Dr. Abraham spent decades as a physician and a VETERINARIAN.
During the Covid-19 pandemic, he backed the drug hydroxychloroquine & supported making ivermectin, a drug for parasitic infections in animals and humans, available OTC. Both drugs have been shown to be ineffective against Covid.

In my teens I briefly flirted with bowler hat wearing, a flirtation that abruptly came to an end the day I also tried to eat an apple and got called a 'Magritte Dickhead' by a particularly cultured bully.

What do you call an ice-resurfacing machine partly funded by a ’90s grunge band? A Pearl Jamboni, of course.

NPR played a story about the history of Jiffy Mix this morning and… apparently some people use it for their cornbread dressing?!
My Alabama grandma is rolling in her grave. The second ingredient in Jiffy Mix is sugar—more sugar than cornmeal. Y’all really want dressing made out of cupcakes?

There's a whole swath of political media -- Semafor, Axios, Politico, etc. -- where the average piece reads like a press release commissioned by its subject rather than an objective and independent analysis of them.
This is just embarrassing.

Assuming this is related to Ben Smith I was honestly shocked by this, an astonishing bit of bootlicking from top to bottom

ALSO, today’s 1,200 word front page story by the Strib’s retail reporter (the Strib doesn’t have a labor reporter) devotes exactly one sentence to Target’s blunders, implying that the boycott was brief.
I wonder whether the retail reporter ever reads the letters to the editor; this one ran on Sat.
