Long-time buddies Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols were out for a pleasant van drive in Oklahoma when, all of a sudden, their lives would change.

Hasbro’s CEO on J.K. Rowling. We just published our new Decoder interview with Chris Cocks, the head of Hasbro. I asked him directly about how he thinks about author J.K. Rowling’s politics and what it’s done to the Harry Potter f...

cannot stress enough that "separate the art from the artist" was meant for private individuals reconciling the art they love with its flawed creators and not meant for the ceo of a company driving a dump truck of money up to a bigot's front porch

You mean to tell me the idea of making vacuum tubes that go for hundreds of miles wasn't possible! Next you'll tell me it was a thinly veiled plan to slow train development in California so they could sell more cars

The nuclear block is good, actually. It’s why Bluesky is my favorite modern social site, much more so than even Twitter at its best.

A member of ACT UP said that during the peak years of the AIDS crisis in the 1980s: β€œWe went to funerals and buried our friends in the morning, protested in the afternoon and then fucked danced and partied all night.”

Because the world is on fire, it’s on us to live out loud. We need to do it all.

The asymmetry of the value placed on human life is so striking. Israel has a goal to recover 40-year-old remains; to do so, it invades a sovereign country, and the lives of 26 Lebanese are an afterthought. Their names not even worth printing in the New York Times.

Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.

When Bluesky was down today I went back to Twitter and was punched in the face by the stench of abandoned aquarium. Milo Yiannopoulos, who I honestly thought was dead, stanning Hillary Clinton. Dem flaks earnestly retweeting Nick Fuentes. It’s time to cordon off anyone left and introduce alligators.

Black people creating a musical genre that came to dominate culture (hiphop) must have needed CIA intervention to surpass rock and roll.

A genre Black people also invented.

According to PEW, teens in households making under $75K are more likely to use chatbots for help with all or most schoolwork. I read a comment on another platform that said this is amazing news because we are "finally going to close the achievement gap." That is not how I would interpret this data.

A screenshot of an article header from The Atlantic's "Ideas" section. The title reads "IN DEFENSE OF EFFEMINATE GAY BOYS" in large, serif capital letters. Below it, a subheader in a smaller font says, "If anyone had suggested that I might really be a girl, I don’t know how I would have responded." The byline at the bottom identifies the author as Ben Appel.

Babe, wake up. The Atlantic is doing the "they're transing the gays" conspiracy theory.
