lol. Most international airports have a yoga room now. But I guess that’s too girly for this creatine-fueled nightmare.
Duffy on what he's doing to improve the airport experience for travelers: "Maybe I want a workout area where people might get some blood flowing doing some pull ups or step ups in the airport."

It is really, really hard to get your head around the raw hubris of the majority. They really will be destabilizing the operating structure of the entire U.S. government. Why? Because they believe they have a better idea about how the past century should've been done.
Justice Gorsuch: Is it possible--"just maybe"--that we're setting our sights far too low and we should be blowing up many more structures of modern government?

The actual crusaders who fought under the “Deus Vult” motto he has a tattoo of would call him dishonorable.
Something that just occurred to me is for all Hegseth's machismo prostrating it's like a classically cowardly thing to kill defenseless men in war. Like by millennia-old standards of honor.

My dad abhors any negative comments about immigrants. Asked him recently why he’s so strong on it: ‘Because we’re always happy to take the rich and clever ones. Which means it’s not about disliking immigrants. It’s about disliking the poor and vulnerable. And that’s a bad human instinct.’
This is so disgusting.

the word layoffs doesn't even appear in this article

It's just all analysts chirping away about synergies

media coverage of itself and its endless consolidation doesn't think labor, consumers, or creatives are actually relevant to anything

Anyone here with political aspirations, please take note. We live in an era, policy-wise where there is such a dearth of humanity that if you simply allow basic fundamental baby-brained levels of human decency to guide your policy it’s like 99% certain you’ll be goddamn Superman to the average voter

My wildest, craziest fantasy is that they won’t just be cowering in the darkness again within my lifetime.

I want them to face real consequences. I want the Nazis to hurt. I want every far-right extremist currently posting openly about their bigotry to never again know a moment’s peace.
there are more of us than there are of them and we will scare the nazis back into cover of darkness in my lifetime

The postal service is not a business, measuring it by revenue is the wrong frame for understanding its worth.
🚨SCOOP: Amazon is preparing to sever ties with USPS and expand its shipping network as a true coast-to-coast rival.

It could cost USPS more than *$6 billion* a year in lost revenue, and lead Amazon to dominate yet another facet of the economy.

USPS posted a *$9 billion* loss in 2025.

this is the same mentality that leads to means testing of government services and it has never once made those things function better.
Balancing "no person with a disability should be denied accommodations" with "it's important to discourage non-disabled people from pretending to be disabled to take advantage of these accommodations" is really difficult and I don't have a great answer for what anyone should do about it.

Hegseth is very transparently blaming a Navy admiral for his own decision. Let this be a lesson for every other military officer: The Trump administration will issue unlawful orders, then blame you for following them.

If you follow an illegal order, you have volunteered to be the scapegoat for every person above you in the chain of command.
