This is zuck one month after going on Rogan podcast claiming he would never takedown content based on government requests ever again
2021 Republicans: How dare tech companies talk to government about moderating speech!!! We’ll create a whole false narrative about it and take it all the way to the Supreme Court! 2025 Republicans: We run things now so
Loved talking with Charlie. Always will have complicated feelings about the Bird but I continue to see new things (beautiful, terrible) in its history.
very biased but i think this pod with @goldman.blue — one of Twitter's early execs—speedrunning the history of the platform on the occasion of its 20th anniversary is a banger. a lot in here about how what made twitter special is also what has broken so many brains. Highly recommend!
Kids love Bad Bunny. Asked Siri to play Tití Me Preguntó and she legit said “Now playing titty my pregenta” and no one could recover.
Part of a longer rant about Alex Karp, first round hall of fame for motivated reasoning.
Listen to JD Vance when he speaks. He is being very clear when he talks about heritage Americans - and specifically who isn't included. @haitch.bsky.social @goldman.blue
Ben explains why we are no longer in control of when this situation ends. @haitch.bsky.social @goldman.blue
7 year old now asks for us to turn off the music in the car as we pull up to drop off lest he be embarrassed
7yo has his first loose tooth and it’s very exciting. But he already had his grown up teeth popped up behind the loose ones and it looks like staring into a sharks mouth rn
The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.
I am a casual+ World of Warcraft player. Yesterday the “pre patch” for the next big expansion of the game dropped, introducing a bunch of new stuff. One of the biggest changes is the so-called AddOn Apocalypse.
Listening to the Fellowship of the Rings with the kids for the first time. 5yo: “Why is there so much singing?!” Me: “Baby I’ve been wondering that for 40years”
Opening scene of Industry s4e1 starts with a montage set to New Order’s True Faith. Best news of 2026 thus far.
It’s a funny bit of authorial interjection that every character who survives the adventures in Lord of the Rings settles down to write a history or appendix of some sort.
Maybe the FBI will be honest and not cover up, harass witnesses, destroy evidence, and obstruct justice. And maybe my hair will grow back. If the FBI agents do what I think they’re going to do, though, we should know their names, and they should never have another day of peace.
Well, here’s your answer. bsky.app/profile/atru...
The Hobbit film trilogy is kind of mid but Lee Pace as Thranduil is worth it. In this scene he’s really making some choices.
It’s going to get better from here. 2026 is our year; I feel it.
Preview of a future disaster: 7yo: “do cats always land on their feet” Me: “that’s what they say” 7yo: “why” Me: “they’re just good at landing” 7yo: “am I good at landing?” Me: “dude please”
more confirmation that lurking clearly behind this idea of the “heritage american” is a straightforward contempt for the actual history and tradition of this country, such that vermeule has to hallucinate a framework to justify his desire to jettison the clear meaning of the 14th amendment
I had missed this latest delirium by Adrian Vermeule on birthright citizenship 'Common law?! NAH, it's the Roman law of adoption that should govern the interpretation of the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution!' thenewdigest.substack.com/p/immigratio...
It’s wild to me that there’s a senior government official who posts daily about how they don’t like Black & Brown people on social media and it’s not a scandal. It’s just background noise in the overall awfulness of the Trump administration.
Can someone please respond to Stephen Miller with this message from Frank Sinatra?
Imagine watching Sinatra, son of Dolly & Antonini born in Genoa & Sicily, respectively, and Martin, son of Gaetano & Angela, born in Montesilvano, Italy & Ohio respectively, (Angela to parents born in Monasterolo, Italy), and crusading against the value of children of immigrants to the U.S.
Nearly died slipping on slime and should I perish this way I need my death to be politicized. Slime is a terrible gift for children. Terrorists give it as gifts and slime manufactures are the new ISIS.
A government that can officially declare that Jesus is your savior can just as easily declare the opposite.
Here’s the U.S. government being officially religious in a country with no official religion.
This is what happens when you’re an unrepentant asshole your entire career
Chevy Chase admits in his upcoming documentary that he felt ‘hurt’ being excluded from the SNL50 special, especially during the Weekend Update segment.
