Generally a very good article, and this quote sums up the GOP's priorities nicely:

www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...
“For one-tenth of what Trump just spent on tax cuts to the rich, we can have 10 years of guaranteeing people affordable health insurance in America,” Gruber said. “Why shouldn’t we do that?” A disproportionate number of those people live in areas that voted heavily for Trump, and West Virginia, Texas, Louisiana, and Mississippi have had some of the fastest-growing populations of ACA enrollees over the past five years.

A personal favorite of mine.
Commentary I Have To Admit: I Love The Nuts Published: November 19, 2003 I’m a squirrel on the go. I’ve got trees to climb and streets to cross. If anybody asks what keeps me going when squirrel duties pile up, I got one word for them: nuts! I know it’s a stereotype that squirrels go crazy for nuts, but in my case, it’s 100 percent true. I make no apologies or excuses. Why should I? I fully admit that I love the nuts! Somebody once said the only thing I cared about was nuts. Hey, guilty as charged. And what’s wrong with that? Nuts never hurt anybody—at least nobody in squirrel circles. Nuts are delicious! Just stuff a nut into your cheeks, chomp down, and unlock the nutty flavor. Before you know it, you’ll be like me—singing the praises of the savory goodness of nutty nuts.

A new Trader Joe's holiday treat this year - mini eclairs!

I tried one just now (coffee) and will probably try another later. The verdict: good pastry (surprisingly good for frozen), pleasantly sweet filling and frosting, but not a lot of distinct coffee flavor.
Trader Joe's assorted mini eclairs. A box of six small eclairs each in a different flavor (salted caramel, lemon, coffee, dark chocolate, raspberry, vanilla, and lemon). The box is light blue and white with medium blue lettering and has pictures of the eclairs on the box. Each has different decorations to signal the flavor inside.

I cancelled my subscription to @bostonglobe.com because I am sickened by their decision to publish Richard Hanania.

Only three days ago Hanania was on social media doing this:
Twitter post by Richard Hanania dated 11/15/25: "To call being attracted to 17-year olds pedophilia is basically calling all men pedophiles. It's like saying all white people are racist on account of the society they were born into. Reject all forms of bigotry." Reply from Dylan C: "I'm 47. I have not been attracted to 17 year olds for 30 years." Hanania replies "Maybe you're impotent?"

What
She orchestrated a plot with the help of a senior Trump official to try to have me imprisoned, and now she’s written what appears to be a largely fictitious and self-serving account about it all.

This may be the only good thing Ryan Lizza has ever done. If a man did this for me [redacted]
I can still picture the hotel paper and reporting notepads spilling into the walk-in closet, where a year earlier I had spent an afternoon on my knees carefully arranging scores of her boots, high heels, sneakers, and slippers on an enormous shoe rack. Olivia almost cried when she saw the results. “Nobody has ever done anything like that for me,” she said.

I salute your pettiness! And enjoyed the peeeeeeling simile.

Wheezing
And indeed, he was tired of getting the former mayor’s email — which had amounted to a decade of “brutal, vicious hate mail.” DeBlasio said he met de Blasio once, at a 2016 New York Mets play-off game. He said he was asked by security guards, who couldn’t believe the coincidence, “Hey, do you want to meet the real Bill de Blasio?” “How bad is it having the same last name as me?” DeBlasio recalls the mayor asking him. He responded: “Dude, you’re killing me.”

Honestly this is the best subreddit:
Post from r/WaspHating titled "Stoned Wasp or Government Spy Bot?" with accompanying video of wasp flying irregularly and post text reading "So I was chilling outside with my dogs on a smoke break, and I noticed a wasp a few feet away just hovering in place. I could hear the buzz and backed away. After a few minutes of that bastard blocking my way in, I figured I'd record some video, just in case it's a tiny drone from the military base over here spying on me... Lol jk."

As others have pointed out: it's on the hat in this pretty common meme.

I'd planned to let go of this discourse today but with a big national podcast guy posting this weird defense of Platner on the grounds that he's not a weakling who did some actual good things in the past, I can't quite get there yet.

I loved this and it also gives me the chance to remind people that the first cover of Captain America was this:
The cover of the first issue of Captain America from March, 1941. Captain America is. wearing the original red, white, and blue uniform and holding his shield in his left hand. He has just punched Hitler in the jaw with his right. The cover also depicts other Nazis, and a young Bucky Barnes.
