The Onion summer writing fellowship is seeking applicants! It's six months, good salary and benefits.
This year's applicants do NOT have to complete the Eating Challenge, as it turns out this does not adhere to Illinois labor law. We apologize to those who have died in the past.

![Lester Kinsolving: Does the president have any reaction to the announcement by the Centers for Disease Control in Atlanta that AIDS is now an epidemic in over 600 cases?
Larry Speakes: AIDS? I haven’t got anything on it.
Lester Kinsolving: Over a third of them have died. It’s known as “gay plague.” [Press pool laughter.] No, it is. It’s a pretty serious thing. One in every three people that get this have died. And I wonder if the president was aware of this.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jwc6rjltbvw2wffcxyvy44qy/bafkreibx2qubqn6pnxcnwwzak6hns45lsbl3d3pgbys2o2lifrtvy2x2fi@jpeg)

Larry Speakes: You didn’t answer my question. How do you know? [Press pool laughter.]

a good start, but we need more. more idiots. more perverts. this isn't some bullshit town, this is new york city, and we won't rest until the mayoral race is a grotesque humiliation to us, to the country, and to humanity itself.
Breaking News: Former Gov. Andrew Cuomo announced that he would run for mayor of New York City, upending the race to unseat Eric Adams and setting up a comeback attempt three years after he resigned in disgrace.
Cuomo Enters N.Y.C. Mayor’s Race, Upending Contest to Unseat Adams
The comeback attempt, three years after Andrew M. Cuomo resigned as governor in scandal, will test New Yorkers’ appetite for second chances, and change.

one thing this demonstrates is the extent to which racial, gender, and sexual discrimination has been an important cause and substance of worker organizing, rather than (as is too often claimed) some kind of HR-driven distraction
This to me is one of the central stories about current US politics. The tech barons who decisively threw their support behind Trump wanted commercial benefits, of course; but even more, they wanted to discipline their own employees. That’s the real content of all the anti-DEI stuff.

This era was literally dubbed the Gilded Age because it was a time of such massive wealth inequality and political corruption.
Trump: "We were the richest relatively -- think of this -- from 1870 to 1913. That was our richest. Because we collected tariffs ... we had so much wealth. Of course, now we give it away to transgender ... everybody gets a transgender operation."

On Coco, an online platform for anonymous chat rooms, the psychology of invisibility met the power of the crowd. Dominique Pelicot used it to recruit strangers—at least 83 men—to rape his sedated wife.

Red Rooms shoulda been nominated for Best Picture.
Astonishing crowd inside Manhattan Criminal Court two hours before Luigi Mangione’s follow-up appearance. Organized chaos, people are in cordoned-off gaggles down the full length of the hall, chatting casually. Feels reminiscent of fans waiting for a concert ticket line to open.
