With Tom Lehrer's passing, I suppose this is a moment to share the story of the prank he played on the National Security Agency, and how it went undiscovered for nearly 60 years.

"Sadness is like a little bit of an emotional death but not a defeat if you can find a way to laugh about it. Because that laughter keeps you from having fear of it, and fear is the thing that keeps you turning to evil devices to save you from the sadness."

Q: Mr Cuomo, how will you win this time?

A: I’m gonna touch more young people
Spent this morning on the Q train with Andrew Cuomo, who took personal responsibility for his lackluster mayoral primary bid. He vows a very different general election run, saying he'll focus on "reaching out to more young people and touching more people." www.nydailynews.com/2025/07/16/a...

huh. that must be why Bret Stephens, a Republican, is using his New York Times column to try to prevent that mayoralty from happening: because it would be so good for Republicans
For Republicans, “a Mamdani mayoralty would be the political gift that keeps on giving,” our columnist Bret Stephens writes about the New York mayoral race. “The state of the city would become a reflection of the Democratic Party writ large.”
Opinion | Mamdani for Mayor (if You Want a Foil for Republicans)
Get ready for the G.O.P. to run against “Mamdani Democrats” for several election cycles to come.

This was Vin Scully's call of Henry Aaron's 715th home run. Tonight Major League Baseball cut off the first sentence, starting it with the "What a marvelous moment" part because they don't want to anger the white supremacists who run our country and of whom Rob Manfred is an ardent supporter.

Ladies, you have to use AI, it's the future because it makes tasks so easy but also it's really hard to learn so you definitely can't just start using it once you're required to at work, you have to go through an arduous process first to figure out how to use this tool which simplifies everything.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

We KNOW people hugely overestimate the share of the budget going to things like foreign aid, welfare programs, and public broadcasting. The media could combat this confusion by making a point of putting numbers in context, but the shitheads refuse to do it cepr.net/publications...

The media outlet that asks you to pay $25/month doesn't know if the president can take away an American's citizenship and has to call another person to figure it out
President Trump said on Saturday he was considering revoking Rosie O’Donnell’s U.S. citizenship. Trump has feuded with the comedian and actress since before he became president. Experts said the president does not have the power to take away the citizenship of a U.S.-born citizen.
