If there is one thing that seems to universally link all centrists and righties, it's this: absolute bafflement at the idea that somebody might have consistent values
"This could take down Democrats, too."
I know. And I frankly wouldn't give even an itty bitty damn if it implicated every Democratic man in Congress, every Democratic hopeful for 2028 and every Democrat who has even thought about running for office.
Down with the sex predators, wherever they are.

Holy shit, just learned about the typewriter art of Montserrat Alberich Escardívol, a Catalan typist. Using an extra wide typewriter and 180 color ribbons, she built up elaborate images from simple characters like 'm' and '.' and ';'. Here is her typewritten painting of the Cathedral of Barcelona.

As I rapidly approach my 60th Birthday I am increasingly enraged by being called a 'kid' by folks that are younger than me because I support policies which threaten their unquestioned lives of privilege. Thomson is only 2 years younger than me, but she has had a much narrower life.
![Screenshot of the Wikipedia entry for Alice Thomson. Text reads:
Education and career
Thomson was educated at Bute House Preparatory School for Girls in West London, the School of St Helen and St Katharine in Abingdon, Oxfordshire and Marlborough College, Wiltshire. She graduated from Bristol University with a BA in history and received an MA in newspaper journalism from City University London. Thomson became a trainee on The Times in 1990 before becoming a foreign correspondent, feature writer and political reporter for the newspaper. In 1997 she moved to The Daily Telegraph as a columnist and leader writer and also wrote the restaurant reviews and political interviews before re-joining The Times in 2008. [2] She has written for Vogue and The Spectator and appeared on Question Time and Newsnight.
In 2014, jointly with colleagues from The Times, she was Political Journalist of the Year in the Press Gazette awards. [3] She was previously a Trustee of the think tank Policy Exchange, [4] on the Policy Committee of the CPRE, and a governor of Bute House preparatory school. [5] Thomson presents the podcast interview series What I Wish I'd Known with fellow Times columnist Rachel Sylvester which has now run for eight series [6] on Times Radio, which began in July 2020.[7] In December 2022, Thomson was chosen as the Interviewer of the Year at the Press Gazette British Journalism Awards.

The thing about the Edmund Fitzgerald is that it looked so goofy the lake gods had to swallow it up
Twenty-nine sailors drowned when the Edmund Fitzgerald went down in the Great Lakes' icy waters on Nov. 10, 1975. The ship was immortalized in a surprise hit 1976 folk ballad by Gordon Lightfoot.
50 years ago, the Edmund Fitzgerald, a 'rock star' ship, sank in Lake Superior

Hard to explain to non-Brits, but yes, people are genuinely emotional about a tube extension. Makes sense once you realise it's the only good thing to happen in ten years
The Elizabeth Line in London is interesting because it is concrete proof that it is actually possible for the state in the UK to do something good, like just straightforwardly it's a useful addition to our public transport infrastructure that works well and looks nice. So why are most things crap?

This is Bob and Mike in Twin Peaks
I saw a random reddit comment where someone theorized that Pennywise and Mary Poppins were the same species of primordial psychic entity, but Pennywise feeds on fear while Poppins feeds on joy. both of them eat kid emotions because fear and joy are more intense in kids. This is Canon for me now.

The BBC needs someone experienced enough to run a huge media org, and willing to take a job with no security. They need to know the BBC well enough to do the job, but not be an “insider”. They need to somehow be acceptable to a Lab government but also right-wing papers.

Yeah, but how is this a parody of Keir Starmer?
Andrew Tate has been charged with rape, human trafficking, controlling prostitution and actual bodily harm. Nigel Farage described him as "an important voice for young men". That tells you all you need to know about Farage's moral compass.
