The white house, a gaping wound in the east wing. It looks like a ruin or a mound of garbage

No image has ever spoken so succinctly about the current situation in the US.

Tár on a Plane (2026)
Disgraced conductor Lydia Tár is returning from a concert series in the Philippines when her plane is hijacked by anti-Mahler terrorists. Now, equipped with her conductor's baton and awful personality, she must tackle her problems and retake control

From Fox News a few minutes ago: “And now, breaking, we go live to the Broadview ICE facility in Illinois, where protesters have gathered. They are now taunting ICE officers…”

So serious question: what charges will Stephen Miller and his other handlers far for doing this?

Not leaning heavier into “these guys are weird” was a huge mistake.

nothing these guys are mad about is comprehensible to a normal human being

A Nazi nuclear physicist in a wheelchair is a timeless archetype.

Only the best work earns subway scroll pause.

A poast so perfect I had to stop scrolling between subway stations to wait for service to repoast. Bravo.

i just got back from Antifa headquarters.

they're making an INSANE new set of demands.

first, the radical left is saying, "no money shall be drawn from the treasury, but in consequence of appropriations made by law."

BRING BACK THE ORIGINAL POST!

Command and Control (book) - Wikipedia

This is amazing! The incredible book Command and Control, by Eric Schlosser, has a gripping narrative and analysis of the 1980 Damascus explosion. I had no idea you could go behind-the-scenes in a real deal Titan 2 silo. So cool! But leave your wrench at home. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command...

I really think the whole "campaign" is about 95% grievance creation for his base. They absolutely thrive off of saying everyone is treating him unfairly or is holding him back. He may genuinely want the prize, but everyone around him knows it's absurd and just want another grievance to sell.

Jimmy Kimmel winning the Peace Prize would be hilarious.

The following is REAL footage from Portland, 2025. Viewer discretion is advised.

Awesome! This will be perfect subway reading.

Compared to John Stockton and Jeff Hornacek, NBA player Michael Jordan could seem boring on the court. It took time for me to appreciate his 10 scoring titles and six NBA Finals MVP Awards.

Wasps and most Cathies are on the same side here! The Pope and that Presby minister they shot with pepper balls are standing shoulder to shoulder! It’s the megachurch crowd (who are not really Wasps) and the weirdo tradcath converts v mainline protties and Da Pope.

Bennies v shoobies!

You could keep dividing up the regions further and further (eg, the Catskills west of the Hudson are very different than the New England-influenced regions east of the Hudson). But this newer version is actually a really good middle ground, at least in the areas I am familiar with.

Gonna be thinking about this lede for a minute.

Here’s video of the incident

These guys are so vulnerable to defecting to Chicago

This is the plan - just dissuade enough people from showing up in swing states to tip elections. Hence the simultaneous attack on vote by mail.

So weird to fly past the French Riviera, the Dolomites, Puglia, the Dalmatian coast of Croatia, a bunch of Greek Islands, and Istanbul, so that you can vacation in an air conditioned high rise managed by a brutal authoritarian super.

In addition to his love of Nazi stuff, I guess this guy made a big deal about being a “race car driver,” but this is hilarious…

The decision is running around freely inside law and reality, in fact possibly constrained by the bounds or law and reality, but within that law and reality, apparently not tied down to anything else.

“The American military needs to abandon rules of engagement entirely and adopt a brutal warrior ethos! At the same time, Robert E. Lee was a true gentleman, and only lost because Grant was a bloodthirsty butcher who was willing to keep fighting—even when it meant killing.”

I know this is an old thread, but I just saw it and I will tell you the same thing I told my wife when we were at LLB - YES ABSOLUTELY BUY THE PINK FISH SWEATER!!

I also just listened to Andreesen on Douthat’s show!
