He just admitted he was invited.

Why would Epstein invite someone he barely knew to experience his highly illegal sex trafficking operation?

To be fair if the hole is big enough it’s def a grocery store bagel

Very excited for the next chapter on how daytime soaps made Trump’s kids palatable

I mean sure. It wasn’t “corrupt” for the Trojans to accept that big wooden horse from Greece.

But it was still a terrible idea.

One thing also to consider re Bush domestically is that he lowered the standards for what “presidential” looks like. He was the first gleefully ignorant commander in chief, the first to say “screw science/books/precedent, I trust my gut.”

Without that Trump never would have had a shot.

I’m serious about this. They say they have actual footage of lawmakers body slamming ICE officers. Show that footage or shut up.

Some folks are just *so* so close to saying "we need to let men do whatever they want to women, otherwise they'll hold our whole society hostage," but they keep getting tongue-tied and it comes out as "male loneliness epidemic"

Reloading the NYTimes Pope Page like it's election night even though I haven't been to church in 30 years

Can attest. Went viral for two days. Didn’t get my brain back for six months.

I have been thinking about this, probably once a day, for 40 years

When I was writing about these pronatalist people this week I came across this anecdote from the Guardian about the guy In the CNN clip.

Really need journalists to push back on this bullshit. When they say this, just ask them point blank: "Are you saying that because one Latino man committed a murder, another Latino man deserves a life sentence? Do you think all Latino men interchangeable?"

lithgow should quit the transphobia show if he hates tyranny

There’s no better sound than two people you love making each other laugh.

3 days field reporting in Texas, Mississippi and Louisiana capped off by the last day full of interviews starting at 8 a.m. in 2 states and somehow making it to the airport just in time for a blurry celebration airplane photo. #audioreporting #podcast @larrison.bsky.social

Tim, out there being a friendly troll, the way we like him best

Garrett, thank you!!

Moment of self promotion: my newest series “Under Yazoo Clay” is out this week! It tells the story of Mississippi’s old state asylum, an artist, mental illness and family secrets.

Huge shoutout to Noah Saterstrom @iheartradio.bsky.social @msmuseum.bsky.social and Pod People for all they gave this

WRITING TIP:

There are only three stories:

1. A man goes on a journey.
2. A stranger comes to town.
3. Austin Power is defrozen in the year 1997 to stop Dr. Evil.

Ok Anna’s most recent instagram post is just a series of Enrique in different trucker hats with their three kids. So yes, question answered

Do you think they just cosplay like it's 2002 all the time? I refuse to believe they exist in 2025.

Anna Kournikova and Enrique Iglesias are STILL TOGETHER?!

The final remnant of George W. Bush's first term.

"but what can I do I don't have the skills to undermine a fascist regime" — if you are a bluesky user YES YOU CAN

Oh no someone let the air out of my dog

Wow—what a nice surprise. Thank you so much for taking the time to tell me that

Can someone explain why TikTok is a bigger national security concern than a social media platform run by a South African technofeudal oligarch actively interfering in our elections and sabotaging our national interests here and abroad?

Well at least we’ve still got the Celebrity Center

Florida, land of small government, creating more work for itself just to own one transperson.

The scary old lady:

My 9yo son recently came back from a trip to the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, which he said was “pretty cool, except they’d just inducted this scary old lady and her picture was everywhere.”
