i absolutely do not agree with recording strangers in public and allowing the internet to doxx them and ruin their lives. that being said, i do find the CEO/HR lady cheating drama very funny, because i am a bad person. two things can be true

Dr. Oz Brings Carrot Cake to Fox Businessโ€ฆ to Tell Medicaid Recipients Not to Eat Carrot Cake?? โ€œI was jokingly calling this the MAHA Medi-cake,โ€ Dr. Oz said. โ€œI couldnโ€™t find a healthy cake, so I brought the closest thing.โ€ What?

My favorite part of this interview was when Varney asks Dr. Oz if 11 million people will lose their health insurance, and Oz says no, because "the numbers are often offered by economists who look at numbers." He then adds, "This is really a psychology question." OK!

How Ballet Is Fighting for Dancer Pregnancy Rights โ€œWeโ€™re told we should do it โ€˜for the love of the art form,โ€™ but we still have bills to pay and families to raise.โ€

For the past year, I've been talking to dancers fighting for better workplace protections for pregnancy and parenting. It's a fight experts say is "unprecedented" due to long-standing cultural and structural challenges within ballet. And it's being led by artists themselves.

Out now for ELLE:

Kristi Noem Accidentally Low-Key Suggested That Trump Might Be to Blame for Deadly Texas Flooding While insisting this wasn't Trumpโ€™s fault, Noem blamed previous administrations forย failing to update NOAAโ€™s โ€œancientโ€ systemsโ€”which would include Trumpโ€™s first term, no?

Also in this lil blog: Gutting the NOAA was part of Project 2025 (shocker) because Russell Vought said the agency is responsible for "climate alarmism."

I Didn't Think Authoritarian Rule Came With This Much Secondhand Embarrassment If North Korea's military parades are, let's say, the Rolls-Royce of a dictator's flex of unchecked power, then Trump's attempt on Saturday was more like a kid's tricycle from Shein.

If Iโ€™m George Washington, Iโ€™m not just rolling over in my grave, Iโ€™m rolling into a new one so my corpse can rest without having โ€œGeorge Washington: the guy who started the nation that eventually became the laughingstock of the worldโ€ above my head for all eternity.
