Posting my #WhiteLotus theory here - the shots at the start of the season are monkeys who have gotten ahold of Gaitpok's gun. The body floating by is Tim Ratliff, who commits suicide by blending up a pong-pong protein shake.

There's some seriously good snark in today's @washingtonian.bsky.social roundup, but this one might be my favorite (about last night's Wannabe Dictator Speech): "If you still think such things matter, here’s a fact-check."
Good morning, on Wednesday’s Washingtonian Today:

Cancelled mine when Bezos attended the inauguration. As a former journalist, it's so hard for me to NOT support my hometown paper, but here we are.
Given that Bezos just did a full takeover of @washingtonpost.com and now it can only report that America and money are great--today is a great day to cancel if you have it, you check to make sure you aren't paying for a forgotten subscription.

Keep in mind that the probationary federal employees who are now being fired are NOT just newly hired ones. If a long-term employee is promoted to a higher-level position, such as a supervisory or managerial role, then the employee may be subject to a probationary period for that new position.

There are people celebrating that Pride was removed from “official” celebrations by this administration. Saying things like “Pride is canceled!”

You cast the net too widely, and you’re gonna drown in it yourself. JD Vance’s book Hillbilly Elegy is now on a list of books to be reviewed and possibly banned, per PEN America.
