New fuckery revealed at insider-trading market Kashi. (It’s fuckery all the way down.) Milwaukee Bucks star player Giannis Antetokpunmpo was openly talking about wanting to be traded. This spurred a big increase in the markets regarding stay with Bucks vs other team…(1/4)
My new hobby:

Watching sportsbetters losing their shit about grading decisions by Polymarket and Kalshi. It's absolutely glorious. (I don't use either of them and am quite unlikely to do so in the future. But I am a mostly read-only lurker in some forums where gamblers talk about them.)

We've only been aware of Trump's racism since a 1973 article about his real estate company refusing the rent apartments to black people, the first ever mention of his name in the NYT. That's why his Obama meme comes as a total shock. Who knew?

So I decide to log in to the site that for acquiring psychic injury. And what do I see? Tons of screenshots of the Obamas as apes? I'm sure this is very healthy.

Really wild to see this termed as a "rival" situation because Novo is a pharma company that actually developed and manufactures the drug in question for highly regulated distribution to the public and Hims & Hers is a uhhhh telehealth company selling unauthorized gray market versions of Novo's drug

I'm sorry when was AOC a "left-wing agitator?" She was an elected member of congress. She didn't harass fellow members like MTG did/does.

Is being left of Pelosi considered being an "agitator" by the NYT's?

Does Kellen know what being a "left-wing agitator" means?

1911: Ronald Reagan, the 40th U.S. president (1981-89) was born in Illinois. He was known for his fervent racism and staunch commitment to dismantling advances in the U.S. across the board. We owe much of the current situation to him.

I think often of the women in the Louis CK story—how they all left comedy and never went back, but he’s still going. It’s everywhere and it’s such a loss for them and for us—for things they’ll never make that we’ll never see.
the Epstein files are really devastating because they remind me of how many girls and women miss out on professional opportunities, mentorship and careers because of how many powerful, rich and influential men only view girls and women — and interactions with them — through the lens of sex

This is why I can't understand the incrementalism. There's horror shit happening to kids in these places. Horror shit. OK? That has to matter. The longer we wait the longer these kids suffer.
I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.

What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?

I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

Among the folks involved in the atheist/skeptics movement from a a couple decades ago, Rebecca Watson was one of the ones I least expected to see in the Epstein files. But she is. In a good way. There are several others involved in a not-so-good way, and a lot of them are unsurprising. (1/2)

Hey everyone!

Huge news! Our trans girl scout list has sold a total of 146,000 boxes as of today!

But MANY trans girl scouts only have 20, 30, 40 boxes sold.

I just resorted our list to put those on the top.

Go get your girl scout cookies and make a trans kid's day!

From the Epstein files: were Paul Volker and Tom Brokaw really members of a secret society with a "no minorities or women allowed" rule? Brokaw is still around -- worth asking him!

I was today years old when I learned the Charles Murray was still alive. Wikipedia says he is 83, and not, as I would have guessed, 133. But at least he’s miserable.
Forgive me, Jesus, because I genuinely deeply enjoy how perpetually unhappy and desolate these losers are.

Whole lot of you following Neil Gaiman, and I assume it's because you forgot you did so and he stopped posting when it was revealed he is a rapist.

Since he's trying to make a return, do yourself a favour and check if you're following @neilhimself.neilgaiman.com and if so unfollow and block.

So the issue here is the same as it is for many conservatives: He doesn’t consider anything he does to be “political” because he believes that all reasonable people already agree with him.

A lot of religious persecution. Either to get away from it or to start some more of it. One fleeing an induced famine. One sentenced to Transport. One indigenous. One eventually most likely traces back to a slave ship. The Mormons weirdly didn’t have good genealogy records on those last two…
Genuinely curious: If your family is American, what brought them here?

So the next step from democrats is: “it is illegal to do this without approvals and in 2029 we will hold all companies that take part criminally liable and seize all their assets to pay for restoration.”
He's totally tearing it down.
REPORTER: Do you plan on tearing down the Kennedy Center during renovations?

TRUMP: “I’m not ripping it out, I’ll be using the steel. So, we’re using the structure. We’re using some of the marble, and some of the marble comes down.”
