Is F1 a good movie? No. The plot is a paper thin ripoff/mashup of Top Gun, Any Given Sunday. But the racing sequences are awesome and it has Kerry Condon. RIP Luck.

Your Bluesky experience will be immensely improved simply by browsing Will Stancil’s replies and blocking everybody being a freak. This takes out like 90 percent of the shittiest people on the site and makes everything better.

It would be useful to explain why a county wants its own ability to enrich uranium so people can understand enrichment ≠ bomb.

A classic early 1990s Yankees trade. They gave away a generational talent because Steinbrenner hated Dave Winfield. Because the Steinbrenner family sucks.

They had Matt Lauer at home.
Yes. And these were largely the same chodes that gave Megyn Kelly a multimillion dollar deal and multiple shows which were very terrible and it all ended in disaster. Good times!
Reminds me of reading Ronan Farrow’s book about how his Weinstein reporting was being blocked at NBC by higher ups who ended up with their own #MeToo issues

Jeff: “Everyone is clicking on and sharing this Marc Theissen piece. We need more of that!”
Uh it’s not because they’re enjoying it, Jeff. People don’t buy a Kindle just to tell others how much they hate Kindles.

Bezos is using Amazon to guide him with WaPo. Customers are now readers. But determining what to cover in the world is not the same as figuring out what baby formula and toilet paper to stock in warehouses. Pubs should listen to readers but that should not be the only factor in determining coverage.

I’m okay being on an “anti-leftist” list someone put me on because it saves me time from blocking the kind of people who would think that list is accurate. I am not okay with apparently being on an “anti-trans” list because I’m not and I have no idea how I got on it. Not cool.

You don’t have to conspire to destroy and institution you just have to put the dumbest possible people in charge.
They made a series of choices that made readers flee. And not just the stupid opinion page stuff. They slashed local and regional coverage which is the reason people subscribe.

"Is 53 greater or less than 47" quickly becoming the defining political question of our time
Love to see people in the year 2026 spend all day talking about what the Dems can’t do and shouldn’t try
I mean, sure, Congress should, they never should have given the money in the first place and there's about a million things Congress should be doing to assert Art I powers
But this whole piece is written like Dems have a veto supermajority in both chambers

If you’re using AI to do your work you’re dumb and only getting dumber. I can easily judge the value of this product by the fact that only the dumbest people I know tell me that it’s of any use. The people who are using this are stupid and not learning anything.
