This one is a favorite of mine in recent memory.

My love is bigger than a cadillac
I try to show you but you drive me back
Your love for me has got to be real
You're going to know just how I feel
Our love is real, not fade away

Vinyl. And I still have it in my still growing collection.
I love and listen to music mostly via digital means both in my library and Apple Music, but selectively buying and listening to vinyl is fun.
I was 10 when I bought this -

She's objectively a really bad person.
I had to google the tweet from a long time ago as I'm not on that platform anymore. But this is an all time classic.
2021 tweet from Bethany Mandel: "I got an STD in my eye while I was at a rave in a bathhouse in Budapest and now I’m so old and boring that people think I do my cheating on my husband at a mother fucking playground. A PLAYGROUND. I’m sorry, it’s insulting. I know I’m a mom but DO BETTER."

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.”

The great author @carlhiaasen.com wrote a book that satirizes MAL and the Trumpettes. Such a great book (as are all of his).

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Squeeze...
Plot points from the novel "Squeeze Me" by Carl Hiaasen. Part One: Get a Grip On January 23, elderly socialite Katherine "Kiki" Sparling Pew Fitzsimmons wanders onto the grounds of the exclusive Lipid Estate in Palm Beach during the annual "White Ibis Ball" to benefit victims of IBS. When Kiki fails to return, a search of the grounds finds only her purse, an empty martini glass and a half-bitten tablet of ecstasy littered next to the koi pond. Kiki's best friend, Fay Alex Riptoad, demands that Police Chief Jerry Crosby devote his department's entire resources to finding her. Crosby has little choice but to comply, knowing that Kiki, Fay and five other Palm Beach widows co-founded the "POTUS Pussies" (shortened to "Potussies" for media purposes); besides their considerable combined wealth, the women are all loyal supporters of the President of the United States and frequent guests at his nearby "Winter White House", Casa Bellicosa.

Shit, that's actually way off. They were going off the previous assessed value.
Went to the website to calculate taxes:
Showing the property taxes for the home posted above. 63k/year New York State elsewhere would be 153K/year National average: 84k/year

Everything about him is bad. Everything.
The New York Times and The Washington Post reconstructed what happened next. Their investigations demonstrated not just that Trump broke his promise and destroyed valuable art. The journalists discovered that, when his cultural crime caused an uproar, Trump hid behind a pseudonym and lied to the public: “What followed was a display of arrogance, excuse-making and avoidance of tough questions that is familiar to anyone who has observed Trump’s interactions with the media throughout his campaign for the White House.” When journalists inquired of the Trump Organization about the existence of the two limestone Art Deco friezes, a spokesperson going by the name John Barron replied: three independent experts had found that the works had “no artistic value” and were worth at most an estimated $9,000. According to “Barron,” the removal would have cost $32,000 and would have meant a week and a half delay of the demolition work. The alleged costs for the delay were later calculated by Trump’s side to be $500,000. The next day “Barron” was quoted as saying that the bronze latticework that had hung over the entrance to the Bonwit Teller building was also missing: “We don’t know what happened to it.” The artist Otto J. Teegan, who had designed the piece in 1930, responded, “It’s not a thing you could slip in your coat and walk away with.” “It’s odd that a person like Trump, who is spending $80 million or $100 million on this building, should squirm that it might cost as much as $32,000 to take down those panels.”

Yea..
Earlier this month, the University of San Francisco warned that a man wearing Meta glasses was reported to be filming female students. A woman went viral on TikTok because she was freaked out upon noticing her esthetician was wearing the glasses during a Brazilian waxing appointment. A Border Patrol agent was spotted wearing the glasses at an immigration raid. A year ago, two college students rigged the glasses to dox strangers using facial recognition software.

JFC.
So, I went and found said article. I enjoy long form journalism. When done well. This is really, really bad. For whatever reason, this bit pissed me off the most because it sounds like something an "aspiring author" would write. Can't put my finger exactly on it, but.. just bad.
After saying goodbye, I was eager to check my phone; it was September 11 in New York City, and Charlie Kirk had been murdered the day before. The whole day I’d had a hazy sensation of walking through the open maw of death. As I padded toward the elevators, I passed by the Lafayette room, where the firm holds its all-hands meetings, and remembered a story I’d been told at some point about it.
