Important keychain advancement
Perfect for us tbh bc the vast majority of our commutes are less than 25 miles round trip but I sometimes need to do 100 mile work trips without the time to charge en route
She got the balance right in The Mandibles imo
Plot: nice liberal mom with three childless kids signs up with a program to resettle migrants in homes. She lets in a helpful Honduran woman who finagles to keep letting Hondurans into the house until they take it over, steal the mom’s property and money, wash their feet in her sous vide container
They all said I was a FOOL for buying a plug-in hybrid when gas prices were low last year.
Actually, nobody said that. But I’m going to pretend they did to burnish my ego.
It’s so good on stuff like the Devil’s Scenario and then she’ll, like, skip over how we have Aegis missiles
Most accurate portrait of modern culture currently available
Shriver is an increasingly important anti-woke author (started a decade ago but there’s bigger ecosystem for her now). She’s getting more Ayn-Randy, with more long monologues laying out the perspectives and data (like a dinner party scene where the hosts info-dumps about racial birthrates)
I said “okay man I get it” out loud after the yo-yos returned
Wow, a new TWILIGHT ZONE host
Last week’s books. Disappointed by The Score, impulse bought it after reading a good interview w author. Shriver book is The Camp of the Saints in Flatbush, Nuclear War is outstanding even if (like me) you’re bored with apocalypse stories
Oops! Looks like "Chicago Progressive Partnership" (the supposedly separate super PAC running this attack ad) just outed themselves and confirmed the speculation that it's the same group (AIPAC) behind the pro-Fine/anti-Biss super PAC "Elect Chicago Women" aka: ECW

Let's check in on the leading candidates to replace Marjorie Taylor Greene in tomorrow's primary.
Not at the ones with the DAVE BANNED FOR LIFE signs (they use an old photo on the poster so don't always recognize me)
Yeah I first learned of her by watching "Wild Rose" on a plane and going "wow she's amazing!" Happy for success just didn't love her breakout movie
Will the world keep turning if "Hamnet" wins best adapted screenplay, or if Rose Byrne loses the Oscar? Maybe. But why take the chance?
Congrats to new Bluesky CEO @jamellebouie.net
I'm a white dude with a cop mustache who usually wears blazers and slacks; have definitely used this privilege to walk into a hotel I'm not staying at and use wifi/men's room w nobody asking Qs.
But stealing from the supermarket? foh
Take pity on those of us who think Buckley's great, have watched entire movies ("Men") bc she's such a compelling presence, and were kinda bored by "Hamnet" (3/5 stars)
bezos bought a prestigious national investigative newspaper so he could gut it and run "consider setting a monthly budget" and "pay off your credit cards" tier financial advice columns like those blogs with adsense spots on all 4 corners of the screen
I mean this only half jokingly but pretty much any country could just ship oil to Cuba right now and the US really couldn't do anything could it

I can’t do this anymore

Last 2 weeks of reads/listens - been slipping a bit now that I am thick of primary coverage but driving in Dallas traffic gave me a lot of Audible time
