Is Botsein too powerful and connected for a New Yorker take-down?
Where is Ronan Farrow?
Older GOP stalwarts are no less culpable for the bad behavior of their younger counterparts. They may look at what’s happening and proclaim their disapproval, but they participated in the decisions that brought this about. (2/2)
Yup. People, especially younger people, will take advantage of a permission structure to be their worst selves, and the Trumpified GOP is giving them exactly that. (1/2)
There’s not much a president can do to affect oil prices, except START A FUCKING WAR IN THE MIDDLE EAST.
Get better soon, lest they reveal the administrator of DOGE and you’re not there to cover it!
Fukuyama weighs in (brilliant, of course): youtu.be/Sq6MWZVBPgY?...
True, but Anthropic is the corporation that sets them terms for using the tool.
This is the Republican Party now.
Morons are governing America.
Can’t we just call them “senior” and “junior?” What about “2” and “3?”
Schnauzer before and after haircut.
Schnauzer owners can relate to this!
It’s clear from Cassandra’s post that she hasn’t a clue about the diversity of political views among American Protestants.
Meet Colorado’s Jared Polis, the John Fetterman of governors.
Jared Polis, Gov of Colorado, just pardoned Tina Peters (a 2020 election conspiracist who broke the law) at the demand of Trump
I’m shocked and sickened
If it’s not a GI bug, try Babette’s Feast. Another great culinary themed film: Big Night.
Kinda wild that people who purport to read the Bible literally act as if Mt. 24:36 isn’t there: “But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.”
“of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.”
For people who read the Bible literally, Mt. 24:36 is inconvenient as hell.
It’s illegal, and it’s unbelievably stupid.
IF I HEAR ONE MORE WORD OUT OF YOU ABOUT THIS, WE WILL SPRING FORWARD TWO HOURS!
That’s pretty remarkable. In the 1980s and 90s, conservatives involved in the battles over the humanities were taking aim at the notion that knowledge is ineluctably socially constructed. In this light, their position looks like a cynical power move.
The rationale: all wars are mob wars.
Isn’t that, like, a demented version of realism on steroids?
A lot of people do not realize that the Iranian government is set up so that they can withstand a “decapitation strike“ and continue. The persistence of the regime does not depend on the survival of an individual or a small coterie around him. Good article about this in today’s Foreign Policy.
And, how could I forget: 2004!
I suppose that if, during wartime, you heroically endure bone spurs and equally heroically strive to avoid contracting an STD, the one day you get to start a war.
Sorry, I don’t make the rules.
I was literally pulling up the FBI indictments of the Iranian hackers two days ago for a forthcoming article ab this 🫠
Trump dismantled the entire infrastructure that disrupted this op! Kate and Stamos and I were sued by America First Legal — case is entering its 3rd year. These fucking hacks.
And 1968!
“Epic Fury” is what a marketing department for a fourth-rate video-game manufacturer would come up with. It lacks even the pretense of seriousness.
Oh, wow! Very grateful for this!
