What a great Memorial Day weekend. I was able to brew beer, make some killer pizza, watch the Indianapolis 500 in person, and grill a fantastic steak on my Monday off. There’s a reason for that.

Justin Wolfers has pointed out that most precision manufacturing machines are made in Europe. So just by threatening these tariffs, Trump is undermining his stated goal for all the other tariffs. In case you needed more evidence that he has no idea what the fuck he’s doing.

My grandfather did not fight fascists in North Africa so TV dipshits could misidentify the Sikorsky Blackhawks he went on to build, a solid stalwart of the military, as an Apache!

With the NBA playoffs going on (go @indianapacers.bsky.social !) it’s never a bad choice to revisit this Tim Robinson gem from @saturdaynightlive.bsky.social. And say what you want, but John Tesh’s Roundball Rock slaps! As does this Robinson sketch.

It's a multiple failure of editing; first of the editor in "assigning" the piece to "AI," and second in not knowing enough about what they've "assigned" to understand that the output is bullshit. In a different era, this would have gotten someone fired.

Brilliant idea! Next they’ll invent seatbelts and call them “freedom straps.”

Really says a lot about Republicans that they blocked their own budget bill because it didn’t harm enough people.

“And so the Greeks send me this horse, we’re talking about one of the most beautiful horses you’ve ever seen. So big. So strong. Normally they keep this kind of horse for themselves but they were such big fans they said sir, please take our big wonderful horse we’ll even bring it to your house”

One of the easiest drinks I’ve made in a while: The Horsefeather (recipe via Liquor.com). Ounce and a half of rye, four ounces ginger beer (I used W Mixers ginger beer) and four dashes Angostura bitters. Squeeze a lemon wedge in there and stir.

Honestly a beer glass that refills before you take the last sip is the kind of Sisyphean task I can get behind.

I can't believe we have a Pope from Illinois. People from Chicago usually hate the Cardinals.

How long before the papal encyclical "Ketchup in Calidum Canes Prohibitorum" is issued?

To be effective, our opposition to today's abuses must run alongside a clear picture of what we are actually for - and how everyday life could be better with different leadership.

The Trump family stablecoin surged to 7th largest in the world because of a shady crypto deal with the United Arab Emirates—a foreign government that will give them a crazy amount of money. The Senate shouldn’t pass a crypto bill this week to facilitate this kind of corruption.

I have a lot to say about the resurgent young men / masculinity discourse but for now will confine myself to: I wish I knew how to convince teenage boys/young men is how little of the world actually requires or even invites the hypermisogynist "tough guy" aesthetic

This deserves some good coverage: tariffs giving “cover” for other price hikes that are unrelated to trade.

It is so incredibly bizarre to be teaching about Great Society programs right now, have teenagers be like, Oh! Cool! I loved Sesame Street! Artists can get federal grants? Nice! Ooh - the Clean Air Act! I'm super glad my grandma can have health insurance! and then to do a major "WELL ACTUALLY...." 🤡
