I will not give money to any 2028 candidate who does not explicitly promise to knock down the ballroom. It needs to be razed to the ground. Yes, it's not actually that important. But we cannot just let a monument to this administration's corruption stand for decades. It has to go.

After a brief pause for injuries and for the US to make fools of themselves at the World Cup, this account has now returned to its proper status as a Munetaka Murakami fan account.

NPR reporting suggests this take may be wrong. If so, I’ll be thrilled. But I’m still skeptical. One thing that makes me lean toward “no” though is the absolute lack of smoke post-error. Would think if it was just an early post, someone else would have confirmed that today.

The fact that it was a Nina Totenberg story makes it obvious what is happening here: Alito is retiring later in the week. This wasn't a "just in case" story, it's clear she knows and someone published early. The author plus the BS "not retiring" leaks earlier this year make it clear.

If I am reading the majority in BJP correctly, it appears Kavanaugh goes out of his way to never use BJP's correct pronouns (she/her). And giving him the majority to do his "Coach Kavanaugh" routine is as gross as you would expect.

I can't stop thinking about this. Even if someone was stealing diapers (which is disputed), who gives a shit. And to fire at a car with a 1-year-old inside is unconscionable.

I got a text from this campaign today asking for money. It's a race we have no chance to win, and they cannot possibly spend my money by tomorrow. It's a great example of the type of spam political texts that everyone hates.

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.

I really feel like we as a society don't talk enough about the time Alex Morgan got hammered at EPCOT and threatened to call the Orlando SWAT Team. I'm not condoning that behavior; I just feel like it should occupy a larger piece of our national discourse.

On Jim Lovell’s passing, go listen to Season 2 of 13 Minutes to the Moon if you haven’t already. I think it’s the best season of a podcast ever made, and I don’t say that lightly.

I bought a bag. I like the bag, don't like the color. The color I like better is back in stock, so I am exchanging the bag for that color. I need help doing that at the original price I paid. So far, I've gotten three levels of AI responses to my customer service requests. I'm returning the bag.

When you omit "A Black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol," you completely alter what Scully was describing as "marvelous." Scully was NOT just broadly marveling. He was marveling at a very specific, very important thing.

This was Vin Scully's call of Henry Aaron's 715th home run. Tonight Major League Baseball cut off the first sentence, starting it with the "What a marvelous moment" part because they don't want to anger the white supremacists who run our country and of whom Rob Manfred is an ardent supporter.
"A Black man is getting a standing ovation in the Deep South for breaking a record of an all-time baseball idol. What a marvelous moment for baseball. What a marvelous moment for Atlanta and the state of Georgia. What a marvelous moment for the country and the world.”

Brandon Scott has beaten back so many of Baltimore's worst people (Dixon, Vignarajah, the Mosbys, et al) while doing so much good for the city, but because he isn't white and doesn't play in a terrible cover band, no one talks about him for state office. But they should.

I grew up reading Star Wars books. They made me feel alive, immersed in a galaxy of richness that I still treasure to this day. Andor made me feel that way again. It was a masterpiece from start to finish, and every piece of it fits so beautifully into the Star Wars universe.
