Today I was reminded I started the #Wikipedia articles on the words "woke" and "bae". Any other cutting edge slang that needs writing about?

It is tragic that this person was put in a position where she lost her life for no reason other than to serve the vanity of a man determined to establish dominance over a city that hates him

Every time someone jumps on socials and says there is no point to mass protest days and visible reaction in the streets, share this chart with them. The approval ratings are tanking not just because they're doing bad things but also because protestors won't let people forget it either.

The DC shooting story is really getting to me because we literally trained this man as a child soldier for a death squad in a forever war and Stephen Miller et al want to blame it on other cultures? It's our culture, American culture, that killed that woman.

Viola Fletcher, Oldest Survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Dies at 111

As a survivor of the Tulsa Race Massacre, Viola Ford Fletcher bravely shared her story so that we’d never forget this painful part of our history. Michelle and I are grateful for her lifelong work to advance civil rights, and send our love to her family.

Definitely don’t miss the Post.

it is frankly a *scathing* indictment of the White House press corps

How do you land Vanity Fair west coast editor at age 32 after having affairs with two presidential candidates you were covering as a journalist. That is some prime white lady shit.

I saw the Washington Post editorial on redistricting today and this is my official response.

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

I want to see Mamdani win in NYC tomorrow for a lot of reasons, but one of them is absolutely to watch Bill Ackman crash out

During Covid I went wild and read a ton of 1930s sci-fi fanzines, and science fiction fandom has always had a) women and b) men insisting there aren't any women

i mean i don't think you can separate any of this discussion from the fact that so many of the participants are men who clearly have hang-ups about their inability to perform a certain kind of blue collar masculinity

If you are a person who told everyone they were overreacting in 2016, and you have since realized you were wrong, I think you have a valuable role to play right now:

Talk to people who aren't convinced things are *that bad* about why you were wrong and what you wish you had done differently.
