Listen to this. Not a penny more for this. Abolish and prosecute anyone who had anything to do with it.

i think this more than anything is what miller wants. vast detention camps with all of the suffering and death that means.

That’s absolutely the intent, and I would encourage people to ignore every bit of that nonsense.
I’ll crawl over broken glass to vote these idiots out of office, and I hope all of you will too.
I worry that if ICE tries to prevent people from voting, we’ll be looking at actual violence.

The CIA just stopped publishing their World Factbook and took every page, including the archived copies of previous versions!
This sucks. It was public domain, so I recovered the 2020 edition (the last one published as a zip file) and shared it to GitHub simonwillison.net/2026/Feb/5/t...

Folds on the Kennedy Center 3 weeks ago: I was sick to my stomach when I quit because I knew they were going to run it into the ground. No one that they were appointing had any experience in arts administration, but that was never the point. The point was to take that, run over it, and move on.

When I do promotional events for my book, John Candy: A Life In Comedy, people often ask me to identify, out of the hundreds of interviews I did for the book, who were the most significant. Without hesitation, I tell them, Catherine O’Hara.
