Question for Greenblatt’s ADL: What does it say about your politics if they are so indefensible you need a billionaire sex criminal to silence your critics? What does it say about you that you would cheer the aforementioned billionaire sex criminal as some kind of personal hero? Moral rot.

Recorded with Randall Dunn, 'Manifestations in the Shadow of an Uncertain Land' turns years of political fatigue into what Lowe calls a "multiphonic landscape of horror." The talk runs from Jodorowsky to low-pass gates, through his nine years in Om. Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe's Inner-Ear Illusions:

Robert Aiki Aubrey Lowe's Inner-Ear Illusions

Recorded with Randall Dunn, 'Manifestations in the Shadow of an Uncertain Land' turns several years of political fatigue into what Lowe calls a "multiphonic landscape of horror," and the conversation runs from Jodorowsky to low-pass gates by way of his nine years in Om.

Out of concerns about antisemitism, I’m joining my friend Robert Kraft in banning Israel critic Macklemore from my stadium. Here’s a link for Kanye West tickets at that same stadium. by Jerry Jones

I mean.... do people know that Bob Kraft is an AIPAC megadonor, raises funds for the IDF, and has even set up the organization Touchdown for Israel, where NFL players are given free, highly conscripted trips to see “the holy land"? Suffice it to say, the West Bank and Gaza are not on the tour.

i don’t wanna distract from anyone having a go at Ed Sheeran today, but never forget Patriots owner Robert Kraft paid USD to purveyors of sex trafficking and wants to whitewash said humiliation with millions spent on “stand up to hate” PSA’s (unless it’s hating on Palestinians, in which case go on)

She adds, "But Republicans have made it a big attack on you," which is a telling statement. Stated simply: We don't find it newsworthy either, but it's our job to use talking points from one side and parrot them back to the other side. If not, we'll be accused of bias. (Also, my boss is Bari Weiss)

Abdul El-Sayed: "Weijia, with all due respect, this is the third time you've asked about a Twitch streamer ... their whole game is to make us fight culture wars so that we don't pay attention to the fact the president has made $2.2 billion ... "

given how Americans typically view differences within our own species, there's something profoundly grim about being told we'll have to find some measure of patience and tolerance for (ahem) these alternatives

"One more thing Miss Barlow... you were about 14 in 2001, and you grew up in the UK, so why did they dismiss your school at noon on 9/11, when the attacks would have happened around 2 pm your time? I just don't understand how the school knew the attacks would be happening later"

A helpful key here for understanding what wingnuttery is and how it works, here. I 100% guarantee you this did not happen and that the boys she’s talking about - she later clarified they were “Pakistani” - do not exist. And yet, I can also assure you Eve is *absolutely convinced* she saw this.

Eve Barlow @Eve_Barlow X.com On 9/11, school was dismissed at noon. My mother came to collect me because the school bus wasn't running. We went home and watched the television all day and all night. The next day I returned to school. Everyone was sad except a certain group of young boys in the corner of my form class. They were celebrating like it was the greatest day of their lives. I will never forget.

I am in the Sunday Blog Chair at Defector today, which means I have the distinct honor of writing about one of the dumbest college football games I have seen in a minute: defector.com/a-loss-would...

A Loss Would Have Been Less Embarrassing Than Michigan's Win Over Western Michigan | Defector

Even before it slipped into janky comedy in its dying moments, you wouldn’t necessarily say that Michigan’s season opener against Western Michigan on Saturday was “a good football game.” But also just...

NEW: Nate Hochman was fired from the DeSantis campaign in 2023 after promoting a video with the Sonnenrad, a Nazi symbol embraced by white supremacists. He now works in Rubio's State Department, as deputy director of policy planning and chief speechwriter. Gift link: www.nytimes.com/2026/09/06/u...

The hiring of Nate Hochman, who lost his job amid an uproar over a video containing a Nazi symbol, underscores the administration’s willingness to overlook past transgressions.

starting to get the impression the Bachelor of Science in Economics diploma means as much as a World's Greatest Dad coffee mug (though it's unlikely DJT would see the latter outside of a Marshall's)
