If a house is shot up in a driveby & the only thing from the police is, "A spokesperson for state police told (The Independent) they had 'no information' about the incident, while the sheriff's office could not be reached outside business hours," that there is some potent bullshit about this story!

this is one of the worst things to happen in the 21st century, and like... its pulling teeth to get anyone to mention that its happening at all.
The death rate among children under 5 is expected to grow this year for the first time in the 21st century, researchers say. A key factor, they say, is cuts to U.S. and other foreign aid

Imagine you're overseeing the termination of clinical trials, the destruction of people's livelihoods, the dismantling of scientific research in the US, and you're complaining that Twitter didn't give you a blue check 4 years ago.

The hate is real, and, contra the headline, it is not so secret. And the op-eds opposing the Netflix/WB merger have begun. But, as an antitrust lawyer, I think the merger is likely to be pro-competitive and good for consumers. I'll explain why. 1/ www.nytimes.com/2025/12/07/o...

All of the houses in the neighborhood I grew up in are getting sold to big Somali families and I think that’s so cool. I hope they get to ride their bikes around like I did.

It took me so long to figure out why everybody hates John Sloan, because I was used to Reginald Gardiner, the cool guy from "TheManWhoCameToDinner" and "TheGreatDictator." #ChristmasInConnecticut #TCMParty

My theory is that is important to them to sully all things that are good hearted. They only thrive in fetid despair.
Anyone have a theory on the administration's sudden obsession with Franklin the turtle?

But wait, there's more! The administration claims that we're at war, but the names of the groups we're supposedly at war with and the legal rationale for being at war are classified.
It’s important to remember there are two scandals here:
1. The Administration has likely committed war crimes.
2. But the entire operation - which now includes two dozen attacks - is illegal. In our democracy, the President CANNOT wage war without the consent of the people.

Congrats again to Jake Tapper & Alex Thompson on their book sales
They’re clearly plugging this dude into an IV regularly and, if this were Biden, there would be demands for weekly hour long press conferences from his doctors on his health. But that’s not how authoritarianism works so stop asking questions already.

I appreciate Donald Trump, Jr. letting us know just what sort of "Christian values" he espouses. He posted the image on the right yesterday on Instagram. I suspect that most Americans would not let their child go on a playdate at the house of a kid whose father posted something like that.
