Content warning: blood, serious head injury. A woman was run down and trampled and clubbed by LAPD officers on horseback. She appears to be seriously injured and bleeding from the head as an officer drags her limp body along the pavement.

What the hell is wrong you? Why are you sanewashing this idea? Why are you entertaining this? Do you understand how this would ever happen? It would be war. How are you so incredibly stupid and why is the NYT even entertaining idiots like you? Quit your job.

As Bezos learned from Elon and Twitter, it doesn't matter if you tank the value of your media property. The property has much more intangible value in its ability to shape national discourse. Elon destroyed the twitter userbase but gained a presidency. Bezos might tank Wapo, it doesn't matter.

No, @mehdirhasan.bsky.social you have do it asymmetrically. You have to remember these are 2 men with giant but weak egos. From now on, only refer to Musk as "President Musk." Whenever Trump says he's gonna do something, the first question should be, "Have you asked President Musk for permission?"

People like you - who have unwavering faith in norms and institutions - are the reason why we are where we are today. The rule of law no longer applies. A free press that speaks truth to power no longer exists. The oligarchs have won. We're on our own.

They've been trying this strategy for nearly a decade and they've been failing. WaPo will always third place to NYT and WSJ. A more sustainable strategy is to focus on their locality. They should be the #1 source for all news about DC area. It's a shame Politico does what Wapo should be doing.

To everyone who works in the military: Pete Hegseth is going to be confirmed. But you can do something about it! If you're ever in a meeting with him, offer him a drink. "Hello Mr. Secretary sir, long day huh? Let's have a shot of gin." TEMPT HIM! TEMPT HIM! KEEP HIM PLASTERED 24/7

Dude, I'm agreeing with you. People who say "magic needs a cost" are silly. Magic is not governed by the laws of thermodynamics or whatever.

I want to see Pete Hegseth stumbling around drunk all the time, I want to see him on a navel carrier, slurring his words, pressing random buttons. "HUR DURR WHAT DOES THIS DO?" And i want the admiral to say, "Sir that's the room service button. Press and you get peach schnapps."
