Somehow, heartbreak feels good in a place like this
My ice-cold boring take that will definitely not go viral is that a primary result with a margin of victory of roughly 1 percent tells you precisely nothing about The Future Of The Party.
Gary Peter‘s Senate seat is lost because, if Stevens wins, El-Sayed’s voters will stay home because they care more about using “AIPAC“ in every sentence, than they care about women, immigrants and Blacks.
A great day to remember the late great Simon Maloy (H/t to the lovely Betty Bowers)
Douthat leaving the NYT for CBS News and 60 Minutes is like quitting your job for a sweet spot as a cashier at a Spirit Halloween store on Oct 30th
Douthat: These hussies, were they the type who would entice a man to give way to his inner beast and attempt to copulate with them? Ghislaine: Well, they were young and pretty… Douthat: Ughunk! Ghislaine: I’m sorry? Douthat: I just came Director: CUT! New khakis please. Fuck my life…
"They know this is TV, right??" a CBS News senior staffer texted me about this news. "I hate it here," another CBS reporter said.
Oliver Darcy@oliverdarcy.bsky.social · last wk.Scoop: I’m told that Ross Douthat is exiting The NYT and is expected to take a role at “60 Minutes.” News expected to be announced soon.
Excited to hear that Bari Weiss and her cabana boy Nick Bilton have hired a sad pile of cold unseasoned mashed potatoes to the new 60 Minutes team where he will go on about the debate over brown loafers vs cordovans and why most women are, deep-down, just sluts.
When you’re hired as management under a cloud after people are fired without cause, then you act like a thin-skinned lil bitch and whine to your boss because people were mean to you, then MORE people get fired — ghosting the remaining staff for two months is probably not super productive.
Trump was not, in fact, “booed out of Michigan” and YouTube crap like this with big honkin’ yellow letters and multiple !!!’s are deeply and profoundly stupid.
It never ceases to amaze me that the same people who go on and on about the gerontocracy never mention Bernie, who at 84 has zero legislative achievements, but has endorsed shitty people like Platner and Cenk, and elevated idiots like Briahna Joy Gray 35 years in Congress raging against the obvious

The two people who are breaking through the noise and cutting through to the essence of what is happening right now with deeply damaged Donald Trump are Jon Ossoff and Hunter Biden. Here is Hunter's very perceptive take on the messy scene at the White House Correspondents Dinner:
Just throwing this out there: What if a major news org sent a gift, say, off the top of my head, a large hollowed out wooden horse with a reporter stashed inside, to Mitch McConnell’s hospital room? I totally think this would work Your move, NYT. I’ve met Maureen Dowd and she’s kind of tiny
“I refuse to find any joy in life because a bad thing is happening somewhere that I just found out about and now it is my cause until I hear about another bad thing. Please admire me.”
I cannot describe how insanely happy Ripley is when we go to the beach without Rosalia Esperanza Beyoncé (she was at the beauty parlor being made pretty) because it’s just the two of us. Just bounces alongside me looking up with a bright-eyed, ears-up, mouth-open “look at us!” expression.

Bluesky: Undefeated when it comes to someone with a festering grievance showing up to shit on a nice moment.
Just to break it up, here is Rosalita Esperanza Beyoncé (left) and Ripley with their murder toy.
Statement from Annie Farmer on meeting with Todd Blanche: "After meeting with Todd Blanche, I feel even more confident in urging senators to vote against his confirmation as the United States' Attorney General. "I found him abrasive, condescending, and intentionally noncommittal to survivors."
Epstein survivors released this video today urging senators to block the confirmation of Todd Blanche for Attorney General. They’re trying to get to 20,000 signatures on their petition to send a message to the Senate. ujoin.co/campaigns/45...
I don’t think we talk enough about how thoroughly degrading it must be for a grown-ass man to be pulled away from whatever he’s doing to stand silently behind this dumb motherfucker while he babbles away like a three year old toddler who has just seen his first trash truck.
Rian Johnson deletes next Knives Out script and starts again. INT: BACHELOR PAD - NIGHT An elderly man in a kimono shimmies to Gloria Gaynor’s “I Will Survive.” There is a knock at the door, he peeks through lacy curtains. JD and Erika stand in the half-light looking both ways holding a BuzzBall.

Staging a high profile ambulance pick-up and then laying low in a hospital for 3 weeks, only briefly talking to Scott Jennings, is next level planning when you need an alibi after a seemingly healthy Lindsey Graham suddenly dies. I bet Mitch and his lover Erika Kirk worked on this for months
God has a wicked sense of humor. He took Lindsey Graham just five days before the “Heartstopper Forever“ finale is released on Netflix, and now Lindsay will never know how Nick and Charlie deal with separation after Nick heads off to university, because Hell only has basic cable and Paramount +
I‘ve never been to or watched on TV a UFC fight before, but after watching this, I can safely say I’ve seen better and more dignified fights between two sloppy drunk guys after closing time outside of bars for free than whatever the hell this bullshit is.
