The Pentagon’s budget is the biggest, baddest meanest guy on your cell block. Defunding USAID is like punching Mister Roger’s in the face.

By going after USAID the very first week, the White House has done what they say to do in prison: find the biggest, baddest meanest guy on your cell block, and sock him square in the jaw on Day 1.

"Lemon, by now you've seen the Mean Girls musical trailer." "Musical? They didn't sing once." "No one actually likes musicals, it's called Wonkaing. You advertise all the non-musical parts of the musical." "Wonka is a musical?" "Don't let that get out, we can't have a panic."

Whether it's Trump judge Juan Merchan giving $15 to Joe Biden, or Federalist Society vice-president Leonard Leo taking $1.6 billion from a right-wing donor to start a new dark money money group, there have been unusual expenditures on both sides of the legal aisle.

I really need to emphasize that Leonard Cohen's Hallelujah is: 1) not Christian 2) not a Christmas song 3) not for most funerals 4) best covered by Jeff Buckley

This morning, I wanted to extend my most devout prayers and deepest thoughts to the victims of the bear maulings at Heritage Village Retirement Community and their friends and loved ones. This was a terrible and senseless tragedy that could not have been avoided.

Two of my very close friends are Chechens who survived both Chechen wars. I've heard their stories, I've seen the tiny, dank cellar where one of them slept for months to avoid the artillery strikes, and have seen how they have struggled watching the war in Ukraine unfold. 1/

My brother lived in Hawaii when this happened. His neighbor got into a bathtub with a mattress over his head, took a shot of whiskey, and texted his ex girlfriend that he still loved her in case they all died. False alarm on the nuke but they got back together! Love that story

The backwards thing about “networking” in your early years is that it feels like you should connect w/ high profile, successful people. In reality, those people are so checked out & won’t be able to do anything for you. Instead, spend your time talking to new, undiscovered folks.

They're slowly declining in number, but there were a bunch of About Me videos people made for their MySpace on YouTube, c. 2005-09. A few years ago I downloaded a hundred and cut together some of the best bits that capture myspace's chaotic energy youtu.be/EAO1WbX-FsY

I've just finished the first season of @cityofghostspod. Awesome writing, acting and production values! I think fans of The Strata will love the themes and the neo-noir setting where crime and corruption abound. Highly recommended!

My hottest take is that I feel almost religious certainty that Avatar 2 is going to kick ass and James Cameron is going to prove everyone wrong again. – at Los Angeles, CA
