Do you remember Betty Reid Soskin? She was the oldest serving National Park Ranger in the United States, we celebrated her retirement at the age of 100.

Betty Reid Soskin (1921–2025) passed away on Sunday, but she lived an extraordinary life.

Regarding Reiner, I have known a lot of musicians and been in bands myself. I can’t overstate the importance of This Is Spinal Tap in adjusting the self-importance of musicians. Everyone knows the movie, everyone has identified Spinal Tap moments, everyone is humbler and funnier as a result.

Jones: Everything you hear from Tuberville is framed as a sports analogy. When you view everything that way, you’re always stuck in an us-versus-them, winners-versus-losers mentality. That’s how he operates.

But the fact that communities across Alabama are suffering is not a game.

What a profoundly nasty person

(also we seem to move ever closer to a reproduction of Orwell's description of Winston Smith's trip to the cinema, as the audience cheered images of people killed in the water "then there was a wonderful shot of a child’s arm going up up up right up into the air")
Megyn Kelly on alleged war crimes: "I really do kind of not only wanna see them killed in the water, whether they're on the boat or in the water, but I'd really like to see them suffer. I would like Trump and Hegseth to make it last a long time so they lose a limb and bleed out."
