The Atlantic sucks so bad

Did you hear what Biden said at Michael Jackson's funeral

His goal is to occupy every single person's mental space every day every minute every second and I'm so goddam sick of it

Hero

Maybe I shouldn't be surprised, but I'm very much enjoying the new Scrubs

I share your depression about this and I would love to interview you about the book on Relationscapes podcast!

We don’t talk enough about how morally depraved the tech industry turned out to be. Every single ounce of their self-regarding statements of values was an outright lie.

AR Moxon comes out in defense of skin cancer!

Don't shun people just because they have different beliefs about blotting out the sun to usher in a new age of eternal darkness. We have to find an answer in the middle.

This is why I make podcast episodes that last an hour or more. Longer form can be great.

Motherfucker, the math that powers your war machine is ARABIC. The woman who enabled the GPS that enables you to rain death on civilians was BLACK. And let’s not EVEN talk about that the sheer number of immigrants and non-western folks who make this country what it is.

Fuck. You.

Buy a home charger ppl

If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.

Thank you, and Spiritual is exactly right!

The entire anti-trans care grift is built in treating the usual way medicine works as if it's a scandal.

Therapists figure out if a kid is trans the same way they figure out if they're depressed. They ask questions, maybe using a formal scale to quantify how kids compare to similar kids.

This episode includes a shout-out to the great @juliusgoat.bsky.social as well. Links to all podcast apps here: pod.link/1693024809/e...

Blair Hodges interviewing Steven Page.

I interviewed a musical hero of mine for the Relationscapes podcast. Steven Page, formerly of Barenaked Ladies, joined me to talk about a song he wrote when he was twenty, all about the harms of restrictive gender roles. If you told my high school self this would happen I wouldn't have believed you.

The kid next to her is everybody

You should write an oped about this

One of my favourite sides of politics/media.

Doctors say that vaccines are the best way to protect children against measles. A guy who eats dogs and snorts cocaine off toilet seats says they should just swim in untreated sewage water instead. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

This skeet is a tour de force

It’s “let’s protect women in sports” until the President mocks a women’s hockey team.

It’s “let’s get the birth rate up” until Tennessee makes abortion punishable by death.

It’s “we’re going after dangerous criminals” until they realize it’s easier to lock up British grannies

Other than the hair thing, agreed

Why do I have to pretend that I'm going to print something in order to save it as a PDF. Why do I have to engage in a little ruse.

My district is poised to elect a Democrat for the first time in over a decade or so.

Restore.

Rax, your writing sings.

I also just levied a tariff on all countries foreign and domestic

The fact that they let him roll for almost a year speaks volumes
