A few unorganized thoughts on a great artist for a very sad Friday morning. substack.com/@cocksure/no...
So you could say the incident affected his judgment?
It takes a special kind of Guy to look at all the circumstances of Brett Kavanaugh's career arc and reach the passive-voice conclusion that Kavanaugh "was forced" to join the Supreme Court's conservative wing. But Noah Feldman? He is that special kind of Guy. noahfeldman.substack.com/p/brett-kava...
But maybe it’s a pig or goat who is a sexy secret agent, did you ever think of that
I'm thinking there's a Pulitzer Prize waiting for the reporter dicovering the identity of the FBI applicant who engaged in beastiality and what their relationship is to Kash Patel causing him to change the standard and allow that person into the agency.

This is a big one and took a while! The Avengers: Doomsday Font & Logo Generator is live now - definitely don't tag Marvel with what you make.
My old MTV colleague Julie Reading has an excellent podcast called The Ambition Code, it’s about life and learning how to roll with its punches and figuring out how to remain creative through all of it, and I was honored to be a guest this week. Give it a go! open.spotify.com/episode/4Ndp...

It straight up pisses me off that Dolly Parton was doing this stuff for the past 30 years while the biggest assholes in the world became billionaires whose only charitable contributions are to their own tax-exempt organizations (that they receive tax benefits for donating to & "volunteering with".)
This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

Unpopular opinion: the learning curve for a United States Senator should be long and slow and a person should not be “thrown in there” just because they’re the sister of a guy who died. (Also “Darline” is not a name, it sucks.)
RNC Chair Joe Gruters defends Darlene Graham: "I will tell you she is supportive of the president. That means the president trusts her and trusts her judgment. At the end of the day, she will be a MAGA warrior ... it's a quick learning curve once you're thrown in there."
DJ’d at the Goldline last night, and @jessehawken.bsky.social knows I had to do it to ‘em.
