i like this article just for the image asset
That old metaphor about the frog and the boiling water isn’t true: If you put a frog in a pot of water and slowly raise the heat, the frog will jump out before it gets boiled to death.
The question now is whether American journalists are smarter than frogs.

LA TACO is the real shit. Support them.
Los Angeles is under siege, and corporate-owned media has failed to meet this critical moment. #FreeLA
If you believe L.A. deserves better, support independent publications like L.A. TACO: lataco.com/join

I'm a huge fan of Chicago media critic @markjacob.bsky.social. Every week he has a brutally smart take on politics & the news media. This week may be my favorite yet with this graphic ⤵️ & this line:

How news coverage eases us into tyranny
When the media act like things are normal, they don’t reassure us – they gaslight us

They are showing Buñuel's VIRIDIANA at @filmforumnyc.bsky.social and I was trying to rank my favorite Buñuel movies in my head and came to the realization there are literally no bad Buñuel movies?

For what it’s worth (not much), I fall in the camp that the cavers were specifically selected by Schumer and much of the party to take the fall for their collective cowardice. Either way at minimum the leadership must go.
Every single person in Little Village fighting ICE/BP this week, each one of those people had more courage than the entire party leadership put together. Every single person in the street resisting in LA, Portland, Chicago, they're ALL showing more backbone than useless top tiers of Dem apparatus
I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

oh so these people do pay attention to who politicians follow on social media, they just don’t care that the vice president follows a bunch of actual neo-nazis
Axios tried to bust James Talarico for following adult content creators on Instagram and I'm genuinely impressed by his campaign's response

I havent read such a banger of an essay in a very long time. This is so well-written!
Maybe Don’t Talk to the New York Times About Zohran Mamdani
It’s remarkable, the people you’ll hear from. Teach for even a little while at an expensive institution—the term they tend to prefer is “elite”—and odds are that eventually someone who was a studen…

I understand why we shut down American airspace for a few days after 9-11 to avoid a repeat attack but imagine shutting down American airspace to avoid releasing the Epstein files.

Literally the one place in the country where Democrats got their clock cleaned was in the home county of state chair who refused to endorse Mamdani and has generally overseen a string very poor democratic performances.
Has New York Democratic Party chairman Jay Jacobs resigned over Mamdani yet? I hope he hasn't, so that he can instead resign over *improving Republican margins over Trump 2024 in an anti-Republican wave election*. Trump won Nassau by just 4%—now look at this bloodbath

Someone was watching SINNERS in front of me on a plane. So then I had to watch it again too. And then three other people around me did as well. Fucking rocks.
This shit still rocks, baby
As a longtime FROM DUSK TILL DAWN mark, SINNERS could not have given me more joy. Holy fuck
