I feel like we are so used to living in a time of madness that we can't grasp just how insane the Kennedy Center dispute is. Trump took something that was running just fine and destroyed it because he couldn't put his name next to the murdered president whose memorial it is. That's completely nuts.

This is the GOP’s aversion to regulation & the basic job of governance taken to absurd depths. Let’s assume AI does pose an imminent threat to civilization. He is saying that something that could destroy the human race is not the government’s business & will work itself out one way or another 🤯

the musk family is, uh, something www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...
In a voice-over, Gibney says there are 14 known children of Musk’s but likely many more. Musk has built a compound in Austin for the children and their mothers.

His thinking, according to tech journalist Kara Swisher: “I have superior genes, and I need to procreate.”

Musk’s parents also appear in the documentary. His father Errol, it should be noted, told the Sun in 2022 that “the only thing we are on Earth for is to reproduce.” He was defending having a second child with his stepdaughter. (You read that correctly.) Errol describes his son’s childhood as one rife with bullying and beatdowns.

His mother, Maye, meanwhile describes a chaotic household in which Errol would tell her three times a day how stupid and ugly she was, before occasionally beating her.

Right from the start, the Seahawks-Pats broadcast hits all the notes: pregame 9/11-related flag-humping, online gambling promos, Mike Tirico shamelessly pimping Microsoft Copilot, and scrupulously avoiding the Mike Vrabel-Diana Russini controversy. The NFL is back, baby!

The main thing I have to say to the young generation of Americans is that your
grandparents and great-grandparents committed a kind of accounting fraud when they ran our country a century ago with social security, and at the time it was a reasonable affordance to grant our leaders, who were dealing with an economic depression and a world war, but nonetheless they did commit the fraud, and they ended up buying all sorts of extravagant things using the fraudulent gains, including what became the thing we now understand to be the high-modern technocratic nation-state, and that is glorious and also bad and all that, but the thing is there's still the issue about the accounting fraud, whose debt is coming due and is coming due fast.
It is best to consider this with as minimal residue of sentiment as possible, to really sit with it, to stare it coldly in the face.
Unwinding the great fraud of the high modernists is your job, whether you wish it to be or not.

Trump takes a break from fear-mongering about communism to brag about seizing the means of production: "We had a problem with Intel. And we settled the problem. They gave us 10% of the company. That was worth $12 billion."

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.
To O’Mara, the diet is not just a temporary means of losing weight but a way to eat for good. He has been doing it for 10 years, and credits it with turning his life around. At one point in our conversation he pulled up the Bristol Stool Chart, which ranges from Type 1 (“separate, hard pellets”) to Type 7 (“watery, no solid pieces”). O’Mara is consistently delivering Type 4 (“smooth, soft, like a snake”), with pointed ends, indicative of healthy rectal function, he told me. “When you start eating healthy, you don’t need toilet paper,” he claimed. “Animals in the wild have no residual stool on their anus.” He described a proper bowel movement to me this way: odorless, wipe-free, over in three to seven seconds and “nearly orgasmic.”

“I could have a bowel movement behind a sheet at a dinner party in the corner of the room,” he said, “and nobody would know.”

Have you noticed the tributes to Lindsey Graham don't cite any actual legislative accomplishments that benefited his constituents? It's a lot of "he was a strong voice" & "got along with everyone"- generic stuff you could say about anyone. His actual legacy is fluffing Trump & reckless war-mongering

Writing headlines is hard. You have to compress an article into a phrase or two. And you have to fit an exact and usually inconvenient line space. Two images below: What the NYT is running on line. (h/t @jaywillis.net for calling this one out.) And what would fit exactly the same space, by me.
Two headlines:

I guess Europe called bullshit on Musk’s verification system and it worked
Update on X's blue checkmark
Following the European Commission's Decision of
5 December 2025, we must explain the meaning of our blue checkmark and verification policies:
Premium accounts featuring the blue checkmark are not verified under identity or authenticity criteria (accounts verified based on an ID are labelled as "ID verified").
As you know, on 1 April 2023 we began winding down Twitter's legacy verification program:
Previously, to receive the blue checkmark, accounts had to be authentic, active, and deemed notable by Twitter staff (for more information on the legacy policy, please click here).
Now, following the changes implemented to democratize the platform, the blue checkmark has a different meaning and identifies accounts that have an active subscription to X Premium/X Premium+ (including services such as reply prioritization) and are complete, active, secure and non-deceptive, regardless of perceived notability.
