The President of the United States just called for Democratic members of Congress to be executed. "HANG THEM", he posted.
If you're a person of influence in this country and you haven't picked a side, maybe now would be the time to pick a fucking side.

One app, 60 men, 26 dates: my adventures in alt-right dating
There’s no question that we’re living — and looking for love — in contentious times, where extreme political ideologies have all but divided parts of the dating pool. Or have they?

I gotta give it up to the writers tho. If NYC elects a Muslim mayor on the day Dick Cheney died, that is one hell of a slow played story arc. Every time you want to fire 2025's writers room they give you a little narrative resolution as a treat.

Precisely! Lying is a signal of loyalty. The more pitiful the lie, the stronger the signal of loyalty. In the end, this makes one utterly useless & thus disposable. But that's the deal going in.
Interesting piece by Paul Krugman paulkrugman.substack.com/p/a-posting-... He argues that the insane nature of claims about the protests from people like Senators Ted Cruz and Bill Lee is deliberate. Totally debasing themselves to the world shows their loyalty to Donald Trump.

I am sad that this paper isn't what it could be, and that the process of publishing it involved endless cutting, appeals, and a profound lack of transparency. I am also sad that it will probably not be easily findable or picked up by journalists. I think the findings are important.

In the end, the publication of our paper was delayed two months because the journal refused to publish a version of the abstract with our central finding in it, citing word limit, then post-acceptance editing policies, and finally (1) editorial concerns and (2) private comments from reviewers.
