This is basically that scene from The Office where Michael Scott decides to declare bankruptcy so he just gets up on a chair and screams, “I DECLARE BANKRUPTCY!”

Anyone have eyes on Bret Stephens

I may have the worst ear infection of my adult life, but that hasn’t stopped me doing my Melania impression and saying “Hooyah, Navy” to myself fifteen times a day. I am committed to the bit!

Are we sure he’s not actually going to invade Columbia university

Living in Madison means having no fewer than five people say they like your shirt when you’re at the Kwik Trip to get some dunkers

Finally some good SCOTUS news 🙏

My love for Rubenstein is my most mainstream musical take but I will fight anyone who slanders my little Artek to the grave

Ugh all I want in life right now is to be wandering around Park Łazienki in Warsaw while listening to Rubenstein play Chopin’s Preludes and somehow, unfortunately, I am here in the United States tonight.

FWIW, I will not let any campus administrators forget!

🤌🏻🤌🏻

As an Italian American, I feel it’s my responsibility to say that I do, in fact, condemn Andrew Cuomo

Curtis Sliwa saying “I believe all parades have the right to exist” has got to be one of the top five funniest things a politician has ever said

Can’t believe despite all my 30 Rock rewatches I somehow missed this scene

Samuel Alito preparing to raise absolutely the craziest flag you've ever seen at his Long Beach Island compound.

You're absolutely right — starting a land war in Asia wasn't just a bad call, it's 𝗼𝗻𝗲 𝗼𝗳 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗶𝗰 𝗯𝗹𝘂𝗻𝗱𝗲𝗿𝘀. Thank you for calling me out on that — really. I'll be extra-strategic from now on.

Would you like me to get cracking on those 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗻𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗺𝗮𝗿𝗰𝗵 𝗼𝗻 𝗠𝗼𝘀𝗰𝗼𝘄 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗗𝗲𝗰𝗲𝗺𝗯𝗲𝗿?

The Supreme Court Case That Could Hand the House to Republicans

white reactionaries disenfranchising black voters to secure political power? that’s a jim crow. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/15/u...

CIA coups in Latin America, growing civic unrest, and an increasingly likely economic crisis? Hey, babe, wake up, the 1970s are on!

I need my own Nadezhda von Meck

My retired neighbor, Gail, is a spitfire who hates Trump but whose back problems mean she can’t protest this Saturday, so instead she invited me over this morning to make signs with her (and use her very impressive and extensive craft collection).

Musician playing ‘Ghostbusters’ outside ICE facility is arrested by agents ‘Taking us citizens out of state to detain them without charge is a new action from the Feds and should be opposed,’ her band said

A musician, Oriana Korol, was peacefully playing clarinet with her protest band outside ICE facilities in Portland, OR.

When the band started playing “Ghostbusters,” ICE thugs suddenly poured outside, slammed her into the mud, arrested her and took her to a jail 9 miles away in Vancouver, WA.

There is no conceivable argument that these ships, even if we assume they were carrying narcotics, could not be dealt with in some other way. I think we can just drop the caveats and say: This is mass murder.

US kills 6 people in strike on boat accused of carrying drugs near Venezuela, Trump says President Donald Trump says the U.S. has struck another boat accused of carrying drugs in the waters off Venezuela.

"The United States struck another small boat accused of carrying drugs in the waters off Venezuela, killing six people...It’s the fifth deadly strike in the Caribbean"

again, merely political consequences for wanton murder aren't enough.

WISCONSIN PRIDE, BABY

Inside the Improbable, Audacious and (So Far) Unstoppable Rise of Zohran Mamdani

we’ll see how his mayoral tenure shakes out but i am convinced that Mamdani has the juice. not just the charisma to win an election but the temperament to govern and the measured pragmatism of someone who genuinely believes what they’re saying and wants to accomplish real things.

The crisis I had when I moved from Upstate New York—where grocery stores are basically legally required to have 20 varieties of apples at all times—to Florida, where there were two options: red and green 😑

Brett Kavanaugh learning about this:

federal agents stealing children and sending them south. where have i heard about that before?

a key thing about vought — and all of these guys — is that they have a totally top down and hierarchical vision of the world. they believe that the cultural changes they hate can be turned off by destroying the federal government because they can’t imagine that they emerged bottom-up in society
