I need funny stupid internet videos. The more vintage the better.

Convos with frustrated journalist friends have convinced me that 500% of news outlet job postings in fact go to internal hires.

My late take is: The Emily Wilson essay is a mix of smart feminist criticism (Charlize indeed had little to do) and comic book store guy energy ("ACTUALLY Sinon was BAD okay?" [huff]).

OK so I know I'm a reporter and I don't get to weigh in. But hear me out. Doxing is pretty hellish. Can we tell people where Iran lives and just send them some nasty messages? Some pizzas? SWATting seems too harsh but hey we can discuss.

So like AI has encountered Terminator and Battlestar, so….we’ve given it *ideas* right?

This is honestly one of the most shocking images coming out of this administration and that’s saying something

“Trump has rejected disaster aid for Democratic-run states at the highest rate in the 47-year history of the Federal Emergency Management Agency.” Right now people in blue states are basically paying federal taxes as if they’re colonized territories of red states. www.politico.com/news/2026/03...

What the fuck?? “While Mr. El-Sayed is fringy and radical, he’s also a Muslim man. Ms. Stevens is a white woman. This puts her at a disadvantage in the identity Olympics that internal Democratic Party politics have become.” www.wsj.com/opinion/free...

Don’t know about you but I watched a tense, upsetting experience (Dunkirk) from the comfort of my own home tonight.
