Listened to the final WTF episode with Obama. I remember listening to the first time Marc interviewed him in 2015 (on an actual iPod). This is a trite observation, but it’s crazy how different the country is since that first interview.

I liked it but was expecting to be bowled over with what I’d heard about it before reading, and it wasn’t that. I don’t think I connected with the characters enough

But Apple TV is the device and tv+ was the service

Now it is all one thing?

the actual story here, which the media never talks about, is that police in this country have become a discrete right-wing political operation. the story isn't about cops leaving (they're lying about that), it's about the police trying to exert influence over elections.

Lmao is this supposed to be a bad thing?

A tweet from Bari Weiss that says “"It's shaken me to my core," a lieutenant said of Mamdani's unexpected victory in June. "The absolute dread I feel is palpable.
"
Today in @TheFP our @Olivia_Reingold talks to the cops who say they will walk if Zohran Mamdani is elected in November:”

How is opalite rascist?

The only thought I had when i heard it was that it sounded like abba but a little country and and that it maybe referenced the romantasy book

it's short in the movie, but i love the part in the book where it's the hobbits and Aragorn walking toward Rivendell. so much great imagery in the writing in that part

The more they push these raids around the country, the more it becomes a local issue for more people. Once it goes from the abstraction of “illegals” to “people from my kid’s school” I think people that have their heads in the sand will hopefully wake up

Sorry I just can’t with the black crew socks. But I’m among the oldest millennials and firmly believe in ankle/no show socks with shorts

What asics are those? Novablast? Gel cumulus? Superblast?

There's no "regular politics" anymore because you can no longer maintain the idea that we all agree on common goals but we only differ about the means of getting there or whatever. The guys in charge now are plainly amoral, sadistic nihilists. They delight in it! You can't civilly disagree with that

Hi Sally. When Weiss published a supposed expose on the death of George Floyd, a veteran criminal justice reporter showed in deep detail that the piece was not just wrong but filled with falsehoods and misrepresentations. Weiss did not retract the piece. What do you think of that?

This is really smart. Amazed at the hysteria over the ascendance of a woman entrepreneur who clearly knows how to cover and sell news and who's not afraid to take on a mob. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Don’t Bet Against Bari Weiss

The new editor in chief of CBS News triumphs over her critics.

i think it’s noteworthy that a lot of centrist pundits have decided to just take it as a given that jd vance lies constantly and to treat this as almost part of his intellectual program so that only gauche rubes would bother to mention or care about it.

I’m still on Facebook for local stuff and the occasional post for extended family/friends and the suggested posts that show up there have so much AI nonsense

make sauce ahead of time but boil the pasta fresh and that makes a difference and it’s not too much work
