Raskin tears Kristi Noem a new one: "Apparently when your blankie was left on one of the govt jets and not transported to the new one, your special govt employee, Corey Lewandowski, chivalrously stepped forward to fight the pilot -- mid air!"

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

I've said it once, I'll say it a million times. When the world is shitty and the news is filled with people cheering on murder, spread kindness and love like the world depends on it, because it does.

Tell your members of Congress: Vote YES on the Khanna-Massie War Powers Resolution and end President Trump’s unconstitutional and unauthorized use of military force against Iran.

Florida man starts war with Iran to distract from his involvement in Epstein files and DECADES of sexual predation out of the news cycle is the most Florida sh*t ever. This timeline should be served in a pink plastic mug & consumed wearing a Sloppy Joe’s t-shirt with a sunburn.

β€œMassive” war launched by a man with no plan. Again. Donald Trump is repeating George W. Bush's catastrophic mistakes.

Trump appears to be winging it, letting loose the dogs of war and then seeing what the hell happens.

Oh hey I just realized a side effect of attacking Iran is raising oil prices for all of Trump's allies including Russia, potentially giving them new finances to continue the war with Ukraine.

An animated image of the Wikipedia mascot character Baby Globe. It is a white globe with an open top with large, cute eyes and stubby blue arms and legs. Baby Globe is wearing an orange birthday party hat on the side.

It reaches inside itself and pulls out yellow and pink confetti while doing a blushing smile.

How far back in time can you understand English? An experiment in language change

If you liked this experiment, I published a full piece today in the same vein: a text that gets 100 years older with every section, from a modern blog post to a medieval chronicle.

It's a single story spanning 1000 years of English. See how far you get.
