Noah Smith is paid in the high six-figures to write a blog read by Americans who believe themselves to be intelligent. Yet, he is both unable to read a sign and also for some reason chose to have a 90 minute layover for a flight that takes 90 minutes.

i think a lot of older democratic voters trust congress to negotiate effectively, but younger voters do not because that trust hasn't been earned in their lifetime. too many senators can't see this, but one way to make them see it is to vote for their challengers in the primaries

The “smart blood” nanobots they injected Bond with in SPECTRE get a software update so that they can put him back together and neutralize the Heracles nanobots he was infected with in No Time To Die but the process isn’t perfected so that’s why he looks differ— JUST START OVER, YOU DUMMIES.
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Oh, I love this. A new species of sea anemone was discovered recently that parks itself on top of a hermit crab shell like a hat. It seems to feed partly off the crab's faeces, but it also excretes a hard shell that extends the crab's home. In return, it's carried around the seafloor like a king.

She is likely to be the 218th vote on the Epstein discharge petition, which would force a full vote to release the Epstein files in their entirety.
