How you gonna do a commercial with Matthew Broderick about taking the day off and not set it to “Oh Yeah”?

I hope this turns out to be a case of Bad Bunny saving some couple the cost of their own wedding.

“We’re giving them too many edges.”
Hoo boy.
Hoo boy.
I turned on the big game in advance of Bad Bunny and the first thing I heard was “it’s amazing how deep inside the hole he can get and still be bouncing around outside,” so this is already a big win on the homoerotic innuendo front.

I would think if you wanted to reach a large audience with your message condemning the pervasiveness of antisemitism, you might want some sort of guarantee it won’t end with a smash cut to a bunch of toilets singing an ‘80s soft rock classic.

“Everything you tell me now, I hear for the first time in my life.”
In 1979, the “New York Times” asked Isaac Bashevis Singer if he planned to watch the Super Bowl.

If anyone is selling you the opportunity to make money, *you* are how *they* make money and the 'secret' they have is convincing people like you to pay them.
There will be a lot of smoke & mirrors to make it look like you have agency, but the product is your gullibility.

It's hilarious that Fox News treats these things as deeply scandalous, in between segments where a bunch of adults are sitting around saying stuff like, well, you know, fourteen-year-olds *are* pretty sexy these days ...

There are some scenes in THE ALABAMA SOLUTION 📽️ which are right on the edge of what a documentary can responsibly show, but I tend to think that if someone can live it, I can at least watch it once. It's very painful and very good movieswetextedabout.com/the-alabama-...

If there's ever been a time to NOT be incrementalist, this is it. The most political capital you're gonna have is right now. And we got Gestapo death squads in MSP and TB spreading through concentration camps in Texas. If you can't find a win there, get out of politics. The Epstein Class, baby

I should ask the Bulwark guy his thoughts on people who don’t think Carville is problematic, because “problematic” would indicate a degree of relevance Carville hasn’t had since you had to know who Billy Bob was supposed to be in Primary Colors.
Saw a Bulwark guy say that anybody who thinks James Carville is a problematic figure can't win Texas and my only reaction is that I straight up don't know who that is

They give Nazis a platform to charge people money to read their grubby little Nazi thoughts in exchange for a piece of the action, that’s how.
We’ve known THAT for years. It’s why I chose to stop asking readers for money, and (partially) why I write less and less for that newsletter these days.

Personally, I think if you want to profit from exploiting footage of people humiliating themselves in front of police, you should have to pay to send a production team out to get that footage yourself, just like the makers of COPS.
Police body cameras were supposed to prevent abuses. Now YouTubers are using the footage to embarrass young women for clicks. The most popular uploads are the most salacious and humiliating: for example, “When Suspects Try to FLIRT With Cops” boasts 7.9 million views.

Lars von Trier, hiding behind the curtain so you only see his shoes, like in the Kingdom revival.
After that, I dunno, Laurie Anderson would probably be a hoot.

It's amazing that 4 congressional Dems voted to make it *illegal for married women to vote*, and the rest of the Dems didn't respond "ok yeah you are not allowed to call yourself a Democrat anymore, we're not going to help fundraise for you, just go fuck yourself"
