Michael Phelps has a longer wingspan, larger lung capacity, and produces less lactic acid, than most other athletes. Sometimes people literally are just “built different.”

Trump Backs Section 702 Reauthorization After Once Calling To 'KILL FISA'
The president is much less concerned about the law's potential for overreach now that he's in charge of the government wielding it.

Great writeup from @joelancaster.com on Trump's about-face against the FISA reforms he campaigned on

Imagine you make action movies, and then JOHN WICK comes out. It must be like a silent film star seeing his first talkie

It's 2006; you can now smoke, vote, and buy a gun. You just changed your MySpace display name to "Chuck Norris doesn't sleep, he waits," and your first Facebook status—"[Your name] is voting for Pedro"—is going over huge.

This will be the high point of the next decade-plus of your life

Can only assume the president will soon be pushing David Ellison to buy A24

This is funny, sure, but I love how we pretend it matters anymore. By now, “Trump lied” is more of a dog-bites-man story than “dog bites man”

Too often we lose the true meaning of our holidays and solemn anniversaries. The Ides of March aren't about committing murder; they're about coming together as a community to commit murder.

I do love the fact that, given it's Hegseth, it's equally plausible that he's announcing that the US military will execute prisoners of war as policy or that he just doesn't know what "no quarter" means

Trump may waive the Jones Act for oil shipments. Let's repeal it instead. The century-old law makes energy more expensive even when there isn't a war raging in the Middle East. It's time to get rid of it.

Trump bragged about lower gas prices. Then he bombed Iran. You can have low gas prices or war in the Middle East, but not both.

I really encourage everyone to spend some time with the DHS Flickr page, which in one year posted thousands and thousands of glamour shot propaganda photos of Kristi Noem and little else. Our tax dollars! www.flickr.com/photos/dhsgov/

I’m just saying, you could make a sequel to The Nice Guys and hide it in the Ringo movie’s craft services budget

It’s not a direct one-to-one comparison but do you ever think about the movies you’ve liked that never got sequels, and then remember that right now they’re astroturfing a fucking 4-film Beatles biopic cinematic universe??
