Since I just made this…
So, in launching a huge bombing campaign on Iran they apparently didn't plan for:
- Who takes over;
- Interceptor shortages from sustained drone retaliation;
- How to defend US bases in the region;
- Threats to ships in the Strait of Hormuz; and
- How to evacuate Americans with airspace closed.
I’m in the US military and I’m about to make a fortune betting against me surviving a drone strike. The other gamblers don’t know how slow I run

WE’RE HIRING 📚🕵️♀️ The Mysterious Bookshop in Tribeca — the world’s oldest mystery-only bookstore (est. 1979) and recently named Best Independent Bookstore of 2025 by USA Today — is looking for a new bookseller to join our team. This position may be part-time or full-time, depending on availability and experience, but one thing is non-negotiable: you must be available to work Saturdays (11:00am–7:00pm). If Saturdays don’t work for you, this won’t be the right fit. We’re a small, hands-on crew. Everyone here does everything — selling books, fulfilling and shipping online orders, stocking shelves, assisting customers in-store and on the phone, helping with events, coordinating with USPS/UPS/FedEx/DHL, taking out trash and recyclables, and pitching in wherever needed. No task is beneath anyone. What we’re looking for: • Deep knowledge of and passion for mystery/thriller fiction • Reliability and punctuality • Initiative — the ability to jump in without being micromanaged • Comfort working in a fast-paced retail environment No prior bookselling experience is required, but serious familiarity with the genre absolutely is. This is an incredible opportunity to work at the heart of the mystery community in New York City — surrounded by signed first editions, rare books, major author events, and readers who care deeply about the genre. Please note: this position does not include health insurance benefits. If you’re dependable, mystery-obsessed, and ready to start ASAP, we’d love to hear from you. Send a resume and cover letter to: ryan@mysteriousbookshop.com In your cover letter, tell us what you read and why you belong at The Mysterious Bookshop. And please share with any serious candidates you know!

A comment on a New York Times article in which someone from beautiful Vermont lavishes praise on AOC for most of a paragraph before ultimately deeming AOC "an excellent vice president for Gavin Newsom."

photograph from the 80's of the wrestler Sting wearing a Gold's Gym shirt and sunglasses, leaning against a shelf in a bookstore and positively cheesing at an open copy of The Far Side Gallery 2, a collection of Far Side Cartoons.
what if i told you, through the power of forensic analysis, we are closer than ever to knowing the exact Far Side cartoon that is making Sting smile in this iconic photo. 🧵 👇

The NYT says Democratic proposals for reforming ICE are “facing blowback.”
But blowback from who? Not the people! Polls show support for most reforms exceeds 60%, with some ideas reaching as high as 94% of the public!
