douglas adams was our most accurate futurist
We are at an airport restaurant. A robot just drove up to us with our food, said, "Hi! Here I am!" and then drove away with our food.

Disney Plus has the old Muppet Show episodes and they are so so so good.
What's so amazing about Jim Henson as a puppeteer is that he could literally be explaining that Kermit is made out of felt and ping pong balls and yet Kermit still feels alive the whole time he's doing it

Restore Customs and the Secret Service to the Treasury.
Restore TSA and the Coast Guard to the Dept. of Transportation.
Restore FEMA to its original independent status - hell, make it a whole Department, we're going to need it.
Restore all the small random agencies to Justice.
Be done with it.

shutdowns aren't generally a negotiating strategy—people don't usually get more than they otherwise would have out of a shutdown.
but in this case I think Ds are hearing from the base that they'd rather the thing just be defunded.

Nazi Tattoo guy who hasn't won shit front and center but Mayor of NYC over to the left
A base that has long made pragmatic, sober decisions appears increasingly attracted to charismatic outsiders who promise to break from the party’s failures of the last decade. They see their party’s leaders as feckless and inept.

I’m doing my usual body weight squats while I wait for my luggage. Earphones in. Standing far off to the side, out of the way. A man went out of his way to snag my (wired) headphones so I can hear him say, “you gotta hold that for ten seconds.”
I hope all men like this burn in hell.

the highest and best category of human, in my opinion, is “when stuck on a long flight behind a screaming baby, plays peek-a-boo and makes funny faces to entertain child rather than getting mad or blaming parents.” few elected officials belong in this category but I believe Zohran does
Child at the podium: “A woo woo woo.”
Mamdani: That’s how I felt when we came up with this plan. Together, we will expand the idea of what is possible in our city—and what sounds and noises we can make at a press conference.
