The filter that separates correct and insightful political and cultural takes from across the internet and across way too many podcasts.

Trump: I need people to stop talking about Epstein

Stephen Miller: I would distract them with racism

Trump: That's a fantastic idea. This is why I summoned you so many years ago

@johngreensbluesky.bsky.social being able to tie anything back to Tuberculosis was described as a party trick. So I thought is there a party game spin-off to the book maybe called ‘Everything is …’ where people pick cards with events or things and tie those things back to a topic of their choice?

One of my favorite content creators/internet peoples John Green came in third in my favorite round up of traditional media/ late night! Congrats @johngreensbluesky.bsky.social it was a great funny appearance!

This post has been talked about and it is bad. But has anybody noticed that Don Jr. is implying Jill should have noticed because she is a Doctor. Does he know she is not a medical doctor but rather has a degree in education?

I knew someone who played a human child on Sesame Street and I never thought to ask if they were an employee of the federal government. However I have read enough about the finances of PBS now that I probably understand their own contract better than they did at the time (because they were a child).

Sometimes I open Bluesky and forget that other communities besides the ones I engage exist here. So I saw Fred Warner was trending and was like is he a crazy new cabinet secretary or a breakout comedian but then saw it was sports ball stuff so nvm I guess.

I think I need someone to explore Biden’s Legacy via the finale of Hamilton. That song is all about how he never had enough time. Biden was the opposite he had one of the longest careers ever.

Someone yesterday said that it is okay not to have a take on the Biden news. I was like okay fine but I think people can be respectful towards an old man’s health while making meaningful criticisms of his legacy. Obviously neither critics nor supporters of Biden would not weaponize this diagnosis.

There is a play to be written in 20 years about the rise and fall and inner evil of Karoline Leavitt and this play could very well be a modern Hamlet.
Leavitt: "This plane is not a personal donation or gift to the President of the United States, and everyone who wrote that last week so go and correct their stories."

This is an obvious point, but cannot overstated. There is an enormous difference between deporting someone - where they get off a plane as a free citizen in their home country AND FUNNELING THEM INTO A BRUTAL PRISON FROM WHICH THEY HAVE NO CHANCE OF EVER EMERGING!!!
