this is one of the sweatiest and most desperate documents the the united states government has ever produced

Still waiting for a more efficient explanation of everything than "Everyone got brain damage from Covid": the airline executives charging a $155 predatory premium for legroom, the guy deciding to customize his own flight experience, the chain of command aborting the whole flight—busted mind-traffic!

the problem with the girlboss wasn't that women had ambition. it was that ambition is a trap and the girlboss is a contributor to her own oppression. instead of changing the world, she optimized her way into it, and ended up with only burnout to show for it. it's just lean in for millennials.

Welcome to the capitalist innovation museum we got

- scam machine
- psychosis inducing machine
- weapons of mass destruction
- button you push that makes the planet hotter
- markets that intentionally starve people
- clothes that fall apart after washing them 1 time
- medicine you can’t afford

Got a recent Pulitzer for warning on the spread of autocracy around the globe, after decades of service to the paper? You can bet your butt you're getting laid off by form email, on Yom Kippur

you cannot lose elections to people that suggest lee greenwood for the super bowl halftime show over bad bunny

Hats off to one of the most craven dolts ever to do it. variety.com/2025/music/n...

if blue state governors and mayors aren't already thinking about the reliability of various police forces nominally under their control, they should start immediately

I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Streets are still closed off in front of the Portland ICE facility at 8:30pm. Protesters have gathered on a side street. Dance party in progress.

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

FINALLY

One of the more incredible stories out of LA this year has been how a taco review blog became the best on-the-ground coverage of ICE raids in the city.

They do a dispatch every day, follow-up on the kidnapped people (which almost no media outlet has done), and fact-check government claims.

we’re gonna need a cbs news pitchbot pretty soon

can u imagine how hard the white house staff is working to desperately hide this news from trump right now lol

ICE is lying. Go figure

I kind of can’t believe this Bari Weiss quote is even real, and yet www.nytimes.com/2025/10/06/b...

I’m just a girl, standing in front of Dan Rather, asking him to go absolutely scorched-earth on Bari Weiss

"Democrats refused to organize around court expansion or any other reform that could have reduced the power of this antidemocratic institution. They continued to prop up the court at the very moment there was an opportunity to cut it down to size."

Hopefully the whole Bari Weiss thing and Ezra Klein thing starts waking people up to the fact that corporate media is mostly populated with mediocre people who have made millions and gained unbelievable influence because they threaten nothing and tell wealthy people exactly what they want to hear.

Judge Diane Goodstein crossed the Trump administration last month. Yesterday, her home burned, her husband was injured and it's being investigated for arson.
