The president of the United States thinks asylum-seekers come from mental asylums.

He says it in almost every interview where the topic of migration comes up.

How is this not 25th Amendment territory? How is he not an embarrassment to this entire country?

Promoting the editor-in-chief's personal side project. Zero named sources in a story that promotes the editor-in-chief's personal political position. Misspelling the subject's name. It took one day for CBS News to become a conservative blog.

These guys are claiming Kirk as a nazi.

I'm curious, from the right's perspective, is this unacceptable criticism, of the type that's getting liberals fired from their jobs, or is this honoring his legacy?

It will never not be amazing to me that journalists and other people in positions of public influence willingly stay on a site that is being openly manipulated on every level by one of the worst human beings on Earth.

it's pretty frustrating how republicans can just spew endless lies about city life with zero repercussions but the moment a dem disparages a pickup truck it's open season

Are there any APIs similar to Next’s cacheTags/cachePath in other frameworks?

Seems like it would be pretty trivial to add some CDN cache headers when building pages… I suppose cache busting is where it gets more complicated and CDN specific

Just gave @deno.land a try for some new packages, and it’s fantastic. Everything I’ve been missing from Node, and so much simpler.

My favorite part is that packages are still accessible in non-demo projects, and I don’t have to worry about compiling for compatibility–it’s just part of the platform

Who’s Afraid Of Zohran Mamdani? The mayoral candidate defeated the master plan for the first time ever β€” and that’s prompted an elite panic about who gets to control political outcomes.

NEW from me co-pubbed w/Rolling Stone:

The elite panic about Zohran Mamdani is about him being the first candidate to defeat the oligarchy & its master plan in a nationalized election. They fear they've lost power to determine political outcomes.

It's also why Obama-era Dem elites are panicking.

Imagine if the Democratic Party actually helped Zohran instead of trying to kneecap him at every step. A better party is immediately possible if they stop shoving money into the anti-trans combination Racism Dial/Money Toilet and instead get behind candidates people actually want.

Interesting read. Definitely agree that blogs and simpler sites are often over-engineered.

Curious if the criticisms around performance, accessibility, maintenance and UX are anecdotal or if there are statistics to back them up?

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee:

β€œEither he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

Can’t tell if this is just bad reporting or deliberately misleading.

Others mentioned visiting countries besides Israel, but when @zohrankmamdani.bsky.social said he would stay in NYC (the only correct answer FWIW) a moderator challenged his belief of Israel’s right to exist as a Jewish state.

I’m way into watching tech YouTube for some reason, and I feel like nobody is willing to acknowledge that iPhones haven’t β€œgotten boring,” they are a slightly different version of a very good technology and people like them fine. Your job is boring

As a 6'9" person: no matter how much I complain about height and its negative effects I am honor-bound to fetch things in high places for the littles. This is to be gladly done 100% of the times requested. Talls who do not fetch are rare and awful. Oshacerese just sucks is the problem here.
