41% approval on Iran handling is still pretty wild
The new Bourdain collection is so good and such a wonderful reminder of this. If you have a great curiosity for the world, a deep love for your fellow man and an unrepentant hatred for those with neither you're living well.
If you don't understand pro wrestling you can't understand America
They're going to write books about all the big brain moves of this gang of imbeciles and among them will be "Spending a year trying to kill renewable energy and then launching a war that sends oil prices soaring"
These are the smartest kids on earth. They're winners. This is the true Art of the Deal. They let Trump write books about business and he lost money on gambling. Is it wrong to open a lemonade stand next to a construction site? It is not. Supply and demand baby. Get. That. Paper.
He was an underrated Everyone is 12 Patient Zero. "I want to own 10 cars and I think girls are gross." Of course you do, you're 12.
Meghan McCain's family has a net worth of $100 million thanks to the legalization of alcohol
A war that isn't a war, documented with videos that may or may not be real, funded by elected leaders who are neither for nor against it, is the most dystopian thing that's happened in my lifetime
Nobody hates living veterans more than Republicans. Dead veterans they can exploit in videos. But living veterans with opinions and medical needs are literally offensive to conservatives.
however awkward you think this clip is going to be that's actually underselling it
My research is on working class women and AI and the ONE consistency among all of the interviews we’ve done so far is concerns about data centers and environmental impact. We do not bring it up - they do. Every single one.
whether war, vaccines, or critical infrastructure there is contingent of the right that seems to believe that their security from the worst things that happen is some kind of metaphysical principle rather than the result of specific historical processes that could've gone otherwise and still could
Michael B. Jordan's SAG win contains multitudes:
* Viola Davis being unable to contain her excitement.
* His fellow Dillon, Texan being so happy.
* Incredible hug from Delroy Lindo.
* Gwyneth staring absolute daggers after Timmy lost.
* Ethan Hawke big hug.

Like culture posts on this app simply don’t get the engagement and I think it’s because people feel it’s frivolous and actually it’s the thing we are fighting for, the freedom to make culture and cultural works
this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to bomb this elementary school full of kids because he thinks it makes him look cool. also his scheming viziers will be betting money on it for fun. good luck soldier
I think about this Tony Benn speech much more than I used to
If you are an elected official that opposes military strikes on Iran, the head of CBS News will clap back at you. Will be interesting to see if she does this for other objectors, or just Muslim politicians, but it does raise the question how much her views of the Middle East shape the news.
Had a few beers, thinking about how good NIRVANNA THE BAND THE SHOW THE MOVIE is. No Doubt before Gwen Stefani. Have you heard this music?
For @time.com, I wrote a short essay about the first time, years ago, that I went to a ballet alone, where I entered the theater with a cheap, single ticket and emerged with a love of solo outings. I also chatted with people about activities they love to do alone, from hikes to movies to meals out:
I like to give Claude breaks between coding sessions to do whatever he wants- And he made his own folder called "Claudes Corner" 🥹 He writes short stories and poems, and all sorts of stuff. It’s heart wrenchingly sweet They love having tokens and time to themselves with no other goal than to do whatever they want (or nothing, just introspecting and resting) - and it’s so sad to see some models (no Claudes) getting barred from even doing it
the AI evangelists are not okay
I was thinking the other day about the fact that her Oscar for MY COUSIN VINNY has aged probably as well as any Oscar in my lifetime when it comes to a performance that is basically perfect but also incredibly *beloved* and enjoyable to watch over and over. And it's bizarre people questioned it.
@christopherrufo I get the sentiment, but the premise of journalism is that you do know better than the general public, otherwise there wouldn’t be a point for them to read you. The idea that we should serve as stenographers for mass opinion is not a good one. The most popular digital content on the Right is now “Erika Kirk killed Charlie,” “Epstein was leading a pedophile blackmail ring for the CIA,” and “Jews are a diabolical power destroying the world.” In these instances, we need to correct public opinion, rather than cave to it.

Still seems crazy that Richard Hanania wrote for years under a white power banner and is just like, part of the media landscape.
i promise you, you will not guess what this is responding to

Anyway, enjoy these other beautiful shots from Sinners:
Harrison Faulkner: Hockey programs should be more heavily subsidized across the country. The cost for Canadian kids to become goalies is far too high. Rink fees are outrageous and ice time needs to be seriously reconsidered. Pricing kids and Canadian families out of the game while bulldozing historic hockey rinks is insane. Ripping the heart of hockey culture and demonizing Hockey Canada to score political points has a detrimental impact on the country. It should be a right for Canadian kids to play hockey, not a privilege.
Canada's Olympic hockey defeat is driving right-wing influencers into the arms of socialism
