My 70+ year old white mother, who hasn’t listened to popular music in decades, and was only vaguely aware of Bad Bunny, is absolutely obsessed now and is reading every breakdown of the show she can find so she can better appreciate all the details
My 70 year old dad, whose favorite band is The Righteous Brothers, just informed me that he enjoyed the Bad Bunny show bc even though he didn’t understand the words, “it seemed like everyone on stage was having a good time!” So there ya go lol.

I'm fairly certain I could spend the next week saying bad things about Pam Bondi and not once mention her identity
you can’t find a different attack surface on Pam Bondi than her gender? ….really?
People defending this post are taking way too much pleasure in calling a woman a “bitch” and that’s why I don’t like it.

Loving the Canadian ice dance routine, the starry night themed dress and "Vincent" really pull it together

This. I still order stuff from Amazon when I have to. But I use them far less now. Don't let perfect be the enemy of good.
Obviously do what works best for you but fwiw: I decided to cancel Amazon Prime a year ago and find stuff elsewhere whenever I could, and… it took a little bit to get used to but it’s surprisingly easy to build new patterns of online shopping.

Sidenote, still looking for members for my FOB cover band, “Our Lawyer Made Us Change the Name of This Band so We Wouldn’t Get Sued”
I mean throw a dart at a Fall Out Boy album, but I’ll go with

“I've Got a Dark Alley and a Bad Idea That Says You Should Shut Your Mouth”
Deleted a post about “what’s your least favorite song” because the vibes are bad enough already.

Instead: what’s your favorite song that has a long title, say at least 6 words long?

Mine: “Elderly Woman Behind the Counter in a Small Town” (Pearl Jam)

I've been on a fixed upgrade schedule for all of my Apple devices since 2000.

Since Cook's cowardly capitulation to Trump, however, I've not bought anything from Apple. Not sure if I can keep it up forever because my alternatives aren't any better.

But Apple was supposed to be different.

Tim Cook is an idiot thinking that sucking up to Trump is better for Apple in the longterm. My entire family uses Apple products because of me, but why would I recommend them now? He's doing lasting, permanent damage to their reputation.
I think Tim Cook over the last year has done more to damage my perception of Apple than anything else. I still think they make the best devices on the planet, but I just can't see myself buying any Apple products anytime soon.

Glad I had the opportunity to tour a local vineyard over the weekend. Tough times for our local vintners that contribute so much to our local economy, which is why I introduced my Specialty Crop and Wine Producer Tariff Relief Act.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

One of my friends interviewed at Palantir years ago, and one of their questions was what she knew about them. She replied "I heard you guys are evil" and for some reason they didn't hire her (for which she is now immensely grateful)
Palantir employees are pressing company leadership over its work for ICE in internal company Slacks obtained by @wired.com

"In my opinion ICE are the bad guys. I am not proud that the company I enjoy so much working for is part of this."
