“How did feel when you made that catch?” is just the straight male equivalent of, “What are you wearing?”

Meh. It’s not politics or life or death. He got the rules to an exhibition tournament wrong. What does leaving that up accomplish but to embarrass him?

Yesterday, Jeffrey Epstein's former account testified, under oath, that the Epstein Estate paid a settlement to one of the women accusing Donald Trump of raping her as a minor, AFTER Epstein had died.

This would end any other President instantly. But the press doesn't care.

When White House aides are leaking furiously to the media about how all this isn’t their fault if only someone had listened to them is that usually a sign that insiders are confident the policy is going well

the Hitch-Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy quote I think of most often these days is, “What do you mean, why’s it got to be built? It’s a bypass. You’ve got to build bypasses.”

Any connection to certain modern technologies is purely coincidental, and mostly harmless.

The Epstein files are missing the timeline between 1999-2002. What could the DOJ be hiding? Odd indeed.

Ted Lieu: “A foreign hacker likely has the Epstein Files — the best way to prevent blackmail of government officials, such as Trump & Howard Lutnick, would be for AG Pam Bondi to stop the cover up & release all the Epstein Files as required by law”

This administration is committing Watergate level crimes multiple times per week—and those are the ones we know about. It’s crazy to think about what else will come out after.

It’s absolutely essential these criminals are held responsible for their crimes. We must end elite impunity.

Murphy: "Literally in my other ear I'm listening to Ted Cruz on another network explain why this mission is so essential to destroy the nuclear program. I may have to walk over there and tell him the admin is now briefing that getting rid of the nuclear program has nothing to do with this mission."

At a women in STEM event today, someone bemoaned the lack of women doing computer science. At tea, a young women who had left the AI/tech world told me this: “it’s just full of men lying about how good they are & constantly competing”. Just maybe the problem is with tech culture & not the women… 🤔

Fox News was on at the gym over the weekend and the chyron said "WOKE MAPPING" to refer to gerrymandering and honestly I've gotta hand it to them, it's been rattling around in my head like Beat It for 48 hours.

Sen. Jack Reed, D-R.I., the ranking member of the Senate Armed Services Committee, walks to a closed door briefing on the Iran war before the Senate Armed Services Committee at the Capitol Tuesday, March 10, 2026, in Washington.

Senate Dems letter to Trump: “We request Rubio & Hegseth immediately appear under oath - in public hearings - to answer questions the American ppl have about the goals, scope, & end game of this war — explain your actions to the American ppl whose sons & daughters are on the front lines of this war”

I dislike living in this kind of interesting times.

I would rather live in the part where the arc of the moral universe is bending toward justice. I hope we can get on with that again soon.

IRAN, IF YOU'RE LISTENING, WE EXPECT YOU TO PICK UP ALL MINES YOU HAVE PROBABLY NOT PLACED BUT MAYBE HAVE. ONCE YOU TELL US THE HORMOOSE STRAIT IS CLEAR OF MINES, WE WILL TRUST YOU, AND IF YOU'RE LYING WE WILL KNOW BECAUSE MINES ARE KNOWN TO BE VERY EASY TO SEE. SO EASY. WILL SEND JARED TO INSPECT.

Chris Murphy: "I Just came from a two hour, closed door classified briefing on the war. It just confirmed to me it's totally incoherent. We are not gonna be able to achieve any of our stated objectives ... this is a disaster of epic proportions, a 10 day debacle"
