NEWS: The Trump administration confirmed it bombed a girl’s school in Iran.
It's one of the most devastating military errors in decades.
Trump lied about it. Pete Hegseth gutted the office preventing civilian casualties.
175 are dead. Most were kids. Hegseth should be fired.
Yesterday Trump's Advisors said Iran didn't have the capacity to start laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz. Today Iran started laying mines in the Strait of Hormuz. www.cnn.com/2026/03/10/p...
The voice that won over Ira Glass hasn't changed much since 1992. It's more subdued than it was in riotously funny essays like "Me Talk Pretty One Day," but the wry wisecracking, the deliberate bitchiness — those qualities are still in evidence. Still, in "Cash and Carry," when Sedaris critiques the phrasing on a homeless man's cardboard sign ("It should be 'Help one of the homeless,' I wanted to tell him. Otherwise it sounds like you’re going to take whatever you collect and distribute it to other people in need."), I sympathize with the guy's response that he hopes Sedaris burns in hell. His essays often derive their humor from catty, judgmental moments like that one, and so it's notable that this is the first time I can remember reading one and being firmly on the other person's side. The tone may not have changed, but Sedaris's positioning inarguably has. The very bitchiness which once made his voice feel so fresh has become a commonplace in humor writing; writers from Tina Fey to Samantha Irby have surpassed him in their own fluent versions of it. Watching him uphold it now with such determination feels like watching your dad try to squeeze into the leisure suit he last wore in 1971. Sedaris spent so many years assuring us he was an incurious curmudgeon that he seems to have talked himself into becoming one, at least on the page.

Doesn't matter. I would argue that putting a struggle artist on an Academy Award nominated Black actress is racism.

NEW: Before the Iran War, Trump ignored warnings that Iran could retaliate across the region and stop oil shipments. Now, with energy markets in chaos, some aides are pessimistic about the lack of a strategy to end the war. But they haven't told Trump. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/03/10/u...
Is this intentionally racist or just someone that isn’t great at drawing accurate faces?
One day the NYT's editors will read these stories again and be ashamed of themselves. Mamdani called the attack "heinous," "criminal," "reprehensible," "terrorism," and "the antithesis of who we are." The insinuation that he's conflicted about this is disgraceful. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/09/n...

X post: Apparently, The New Yorker ran a story with an illustration of Wunmi Mosaku that was obviously not intended to represent her well, so I redid it real quick in a similar style. Took 15 minutes & a love of Black women ❤️
i feel like i’ve been trying to warn about anti-blackness & racism at The New Yorker for years now but sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words…

This disgusting shit doesn’t belong in American society.
And Republicans who support it don’t belong in Congress.

Analysis of a significant shift in the queer media landscape. The US brand them has been sold by Conde Nast to Equalpride, publisher of brands like Out, The Advocate, and Pride.com. The purchase comes amid a significant number of job cuts within Equalpride, including The Advocate and Pride.com's editors-in-chief, as well as multiple managers and staff writers across the organisation's magazine portfolios. The CEO said cuts were being made amid dwindling advertising revenue.
It also means, amid wider cuts at Conde Nast, there's few if any Trans+ staffers left across the organisation's publications.
One, they wanted the content.
Two, they wanted to get rid of women and Black people.
Three, they wanted to install loyalists.
Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.
