Screenshot of update from NYTimes.com about the NYC mayor's race: "Based on the current (preliminary) numbers, even if Curtis Sliwa had dropped out of the race, as Cuomo and Trump so desperately wanted, and Cuomo had won all of his votes, Cuomo still would not have beaten Mamdani."

Dodgers fans right now:
Kent Brockman and Homer Simpson in Moe's Bar. Homer is tearing off his Springfield Atoms gear in disgust. "They lost? Those losers!" Brockman tells him, "No, no, no, the game's not over."

When it's going great:
You’re telling me about the feelings of Joe Biden, blah, blah, blah, but Joe Biden is out of the picture. He’s out of the picture. Yeah, he sure is. He’s out of the picture now and we lost. This is what you wrote your book about. I am not bringing this up randomly.

Brutal.
So you have no concern, even to this day, that Joe Biden could serve as President through January, 2029? I did not see anything that would’ve given me concern. But you watched TV like the rest of us, right?

Probably the most beautiful description of a deep-fried tortilla bowl I have ever read.
I made stacks and stacks of those chimichanga bowls by dropping the flour tortilla into the deep fryer, where it would float and sizzle on the surface for a moment like a lily pad on a pond. Then, with a deep ten-ounce ladle, I pushed down in the center, and the tortilla came up around the bowl like the long dress and underskirts of a Victorian woman who had fallen, fully clothed, into a lake, her skirts billowing up around her heavy sinking body. By Gabrielle Hamilton, from Blood, Bones, and Butter: The Inadvertent Education of a Reluctant Chef
