Under Shania law, DUI checkpoints will be everywhere. Any man of mine better walk the line.

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story. For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards. Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

“Marxism” is a useful word insofar as it’s a cue that the person using it is usually not a serious person, or not engaging in good faith discussion.

Who else is up at 4am conquering their jet lag? (Glad I took today off, will nap some, should be on a normal schedule by tomorrow)

On the bus on the way to Spa! It’s super early and it’s a long bus ride, so I’m jealous that my beloved is able to fall asleep so easily. :)

I am reminded of the Covid times, when I saw a friend of a friend blame the coin shortage on the “liberal banks”. Yes, the famously liberal banks.

However appalled you are by this, it’s not enough. It’s a frank statement that Trump and Trumpists are above the law and need not even plausible excuses to loot your tax dollars. It’s a total failure of our civic institutions.

This was an incredibly enlightening thread, and helps me understand the Met Gala in ways I never had previously, and I am richer for it.

@mathman1024.bsky.social This tray of enchiladas from HEB lists a serving size as “1/2 tray”, and the servings per container is “varied”. Is there anything special about a food tray in that it might contain more or less than two halves? As my go-to math expert I thought you would know.

Beware of any Christian movement that demands the government be an instrument of God's wrath but never a source of God's charity, mercy, or compassion.

This is a wildly irresponsible headline by NBC News (that I discovered via chyron on our local news channel over lunch). Greenland can’t “cost as much as $700 billion”, because it’s not for sale! Could post “Buying a unicorn could cost $700 billion” because both are equally possible!

The irony of this moment was my favorite part of the movie by far.

Lee in Wake Up Dead Man saying “The church doesn’t need some pussy who’s gonna lie down and take it. We need a warrior.” A picture of our Lord and Savior crucified on a cross is behind him.

This Mississippi trip seems rougher this year - loneliness is hitting very hard, plus the twins need a lot of attention. But the kids are having a good Christmas, and I’m powering through. Might even get back to running in the morning if I can swing the time.

While I like Verstappen, I think it’s good for him and the sport if his margin losing the world championship is smaller than what he lost by throwing away points hitting Russell earlier this season. #F1

Just saw an early release of Wake Up Dead Man, the next Knives Out movie. That may genuinely be one of my favorite movies of all time. It won’t be everyone’s, but I think it’s one of mine. I’ll have a lot more to say as I process it, ponder on it, and see it again…but that was truly phenomenal.

I wasn’t present for when the car hit 400k miles, but I am reliably informed that my daughter took this picture, and not the driver. ;) (And she cut off the last digit, so it looks like it’s only 40k miles, but I assure you this Prius has seen more adventures than that!)
