men if you get in shape and stay that way for enough years they will up and make you the golden bachelor

Imagine it's 2002 and you're sitting around watching the Man Show and a time traveler appears in the room and tells you about the past 48 hours

They don’t want a civil war they want clout

In a sane world, Fox host Brian Kilmeade would be fired and shunned for his depraved comments that homeless people should be euthanized. That’s sick (and deeply ignorant), but sicker still is that it’s tolerated.

"Just kill them" is literally the most disgusting thing I've ever heard from a tv news host

good funny article by a good funny writer www.nytimes.com/2025/09/13/o...

Heyyy The Barre Incidents (out 10/1 with @malarkeybooks.bsky.social) got mentioned here! Thought that was pretty cool! Thanks to @calebbethea.bsky.social for pointing this out whose book I have and can’t wait to read is *also* on this list. And thanks @tobiascarroll.bsky.social for the mention!!

Charlie Kirk treated gratitude like it’s a hate crime.

my cheap sushi place hooked me up with free sake and suddenly I am living in the best of all possible worlds

We don't yet have any idea what the ideology of the Kirk shooter was. But we do know that the Denver school shooter was a far-right white supremacist. www.denverpost.com/2025/09/11/e...

it's upsetting to watch the U.S. observe the anniversary of 9/11—the event that set the nation on its current trajectory toward right-wing authoritarianism—by holding a day of mourning for one of its most prominent neo-nazis

People betting this current system is going to win and last forever are betting a lot on a system that is only held together by a figure who is rapidly distengrating into greasy Big Mac wrappers and ticket stubs to Broadway shows from 1987.

No better time to post Hunter S. Thompson on 9/12/2001. www.espn.com/espn/page2/s...

Hey! There are some delicious books on this list, including one of mine!

Every time there’s litfic vs genre discourse I remember that writing was invented by Sumerians to track beer inventory and I head to the fridge.

Who needs a book rec to head into the weekend? 🙋‍♀️ Assistant Fiction Editor @mollyandrearyan.bsky.social recommends BOXCUTTERS by John Chrostek. "There’s a story in here about an artist who lives in a glass house and the ending will stay in my brain forever!"

I see we've reached the president-using-the-military-as-his-personal-death-squad level of authoritarianism www.nytimes.com/2025/09/04/u...

Colorado U.S. Sen. Michael Bennet tangled with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. over vaccines and recent uncertainty over federal guidance for parents — at one point screaming at each other — during a Senate committee hearing Thursday.

If police and prisons stopped crime, the United States, which has the largest, most militarized, and most expensive police force and prison system in the history of the world (seriously, our police forces are larger than most militaries), would have no crime. Defund the police.
