to have an affair with one longshot presidential candidate twice your age that you’re profiling may be regarded as a misfortune; to have two looks like carelessness

SHE'S AN EDITOR?!

Okay, I knew I knew this name from somewhere!

Everyone here is trash!

Excited to meet new trash characters!

It's like Succession is back on!
underrated bit of handwaving in the lizza blog

my beloved girlfriend has an inexplicable attraction to grotesque, almost supernaturally weird old men. guys who look like the adults from a roald dahl story. fellas who act like they were perhaps recently animals turned human through some unnatural bargain with the fey. not me though

OF COURSE SHE IS
The one thing I have to add to The Discourse is that I have it on good authority that Ryan Lizza’s current girlfriend is in her 20s.

This Lizza / Nuzzi goss is so fucking messy, I've never smashed a subscribe button faster in my life.

There's no time like the present to leave it all behind, live in a hollow tree, become a dark druid, and befriend the moss & owls.
They will not hurt you like the world does.
Except for the owl bites.
Those are quite painful.

ok I read some of the Nuzzi piece and I am pleased to announce that I will never feel bad about my own writing ever again

Instead of the Nuzzi shit, let's focus on the fact that apparently Johnny Knoxville got married this past weekend, the wedding was officiated by John Waters, and a dog was involved

Oh, man.

I really hope this helps some folks who are desperately looking for help. I genuinely do.

But, based on my personal experience, a lot of these folks will relapse and die without an opportunity to find a real solution.

The fallout will be truly catastrophic.

The lack of holiday displays at California Adventure is the most red flag depression indicator I've seen all week.

It's $100/day/pp to look at that pier and the Mouse can't justify the cash for streamers.

We're doomed, bro.
No Festival of the Holidays stage on the Wharf or in the Palisades Stage or Arches this year. It's like the entire sign budget was dropped.

Texas apparently has a house where six of the football players live together and I think a good name for that collective would be The Place That Smells Like Ass

Ken Burns beginning The American Revolution with the voices of the Six Nation Tribes is brilliant and a testament to his character.

Man, this timeline is fucked, but it's excellent television.
BASH: We have seen these attacks from the president at other people. It's not new. And I haven't heard you speak out about it until it was directed at you.

MARJORIE TAYLOR GREENE: I think that's fair criticism. And I would like to say, humbly, I'm sorry for taking part in the toxic politics.

Shout out to the Indigo Girls for understanding that their fan base really needed oversized t-shirts for big girls and pregnant bellies.

I'm so incredibly cozy right now.
