It sucks going back and trying to rewatch classic movies and finding them just absolutely riddled with misogyny to the point that they're basically unwatchable.

One of the worst parts about being sick is how bored I get, because one part of my brain is still like, "Come on! Let's do something!!", but the rest of my brain feels like it's melting out of my ears.

HEB had Goya tamarind soda, which sounded too interesting to not try, and it's... very good

Anyone who's had one can probably agree that Jelly Babies are a fantastic candy. But the fact that they are literally shaped like little babies is... pretty off-putting. And I just learned that when they were first mass-produced, they were called "Unclaimed Babies"????? WTF England??

And that's just the craft itself, not to mention the people skills needed to navigate the customers and co-workers, and the multitasking skills needed to make multiple drinks at the same time while also doing all the people-skill stuff.
it's not that i ever doubted that being a barista was a skilled position, but my year-long effort to try to produce a half-decent latte at home has convinced me that a good barista is easily more skilled than virtually every c-suite executive on the planet

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.

Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.
so currently defectors are:

Kaine (2030)
Shaheen (Retiring)
Hasan (2028)
Fetterman (2028)
Durbin (Retiring)
CCM (2028)
Rosen (2030)
King (2030)

Remember Rev. David Black, the Chicago pastor who was shot in the head with pepper balls? If you haven't heard him speak yet, listen to this.

I think maybe there should be a limit to the number of things that can go on any given ballot. There were 31 items on this one, and it was a chore and a half.

I don't see a lot of people talking about this, so I want to highlight something GOOD

Billie Eilish stood in a room full of billionaires and said "you're billionaires... Why?"

She donated 11.5 MILLION DOLLARS to food equity and climate orgs, which Stephen Colbert announced to said billionaires.

With SNAP probably going away at the end of the week, this is probably one of the easiest, most effective ways to help
food banks have already been under pressure over the past several years, and with SNAP benefits expiring they're going to be the only safety net for a lot of people

please donate what you can. $100 can feed several families for a month because of the discounts and purchasing power they have

Surprise surprise, biblical literalism became a big thing in American Christianity as a way of defending slavery.

This is really good info, I didn't realize
I know I'm always banging on about this, but food banks can do so much more with your donation if you give money rather than food itself.
