WHAT PLAYBOY GOT RIGHT ABOUT MEN, by Kat Rosenfield (@katrosenfield) Once upon a time, no conversation about ‘Playboy’ magazine was complete without a jab at the oft-repeated claim by certain men to read it for the articles — which was broadly understood to be nonsense, the pretend literacy of the shameless horny liar. But today, on the eve of what would have been the centennial birthday of ‘Playboy’ progenitor Hugh Hefner — and two decades into the era of ubiquitous, hardcore, high-definition internet porn that makes Playboy’s softly lit, artfully posed centrefold look positively quaint, even pre-Raphaelite, by comparison — I must grudgingly admit that the defence of the nudie magazine as literary artefact seems a lot less ridiculous than it once did. Did anyone read ‘Playboy’ just for the articles? Probably not, and yet there was a time, not so long ago, when they plausibly could have. It was a golden era of great tits and great journalism, where lust and literacy still existed in conversation, rather than in conflict. Read more below ⬇️ buff.ly/HIJz7Ia
The cultish sexual wellness group was not exactly wholesome. But the founder’s prosecution and nine-year sentence distorts the law, writes Billy Binion. thefp.com/p/the-unjust-p…
What I find interesting about the Newsoms is that they both relentlessly promote liberal/left ideologies that are corrosive to family formation and undermine traditional values. However, at the same time, they've been in a heterosexual marriage for 20+ years and have 4 children together. By those measures, they are more "trad" in terms of their own lifestyle than most Americans are, even a lot of conservatives aren't married with 4 kids. So what that tells me is the Newsoms KNOW that the traditional family model is the best; that's why they chose it when they both could've chosen anything else. But as elites they still promote insidious ideologies that end up harming the ordinary people who listen to them. It's a perfect illustration of "luxury beliefs."
@KareemRifai @Kasparov63 Tell every Iranian school girl who was murdered on day one of this war that you support their killing because of their government’s use of Shahed drones. 👏🏽👏🏽

I was open to it in the beginning because I am a sucker for “bomb the regime to help the people” even though it essentially never works. But it was clear almost immediately that Trump didn’t even share my “kill until the Iranian people are free” goal. Indeed he had no goals?
Pro-Trump media outlet The Blaze is "in the fetal position" over how much they may have to pay for falsely accusing a Capitol Police officer of being the Jan. 6 pipe bomber. Now they've fired their star reporter over the story. @BulwarkOnline thebulwark.com/p/the-blaze-fi…
The writers of ‘THUNDERBOLTS*’ will write the script for Marvel Studios’ ‘X-MEN’ film. Are you excited? 💭
Cubs playoff odds now 16 percentage points below the Pirates. I talked the Pirates up more than most in the offseason, but that seems a bit of a premature swing.
ADL and @TheAENetwork are deeply concerned by the recent American Association of Geographers (AAG) Annual Meeting, where multiple sessions promoted BDS and featured overwhelmingly one-sided presentations. Promoting exclusionary academic practices contributes to the marginalization of many Jewish members. These issues persist despite prior concerns and signal an erosion of scholarly standards. We call on AAG leadership to take these concerns seriously and to implement meaningful reforms to ensure academic rigor, inclusivity, and respectful dialogue.
