Dinner & cocktail parties used to be: "Have you heard about George & Linda running off together? etc. Now it's pretty much exclusively: "Have you heard what the Orange One said yesterday?" "Have you heard about what Harvard said back?" "They're cutting funding for WHAT?!?!" I miss gossip.

2025 Correspondent's Dinner without Amber Ruffin is like bread without yeast. Or water. Salt. Sweetener. Olive oil. All that's left is unappetizing white, dry flour.

How many? Who? And when? I'm seeing oblique references to ICE raids and deportations. I am not seeing any media that is specifically answering the above questions. Does anyone else know? Shouldn't we all know?

Social movements are more likely to have success when three factors are present: elite conflict, shifting public opinion, and elite blunders. Mass collective action can create the conditions for these factors to emerge and deepen.

Union members make 18% more on average than their non-union counterparts and are 60% more likely to have health benefits and almost twice as likely to have retirement benefits. Unions can also provide you job security if the boss fires you for no reason -- or no good reason. #UnionsForAll

Support for @davidhogg.bsky.social and the Leaders We Deserve campaign. Don't let the old grumps get you down, David. Some of us olds really like where you are going with this. Youth should lead youth into our new tomorrow. Sure, listen to the advice that experience offers, but only use what works.

👀👀 I haven't had a period since I had an ablation over 25 years ago. I've also gone through menopause since then. Maybe I should start using this just to fuck with them.

I have a question for users of Etsy. Every time I want to order something on the site, the crafter/artist displayed (as the person who made the item) looks fake, and their descriptions sound fake as well. Is Etsy no longer a place to go for hand crafted items? Who is actually making these things?

Julian Taylor vs. AI My husband asked ChatGPT for this, but it came back with many errors. So he did it himself. Every President (by name & party), House & Senate (by party), and every Supreme Court Justice by name & affiliation, throughout the U.S. from April 30, 1789. We will study this.

My husband & I have rediscovered something from our youth: a BBC-produced series called The age of Uncertainty, written and narrated by economist John Kenneth Galbraith. We couldn't find it anywhere but on YouTube, although we would very much like a copy of it. Pertinent to today and fascinating.

I cannot overstate how despicable the Mahmoud Khalil case is The Government concedes he hasn’t broken any laws But they assert he can be deported for his past, current or even EXPECTED beliefs All based on the sole determination of Marco Rubio Who is apparently now the head of the Thought Police
