OBAMA: It's fair to say that 80% of the world's problems involve old men hanging on who are afraid of death and insignificance, and they won't let go. They build pyramids, and they put their names on everything. They get very anxious about it.

Some incredibly good news:

One year ago this week, The Onion returned to print.

In that one year, we’ve grown to the 13th largest print newspaper in the United States, just ahead of the Boston Globe, and growing fast.

In short, it’s working.

So… thank you. Thank you for helping save this thing.

It would be so cool if Democrats (the "opposition party") acted as if we were in a constitutional crisis in which a lawless tyrant was acting in clear violation of Congress and the Supreme Court.

I would love that.

We expected 2,000 people out in GOP-held Greeley, Colorado.

11,000 people showed up.

Something special is happening, folks. Now is the time to organize in every dimension possible and get to work.

This is puzzling. I think the Academy simply forgot it came out this year. The best film about competition that has ever been made.

🚨 BREAKING: This is beyond outrageous. Elon Musk, his cranky mother Maye, and one of his young kids were chauffeured in Air Force One and Marine One—straight to the White House, where they’re apparently staying.

WTF is going on? It goes without saying, this is not normal. 🙄

The mistake being made about Meta is to say they're just doing this to make conservatives happy. They've been doing that a decade+. Removing fact checkers and bringing back political content means there will be more stuff that gets more people mad which creates more engagement. Growth at all costs.

Games Journalism is like fewer than 40 people now. Magazines are basically gone and websites are not far behind. None of this is a surprise, but it's incredibly sad. We had something awesome for a while there. Younger generations have no idea what they missed out on.
