THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

you do not need to wait for jesus to “come back.” dig through the rubble of any bombed out apartment complex, office building or, yes, girls’ school, and you’ll find him there, covered in dust.

christians looking for jesus in every war we start, every missile we fire, every conquering despot we crown, and never in the one place jesus promised he could be found: among the poor, the starving, the oppressed.

Ah, women, women!

Rod Serling is probably the coolest guy of the 20th century. Looked cool, sounded cool, fought Nazis, hated John Wayne, wrote the screenplay for Planet of the Apes. Honestly dunks all the hell over any male influencer guy.

"Why do you want to have a 1970s music pavilion at the Shakespeare festival?"

"It features wine made by the chairman of the Chinese Communist Party!"

"But how does that make it anything to do with Shakespeare?"

"Mao is the vintner of our disco tent!"

It actually kicks ass how much the people who run this site hate the people who use it. Just constant seething meltdowns over having to put up with a bunch of artists, furries, and trans people instead of crypto-hustlers and AI guys making Linkedin-tier posts. I'm glad they're miserable, frankly

ICE detains reporter Estefany Rodríguez in Nashville - Nashville Banner Reporter Estefany Rodríguez, detained by ICE with no arrest warrant, may face deportation. Her attorneys seek immediate review of the legality of her case.

They’ve already sent her to Louisiana.

One of the more depressing aspects of the GLP-1 stuff right now is how utterly inescapable it is. Whatever you're doing, wherever you are, there are people shrinking at alarming rates, and endless discussion of said shrinking. There's seemingly no place to just *rest.*

I recently saw a new doctor who, before saying anything else, asked if I'd considered a GLP-1. "It might help take care of this," she said, and reached over and patted my belly.

It was behavior I hadn't experienced in years--the last huge wave being during the popularization of weight loss surgery.

It's in the tabloids, with hand-wringing about the sudden thinness of some celebrities. It's in the news, with a refreshed and emboldened judgment aimed at people who aren't shrinking. It's in podcasts & thinkpieces, where we use other people's bodies as props to make our own points about shrinking.

It's everywhere on TV: cooking shows are hosted by chefs that get thinner by the day. Awards shows that have ALWAYS centered thinness now showcase emaciation. Reality TV stars make plotlines of massive weight loss, or attribute their sudden 100+ pound weight loss to lifestyle changes.
