Well, in his defence, this is terrible news for him.

This sets a precedent by which the Pentagon can also bar journalists who publish quotes from Hegseth that “make him sound like a deranged asshole.”

The “Trump shoes” thing has been fun, but I feel like we’re approaching a point at which Tarantino himself would say “Maybe that’s enough pictures of feet on the timeline.”

Whe I heard the news this morning, my first thought was that this was at least a floor crossing that couldn’t be taken as an indictment of Poilievre’s leadership or lack thereof. And if he had simply not issued a statement (well, tweet) like this, that’s how it might have played out.

I’m grateful today for an adventure in town with my youngest, grateful for terrible music that makes my kids laugh, and grateful for long-lost socks. #3Gratitudes

Yesterday’s run. A quick morning trek around a small English island. 0.1 km walking after 2.70 km, quick pace. #runTO

So I guess we’re going to have to have a talk about that.

“Are we friends?” my youngest asked their cousin over video games.

“We’re cousins,” he said.

“Yeah, but cousins can be friends.”

“That’s true. We’re friendly.“

They played on in silence, happy with this new agreement.

“Except in America,” my youngest mused, “where your cousin is your wife.”

It’s certainly true that whenever these guys talk about strength and freedom and bravery or whatever, we can all say “Yeah, but you cowards were all too afraid to wear your own shoes.”

Couldn't believe no one had picked NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD in almost 11 years of the podcast, but maybe it was waiting for Jon all along. Don't miss this episode.

Stephen King: “I love him. It’s his face and sometimes the way his eyes turn up to mine that makes me feel as if things are really okay. It’s a lie, of course - things are not okay and never have been - but my kid makes me believe the lie.”

Ford has never been one to let a little negativity get in the way of a terrible idea.

I’ve found that the best way to avoid taking a question like “Who did you vote for?” personally is to never vote for anyone who I’d be ashamed to admit that I’d voted for.

“Inadvertently airing video from an older dignified transfer” sounds like a big deal, but it’s not as big a deal as “intentionally airing video of Trump not wearing a baseball cap to a dignified transfer to conceal the fact that that’s what he wore to this one,” which is what actually happened here.

a lot of Americans who voted for Trump will be very uncomfortable being held publicly accountable for their votes while everyone else suffers and there are going to be so many white tears about it

What’s especially unusual about this is that the CPC convention occurred right in the heart of that big dip in their polling.

All I know is that if I were an American tourist, and I had voted for Harris, then “I voted for Harris” would be the first thing I said whenever I walked into a room.
