If I killed someone because of his vulture eye, hid their body under the floor, and the police didn’t seem to notice the beating of his hideous heart, I think I’d just keep that to myself. Why draw attention to it?

Not sure why prognosticators are surprised that lukewarm reviews have hurt The Smashing Machine’s box office numbers. Everyone knows that paper beats Rock.

the destruction of chattel slavery is one of the great accomplishments in our nation's history and the reason conservatives hate celebrating it is because doing so legitimizes the black counter-narrative of the united states

USMNT humiliated by Switzerland 4-0; Mauricio Pochettino’s squad loses fourth straight
That was a brutal, brutal first half. Some hard lessons delivered on the limitations of this pool. Not sure where the upside comes now...
Much more to come.

Come to the New York Times, the paper that’s unafraid to call a spade “what critics are describing as a small shovel.”
Corruption requires explict quid pro quo. It is not corrupt to take an action that aligns with the interest of a person who gives you a gift, unless the official action was in direct response to that gift--a bribe. Terms matter. Accuracy and fairness matters. Regardless of what social media wants.

"Woke" -- changing norms through social pressure -- is not, contra the reactionary centrists, another form of tyranny. It's the *alternative* to tyranny. It's new norms winning through the marketplace of ideas. The alternative is what we see now: enforcing norms via the threat of state violence.

This feckless idiot doesn’t have any feck at all. I want a minority leader filled to the brim with feck. Feckful even.
A shutdown would give Donald Trump and Elon Musk carte blanche to destroy vital government services at a significantly faster rate than they can right now.

Gonna be calling my senators in the morning and asking that we get a senate minority leader who is up to the challenge of the Trump administration. Because Schumer ain’t it.

Apple has so much of my data and screen tracking and every button I ever press. So why the fuck does it think I ever want to listen to the Hamilton soundtrack (which I never have) instead of Hamilton Leithauser (who I listen to all the time)?
