As someone who’s made a doc for Netflix recently and was left thoroughly disillusioned, I have to say, it’s pretty remarkable that THE PERFECT NEIGHBOR is number 1 on the platform.

MAGA wants to pretend that criticism of Columbus is some kind of novel woke mind virus. In reality, the atrocities he committed were roundly criticized in his own era. A priest named Bartolomé de Las Casas wrote an international best seller called “A Brief Account of the Destruction in the Indies”

Revlimid has its origin in a pill that cost patients $7.50 each.
Decades later, the cancer drug costs more than $18,000 for a month’s supply — even though it still only costs about 25 cents to manufacture.

Ezra Klein says his point in venerating CK is to say democrats should try and compete in red districts more. Sure. But CK had an $80M/yr budget. He’s pretending like CK was some gifted orator, spreading a gospel that progressives need to compete against. What if Ta Nehisi got $80m/yr?

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

So Donald Trump hasn’t posted in 6 hours? Since his one and only response to the courts striking down his tariffs? The thing he’s been obsessing over for years? You’re telling me DJT, the most exhausting needy human on earth, posted once about that and called it a day? Hmmmmmm.

Conservatives are trapped in a culture of consumerism. This Cracker Barrel hysteria is yet another sign of just how far down the corn hole this cohort has gone. The see no distinction between their identity and the perceived brand identities of the crap they consume.

I love to show up every day for my job, which is standing around holding the front of my tactical vest and getting told to choke to death by thousands of passers-by while 11 of my coworkers handcuff a roofer on his way to work. Every night I drive 80 minutes home, thinking about nothing at all.

Look Cuomo sucks. But making fun of someone for getting ratioed on social media is the lamest shit imaginable.
Losing the primary by 18 points to a political newcomer after spending $25M is the only ratio that is funny and matters
