As Stoppard wrote, and as I contemplate often: “I don't think writers are sacred, but words are. They deserve respect. If you get the right ones in the right order, you can nudge the world a little or make a poem which children will speak for you when you're dead.”

The administration that uncancelled swastikas yesterday wants us to believe that it is blackmailing universities because it is so sincerely against antisemitism?

Thanks to his new Tesla pay package, Elon Musk could stand to make $3 billion more per year than all 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined. Still wondering if inequality is out of control?

According to the car wash owner, agents arrested employees before they could obtain their documentation from their work lockers. So many were likely here legally.

My dad used to say, “Every day you don’t sell a stock, you buy it.”

Platner looked at that Nazi tattoo every day for years and years, and knew precisely what it was, and was fine with it.
I already knew, but the Nazi tattoo thing really hammers home that a lot of folks that identify as democrats just don’t have a will or enough common sense to fight racism. Y’all, you don’t accidentally get and keep a Nazi tattoo you dingbats.
