I love that the last Daily Planet headline in SUPERMAN is about the death of an ordinary person, profiled by facial recognition software and murdered in a concentration camp, who will be celebrated and remembered for his life. There are no small lives. There are no inconsequential deaths.

Do the kids realize the reason they’re watching MISSION: IMPOSSIBLE 8 this weekend is probably because in the ‘90s some lunatic at Paramount kept greenlighting movies based on TV properties

“The Pentagon is in ‘total chaos’ and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is unlikely to remain in his role, according to its former top spokesperson, who painted a scene of dysfunction, backstabbing and continuous missteps at the highest levels of the department.”
Former Pentagon official warns department's dysfunction could topple Hegseth
“The last month has been a full-blown meltdown at the Pentagon,” John Ullyot, the former top Defense Department spokesperson, wrote in a POLITICO Magazine opinion piece.

The “in effect; virtually” meaning of 'literally' is not a new sense.

It has been in regular use since the 18th century and may be found in the writings of Mark Twain, Charlotte Brontë, James Joyce, and many others.

Just a reminder:

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. lacks formal education or professional credentials in critical scientific fields such as biology, neuroscience, psychology, psychiatry, immunology, virology, epidemiology, genetics, pharmacology, or medicine.

1) Fox News is for real not showing stock-market ticker during this week's collapse.

2) Its economic news is "strong jobs report."

3) Every time I've checked in today, the coverage has been "illegal immigrants committing new crimes."

This is state propaganda, on a par with North Korea or PRC.

If you think this can’t happen, remember that of the 125,000 Japanese Americans who were interned during WWII for years without charge or trial, two-thirds were U.S. citizens. Including me.

Mark Kelly: "This is not surprising. Here's a guy who told Americans to inject bleach into their bodies, who sent a mob to Capitol Hill. And now I think it's fair to say he stands out as singlehandedly destroying more wealth with his bad decisions than anybody else who has ever lived on this planet"

You can look at any Trump policy and ask "Is it based on stupidity/incompetence/misinfo, cruelty/hatred/vengeance, or both?" You almost never have to ask whether it's 4D chess or part of a long game. This country isn't being wrecked by geniuses. It's being wrecked by people who like to wreck things.

Sometimes in this fast-moving and complex modern world, it’s hard to know what’s right and what’s wrong. But here’s a handy rule of thumb: If you are ever on one side of an issue, and Sesame Street is on the other, YOU’RE the bad guy.

This is an example of how nostalgia for the old days is simply nostalgia for when you were younger.

The idea that America was a post-racial society in the 1970s/1980s only makes sense if you were literally a child at that time and couldn’t observe what any adult was experiencing.

I heard Bill Burr and a bunch of well-known actors are on broadway doing Glen Gary Glenn Ross. I haven’t been to NY in 25 years or anywhere since the pandemic and I love a play. So I goog the ticket price. It was $675 a seat.

Imagine DOGE opens your mail and finds your household electric bill. To eliminate this cost, they burn your house down without warning. Then they total up the bills that, as a homeless person, you will never again pay. On its website, DOGE boasts about the money it has saved you.
