CELEBRATE, OH MY FRIENDS!!! MY COUSIN HAS ADOPTED A BLACK KITTEN WHO SHOWED UP IN HER BALTIMORE BACK YARD AND HAS NAMED HIM AUGUSTUS!! Look at this elegant paw.
Received a text from my father: "Yep again. She fell," followed by an Xray of a wrist. I suppose it was technically successful communication, since I was able to infer that "she" was probably my mother and that the wrist in question was probably broken, but 0 points added for style and execution.
And let’s be clear—this information is out there because we took the Trump administration to court. This fall, we can elect a Congress that will follow the Constitution’s call to be a check on a lawless President.

If I could meet anyone in comics I think it would be Peter Gallagher from the current Heathcliff newspaper comics. They are utterly inscrutable to me. He is a surrealist. I must know his mind

They should have a Compost/Soil Conditioner category at the fair, with ribbons & everything. Teach the 4H kids some soil science, give the nerdier farm kids something to do with the manure from their siblings’ animals

I was a historian of the atomic bomb decision from 1989-95 and coauthored an 800+ page book on the politics behind the decision. I’ve seen a lot of documentaries, but this is new to me. There were 78 people who survived underneath the explosion. This is how some of them survived. One is still alive.

Thread about how Lee Child promoted his series to his fans at cons by hiring multiple actors to portray Reacher! This has actually made me more interested in the whole thing by like 25%.
Stephen Blackmoore@stephenblackmoore.com · 20h agoWhite, black, Asian. Because in the books the only thing you really know about Jack Reacher is that he’s big and good looking.
When you put a bear on your state flag, you have given the bears legal right of way for anything they want. This is legally sound.

I don't care whether or not Brad Pitt is drinking again and whether it's at healthy, moderate levels or not. The only reason we started talking about his drinking was because he assaulted his wife and his child, and he's done very little to demonstrate improvement or remorse about that.
I know I missed posting for #InternationalCatDay last week 😭 but while I was offline I did visit Pillow Cat Books, an “animal-themed bookshop” in NYC. With bonus shop cat! 🐱 #ShopCats

1. If you do this at my house, you will be quickly uninvited from the dinner party with extreme prejudice. 2. Not only is this going to be used to harass and stalk women, it's also going to be used by creeps to make compilations of other people's children.

Re reporters saying Karoline is super normal off camera: I'll never forget the time I was on television with an anti-immigration think tank person. She lied like she breathed on air. Afterward, I said, you know none of that is true, right? She smiled and said something like, that's not the point.
A King County Superior Court judge in Washington state has found that Kalshi’s trick of calling itself a “prediction market” doesn’t make it not gambling under the Washington Gambling Act, and has therefore ordered Kalshi to stop almost all activity within the state. Read more here:
