i can’t stop laughing

Reboots are huge, and the Trump Administration have decided that Americans just can’t get enough of wars of choice in the Middle East. Ian, @ivimey.bsky.social, @mmmegan.bsky.social, and @nileseguin.bsky.social feel like they’ve seen this one before.

Kash Patel Looks Like A Lot Of Things - The Beaverton #kashpatel #fbi #trump YouTube video by The Beaverton

FBI Director Kash Patel used the Bureau jet to fly to Milan to party with the Olympic Men’s Hockey Team, for some reason. Ian, @mmmegan.bsky.social, @nileseguin.bsky.social, and Andrew @ivimey.bsky.social can’t help but be reminded of...

If you are looking for an existential pallet cleanser, here’s some good news overflow from my better stories podcast Total Nileation. open.substack.com/pub/nilesegu....

So last night’s NBA All-Star tournament featured super fun and exciting games until the World was eliminated. Then when it was just the American teams it became pretty much unwatchable. There’s a metaphor somewhere in there right?

Sure, the Right went a a little nuts about last weekend's Super Bowl. But one senator went above and beyond. Ian, Luke Gordon Field, @nileseguin.bsky.social and @mmmegan.bsky.social try not to look away.

Not satisfied with being unpleasant at home, Vice President J.D. Vance is now being unpleasant in Europe. Luke Gordon Field, Ian, @nileseguin.bsky.social and @mmmegan.bsky.social refuse to believe what Peter Thiel's pet VP insisted on bringing to Italy.
