Elon was going to share DOGE with Vivek. He booted Vivek. Elon was going to be housed in the Eisenhower Building. Now he’s going to be in the West Wing. Trump kicked GOP officials out of the Rotunda so Elon and his pals could be there. Those of us who called Elon co-POTUS weren’t fooling around.

In the 10 years after a Walmart Supercenter opened in a given community, the average household in that community experienced a 6 percent decline in yearly income — $5,000 a year in 2024 dollars. Low-income, young, and less-educated workers suffered the largest losses.

Women have always had it worse, always will, but I do think men are finally being flooded with harmful body image projections at every angle. The famous example of Hugh Jackman’s Wolverine circa 2000 and then again in 2013 a representative case.

Republicans are now saying that are prepared to make "hard choices," i.e., to gut the social security payments and health care seniors worked their entire lives to receive. Never mind that Trump repeatedly promised not to do just that during his presidential campaign.

On Earth 71 he just won a 5th term, dispatching Scott Walker handily. He has surpassed FDR as our longest-serving president. Memories of the time before the being known as "Obama" ruled are beginning to pass into the annals of forgotten history. Michelle begs him to step aside.

in 1990 seattle grabbed swaths of land to upzone hoping to create 100k homes. the debate that upzones cause displacement is a myth. over the next 30 years, the black population cratered in single family zoned areas and grew where housing growth was allowed. density has saved our city’s diversity
