He doesn’t run the paper laissez-faire because of his other business interests. He’s just a dirtbag.

New DOGE names:

The accounts of DOGE focused on young Silicon Valley engineers are incomplete.

It also includes attorneys with elite establishment credentials -- at least two former SCOTUS clerks and a third who will clerk for Gorsuch next term

The Elite Lawyers Working for Elon Musk’s DOGE Include Former Supreme Court Clerks
Much attention has been paid to the young Silicon Valley engineers working for Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency, but the group has also hired high-powered legal talent.

Last night I was watching Vertigo. Easily one of my favorite films. During the opening credits I saw the Saul Bass had done the design and animation direction. I love this aesthetic so much.

At least THR got the headline right.
Sometimes a Nazi Salute Is a Nazi Salute
Did Elon Musk intentionally "sieg heil" at a Donald Trump inauguration rally? Sometimes it only matters what you do, not what you intend.

@jvl.bsky.social - quite disappointed that you bought into the Trump Meme rugpull.

Being more clever than the ones who will lose on this grift doesn’t make it right. It puts you in the wrong section of the venn diagram.

I completely understand TikTok creators being upset that they are losing income. I don’t understand being upset at Dems when Trump & Rs are the ones who started this. Now they suddenly reverse their position to enrich themselves. Wake up, open your eyes, you’re being conned.

Today we honor what would’ve been Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.’s 96th birthday. 🖤 Dr. King was revolutionary who fought for justice, equality, and love when the world needed it most. His fight isn’t over—it's on us to keep pushing, keep resisting, and keep his dream alive.
