@NathanCHubbard @taylorswift13 @nytimes @NoahKahan THIS IS MY PERFECT EPISODE!!!

Every Single Album on the @taylorswift13 @nytimes interview, and a full breakdown of the new @NoahKahan album 👇

@jonfavs That’s what I thought when I heard the whole interview. And he said 1 unpaid person did it. I was like, there’s no way it was exhaustive and maybe he’s not releasing it because it is not what he promised. Either way- disqualifying!

Well this certainly raises some questions!

@jonfavs @ElijahCone He’s so bad he seems like a gop plant. They don’t need to win us, we do it ourselves!

@ElijahCone I think it's even funnier that the way to reap a financial windfall in this business is...more Ken Martin interviews

the concept of a "normie dem" being demoralized out of politics by a Ken Martin interview is so, so funny

@NathanCHubbard @taylorswift13 @nytimes Listening to her is like a cool drink of water on a hot day. Love listening to people who are elite in their craft/professional life talk. So interesting to hear their perspective

what it feels like for normal people listening to @taylorswift13 talk about songwriting in the new @nytimes interview

@DylanByers It’s not being desensitized. It’s sanity preservation.

One small state-of-the-culture observation on last night…. Shortly after leaving the Hilton, where a gunman attempted to enter the room in which the President, Vice President, several cabinet members, congressmen, dignitaries, business executives, and hundreds of America’s leading journalists were gathered, I went to a bar with a small group of colleagues to touch base, get our bearings, and, ideally, watch the news coverage. When I lived in Washington a decade ago, bars like this one usually had at least one TV tuned to CNN or Fox News. These TVs were on a hockey game, and no one in the bar seemed aware of what had just taken place mere blocks away. We asked a bartender to change the channel to CNN so we could watch the president’s briefing with captions, which they did. But then, a few minutes later, the bartender said he’d been informed by the manager that the bar had a policy against showing political content, and he’d have to go back to sports. I tried to imagine what this bar might have looked like on March 30, 1981, an hour or so after Hinckley fired shots at Reagan at the very same hotel. I imagine every television would have been on CNN or the wall-to-wall special coverage on the broadcast networks, and that passers by would have come in to watch, as well. The media is giving this the ample coverage it deserves. But it’s unnerving how desensitized so many people have become—to shootings, obviously, but also to political violence and the abnormality of the moment. Maybe I’m wrong, maybe we just picked the wrong bar. But I doubt it. Pew Research recently reported that attention to news in the U.S. has declined across all age groups since 2016, and that young adults (ages 18 to 29) have consistently had the lowest levels. Even as the news itself intensifies—in politics, geopolitics, technology, etc—more and more people seem to be tuning it out. And I suppose this is how you find yourself in a bar in the nation’s capital, an hour after crouching behind a chair as secret service members evacuate the President of the United States from the room, being told that you’ll have to watch Penguins vs. Flyers.

@NathanCHubbard @johnathancwhite @NoahKahan YAAAYYYYYYY! THANK YOU!!!

@johnathancwhite @NoahKahan next week

Following up a unicorn like Stick Season is an impossible ask, but man has @NoahKahan made something worthy

@bengalsgraphic5 I DO!!!!!!🐅🐅🐅

I’m not sure you guys understand what I’m offering here as a FREE giveaway…

@Ike_Saul Because none of these people, with the exception possibly of Rubio, know what the are doing. And he was at a UFC fight instead of in the negotiations. It’s amateur hour and that is finally catching up with them. That is the most benign explanation.

I wrote this on Thursday. Everything that just happened in these "negotiations" seems to affirm it; we're improvising in real time, we're reaching for walls in the darkness, and there is no obvious path to get out.

@Ike_Saul Welcome to the resistance. I hope we survive him.

From the U.S. perspective, I feel similar to how I did in the days after the 2024 presidential debate: Like we had a president who was unfit to serve, and we'd crossed some kind of rubicon where there was no turning back. Trump seems totally unmoored.

It's extremely difficult to get a temp check on the Iranian viewpoint right now because there is a massive information black out. A few weeks ago many seemed supportive of large-scale incursion; many in the diaspora still are. I have no idea what Iranians inside Iran think rn.

@JamesMartinSJ Also we aren’t at the celebration part yet.

But before Easter, Jesus was tortured, brutalized and executed by the state. On the Cross, he united his suffering with all people who suffer, then and now. And after the Resurrection, the Risen Christ completely rejected vengeance or violence. The message of Easter is peace.

@itsmarkmoran @Brewjew308 That is the attitude that got us Trump 2. There are new rules and playing by the old ones makes us suckers. And no one will care about our great ideas if we don’t have power to implement them. Wake up.

@Brewjew308 Why not win with better ideas?

I’m going to say this despite what it will do to me politically - I think the Virginia redistricting is extremely anti-democratic and that it is a reactionary policy to Donald Trump that was created by DC consultants… In 2020, 66% of Virginians voted for bipartisan maps…the new maps slice up Arlington and take away the voice of everyone outside of northern Virginia… In every local democratic committee I’ve been in, when this issue comes up, nobody can defend it, it’s just “well this is what the party says is best.” NO. The Democratic Party loses because of reactionary maneuvers and because it doesn’t have a big bold vision for the future. They say it’s “temporary” but FOUR years of gerrymandering isn’t “temporary” and because I value our constitutional republic over all else… I’ll be voting NO and I encourage everyone else to, but I can’t hold my tongue any longer despite what this will do to me with the Dems in Virginia

@GovernorVA @SpanbergerForVA @NC_Governor LET’S GOOOOOOOOOO

Hey @NC_Governor, seen any good college basketball games lately? #LetsGoVCU 🏀

@eallindi83 @JamesRapien Go out there and show em how it’s done. All of them. 😘

@JamesRapien Don’t worry I’ll show u James.. we’ll see how foolish it is

If Shemar Stewart is Myles Garrett, there is no need at defense end.

Truth!

@dc_dummies Loved Jim Vance, Bob Ryan, George Michael, and of course Doreen. All stars, every one of them. 🩷

People make this “who’s in the DMV” thing so hard. It’s not that difficult. Did you grow up with this amazing gentleman on your tv telling you if you had a snow day? Congrats you’re living in the DMV.

Reminder: NFL policy says we can’t confirm any signings until Wednesday at 4pm. Completely unrelated: how are we feeling after today? GIFs/memes only.

@NathanCHubbard So kind. Love SZA more than ever 🩷

Honestly the show put Cher out there and threw her about three curve balls with no support. She’s 79! The way SZA, Kendrick and the other artists both on stage and afterwards gave her a graceful and respectful off ramp deserves its own award. All class.

@PatMcAfeeShow I am sorry, it sucks to be already in the offseason. Love, a 🐅 fan who would love for Burrow to stay healthy and get a defense for 2026.

Welp.. The Colts are officially out of the playoffs… again

@Nati_Sports Me too. And he has had a lot of serious rehab in his career and just feeling like you’re on top of your game and then you get injured is so demoralizing. Hard to build anything

Listening to Burrow’s Mom say that she never worried about Joe getting hurt until he got to the NFL & cited his knee injury She also reiterated that he loves playing for the Bengals I think he’s going through some personal shit right now & losing isn’t helping

@CincyProblems One of my favorite Chase-isms.

Bills week... BEAT THE BUFFALOS
