All federal employees must respond to an email from a Nigerian prince with their bank account number or risk being terminated.

Something that’s very clear is that Trump is old and checked out. He wants to play the role of president but has zero interest in doing the job and is happy to outsource the real work to Musk, Vought and a crew of feral zealots.

You never imagine the descent into despotism being quite this embarrassing, you know? You expect liberal democracy to fall to a Palpatine, not Biff Tannen.

Not that anyone cares but a bunch of senior doj officials resigning over a corrupt instruction to drop a case was what triggered the Nixon impeachment, and in the Trump era it's just the 2pm scandal of a random Thursday and every day now has ~3 such scandals that would have ended any prior admin

granted i don't know much about his policies, but at this point president comacho seems like he'd be an improvement.

This reads like the opening paragraph of a novel so bleakly dystopian you'd put it down after five pages

There's a massive box set edition coming out Friday for @wilcohq.bsky.social's A GHOST IS BORN. It's one of my favorite albums of all time, so I wrote a lot of words about it and coming to terms with "tortured artist" mythology. uproxx.com/indie/wilco-...

Remember how Kamala Harris was like “Project 2025 is horrifying and we need to prevent it,” and Trump was like “no that’s not my plan” and the press was like “he said it’s not his plan, and we trust him,so stop lying about it”? So weird that the main author is now in charge of the budget.

NEW: Sources tell my office that Treasury Secretary Bessent has granted DOGE *full* access to this system. Social Security and Medicare benefits, grants, payments to government contractors, including those that compete directly with Musk's own companies. All of it.

The future Lakers pick owed to the Jazz is near worthless.

I kept this screenshot assuming someday we might be asked to forget.

If Elon Musk serves as de facto president for the next four years, can Trump run again in 2028? This Federalist Society judge says yes.

There's a reason democracies don't let people who tried coups back into power.

Trump choosing a Fox anchor to be Secretary of Defense is my first real "is this a dream?" moment since election day.

I guess we are going back? 🤷‍♂️

Incredible! I used this new AI protocol to generate a Garfield cartoon in which he has seven alarmingly pointy human fingers and directs a shockingly racist remark at Nermal.

Sorry I forget about you guys over here

Everyone yukking it up at Rep. Lauren Boebert j'ing some guy o at a local production of a Beetlejuice musical. But what if it was a production of Glengarry Glen Ross? Then it's not so funny, right? Or maybe just as funny in a different way. Maybe Bobby Cannavale is playing Ricky Roma. He'd be good.

Thinking about the time I saw The National in concert. The singer asked "how's everyone doing tonight?" and the guy next to me shouted "I'm getting a divorce"

here is a picture of me, a 39 year old podcaster. today I dressed like a school shooter and scribbled down notes during the movie about your daughter’s toy doll

Adding some Radiohead bootlegs to my running playlist, this set from the Bonnaroo festival in 2006 may be the greatest Radiohead concert of all time.
