Guess what happens when you have to dial 9 for an outside line AND happen to be in the 919 area code?

The real question is how shooting someone in Reno Nevada gets you locked up in the California State Penitentiary in Folsom.

If you are betting on individual pitches in MLB, you are either a cheater or a degenerate gambler.

The issue here is that anything other than Democratic support for the House CR would force Johnson to call the House back into session, seat Grijalva, and risk having the Epstein process move forward.

That’s orange.

Maybe we should encourage people to substitute paracetamol?

one of the reasons voters believe the caricatures of the democratic party pushed by republicans is because the democratic party itself believes in the caricatures of the democratic party pushed by republicans

Donald Trump appeared to describe a dementia screening he underwent at Walter Reed Medical Center as a 'very hard' IQ test while speaking with reporters inside Air Force One

The NY Times and WaPo may be lost causes but holy shite look at PEOPLE out here absolutely killing it with 100% unvarnished truths 🌟

Yeah. It seems to me the lesson is that New York State shouldn’t secede from the US and set up its own distinct currency.

The Celtics probably fit better into the “evil” brand, and would lead to Laker hate.

Atlantic headline notification: National Guard deployments are an expensive and inefficient way to curb crime, and undermine Trump's goal of reducing spending, Marc Novicoff argues.

Making assumptions about Trump’s goals that have no basis in reality.

Happy Yankees Elimination Day to all who celebrate

Eventually You're Going to Have to Stand for Something On accepting the fascist offer and being better than Ezra.

I wrote about why the regrettable conclusions of Ezra Klein pissed me off so badly in the last couple weeks.

On moral cowardice in an era that calls for clarity, and a popular political instinct to try to solve divisions of abuse by ignoring causes. www.the-reframe.com/eventually-y...

If they’re going to break the law and put Trump’s face on the currency, can they at least put him on a bill?

Do you know how hard it is to wipe your ass with a coin?

Like tattoos?

Related: Barack Obama would be tolerated until he did or said anything that a white president wouldn’t have done or said. Skip Gates, a son of his would have looked like Trayvon, hell, even the tan suit: those are what drove them crazy.

Ever try using the oven? Got the idea from Serious Eats and it works wonderfully.

There’s a fundamental failure of logic here. There is no world in which we get a Dem majority in Congress with members who insist on excluding LGBTQ+ people from otherwise generally available programs (which would be the FDR equivalent).

Say hi to folks for me!

I feel like discovery could be fun.

One less Nazi is always a good thing.

If I’ve been getting them for years, do I need to sign up again?

Maybe it depends on whether you met the ex through a peer group (and continued interaction is inevitable) or via an app, at a bar, etc. (where each half of the ex-couple has a separate peer group, and continued interaction would have to be deliberately sought out)?

Bluesky reminds me of Mamdani—the identity of the haters makes a pretty strong endorsement.

Isn’t the vast majority of violent crime STATE crime?

Honestly, a browser that simply didn’t implement notifications would be pretty attractive.

Exactly! There’s no misogynist equivalent to the dream of a “white homeland”—it’s not about separation or perceived “purity” but about wanting/ demanding a particular kind of behavior.

Now this is a classic NYT euphemistic write-around:

The problem is that you can not give an award, but you can’t really not have a mayor/ governor/ representative/ etc. unless you establish well in advance who does the job or wields the power in the event of a vacancy.
