I am convinced nobody has made a quality chair in 10 years. They are built to break now. CHAIR COMPANY IS A FUCKING DOCUMENTARY I SPENT 6 MONTHS LOOKING FOR A GOOD CHAIR AND I COULDNT FIND ONE

@thenation.com turned its website over to stories from #Gaza and dropped their paywall and this one really gutted me. Continuing to witness this genocide is so painful and so important. #NotInMyName #NeverAgainForAnyone

lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · 49m I was just laid off by The Washington Post in the middle of a warzone. I have no words. I'm devastated. Quote lizzie johnson @lizziejohnsonnn · Jan 25 Waking up without power, heat, or running water. (Again.) But the work here in Kyiv continues. Warming up in the car, writing in pencil — pen ink freezes — by headlamp.

INBOX: Washington Post Ukraine Correspondent Lizzie Johnson announces that she has been laid off in the middle of a below-freezing war zone without power, heat, or running water.

I personally do not think some rich man should be able to buy an institution like this like a toy and then break it when he doesn’t want to play with it anymore. bsky.app/profile/benm...

ICE agent wearing skull mask that is usually associated with the neo Nazi atomwaffen group

Fucking surreal that people dressed like this and carrying assault rifles are permitted to kidnap people off our streets

They’re starting to focus group their bullsh*t.
“Masks need to come off” must have scored high.

hunter biden is just a simple man with a dangerous hobby. I'll take him over the average Harvard economics professor any day

The Democrats!

Sorry, folks, but you can't love your Jewish friends if you don't also love pedophilia. I don't make the rules.

A Day for Gaza Today, The Nation is turning over its website exclusively to stories from Gaza and its people. This is why.

Media coverage of Gaza has plummeted. So today on @thenation.com, we're doing something pretty special: we're only running pieces by people in and from Gaza.

We're calling it "A Day for Gaza." You can find links to all of the incredible pieces here. Please read! www.thenation.com/article/worl...

New Trump admin slogan just dropped

Actual lefty wins a congressional seat in a bright red district because the Dem Party didn’t think it was winnable and run a corrupt dud instead.

Here’s Wayne’s cover version of The Clash’s ‘Jail Guitar Doors’; The 1st verse was a nod to Wayne🫡

“Let me tell you 'bout Wayne and his deals of cocaine
A little more every day
Hold for a friend till the band do well
Then the D.E.A. locked him away”

Let's check in on the Twitter Files guy -- who insisted that the behind the scenes decision-making on content moderation was the most important issue of our time -- and see what he thinks about the publication of communications involving the most notorious sex predator of our generation.

multiple trump-created crises converging with deadly results.

I thought for sure this was an old quote. He said this statement this morning.

Bari Weiss attended a fundraiser last night in NYC, attendee tells me. There was an auction item for dinner with her and wife Nellie Bowles. Several people cheered in approval, many others said after how gross it was. Bari shouted out “And you can make out with Nellie!” It ultimately sold for $55k.

The Epstein emails should really end the debate over whether society should have billionaires. "Do you want there to be a class of people so powerful they can fuck your kids and no one will even try to do anything" seems like an easy sell if everyone in politics wasn't trying to get on their payroll

Catherine O’Hara was an all timer.
I met here a few times and she was sweet, warm and of course hilarious.
We’ve lost one of the great comedic actors of all time.

Respectfully,

Reform and retrain!

Absolutely surreal to continue to hear about drawdowns and lowered temperatures and things calming down in Minneapolis when, as far as I can tell, literally nothing has changed on the ground

every epstein file drop underscores how elite power operates through shared socio-economic networks, regardless of people's ideological differences, populist posturing, or public feuds

Oh I'll just knock out one of these Oscar shorts before I go to bed

All The Empty Rooms: 😭😭😭

Elon Musk emailing Jeffrey Epstein in 2013: "Actually, I could fly back on the 3rd. We will be in St Bart's. When should we head to your island on the 2nd?"

well then

I introduced a friend to The Chair Company. After he finished the first season he left me a text cursing at me for introducing him to such a bizarre show … and asked me to recommend more shows like it to him.

On May 13, 1985 in Philadelphia, the Pennsylvania State Police dropped a bomb from a helicopter onto a Black neighborhood.

11 people were killed, 5 of whom were children.

As we see ICE terrorize communities, understand that saying “this isn’t who we are” is false.

The cruelty is big business
