The Hanging was better the last 2 years. Not so much this year.

Disneyland said MAKE IT BLUE

Doesn't the grimoire connect back to Sarah Marshall?

Everything is possible at Jezebels, if you're commander that is.

Excerpt of a Department of Veterans Affairs Memorandum dated June 15, 2025. It's addressed to the Acting Principal Deputy Under Secretary for Benefits, and the subject is "Amend Presumption for Male Breast Cancer."

One night recently, I got a Signal message

Would I be interested in seeing an internal Trump admin memo?

I said yes (duh). Then, I couldn’t believe what I was looking at.

The memo shows how the VA is making access to health coverage header for just one group:

Male vets w/ breast cancer….

SNAP benefits feed essential needs while still leaving many hungry for more Journalist and author Adam Chandler explains what so much of the conversation about them gets wrong.

As SNAP hangs in the balance for nearly 42 million people, misinformation is rampant. Myths of laziness and fraud persist when we should be talking about too low wages for workers, income inequality, and our threadbare social safety net.

In this guest post, Adam Chandler sorts fact from fiction:

Not there yet. Can we just skip straight to Lunar New Year?

Imma say the quiet part out loud.

White ppl: You are watching a BW in real time hurt. She's using all of her energy to not cry as she discusses this topic. Yt ppl she considered friends betrayed her. The same yt ppl who are supposed to be allies.

Shame.

🚨NEWS: Two federal judges just ruled the Trump Admin MUST use emergency funds to continue providing SNAP benefits during the shutdown.

They tried to use hungry kids as political pawns instead of coming to the table to reopen the government. Shameful.

If you listen to this podcast and sign up for my newsletter, I will personally come to your house and put edibles in your Halloween candy.

I love how Rep. Joe Neguse reframed this question.

In Utah, Trump’s Vision for Homelessness Begins to Take Shape

Under Trump, the draconian future of homelessness policy is coming into focus: mass internment. Utah is building a 16-acre site to detain up to 1,300 homeless people inside locked "accountability centers." This is profoundly alarming.

Vital reporting from @ellenbarry.bsky.social and Jason DeParle:

🚨🚨🚨🚨🚨

Yet another reason why I'm not planning a trip to Florida any time soon.

When multiple students say stuff like “You aren’t going to tell us how many paragraphs our paper has to have or how many pieces of evidence we have to have per paragraph? But that’s how we were trained!” it really shows how algorithms replaced writing well before chatbots.

I hope the same for him.

Trunkless stone legs stand.
Pitiless face sneers from sand.
Ozymandias.

Happy 94th birthday to the incomparable Bob Gurr!

Can you believe it? This guy is 94 years old today!

By “you” I mean most MSM outlets, business leaders, voters who couldn’t be bothered to figure out the actual two sides, those looking for an excuse to vote against Harris, those performing principle by not voting, and everyone who voted for someone they know is vile and racist.

Another Derek Guy history lesson.
With every word, he drops knowledge. @dieworkwear.bsky.social

Neguse: "Does anyone here not believe that with one phone call from Speaker Johnson -- one phone call to the president or the secretary of ag -- that those funds would be released tomorrow? And that families wouldn't go starving by the weekend?"
