In the audience tonight is Charlotte Bennett, one of the 13 women that Andrew Cuomo is credibly alleged to have sexually harassed while they worked in his government.
She can't speak for herself because Cuomo's lawyers have hounded her.
So I confronted him.

Also so odd that Jeff Bezos suddenly wants to buy Condé Nast, the parent company of (among other inconvenient publications) Wired.
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.
NEW: Metadata from the “raw” Epstein prison video shows approximately 2 minutes and 53 seconds were removed from one of two stitched-together clips. The cut starts right at the “missing minute.”

Emmy nominations today. It will be nice to have a day online where my feed is full of people saying “They can’t just keep getting away with it” but they’re talking about The Bear running as a comedy

Enjoyed the first season of MURDERBOT but I truly think they should have cut down the narration because while it’s straight from the Wells books it just felt needless and actually dampened some of the humor

Wow so you’re telling me everyone who cheered on the Iraq war is on board with this now too? And so are the people who opposed the Iran nuclear deal and killed it?
You’re kidding.

This is exactly the kind of brand of analysis I expect from Van Jones (derogatory)
CNN’s Van Jones urges “progressives” to “get on board” with bombing Iran:
“I think progressives underestimate how dangerous Iran is. Iran is not a normal country,” he said on air.
Jones did not share whether he considers Israel—an apartheid state currently committing genocide—a “normal country.”

Can’t wait for more endless articles saying “I didn’t vote for this part, either.” Yes, you did. Stop pretending you have principles. People are going to die and it’s monstrous to center your own crocodile tears

It's pretty irritating how many pundits would hear the ideas "I want to shove 100 live scorpions in your mouth" and "I want to shove 0 live scorpions in your mouth" and sagely declare: "The wisest course of action is to let someone shove 50 live scorpions in your mouth."

I don't think I've ever felt more like burning it all down than I have while witnessing the elite project to turn Zohran Mamdani and Brad Lander into scary, incompetent monsters while turning an actual incompetent monster, Andrew Cuomo, into a merely complicated fellow who just made an oopsie.
