Update: just checked and am very disappointed to report it’s just called proper grammar. Gross.

What’s it called in grammar land when you refer to an object (“bombs”) with a “whose”? I don’t like that.

Hegseth Strikes Two Black and Two Female Officers From Promotion List

Hegseth’s chief of staff told the Army Secretary he opposed the promotion of a female general to take control of the military district in Washington because President Trump would not want to stand next to a Black female officer at military events.

Red Pill Masculinity Is the New Snake Oil Brought to You by the Manosphere By Michael Andor Brodeur | These days there’s a guru waiting around every corner for young men to come clicking. They cover fitness, diet and nutrition, dating, politics, philosophy (however rudime…

The broken masculinity is coming from inside the house. @michaelbrodeur.bsky.social will tell you.

(Raise your hands if you saw the Netflix documentary INSIDE THE MANOSPHERE.)

I was hot on the heels of a theory positing looksmaxxers as the equivalent of drag queens for straight guys (the performative spectacle of caricatured gender etc.) but queens have far sharper wits and self-awareness.

Kansas informs trans residents their driver’s licenses become invalid on Thursday Some transgender Kansans said they had received the letters from the Department of Revenue. Others hadn’t by Wednesday evening.

“‘The persecution is the point,’ said Rep. Abi Boatman, a Wichita Democrat and the only transgender member of the Legislature, who received the [Kansas Dept of Revenue] notice on Wednesday.” To underscore that: a Kansas state legislator is among those whose driver’s license will be voided.

Hey can everyone stop continuing to use this vile larva of a man’s stupid website please ?

Any complaint about gay sexual content at the Super Bowl that makes no mention of football pants or high-def slow motion replays is impossible to take seriously.

What a complete disgrace

Getting mad at a language you can’t speak is a pretty fascinating type of insecurity.

I don’t know man, if last night’s halftime show made you feel even the faintest whisper of a negative reaction you might just be a colossal baby.

its genuinely so funny that conservatives feel under attack if they hear someone speaking spanish

3x Trump voter: “He takes bribes blatantly, now he’s being a racist blatantly.”

Nice.

I am not going to repost the vile and racist image that Trump posted last night of President & First Lady Obama because it is beyond disgusting. Trump is a vile racist as is every Republican that continues to support him. I don’t want to hear mumbling from Mike Johnson or stoic silence from Thune.

I've been referring to us as the 300 or So.

Appreciate you saying this! It was a great team. So many dream teams doing a lot of collaborative reporting were thrown out the window yesterday.

I left The Washington Post last year, but wrote my love letter in the middle of my time there, in 2015.

Everything changed, over my 1st decade there. Then everything changed again, in the decade after this was written. But there were 2 constants: the work & the people. www.mrdanzak.com/blog/10years
