsession with me that has driven them to psychosis like that’s just a fact

I can tell this site needs more sports knowers because everyone's been yelling about canceling Disney+ and Hulu all day and I literally haven't seen anyone yelling about canceling the new ESPN app, which was just rolled out and the success of which is existential for ESPN.

REMEMBER: ABC owner Nexstar is trying to buy another media org and can't under current FCC regulations. Why do you think they're kowtowing to Trump now?

Genuinely been so nice bartending again. Eight straight hours of no phone, just chatting with people and slinging drinks. Extra cash in the pocket, too. Really nice way to supplement freelance work!

This is a great resource for understanding the physiology of female athletics, including training with your cycle: www.drstacysims.com/roar

I stopped losing weight despite tons of steps and cardio, so we have to adjust! The solution? Up my strength training—more weightlifting at a higher weight. Force the body to use muscle tissue and burn fat stores to fuel it. Working out is cool! Always here for advice

I was antifa once (kicked over a trump sign in 2016)

The “Debate Me Bro” Grift: How Trolls Weaponized The Marketplace Of Ideas Among the attempts to create hagiographic eulogies of Charlie Kirk, I’ve seen more than a few people suggest that Kirk should be respected for being willing to talk to “those who disagree with him” as a sign that he was…

free speech but only if it doesnt huwt my feewies 🥺👉🏻👈🏻

congrats to joe brandon and all the purported defenders of democracy who normalized cracking heads on student protestors in order to cover for israeli genocide. you really greased the skids for ol donnie trump to formally submarine the first amendment

If you’re rich and not a coward, this is what you’d refer to as a “market opportunity” to dominate a media ecosystem that’s about to be covered in grotesque government slop. To be a pop of color in a sea of beige will be easier than ever. People will flock to it. You gotta be a little brave, though.
