“Epstein is the story. But he is also a stand-in for every closed maternity ward in a rural county, for every mom choosing between insulin and groceries, and for every veteran battling the Department of Veterans Affairs while Silicon Valley billionaires buy senators.”
The weather dude on TV last night said it's going to be 99 degrees today. I'm demanding that he be fired and replace with another dude that will forecast a high of 82.
Am I doing this right?
So... He's in the Epstein files?
Yup we recently cancelled Paramount+ so subscribed to PBS for 2x what we were spending with Paramount. Thinking we will likely axe 1 or 2 more services in the near future and 2x those to PBS as well!
Love thy neighbor doesn’t come with fine print.
Just took 2x the money we were spending on our Paramount+ monthly subscription and donated that monthly to PBS.org for streaming access to all of PBS's amazing programming anywhere we are. A few more streaming services on the block soon = more for PBS. Might I suggest you doing the same?
Wonder how sexual predator Brett Kavanaugh and sexual predator Clarence Thomas will vote on the fate of sexual predator Ghislaine Maxwell.
“.. Within about three minutes of the crash, the Model S uploaded a “collision snapshot”—video, CAN‑bus streams, EDR data, etc.—to Tesla’s servers .. The vehicle then deleted its local copy, resulting in Tesla being the only entity having access.”

Question for Mike Flood: With $450 million being allocated to Alligator Alcatraz, and ICE burning through $8.4 million a day to illegally detain people—How much does it cost for fascism? How much do the tax payers have to pay for a fascist country?
The idea that President can negotiate/dictate bilateral “deals” by using the full force of the federal government to punish and humiliate his perceived enemies goes against the whole idea of the rule of law. That should be the story, rather than normalizing this authoritarian behavior.
Of *course* they are doing this. Slavery’s not something they’re ashamed of. They would bronze a gd lynching tree. Knuckle-dragging Jim Crow mfs.
Some differences between my father and DJT:
- My father was not a rapist.
- My father was not a racist.
- My father worked hard and was honest.
- My father worked his way out of poverty.
- When my father became demented in his final years, nobody at @nytimes.com wrote headlines sane-washing him.

Today is #HiroshimaDay, marking 80 years since the devastating atomic bombing. My song Paper Cranes documents an emotional visit to the peace museum and an encounter with a survivor. Today and every Aug 6, I’ll donate any profits to a Hibakusha charity. sitenonsite.bandcamp.com/album/hirosh...
I'm angry all the time these days, but it's actually unfathomable to me that one person has the power to halt scientific progress, doing *generational* damage. For literally all of our sakes, someone needs to do something. Get this man out of the government.
it has been said over and over but it’s worth reiterating in the face of this horrifying decision: RFK is quite literally joining the war on cancer on the side of cancer

Narrator: Sadly though, SCOTUS has now exempted the president from the founders’ intent to criminalize bribery.
email to me: Our disabled son has CP and bladder spasms so urologist is recommending Botox treatments and we read your article and are concerned about the presence of mRNA in the Botox. Is mRNA in all brands? How can we know if it is in there? Is there a safe brand you recommend? He has to have this so what do we do? Thanks
my reply: personally, i'd recommend you follow the advice of your doctor. but what do i know, i'm just a random person you emailed. I have no more formal education around botox than the author Naomi Wolf, whose advice I assume you were actually seeking. but since you emailed me, my suggestion is that you listen to your kid's urologist, who is a trained medical professional, rather than seeking out medical advice from someone with an english degree and a history of making significant errors in her research. best of luck!
a specific skill I've developed over the past ~20 years is crafting responses to emails sent to me, but intended for that other Naomi Wolf
Reboot Anthony Bourdain’s “No Reservations” but with Alan Dershowitz and the whole show is just enjoying him never getting food because he’s a querulous, joyless douche and he’s constantly demanding that the Laotian street vendor or whoever denounce Hamas before he’ll try the khao jee
What if instead of weird one-off extortion schemes the government just collected meaningful and stable amounts of corporate tax revenue hmmm www.nytimes.com/2025/08/10/t...
