Hey Jon Stewart, jokes about wearing masks aren't funny
Critics of the Daily Show host say he's a hypocrite.

Insomnia thoughts:
Somewhere there's a video of a woman in a kitchen with her two cats. One cat, a void or a dark tabby, is stalking around the kitchen floor, yelling. The other, a big orange, is being held like a baby, wistfully staring into the middle distance, like a Pieta,

Rob Reiner had one of the most wide-ranging audiences of any American filmmaker. People rewatch his films with nostalgia and joy. They quote them with parents and pass them down to children.
Ignore the other one's commentary. It's like a black hole commenting on the sun.

Rob Reiner seemed to radiate kindness to me. One of the last people on earth I would have imagined would die this way. This after Brown U... after all the Trump administration cruelty this year... America needs serious help.
My heart goes out to Mel Brooks especially, how awful he must feel.

It just hit me that Murder on the Orient Express starts in Aleppo, which means even the benign first pages are soaked in blood... Aleppo was a major site of deportations (by train) and massacres in the Armenian Genocide. I wonder if Christie did that consciously, or was Aleppo just tourism for her.

Brooklyn! This will enrage you, and explain some of what's wrong with the Brooklyn "Democratic" Party. Seddio is still in control of it through his hand-picked successor. There is only one way to break this machine: sheer numbers. Join Rep Your Block to get it done.

In all seriousness,I have been that lonely where one person seems to bring the sunshine back, and then they're gone. It's gonna hit him. He'll probably react. I wish we're in the timeline where tomorrow he fires the entire Cabinet.

So Trump is using Mamdani to try to look normal. Best possible outcome. It won't last past the press conference. Mamdani is handling him like the weirdo uncle at the table, which is fine. No change in agenda or promises.

This podcast ep about Thiel and the tech bros' reach for divine powers is smart and actually hopeful about being able to defeat them.
Peter Thiel is obsessed with the Antichrist — but what does he actually mean when he talks about it?
This week @gilduran.com joins @parismarx.com to discuss how Thiel casts his enemies as the Antichrist to distract from Silicon Valley’s anti-human project.

This is an especially brilliant episode in a podcast that already sets a high bar. The last ten minutes critique the rich to perfection.
I'm not sure if Peter is intact by the end of the episode, though. Someone send him a casserole.

Of all the things I hate Megyn Kelly for, it took me a while to choose this one to focus on: Rape isn't sex. Rape is about power. There is no way for an adult to "have sex with" an underage person. Burn in living hell, Megyn. Living hell.
