"With Closure, Kennedy Center Follows the Path of Trump Steaks, Trump Plaza, and Trump Vodka"
Gonna beg media not to just repeat Trump's obviously bullshit framing in the headlines. Tell readers the truth in the headlines.
Alternatives:
"With Artists and Audience Fleeing, Trump Closes Kennedy Center Indefinitely"
"Trump Says Kennedy Center Needs Renovation, Despite Recent $250M Renovation"

and i say this as someone who would've also voted for sombr's, lola young's, and addison rae's songs. "man i need" is just too damn catchy.
"man i need" is the song of the year. no doubt about it. you can chafe. you can protest. you can hope for something darker. but that song is the catchiest god damn thing i've heard in years and a balm for 2025/2026. a karaoke hit for generations to come.

If the Epstein files feel “too dark to be true,” that’s the point.

"microtransactions in games started by cabal of pedophile elites for the purpose of indoctrinating kids into an economy"
Ok. Well, we all knew it was evil somehow but I really didn't expect Epstein to be responsible for why video games are bad now. That's just not what I would've thought.

A few broader thoughts:
1) This election happened, period.
2) It happened in Texas, no less.
3) It happened even though Trump himself took an intense interest in winning it.
If Trump could cancel elections or ordain their outcomes, then why didn't he do that tonight?

Hundreds of community members showed up to Target today to tell them to stop being a safe haven for ICE. We’ve seen so many community members taken from Target & the Quarry as they allow ICE to use their parking lot.
