They’re wearing masks so they can’t be prosecuted later. As long as they think they can’t be prosecuted, their crimes will intensify. They will torture, starve and kill, as they have already, on greater and greater scale.

They should invent a California where you can afford to live

Hell yeah

The key thing to watch here: they fired a Wired political reporter. That’s the title doing the most effective, pointed work. Teen Vogue’s stuff was culturally impactful, but less focused on investigating the administration. Within the Condé portfolio, Wired and the New Yorker are the canaries.

Dr Oz talking about obesity, diabetes and dementia while Trump is slumped over like a man minutes from death is supremely funny content

Gov. Kathy Hochul, under a palm tree in Puerto Rico, is greeted with chants of “tax the rich” when she enters. “I hear you,” she says, adding that she’s the type of person who: “The more you push me, the less I’m going to do what you want.”

What is she…a child?

You’re an elected official — get over it.

I’m so done with Tinder, Bumble, Hinge, all the apps. Not wasting my time anymore. I think the best thing to do now if I really want to meet someone is to commit a string of highly publicized and notorious crimes, get sentenced to life without parole and just wait for the letters to pour in.

Dave Portnoy threatens to pull Barstool from NYC over ‘Communist’ Zohran Mamdani’s win: ‘Hate the guy’ Portnoy made the comments during a livestream on YouTube last week as it became clear that Mamdani would win the mayoral race.

my new mayor getting sexual predators off the streets on day 1 i KNOW thats right

anyone else think this whole Dick Cheney death narrative is a little... off? ex-VPs just don't suddenly die. I have questions and so should you.

It's almost as if letting the ultra-rich own the entire mainstream press and also all the big social platforms had a downside.

today i emailed the fire department to ask if i could arrange to bring my kid to the station for his birthday and they were like "yeah just ring the doorbell and ask if they have time to show you the fire engine." i guess it never occurred to me we could just show up and demand to see a fire truck

Ask any of your favorite Black women writers from a decade ago why their bylines stopped appearing, and you’ll likely hear the same response: There is no place for us in media. In TV. In publishing or academia. For the majority of us, there’s no place but gone.

it's 2026. mayor mamdani has declared reverse footloose. we all must dance

If you've stopped masking in public for whatever reason, now is a really good time to start again

It’s not ever about the numbers—you can bring insane audience engagement, views, eyeballs to your verticals, shape the conversation in wonderful ways, win awards and on and on

And they still will nuke your job and your entire desk in the name of capital consolidation and kissing the fucking ring

We are being ruled by absolute losers
