The last few months of Trump's presidency have been like that episode of Futurama where Bender becomes human and dies, but nobody realizes it because his corpse keeps letting off spurts of gas that make it seem like he's talking
Trump: We’re going to make the American Dream a word that—two words that you didn’t have. Remember when Biden said it’s all about three words: The American Dream. You don’t ever want to get in that situation.

The Epstein emails are full of powerful people colluding to protect the most heinous behavior. They're also pretty pathetic at times — as when Epstein was complaining about the cost of hiring someone to do SEO to COVER UP RUNNING A PEDOPHILE RING.

New from me: The same tactics marketers use to get you to find their toothbrushes or photography business on Google were also used by Jeffrey Epstein & co. to try to launder his reputation online. SEO to try to cover up the most infamous pedophile ring.

Today, Paste Magazine shuttered all its non-music verticals, a choice I am both professionally and personally heartbroken about. Sadly, I am once again looking for a place that wants to let me write about Books and TV on the regular, so hit me up if that’s you or anyone you know.

Just in the past 3 days, I happened to speak to an academic, a US politician and a former Biden official who had all received death threats and severe harassment from the MAGA movement. It's now a common experience. I am sorry MTG has to live through the same thing, but she can't be surprised
MTG: “.. “I am now being contacted by private security firms with warnings for my safety as a hot bed of threats against me are being fueled and egged on by the most powerful man in the world. .. The man I supported and helped get elected.”

The new Running Man has its issues and def feels like the next phase of Hollywood's plan to turn Powell into the next Tom Cruise. But it's good, dumb fun that knows how silly it is. My review:
The Running Man is a propulsive tribute to ’80s action movies

The new movie stays much more true to Stephen King’s original novel.

Trump's already reworked the WH press pool to be more favorable to him, but now's the time to dog any reporters who aren't flat out pressing the administration about these new emails
"House Democrats on Wednesday released emails in which Jeffrey Epstein wrote that President Trump had “spent hours at my house” with one of Epstein’s victims, among other messages that suggested that the convicted sex offender believed Mr. Trump knew more about his abuse than he has acknowledged."
