All this, but also, this interview makes it seem like she didn't actually write her own book. It's like an abstract text to her. Also, she chose to monetize this and sounds appalled people want to ask questions.

Or, maybe she's just not very smart.
I'm still thinking about this exchange. As is often the case, we see Nuzzi acting out the most extreme version of a phenomenon that is actually pretty common in elite media: people taking umbrage at the idea that they're supposed to exercise moral judgment, and can be blamed for not doing so.
@timmiller.bsky.social: "He's being nominated to HHS Secretary…You had information that you could have shared…and you didn't share anything about him. Why? Did you still love him?"

The US is close to an institutional collapse across multiple public health agencies. Trump/RFK have purged anyone with expertise, many have fled and they’ve been replaced w functionaries who are either incompetent or malicious. I don’t think many understand how close to the edge we are right now.

Still trying to make Charlie-Kirk-was-our-MLK a thing, I see.
CBS News next weekend is broadcasting a Bari Weiss-Erika Kirk "town hall." Why not just start simulcasting Hannity?

I’ll put it this way: I have significantly more optimism that we can beat this particular set of fascists than I do that Dems will do what is necessary not to hand the country right back over to the next batch four year later
No value, no villain, no vision. Sounds like the tagline for the earnings call of a collapsing appliance retailer

Any other cheese workers have a gin and tonic and ibuprofen for dinner last night? Or was it just me?

Pediatricians say vaccines do not cause autism. A bear-eating heroin addict who fantasizes about sucking his own semen out of his lovers' orifices says they do. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

I mean, they may be scum, but waiting until their pensions kick in before quitting Congress is probably the most relatable things Republicans have done in years.

Not only are generations fake, they’re also something we basically invented a few decades ago. Compare when generations occurred (shaded areas) with when we settled on their names.

I paused watching the Great British Bake Off a while back, but I can't believe no one told me that *two* different contestants have schnauzers on Season 12. I feel like my community has really let me and Grumble down.
