leaving browser tabs open on a friday afternoon like the guy from memento tattooing himself, muttering “god i just hope when she sees this on monday she knows what it means.”

[speaking very slowly and quietly between clenched teeth because i'm trying not to lose it] based...on...what...

So Musk’s people, who misread $8 million as $8 billion, who counted the same contracts multiple times and counted as savings programs that ended last year, claim that their AI is finding lots of Social Security fraud. Why should anyone worry?

There it is: Speaker of the House says Elon has already started running your Social Security through his AI.

it's american citizenship, Michael. what could it cost? $5 million?

Again, any time a Republican says we have to slash Medicaid to fix the deficit, they need to be asked why we shouldn’t just increase taxes on the rich. It’s a zero sum game. Make them defend giving more money to billionaires over keeping ordinary people healthy.

Republicans want one thing and it’s fucking disgusting (tax cuts for the rich funded by healthcare cuts for the poor)

Over on LinkedIn, the head of the Executive Secretariat of the NIH -- a central part of NIH leadership 🧪🩺-- resigned with a lettter worth reading www.linkedin.com/posts/nathan...

did the doctor from arrested development write this

The good news is i saved you 60 billion dollars. The bad news is that is a typo i saved you 600 dollars and also your plane is falling out of the sky

Let’s see what motivates this guy to join DOG…oh

🚨 SCOOP: DOGE is seeking personal taxpayer data at IRS, sources tell me. 🚨 Trump admin is pushing IRS to agree to an MOU that would give DOGE access to granular data on every taxpayer, business and nonprofit in the country.

How's that Twitter deal aging? How's Tesla's car business doing? How's that bet on Elon's magic self-driving beans feeling right about now? Go ask the one analyst who is too smart to be popular how good SpaceX's business really looks. The real letdown is still coming, bro. The signs are all there.

If I am Pagliacci and I paid a copay to go to the doctor and the doctor recommended I go see myself, I'm gonna fight the doctor. The nurse literally typed in "Current employment: Pagliacci the Clown."

The closure of CFPB highlights the grand lie at the heart of DOGE. CFPB is cheap to run & delivers billions to victims of corporate scams. It’s the definition of value for money. But X & Meta hate it because it targets big tech fraud. DOGE is not about waste. It’s about enriching the oligarchy.

They need to make museums open 24/7. Buzzed off 2 hard seltzers at 10:30pm is when I’m *most* interested in old artifacts from the titanic

Should go without saying but the point of diversity in hiring is to find _better_-qualified candidates outside of stagnant social networks that don't reward merit, like the kind of network that would put an MTV personality with a marketing degree in charge of the Department of Transportation

The stakes of the 2025 tax fight couldn’t be higher. Republicans want to give massive tax breaks to billionaires by jacking up costs on hardworking families. We’re the campaign that’s going to stop them 🧵

It's crazy I still think of millennials as young but you guys are so old now too

This is a long and fascinating report that's specifically about Netflix but also captures a lot of the trends of the entertainment industry in general.

The first night of Hanukkah being on Christmas this year was a HUGE win for "happy holidays."

Happy holidays!

Once again my political enemies are smearing me by presenting evidence of my crimes

Finally read that WSJ article from last week and this confirms everything I suspected.

folks, is it gay to don our apparel now

In his first big flex of power on Capitol Hill, Elon Musk shitposted a bunch of misinformation to kill a bipartisan spending bill that would have averted a government shutdown, threatened reps supporting it, and demanded Congress stop working until Trump is in office. Awesome stuff

Sesame Street wasn’t just about letters and numbers. It was also about empathy and community.

Crime, and especially money laundering, is big business and $100 bills are too bulky; crypto is the answer paulkrugman.substack.com/p/crypto-is-...

sesame street isn't supposed to make money. the post office isn't supposed to make money. not everything is supposed to MAKE MONEY

why is it called "owl city" if there's 10 million fireflies and no owls

Defector is really on a roll! This piece captures so much of the current moment, when everything seems like a grift, and so many people are kind of psyched about it!

dad jokes are just pop culture

[never seen a ups truck before] the big brown box just left me its baby

Yep, that's pretty much the whole plan.
