Trump actively enjoying his relationship with Mamdani is deeply surprising, especially given how allegedly-fellow Democrats don’t support him.
Huh.
… okay. I’ll take it. 🤷♂️ I feel like there’s something here to learn about. I’m guessing Mamdani studied hard how to engage with Trump’s mindset.

The bill that releases the Epstein Files has two separate caveats that allows the White House to redact information without justifying it to the public.
I don’t think this will result in a win.

I genuinely resented voting Yes on the gerrymandering in California, but understood its necessity in fighting Texas.
If Texas is blocked and the GOP just… loses the House because of this? That would be the funniest and most narratively delicious outcome. 🤣

EL PASO, Texas (AP) — Federal judges block Texas from using redrawn congressional maps that would boost the GOP in the 2026 midterm elections.

The only thing we know about GA is that it got delayed twice, and once was for firing their most experienced artists without a replacement plan.
I am 0% convinced it will be as good as people assume.

Just finished “Daredevil: Born Again”, and it’s such an achingly strong example of an artwork’s politics being hobbled by corporate interests.
The show has a clear and massive voice about police corruption and the rise of fascism. Yet, it qualifies everything with “but not ALL cops.”

Daredevil, as a character, means the world to me. He helped me get through the worst years of my youth, when I was constantly homeless and in stressful situations.
Crucially, DD's abilities kind of suck compared to others. His true power is that he can always endure further. That meant the world.

I have to hand it to Marvel Rivals: They absolutely nailed Daredevil. I had no idea how they could translate a character that has such a unique concept AND is distinctly weaker than most other major marvel characters. But they did a great job with him.
It brings my so much joy to play my boy!

Trump’s big play to curry favor during this scandal is to… take back… some of the other scandalous things he’s done.

There’s a type of queer media that exists, not for the benefit of queer people, but for straight people to congratulate themselves on enjoying. It doesn’t provide queer comfort. It provides Good Ally points.

This isn’t even “threading the needle” to avoid a lawsuit. It’s genuinely just a lie and propaganda.
