Imagine being one of the men who escaped Maduro’s Venezuela, sought asylum in the U.S., got instead sent to months of hell in El Salvador, got sent back to the country you’d fled in the first place as if that was some kind of win for you, and now finds out the U.S. says it’s running your country too

As politely as possible, the absolute epidemic of elder millennials to young Gen X performing the rites of early adulthood in film and TV is out of control. I say this watching 47-year old Bryan Greenberg as a guy Emily in Paris meets at Friends-themed bar trivia.

There seems to be a glitch on the Us Weekly website where the word "addresses" triggers a sales link that reads "(🛒Up to 50% off Dresses!)" which is bringing something special to this article about a reality TV star facing their addiction

Rewatching New Girl for generalized comfort and I’m in the Mr. Fancyman episodes and he just said “Jess, I’m 42! I’ve made a lot of money, and I enjoy spending it!” and now I am back where I started.

In Christmas movies, the bad boyfriend is always rich and high powered and not emotional enough, which is just SO DIFFERENT than the bad boyfriends of real life.

We make fun of celebrities and rich people for having giftwrapping rooms but when you’re surreptitiously wrapping gifts in your parents’ guest room on a lumpy bed it’s like, are they onto something?

I know the M.O. for newsletters is regularity but I get the MOST excited when I see a newsletter from someone who hasn't written their newsletter in a long time because it means they had something they HAD to say.

Rob Reiner was a good guy. He made a lot of movies about good guys, in worlds where not everyone was good and you didn’t have to be good. He made movies about people trying. He was angry, as many hopeful people are. He knew the world could be better and he wanted it to be. His death is devastating.

It's because she doesn't know how to be the head of CBS News. Just no clue what a person in this role does. Similar to how Pete Hegseth and Sean Duffy don't know how to be cabinet secretaries.
A hallmark of this movement is people being out of their depth. It says, "expertise is unnecessary."

ah yes, all workers should have the right to hurl racial slurs at black customers
“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
Why the Cinnabon Story Doesn’t Make Me Happy
The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.
