You, too, can obtain limited edition trinkets if you find me at Mr. Smalls again tomorrow night to see our beloved @themountaingoats.bsky.social. Always happy to have the guys back in Pittsburgh! 💜

This is a lyric from the song 'Days,' from the new Mountain Goats album of the same title.

SCOOP: So remember Dialog, Peter Thiel's private society that doesn't have a public website and no public list of members? I (along with a number of other journalists) have just been tipped off that embedded in the code of their closed off website there IS what seems to be a list of some members.

These were more popular than I expected and help spread the word about the Archive - almost certainly doing another run! 💜 So so good to see so many Goats friends in Columbus. August can't come soon enough!

Eyewitness video from the scene of today's ICE shooting in California appears to (you guessed it) contradict officials' claims that the man "weaponized" his vehicle. The car is reversing and the agents appear to be well clear of it.

A small black car is reversing while an agent stands about six feet away from the driver's side door with his pistol raised.

So we talked to the author of the 25th amendment. (89 years young!) And we went through the text. It solved a real problem, but it wasn't the problem we have right now. I'd like a deus ex machina for what we're going through too, but this ain't it. From Moe Tkacik and I: prospect.org/2026/04/07/w...

Donald Trump’s abuse of power and threats of a war crime and the destruction of the Iranian people merit the President’s removal from office. Congress should return to Washington at once to put a stop to this and bring our troops home.

During the anti-ICE school walkouts in January, a group of students in Chandler were targeted by an armed agitator. Turns out it was Phoenix PD Sergeant Dusten Mullen. He admitted his plan was to try to get purposely assaulted so the teenager protesters would all get arrested (it didn’t work).
