So I guess Tony Clark would be the first person to ever be telling the truth when he says he's resigning to spend more time with his family.

It's also interesting that they did this to Talarico, whose sincerity, authenticity, and inclusive Christianity is winning over people like Rogan, and who seems particularly threatening to the vengeful, grifting evangelicalism that dominates MAGA.
One way to identify right-wing dominance of the US media environment: This is much more direct, egregious government censorship than the biggest claims of the “Twitter Files”—including ones they made up that had no evidence behind them—and will get a small fraction of the attention and outrage.
Stephen Colbert blasted Brendan Carr after FCC scrutiny led CBS to pull an interview with Texas State Rep James Talarico. Instead, 'The Late Show' posted it to YouTube.

So far it looks like Trump, Noem, and operation metro surge drained Minneapolis alone—not yet counting St. Paul, Bloomington, etc.— $203 million. This was a MAGA Trump assault on an American blue city. Nothing more. Start seeing it.

Curling must be one of the most insane sports ever invented. Right there with two-man luge.

Sliding things at a target on ice? Total sense. Completely fine with that. But the giant granite stones and the pebbling and the brooms? Bonkers. Pure lunacy.

The drunk uncle theory.

You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there
agree with this (hah) but also think a particular mistake the left made for a long time online, and still makes to an extent, is failing to understand that the person whose mind you may actually change is the one reading the argument you're having, not the one you're arguing with
The secret to engaging in social media debate is knowing you will never win anyone over. The best you can hope for is to have people who already agree with tell you you're awesome. You might great a dopamine thrill from the righteousness of your anger! Fine benefits, all. But you will never win.

If you’re wondering how close today’s monobob race was over 3 1/2 miles of sliding, the IBSF has this handy image for you.

Elana beats Laura by a few feet, and Kaillie by about a sled length.

This is one of my biggest sticking points against requiring IDs for things. Sure, I get the argument. But part of that should also be the infrastructure to make it as easy as possible to get those IDs. That Republicans aren't in favor of that is a huge tell that they're just gaming the system.
This scheme to make passports harder to obtain comes as Republicans are trying to make passports one of the few documents that can be presented in order to be permitted to register to vote.

American culture of the 1840’s would have been *very fucking surprised* to see the Irish considered as co-founders.

Elon’s an ahistorical dipshit, but its always worth saying some stuff out loud: if you‘re a fellow Irish-American and you aren’t 100% pro-immigrant, you’re a fucking embarassment.
1/3 What Musk is really referring to here is, of course “race” - that construct that served to define the hierarchies of wealth & power structured by modern colonialism. Like other far right racists though, he uses the word “culture” as a seemingly less pernicious synonym.
