The Algonquin Round Table were drunks and Communists but it’s important that we in the podcast community honor them as the first podcasters. Intermittently funny, jobs that let them dick around all afternoon, no audience to speak of. 🫡

Trump Is Turning the White House Into a 'Branded Estate'
The president’s teardown of the East Wing is a jarring visual reminder of his no-holds-barred commitment to reshape the nation in his own image.

I want to make it perfectly clear I've got nothing against TRON: ARES. I'm looking forward to seeing it.
But what I want most is for the younger generations to love going to the movies, which means we need more movies for them. Not every movie needs to be for 50 year old white guys.

My prediction is that in that scenario, he blames the Bureau of Labor Statistics, which puts out employment data. Calls them corrupt, run by Democrats, out to get him. Fires people there, insists their numbers cannot be trusted, White House puts out its own fictitious data to make Trump look good

“This isn’t a coincidence. It’s the result of federal policy choices — most immediately, sweeping job cuts across public-sector agencies where Black women have long held the strongest foothold in middle-class employment.”
300,000 Black women have left the labor force in 3 months. It’s not a coincidence.
For decades, the public sector has been a lifeline for Black women shut out of economic opportunity. It’s no surprise that Trump's federal downsizing targeted them first, explains gender economist Kat...

The story of the Epstein saga is not one of a secret elite pedophile conspiracy, it's that rich people were taking advantage of vulnerable teenage girls, it wasn't a secret, and *absolutely nobody cared*. Which tends to be the story with all these cases---the powers that be simply aren't interested.
I don’t think the U.S upper class are pedophile conspirators in the “toddlers in a basement” way: I think some powerful men get a conspiratorial thrill from the idea of fucking seventeen year olds who appear “consenting” but are actually being supplied to them at a party.

The subtext isn’t “so don’t worry,” but rather “this means there are still ways to resist and undermine the effort.”
