You ARE making hundreds of millions of dollars of therapy, Pete. Didn’t you see Toy Story 3?
Do you know what happens when you explain homosexuality to kids? They go, “oh. Ok.”
We really have to stop mollycoddling the worst people.
These asshole twerps with no brains or education from DOGE really did use ChatGPT to find NEH grants to terminate ILLEGALLY - ruining hundreds lives and destroying hundreds of the greatest humanities projects and partnerships of our time. I’m overwhelmed with rage and anger all over again.
These are the 4 things AI can do well:
•Clean up your email inbox (badly)
•Give my shittiest neighbor (Alan) something to talk about at a party
•Tell a 12 yr old to kill himself
•Incinerate a school at 10:16 AM on a Tuesday
You can see why we need to base our economy around it
Hegseth needs to stand trial after this as a war criminal. Between this attack and the girls' school, there's no ambiguity. He is responsible for mass murder and must be held accountable.

Almost there…
A phrase guaranteed to make me laugh is "As I walk through the valley where I harvest my grain"

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.
The Quaid Army is the army everyone should be enlisting in nowadays.
Because it gives big Folie a Deux vibes? (But is hopefully way better.) (I didn't see Folie a Deux.)
One of the all-time great sitcom characters
It's remarkable that the national media is saying the takeaway from Talarico's win over Crockett is "Democrats are too far left" when the two of them are so ideologically similar.
It's almost as though "too far left" means "too Black."
an ad from 1990 that shows Pylon playing an early show at Peabody's Down Under in Cleveland, for $5 advance, $7 day of show. others on the venue ad include Buckwheat Zydeco, the Cro-Mags, Joey DeFrancesco, Steve Morse and Eric Johnson

Eagerly anticipating the Michael Shannon/Jason Narducy et al R.E.M. extravaganza in a few weeks, so I wrote about some of the cool things happening on the tour to date. Found some vintage ads from Cleveland to underscore/hint at the coolness. anniezaleski.substack.com/p/we-are-hop...

I wrote this post hours before the Associated Press announced a new partnership with Kalshi.
