I moved to DC in 1997 and it was already just part of the fabric of life, right down to the junks lingo. Felt like they'd been around forever. Still remember when they moved to HFS and it felt like a huge promotion; now they've outlived it by almost two decades.

“the macrodata isn’t matching the anecdata: The unemployment rate was 4.3% in March 2026; in March of 2020, it was 4.4%. Average hourly earnings are stable…. Economists, I’ve found, are quite skeptical that mass joblessness is on the horizon… Cheap coal didn’t lead to less coal being used; it led to coal being used for more things than anyone had previously thought possible”

Antisemitism is an undefeated cheat code: embarrassing gripes (“I hate my dad”, “I can’t get a good job”) are transformed from damning indictments to edgy truth telling
An unintended consequence of its multi-decade taboo…will continue till it’s no longer thrilling to say/hear

Alright I can accept “Can you believe a guy in his 40s can still hoop???” discourse but I have to draw the line at “Can you believe there’s an incredibly hot person in their 40s???”

@JBSDC disney is in a weird state where they just need a 3rd US park somewhere but didnt really have any reason to see it coming in the 2010s then got hit with covid and definitely didnt want to do it
world is very very expensive - mostly because any cheaper and its too crowded to move

I truly think a large chunk of what is making the affluent miserable is the cost of housing and beach/Disney vacations.
We need Disney Abundance - more supply of marquee family vacations.
Michael J. Miraflor@michaelmiraflor
Among my hottest takes are: - Disney adults (esp with no kids) are ruining it for families by inflating the cost of everything. - Disney adults should seek therapy to deal with childhood issues, not more trips to Disneyland. - Disney should not cater to Disney adults. It’s for families. It’s for the kids.

@patdennis Everybody thinks they mean the latter, too many people just conflate it with the former

most people who want a "fighter" mean they want a person whose social media posts express anger and who do viral floor speeches, but when I say i want a fighter i want a cold remorseless tactician who does what it takes and says whatever it takes to make shit happen
Liam P. Donovan@LPDonovan
Moderate tag has the same negative/pejorative/milquetoast connotation on the right even as the GOP has objectively moderated as a matter of policy. (The corollary is that neither side really wants a temperamental or normative moderate, they want a fighter.)

The clearest apostasies from bien pensant liberalism, which makes perfect sense.
Matthew Yglesias@mattyglesias
The best available evidence that I am familiar with says that in pure electoral terms the most potent things for Democrats to moderate on are affirmative action, teacher pay, gender/kids stuff, fossil fuels, and harsher punishment for property crime. nytimes.com/2026/03/16/opi…

@yeselson @jmcconnell53 Just seems to me he has visceral contempt for the NYT and its constituency (and has encouraged his audience to harbor the same disdain) which makes it a very odd fit

@LPDonovan @jmcconnell53 competing with various pundits and influences, some coded as “high end”, some as “low end.” Ezra Klein, Hasan Piker, Joe Rogan, the Fox crew, Rachel Maddow, the Pods guys.

I get why the NYT wants to sit down with Tucker, and why their audience would eat this up. Not at all clear to me what he's looking to get out of it other than an ego boost.
