keep thinking about the evil of this. It's not just destroying the physical books, bad as that is. They are trying to remove the underpinnings of knowledge, destroy all the accumulated wisdom - and silliness, and creativity, and whatever else humans have thought worthy of writing down.

Dead or alive, Mitch McConnell is on extended medical leave — on your dime. This is the same Mitch McConnell who voted against: paid family and medical leave for everyone else.

a functional political party would make hay with this

CBS claimed “thousands” of 9/11 families wanted Zohran Mamdani banned from the anniversary ceremony. Then a journalist demanded the evidence—and the network quietly rewrote its story. #ZohranMamdani #CBSNews #MediaAccountability

CBS Quietly Erased a Bombshell Claim—Then the Evidence Behind It Began to CollapseA politically explosive claim targeting New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani spread rapidly across the media—and then began unraveling under the weight of one basic question: Where was the evidence? …wp.me

She was Hayao Miyazaki's "right-hand" collaborator from the '70s onward. Her name was Michiyo Yasuda -- the best color designer in animation. Yasuda's eye for color gave Ghibli's work a totally different look. We explore her methods: animationobsessive.substack.com/p/the-artist...

A dark money campaign is offering influencers $1,500 per post to attack Abdul El-Sayed and support Haley Stevens. Same exact dollar figure that was paid to attack @katmabu.bsky.social (Nobody ever found out who was paying for that campaign.) Gross, lazy and above all cynical shit.

Representatives for Taylor Farms called the White House to try to delay a recall tied to one of the largest foodborne illness outbreaks in U.S. history www.wsj.com/health/taylo...

Um. The reason for the recall is that this is from Canada, inspected in Canada, and the US didn't do a re-inspection. The bacon is likely fine. There's no connection to any kind of illness, unless you consider bureaucratic dick measuring an illness.

“Never, ever go near power. Don’t become friends with anyone who has real power. It’s dangerous.” HBD, the great Stanley Kubrick …

Succinct explanation of the difference btw past NYC mayoral administrations (inc De Blasio) and the current mayor. Part of a good thread on lazy press corp. It was just easier and sold more papers to write about how Mamdani was going to do something economically crazy.

Not that I expect any sort of accountability or reflection, but it's pretty clear the political press corps, on the whole, really got Mamdani wrong.
