Great investigative work by @wsj.com exposing White House desire to release Russia from sanctions, somehow

Surprise! The “peace plan” is really just a plan for Trump, Witkoff, Don Junior and their friends to get rich.

Everything is a grift. (And the Hunter hunters are silent)

“All Bari Weiss is doing in this excerpt is inventing cable news. She’s describing Crossfire. Cable news is built on the premise that it is a stage for people of rival beliefs and parties to shout at one another”

And: She thinks Dersh and an NRA kook are “charismatic. She means “enraging clickbait”

The bursts of anger are more extreme and frequent. He’s constantly calling reporters stupid these days. FTD

Great 20min documentary about early days of the amazing Minn hardcore band Husker Du.

Grant Norton‘s (bass) Midwest nice mom invited stranger Bob Mould for Thanksgiving. The three jammed in the basement.

Am giving thanks today for Mrs Norton changing musical history

UK regulator is spot on: “there seem to be “successive cycles of regulatory tightening — usually in response to a financial crisis — which were followed by periods of relaxation as *memories fade* and economic priorities change . . . until the next crisis”.

A awful look for OpenAI. Presumably they’re worried if they settle one, others will seek settlement. But they would get demolished in a jury trial: imagine a cleaned-up Sam Altman in front of a jury, some of whom are parents.

Wonder if the tort concept of an “attractive nuisance” is useful here?

While work-life balance may give you a sense of happiness and fulfillment, it isn’t always realistic, says Walmart executive vice president and chief people officer Donna Morris.
Walmart exec: ‘I’ve never believed in the term work-life balance’—this is the mantra that made her highly successful instead
Many professionals see work-life balance as a non-negotiable. Walmart CPO Donna Morris says people should practice work-life integration instead. Here's why.

This is so extremely stupid, reacting as if a single Afghan shooter updates the probability for all Afghans.

AFAIK in schizophrenia Sz research this is called “jumping to conclusions bias” and is associated with Sz

Nuzzi was monstrous. She honeypotted Trump w a young female, committing a 3rd degree felony by recording w/o consent

“She sent Izzy inside Trump’s FL
compound with a recorder in her bag, which rolled as Izzy drew Trump, taking campaign meetings with the likes of Matt Gaetz, Susie Wiles, and others”

While there are often some ethical issues with making free PDFs of paywalled content, in this case it seems entirely justifiable, given the author, the subject, and the journalistic imperative to provide the widest possible audience for the verb "Michael Wolffed"

Of the roughly 2.4m farmworkers who help feed our nation, at least half are undoc. Meatpacking plants similarly rely on foreign-born labor, w/immigrants making up nearly 40% of meat processing workers. “Our Thanksgiving celebrations simply couldn’t happen without their labor and contributions.”

From delicious side dishes like green beans and corn, to main courses like turkey with gravy or roasted ham, to desserts like pumpkin pie served with a healthy dollop of whipped cream, these essential workers labored in fields, orchards, dairy farms, and factories to feed us 👇🏽

on top of everything else, nuzzi has the sensibilities of your most embarrassing friend. a guy alternates between saying he wants her to have his children and ghosting her, and she's wringing her hands trying to figure out if they're really in love
The spring and summer of 2024 were busy for Olivia. Bobby was telling her he loved her and wanted to impregnate her, but he was also deeply confusing—he flipped back and forth between passionate engagement and total ghosting—and she was struggling to understand him.
