I don’t think it’s fair to ask the White House press secretary about Epstein’s 50 birthday book. That party happened in 2003 when she was 5 years old. At least let her consult with her husband. Nic Riccio should remember. He was 37 when that happened.

The Lexus ad where they show a family over the years & their car goes from a reasonable sedan to a bloated SUV with oversized hood by the end.
It accidentally tells the story of why pedestrian fatalities have been rising.

American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.

Be thankful for the small things.
Aside from absolutely everything else having to do with them, I am ecstatic to see the end of Giuliani, whose name I mistyped every freaking time, and the arrival of Mamdani, whose name is crazy easy to type.

The USDA sent an email to grocery stores telling them they are prohibited from offering special discounts to customers affected by the SNAP funding lapse.
I'm aware of at least 2 stores that had offered struggling customers a discount, then withdrew it after receiving this email

In food history, we notice how super-refined foods--gelatin, vienna sausage, white bread--lose class and become horrifying once they become industrialized. Suddenly, fingermarks in bread dough demonstrate skill, not clumsiness.
