Bagels are good for when you want to spread stuff on bread but you also want a little challenge

A website listing "Top states in Australia" followed by the eight states and territories

Damn, this list must have taken some compiling

Yep. Grandstanding by them, obviously.

Yep, it’s the standout on the player and phenomenon. It came before the last decade of his life, so doesn’t cover that.

Sunny afternoon in Lisbon, cabby with the window down blaring The Neverending Story

Four Seasons day remains my favourite day to have been a person on the internet

Dr Seuss looking mfer

I look forward to those million people making good on their promise to flee New York City

These are the most pathetic losers in existence

Why would Eric Adams agree to a Ziwe interview?? Oh, she is going to eat that man alive

Absolutely not. Teenagers live in the world that they’re about to inherit, they care about it more deeply than plenty of adults, they’re disproportionately affected by policy, and they have a right and a need to be informed rather than patronised

And like, it shouldn’t be *Teen Vogue’s* job to be the organ of record for rising fascism! It’s cool that they did it but them doing it solo is like leaving the defence of Portland to that one frog

Major media has been hostilely occupied en masse, leaving only scraps

You’ve shown such consistent strength through this long and shitty situation, well done. I hope some measure of peace is heading your way.

Legit, for the past couple of years Teen Vogue has been one of the very few remaining major titles to publish political commentary that clearly addressed the American cultural descent into madness. Invaluable for young readers, filing a gulf. No wonder it’s being squashed

I like to imagine that quote being yelled by a guy with a top hat and moustache who is shaking his fist at my departing cloud of dust

A fine piece of writing, John.

In my experience, Louvre windows were always fucken easy to break in

The thing is, we forgot we were men. We thought we were gods. And that was our downfall

“La police!”

If I were reading Nixonland in a bar I’d be pretty annoyed if someone interrupted

Just quietly, I’m tipping that if a tattoo parlour in Croatia casually had a totenkopf on the wall for you to choose, they probably had some other shit on the wall too that would be a giveaway

Especially in proportional terms by lower earning people, who spend all of their income, versus higher earning people who spend very little of it

and like, if the GOP candidate dropping out would mean votes for Cuomo, that means Cuomo is a GOP candidate

I remember in Independence Day when the White House blew up, the whole cinema cheered, but now that it’s being done by a senile criminal with a bulldozer it doesn’t seem so cathartic

It’s blatant racism *and* classism, saying that any migrant who hasn’t become rich can be viewed as a drain on society to be excised. And this is a formal policy pitch from a group that wants to claim it could form government!

£39k is a high salary in the UK! Most urban professionals who I know in London are earning less than this, even the ones who are racially acceptable to the Tories

Even if you set aside the racial supremacism driving this, it’s insane in economic terms. Most people who claim unemployment benefits use that support on their way to becoming business owners or salaried taxpayers who collectively contribute far more than the initial cost. Investment, not expense.
