Ea-nāṣir is the recipient of the world’s oldest complaint letter. He’s reportedly the worst businessman of the 18th century, a mediocre conman whose actions should have him put out of business. Is this fair? Here’s a thread on the most up-to-date research on this captivating figure.

Hi everyone. The Onion, with the help of the Sandy Hook families, has purchased InfoWars. We are planning on making it a very funny, very stupid website. We have retained the services of some Onion and Clickhole Hall of Famers to pull this off. I can't wait to show you what we have cooked up.

This is the funniest thing for a Supreme Court justice to get impeached for, and so absolutely perfect for Samuel Alito. Say what you will about his opinions, but he has always been likely to go down for accepting a bejeweled scepter from the most racist living member of the Bourbon dynasty.

Eric Adams is amazing because when he won every media person was leaping over each to go “this is the normal sane leadership that the political left doesn’t understand normal sane Americans crave” and then every day since that Eric Adams has been like “Leprechauns are real and I’m going to cook one”

This is amazing. The best predictors of “blue zones,” those places w exceptional life expectancies? Extreme poverty and a lack of birth certificates. It’s always SO important to pay attention to how our official data gets produced, and the quality of its inputs.

Okay I think you are ready for this BlueSky. Let's talk cheese history. More specifically, Yorkshire Dales cheeses, and how WW2 and rationing almost wiped out cheesemaking in northern Britain. This is the story of the near-death of the world of one of the world's great cheeses: Wensleydale. /1 🧵
