Feels pretty good to have The Stranger Election Control Board's hard work, influence, and jokes recognized by the NYT today, but they neglected to appreciate the also very vital Pumpkin Pie Control Board. It's fine, I'm fine.

Taylor Swift hasn't emotionally developed beyond the age she got famous and that anyone continues to think her writing is interesting is the most interesting thing about her.

So the government has shut down on the same day Hegseth and Trump made their egomaniacal, condescending speeches to a room full of top military officials. And what happens during a shutdown? According to the BBC, "the military are required to work, but won't be paid until after" the shutdown ends.

People missing an important point about folks getting fired for whatever they said about Charlie Kirk: Americans are being conditioned to be snitches on their fellow citizens who don’t toe a party line on what is “allowed” to be expressed. And employers are going along. It’s the new secret police

Trump does not respect dead people. He only respects people who can benefit him. The dead are useless.
Q: My condolences on the loss of your friend Charlie Kirk. How are you holding up?
TRUMP: I think very good. And by the way, right there you see all the trucks. They just started construction of the new ballroom for the White House, which is something they've been trying to get for about 150 years.
