Some health experts are saying that *it* could happen in the March to May timeframe. I hope it's the Ides of March, so I can say "Et tu, Tupée."

I’ll never ever believe that Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris lost their elections and Jack Smith’s damning testimony only helps to cement that for me.

In 2026 I want all of the decent people to remember one thing.
You aren’t meant to be this disciplined, this self-sacrificing to survive. The environment is supposed to support good living. We can have that. You are not a failure. That is politics.
That is all.

I would be sworn in on Jung’s Liber Novus
Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

“Can’t believe NYC elected a Muslim as mayor.”
In truth—a Black American Christian woman swearing in a Ugandan American Muslim of South Asian ethnicity as his Syrian American wife holds the Qurans he swears in on, all while standing on the steps of a subway station—is the most NYC thing imaginable.

THIS STUFF says infinitely more about the thoughts and inclinations of the electorate than all the bot-driven pro-MAGA stuff on social media.
DEMS WIN BIG IN IOWA: Democrat Renee Hardman wins IA State Senate SD-16 with 71.5%, a 27-point Dem overperformance from 2024. Harris won the district by 16. Hardman's victory blocks a GOP supermajority and makes history as the first Black woman elected to the Iowa Senate.

The Kennedy Center isn't the only performance venue in DC, and I doubt a district that votes 96% blue is going to stop going to the theater.
This is not hard. Artists are not responsible for ensuring the Kennedy Center remains relevant and successful. The center’s board is responsible for that, in a fiduciary way. All of this energy being directed at artists should be re-directed at the board.

CEOs are hugely expensive. Why not automate them?
If a single role is as expensive as thousands of workers, it is surely the prime candidate for robot-induced redundancy.

I tried out a new recipe tonight. Sounded good in description & theory. Smells good in the oven right now. One of the most poorly written recipes I've ever seen, though. Several steps were definitely missing and a few items missing from the ingredients list.

The idea that we should be happy all the time, and that if we're not happy there is something wrong with us, is arguably one of the worst ideas propagated by the late 20th century. Maybe unhappiness is a rational and healthy response to whatever situation you're presently in.
could the “you should be able to be happy living anywhere, and if you’re not able to do that, it’s a skill issue” contingent tell that to my winter seasonal depression, please?

Going to make a prediction: Trump will either kick the bucket while still in office or will be removed after a 2026 blue wave flips the House and Senate, leading to a third (and successful) impeachment. Vance will ascend to the Presidency, but only for a relatively short time.

This is some Nixon fuckery.
Julie K. Brown is a reporter for the Miami Herald who did groundbreaking work on Epstein beginning in 2018, including groundbreaking work on the disgusting coverup by Alex Acosta.
Her travel itinerary was released with some of the Epstein files. It appears the DOJ was monitoring her in 2019.

Guess what: you will not die if you stop consuming corporate entertainment.
(I’m fine with people making whatever choice feels right to them. But this idea that it’s infeasible or somehow shocking to contemplate going without TV and Hollywood-made things is just so 20th century.)
