Not knowing what the worst people in the world were thinking every fucking day

Aaaah, happy birthday, Tanya!

We need a labeler here that lets everyone know.

ACTUALLY WENT TO THE 2026 WHITE HOUSE CORRESPONDENTS DINNER

OMAR COMIN’!

Kean will miss votes once again this week - New Jersey Globe Rep. Tom Kean Jr. (R-Westfield) will miss votes once again this week due to a medical issue, his office has informed the New Jersey Globe, but the nature

so when is the national press going to notice that my congressman, frontline House Republican Tom Kean Jr., has missed more than a month of House votes due to an unspecified medical issue newjerseyglobe.com/congress/kea...

Happiest of birthdays!

It's my 25th birthday! 🥳🎉

Despite being a queer, neurodivergent Gen Z in such a rough time, I'm still alive 💜

My only ask is that you support my freelance editing business so I can build a life & career for myself.

Hire me as your editor, repost, share my website, read my blogs! Anything helps!

An orange white and black calico cat named Rainbow greeting CC, who is in that late kitten stage, and is a tabby calico, no orange. They sit on a conference table, and Rainbow looks like she's about to either groom or bite CC.

The first cat to be cloned was a calico female named Rainbow (left).

The clone, produced at Texas A&M University in 2001 was named "CC" for Carbon Copy or CopyCat (right).

Notice something odd about the "identical copy"?
Not very identical is she?
But they *are confirmed* genetically identical.

the NJ machine is still dominant but you can't really overstate how bad of a time they've had since Bob Menendez went down. Andy Kim, a cluster of independent Democratic state legislators, the progressive/DSA sweep in JC, and now an independent Democratic congresswoman

My dental hygienist and I were talking today about the sharp rise she's (anecdotally) seen in grinding/clenching over the last five or so years. Maybe that would be a telling metric to track, how many of us are cribbing like horses on a fencepost, alongside the economic numbers.

Yeah, I'm real tired of this narrative that disabled people "enjoyed" lockdown. Lockdown sucked. It just sucked less than dying of COVID, a thing the abled world doesn't care about anymore.

I'm also tired of abled people mourning their time in lockdown more than they mourn the 1.2 million dead.

we are informing the press that the prime minister will shortly have a sincere & unscripted display of human emotion

I firmly believe that rebuilding a high-trust society will require gratuitous humiliation of prominent wrongdoers such as Alex Jones

With this new InfoWars, we will democratize psychological torture, welcoming brutal and sadistic ideas from everyone, even the very stupidest among us. It will be like the Manhattan Project, only instead of a bomb, we will be building a website. The InfoWars of tomorrow will converge into a swirling vortex of content about content, talent acquiring talent, rings of concentric media mergers processing all human artistry into one endlessly digestible slurry. This will be a dank, sunless place, one where panic and capital feed on each other like twins in the womb of a hulking, unknowable monster—a monster known by many names, but which I like to call modern-day America.

What a beautiful piece of writing from my boss, @brycetetraeder.bsky.social.

I'd like to take on more projects this summer and fall. If you need an #editor or #indexer, I'm happy to help! And if my schedule fills up or I'm not the right person, I have a broad network of editors and indexers that I will happily refer you to.

a cavs tweet that says BE EARLY. BE LOUD. BE THE **C**** DIFF and the slogan in a graphic

The slogan “Be the C Diff” definitely didn’t land the way the Cavs thought it would lol

The Infowars news is funny, yes. But more importantly, it is an outright rebuke of Alex Jones' evil.

It's testament to the strength and resilience of the Sandy Hook families who survived this bullshit for more than a decade as well as the Onion, which didn't give up on this for the last 18 months.

sauron's security infamously cannot account for three tiny guys, one of whom is literally carrying his most prized possession and who is able to do so fully into the heart of his realm where it is destroyed

We were constantly told that students objecting to bigots on campus was the greatest threat to free speech and now those same people have instituted a ideological minder program on college campuses that would make the Soviets blush.

"you don't hate mondays, you hate capitalism"

i can hate a lot of things actually. there is not a limit for me.

Ofc, as I've said for...almost 18 years now... StoryCorps was also the most economically exploitaive place I've worked. White liberal toxic nonpfofit. Based on Studs Turkel's WORKING but v anti worker and anti union. Paid us PT in NYC (to avoid health insurnace) & FT on the road (to avoid overtime)

Whooole thread:

It's notable that Sen. Ossoff is pressing this attack in a tight re-election fight in a purple state. The rest of the party needs to pay attention.

I do not need my pasta to be a spy!

VERY COOL PERSON: It's four-twenty, you know what that means?

ME: Hell yeah! [starts shoving blackbirds into a pie]

The New Deal brought power to the American South, gave my grandfather a job with the CCC (which is how he met my grandmother), and established the TVA where my mom worked until she retired, but please, do tell me how terrible FDR was.

back when cardi b and nicki minaj were beefing over motorsport, one of the conduits for that beef was the 2018 new york gubernatorial primary. cardi b endorsed the full working families slate of cynthia nixon for gov, jumaane williams for lg, and zephyr teachout for ag. nicki endorsed cuomo

I'll simply say again that for Shlaes to resurface in The Economist at this moment is an indicator of an ambient concern that Rooseveltian policies and politics are increasingly likely. The thing about the New Deal is, it was *immensely popular.* That's terrifying to certain people
