Hey so marching into a predominantly Jewish neighborhood and leading with a chant saying “we support Hamas” is a disgusting and antisemitic thing to do. Pretty basic!

RT @jm_mcgrath: Statistically this was certain to happen over some timeline. Policy changes have predictable outcomes.

When @dfriedman33 discovered a Goodreads page tied to the email of a top Pentagon official featuring books on “Asian wife sharing," he did what any reporter would do: ask the Pentagon questions. The next day, a threatening email from Jack Posobiec arrived. motherjones.com/politics/2025/…

@thebenchesclear Bring back the Polo Grounds

wouldn't change a thing about the mets and their cultural ties to queens but sometimes i wish new york still had a major league ballpark in the middle of manhattan. can you imagine going to a game with that skyline looming overhead

RT @ENBrown: What’s so annoying is save for like 10 minutes around 2014, it was clear this would be the case. The whole time some conservat…

the left side is the town that abolished property tax; the right side is the town that did not

a weird take i've kind of been tumbling over the gravel in my head is that, to an extent, progressivism has made the world less diverse and less interesting. it feels like we used to celebrate other cultures and civilizations more, but this got labelled as exoticism and now-

if your standard for transit improvements/projects is "if there's literally any local opposition, we won't do it" then you simply won't do anything

What happens in Jeju, I literally only know about it in this exact context

@Miyhnea What’s the best thing to read about the period?

The more I read, the more I dislike the cliche of "sleepwalking" into WW1. People wanted it and believed in it, they hated the other side as evil incarnate. The cataclysm at the end destroying the old order also wasn't less ideological than the new one that'd explode in WW2

If this is even remotely accurate, Elon Musk and Donald Trump have killed more people in several months than the Iraq war killed in a decade

The stock market is down 1.37%, not up 10%, since Trump took office. The price of gas is up 2.6%, not down 20%. Consumer confidence is lower than it was at any point in 2023 or 2024. Just baffling that a U.S. senator goes on Twitter to tell obvious, easily checkable lies.

right now, if I import the parts to make a computer, I pay a massive tariff, but if I import the fully assembled computer, I get no tariff. truly a genius plan to reshore manufacturing

It's not really about it of course, but I loved that Glass Onion didn't hide that it was happening during the pandemic and incorporated it into the plot
