as someone whose mother still calls him “salvatore” and who ate braciole multiple times a week as a child I feel I have the credentials to say Mamdani is right, fuck Columbus. he should be replaced with someone like Scorsese, Italo Calvino, Giada De Laurentiis or my personal preference, Mike Piazza

NY Post article about Mamdani correctly giving Columbus the middle finger

everyone is being unfair to mister trump. he finally found a new best friend after his previous best friend died in prison under mysterious circumstances a few years ago. he’s moving on and i for one am happy for him.

sometimes I think the simplest explanation of our politics is that we have a sizeable minority constituency of big fucking babies who whine and shit themselves whenever they don’t get what they want and this clip is definitely strong evidence for that theory

I genuinely don’t understand what this guy genuinely doesn’t understand. AI is wildly unpopular because people are afraid it will take their jobs and immiserate them. And they’re against committing land or resources in their communities to support AI and enrich billionaires. Am I missing something?

Will Stancil post about a poll showing a 48 point swing against AI data centers:

“Genuinely don’t understand what’s happening here - it’s not like there’s been some major data center disaster. It feels like a meme around an issue the public only loosely understands to begin with”

nothing I love more than writing a big old recap of insane news we missed and seth always performs them flawlessly. We’re back tonight from a two week break which means it’s time once again for our recurring segment “everything’s great!” youtu.be/uSSN-MhBkDo?...

I don’t understand how or when it became normalized to say “the ceasefire is holding” while describing a conflict in which both sides are shooting at each other. I guess it’s just that everything is bullshit now? it’s like saying “my marriage is intact” while your spouse throws your shit on the lawn

It’s very funny that the best attack republicans have for talarico is “he’s a vegan” meanwhile they’ve spent millions on ads calling their own nominee a corrupt lying cheating self-enriching adulterer home wrecker scumbag

my god this such a tiresome and lazy take. why do none of these articles ever note that colbert and the other late night shows crush on youtube and social media? colbert’s *daily* monologues have more views than many hot ones episodes. the explanation is simple: anti-trump comedy is popular!

lame article about politics ruining late night

the most important takeaway from massie’s race is that republican voters are a lost cause and we shouldn’t spend one second or one penny trying to appeal to them or win them over

being a mets fan is like having a standing appointment every day to get kicked in tne nuts while being stung by a thousand bees and crawling over broken glass and then when it’s over going “I’ll see you tomorrow!”
