Had not seen this until now but wow. A perfect example that @nytimes.com is not a good newspaper on a basic journalism level. Anything labeled "analysis" is always a dumpster fire. This is factually incorrect on a number of levels. Simply incompetent liars.

Sometimes I see a clip of Coppola's work from his hottest of streaks and honestly there are only a few people who can touch him. Absolute maniac.

One thing to keep in mind is that the only path to sanity in an insane world is to support the work of people of good people.

STEPHEN MILLER: you have no idea what you have awakened. we will save the West. we will turn darkness into light. we will rise like a phoenix from the pit of fire and EVERYONE ELSE AT THE DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS GAME TABLE: ROLL THE FUCKING DIE ALREADY

“52% of all autocratization episodes become U-Turns, which increases to 73% when focusing on the last 30 years. The vast majority of U-Turns (90%) lead to restored or even improved levels of democracy” V-Dem data

Grateful that someone at the nyt remains clear-eyed about what this is really all about.

If you have an extra $10 a month to spare, here's a list of worker-owned cooperative news sites you might want to support: • 404 Media • Defector • The Flytrap • Flaming Hydra • The Appeal • Aftermath • Racket • Hell Gate • The 51st • The Colorado Sun • Range Media • Discourse Blog • Pop Heist

The progressive bunker Douthat is describing here is actually Plato's Cave where lefty "thinkers" like Klein are seeing a good faith arguments from the right where none exist and the shadows they are engaging are bereft of their real world implications for vulnerable people.

The Third Reich didn't last 1,000 years. Pinochet was ousted with a referendum. And the US isn't exactly dealing with the smartest, most competent fascists. Those of you insisting that 2025 is forever need to read a book, touch grass, go to therapy, anything other than trying to make others quit.

Incredible scenes

Can I purchase the empty Kimmel air time to read this on television?

Fallon is still going to come in third.

Post a horror movie everyone should see

Should note that the newspaper publishing this appears to believe that @kevinmkruse.bsky.social is too biased to quote in a story but Christoper Rufo is not.

Thinking about the Twilight Zone where an old lady has the most comforting experience of death possible because it comes in the form of Robert Redford.

Things you come across when you're walking through Brooklyn

An excellent question. It is wild to see that the strongest belief that much of the pundit class has is that it is not the actual content of your punditry that matters so long as it is delivered in way that won’t break up a bipartisan Georgetown dinner party.

I don't know, I just feel like the Washington Post is trying a little too hard to be a get in with Trump but maybe that's just me.

Holy shit it is perfect

Producing soulless content so void of humanity or interest that I can't be bothered to listen to it for anything more edifying than a 'spot check' is my passion.

It is a giant disappointment that institutions and organizations that have the power to be something other than pushovers in this environment have decided to get in line to get pushed over.

Trump personally shits down Mike Johnson's throat in the rose garden patio thing. GOP congressman who was there: I didn't see it WH PressSec: the president is focused on the issues NYT: testing the limits of manly power MAGA: Hahaha awesome look at how disgusted and freaked out all the LiBs are!

These guys mostly think of themselves as the only people in the world but not actually of the world. When their bubble gets popped, we get comedy.

Happy birthday Ms. Ruby. 71 years.

Budget shortfalls fall away with this one simple trick, Sweet Merch

When grok sues Tesla for boycotting X we will have AGI

Curious, how do things typically go for a country when a lawless supreme court is dictating the laws?

A very good price (objective) for a very good website (biased). People that subscribe tend to stay subscribed, at a much higher rate than industry norms. I think it's because the writing is so good, but again I am biased, there.

📌Must read! "In Canada, vehicles are used for a mere 380 hours annually out of 8,760 possible hours, a staggering 4% utilisation rate. 😱 Yet we've built entire civilisations around this massive inefficiency, dedicating roughly 350 square feet of land per car at both origin and destination."

I’m already seeing people who position themselves as progressive or liberal “joking” that Trump should occupy these cities instead. Y’all are so disappointing.

People love to say that the media should not be biased either way and journalism is just the facts so the left complaining about coverage is just whiny but this lede is a perfect example of so called straight reporting that is factually wrong on every level and oh just happens to takes Trump's view.

This seems to be a pretty complete picture of all the RT shenanigans but the funniest one, that I can't believe still works, is definitely that every influencer type who goes to a premiere is blown away by whatever they saw.

Did u guys see the Tesla robot video? I think it's dying

During my brief stint in EMT school, we assisted with a little girl who was never vaccinated due to her country of origin, who had passed out in a clinic where we were touring. it was diphtheria. i cannot explain to you the way her breathing sounded, or the way her throat looked.

Interestingly this is exactly what C. Dif looks like under a microscope.

Current NY state law blocks pharmacies from dispensing vaccines (including the COVID vaccine) without a prescription, unless RFJ Jr.'s handpicked vaccine advisory council signs off. But state Sen. @bradhoylmansigal.bsky.social has proposed a bill to fix that: www.nysenate.gov/legislation/...

Tfw when you have helped fuck up as many people as you can and want to go out at the top of your game.

Eating my government mandated scoop of horse paste and washing it down with raw milk, violently shitting everywhere as I cover myself in beef tallow before my shift at the collectivist farm starts. “So good to be free I think. Thank god I don’t have to remember anyone’s pronouns.”

Big win for Sean O'Brien, congrats Teamsters

WE CUT CHILD POVERTY IN HALF WITH THE STROKE OF A PEN

💯 Throw away your soulless Blue Rose metrics and simply speak the truth.

Don’t worry ship’s passengers, the iceberg is just a distraction.

“The drag queens made their defiant march through the Kennedy Center to find their seats near the stage. The right-wing gay men glared and shook their heads.” I MUST BECOME A MENACE TO MY ENEMIES.

Cannot be emphasized enough that anti-housing NIMBYs in places like California and New York are objectively working to support a durable MAGA hold on Congress and the presidency.

This Louisiana prisoner — & 1,000+ others like him — remain in prison despite split jury convictions that SCOTUS has ruled unconstitutional. MUST READ @richardawebster.bsky.social’s latest in his series about Gov. Jeff Landry’s criminal justice rollbacks www.propublica.org/article/loui...

This new publication for "the left" is funded by $4 million from people and groups associated with Peter Thiel, Mercatus, Abundance, and Third Way Tom Scocca and I raged about this and related matters at @flaminghydra.com flaminghydra.com/issue-386/

Have you read the only piece of actual analysis on this subject? dcinboxinsights.substack.com/p/was-it-som...

Almost sure this dude somehow gets paid by how often you have to re read his sentences just to get the gist. You could insult AI drivel by accusing it of being a TCW paragraph.

Keep thinking about how the folks @nytimes.com had seen for weeks that the Adams campaign was doling out cash but had to wait for a real reporter to discover it before they could talk about it.
