I would like Chotiner to talk to all the journalists who were publicly and vigorously defending Nuzzi when she was finally let go from the magazine.

I was trying to remember back to that time when RFK was dropping out and angling for a Trump position and iirc Trump seemed like he was a no and there was a small breath of relief and then all of a sudden he was a yes. All I am asking is wtf did she get on a recording?
this — considering that Florida is a two-party consent state — might even be a crime. i’m floored

The problem with ICE is not that it's targeting people who aren't criminals. The problem with ICE is that it's an unaccountable secret deportation police. It cannot be reformed under a better president. It can be made less terrible, but the instrument of repression remains for the next tyrant.

It’s kind of wild how much this guy looks like the character Leland from Evil, who is the devil’s earthly henchman.
Hassett: "On one of the Sunday shows, the anchor criticized the fact Walmart said the Thanksgiving dinner is cheaper by about $10. Then he said, 'Oh yeah, but they substituted generic stuff,' as if having a generic something is a crime for ordinary folks! It shows how out of touch these people are."

Ok I would say this actually is a trend because it comes up in my moms groups a lot. Like trying to get older people to understand we don’t want cheap plastic junk and candy television around or that affection on demand isn’t cool is tricky. Saying stuff like “pretty girls smile” also not cool.
Ahh yes, a totally real trend for which we totally have evidence

Dream scenario for abusers.

Bluesky not addictive to teens but definitely a crutch for elder millennials who know too much about the Bajoran war.
Meta, YouTube, TikTok and Snapchat know how addictive their platforms can be to teens.
Those are allegations a group of school districts is making against the social media giants, according to a newly unsealed legal filing that quotes the companies’ own internal documents. https://cnn.it/3Xjq5x5

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.
I see some book piracy discourse, and, to make a positive argument in favor of buying books, your marginal ability to influence what books get published and support the careers of writers you like is massive compared to most other forms of media.

When my sister and I worked at Steak n Shake when the pumpkin pies came in we would sneak back to the walk-in freezer with forks and descend upon a pie like vultures then tell the manager they must have been off one pie on their inventory count.
So my pie take is there are no bad pies, but some pies have to be eaten a certain way:
1. Pecan: Always good
2. Fruit: Must be homemade. Otherwise bad.
3. Pumpkin: Best eaten cold at 7 am standing over a sink before everyone wakes up
1. Pecan: Always good

Apple pie is bad. This is not really debatable. So is key lime pie, while we’re on the topic. Pecan pie is the 🐐 tho.

John & Yoko: One to One is so good and kind of terrifying looking into the mirror world of the 1970s. The running gag of Yoko trying to track down live flies, however, is a nice comedic break.

I love the library. My kid loves the library. We max out all our cards getting books for her every month. I am sometimes overwhelmed by the sheer volume of picture books tho and I just found out LAPL has a form you can fill out and a librarian will select 5 books for your kid and put them on hold. 😎

Oh my god yes this is exactly what I was talking about with regard to the parenting recipe blogs with disgusting AI photos!
NEW: AI “recipe slop” is overrunning search and social. Food creators say Google’s AI Overviews and glossy fake food pics are drowning out real, tested recipes — collapsing traffic and setting home cooks up for disaster, especially this Thanksgiving.
