Dolly Parton is so good at arranging music. It's wild how she can perform a duet with absolutely anybody, in any vocal range, from any genre.
She's so good. It's so wild. I know everyone knows and loves Dolly but is it possible she is still underrated?

If a scholar of petro-masculinity said that men lust for coal, it would be seen as an exaggeration. But here we are...

I hope ICE workers never see a day of happiness again. Every toilet seat will be wet. No one has invited them to Thanksgiving in years. Every tomato tastes like an April tomato.
“The frustration isn’t yet producing mass resignations or major internal protests, but the officers and agents described a workforce on edge, vilified by broad swaths of the public and bullied by Trump officials demanding more and more,” Nick Miroff writes.
Trump loves ICE. Its Workforce Has Never Been So Miserable.
A “mission impossible” deportation campaign has left many employees burned out and morally conflicted.

SCOOP: Mamdani Identified as Asian and African American on College Application
I co-report for The New York Times: Zohran Mamdani was born in Uganda. He doesn’t consider himself Black but said the application didn’t allow for the complexity of his background.

When I worked at McDs this woman would go twice a week and order a large sweet tea in the drive thru and then pull off and come in to complain about it. Order, pay, complain, get a refund. Twice a week.
Finally my manager refused to give her a refund and goes "Maybe you just don't like sweet tea?"

these people are so wild you give them examples they say 'that's engineering!' or 'that's based on an idea from 50 years ago!'
They are creationists asking for the missing link. you will never convince them because they have a conservative values of "science was better way back when"
cringy.

I can see the progress in astronomy and physics. But the foundational physical theories actually have not progressed as far. There has not been something as groundbreaking as relativity or quantum mechanics in the last 50 years.

I don't think people appreciate this song enough. Linda Rondstadt covered this one, written and performed by Mike Nesmith (yes, the Monkees), changed one pronoun, and turned a song about a womanizing philanderer into a feminist manifesto.

The Rogan-ification of the GOP. Republicans notice an appetite for conspiracism and see value in keeping the base in a state of paranoid paralysis. It's chum, and it intentionally avoids real power analysis that would help answer questions re: Epstein, JFK's assassination, etc.
