I hope screenwriters are finishing their scripts, there are so many powerful stories to put on screen, and time of the essence

I am biased but I don’t think there is a better website on the internet today than TheOnion.com.

Finally watched The Brutalist last night.
What an extraordinary film: epic, exquisite, immersive.
Loved it.

Listening to this press conference it seems clear that Trump is mentally gone and that his team is consolidating power for President J.D. Vance.

It's so bananas that America is now a full-on banana republic, except you can't grow bananas and there's a tariff on imported bananas.

Colbert will be all right, maybe even better off. The world's his oyster and I'm sure MSNBC and Netflix will come calling. He could stand up the biggest late night YouTube channel in days. But they are just torching the Late Show, an institution, solely to appease a dictator. And that fucking sucks.

They’ll never accept it, but everyone who cast a vote for Donald Trump did real, generations-long damage to the United States and the west in exchange for essentially nothing of value.

There’s a wildfire outside Media veterans are demanding their names be removed from Outside Magazine's masthead. How did we get here?

Really good, predictably infuriating rundown of what happened to Outside Magazine. It's a pretty familiar story of media biz/VC fuckery, told comprehensively and well, by the membership-funded site that is already taking Outside's place. escapecollective.com/theres-a-wil...

The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy. The stock market is not the economy.

Nonetheless, holy shit.

What’s remarkable is that there’s hardly any real news driving this. It’s just investors belatedly realizing that Trump is who he is, and always was.

It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.

When the fire starts to burn, every good person better be ready to man a post with a bucket of water if you want to stop it from raging out of control.
