I had so much goddamned fun writing this piece for Defector. Warhammer 40k is fun as hell, and it offers an enormous amount of room for creativity from both fans and the creators working to make media set within the universe.

iced coffee is junior level. the real power move is bringing a corn on the cob to your interview

BLUEY and TEEN TITANS GO! are both better than like 90-95 of those 100 shows

Making Count von Count watch a 0-0 half is rude.

Playing badminton with Mitch McConnell. We talked about the midterms and Iran. I took the first game 15-0 because he is unresponsive and lying on the ground.

It’s 43 minutes past midnight. This is downtown Oslo.

Happy Independence Day, from the god Jack Handey.

I’m not too embarrassed that we are losing to Iran. It’s a big boy country with missiles and drones and so forth ran by stone cold killers. That’s NFL ball for you. I am a little embarrassed we are also losing to algae.

Michelle and I loved reading to this bright group of kids today! We hope this new Chicago Public Library branch at the Obama Presidential Center will be a place where folks come to read, check out books, and connect with one another for years to come.

The existence of a trillionaire is a policy failure.

have we considered that flo rida and vanilla ice might be locked in a deadly game of chicken where both performers have their entire net worth tied up in elaborate parallel kalshi bets that they will be the last act to drop out? I am asking us to consider it

A tearful Mo Salah brings a glittering Liverpool career to an end 🥹 Long live the king 👑

Tonight we congratulate our friend Stephen Colbert and his writers, staff and crew for eleven years of excellence. Watch Colbert’s finale tonight, and then never watch CBS again.

Democrats need to understand we’re already in a revolutionary moment. The American republic built in the 60s and 70s is being swept away by Republicans and the Supreme Court. It’s up to us to fight for a liberal democratic future. My latest: www.liberalcurrents.com/democrats-ne...

I also did this

Chris Taylor is within 100 votes of winning Walworth County. If Republicans can't win places where the main draw is being drunk on a boat that's bad news for them nationwide.

We’ve told all the casting agents that the Weird Al biopic sequel is currently on hold, but they just keep sending in headshots.

It’s the same guy you dumb shit

I imagine it was extremely disturbing

Judge Biery signed the order with a photo of Liam and two bible verses: The first is "But Jesus said, Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven." The second is simply "Jesus wept." Astonishing thing for a judge to do.

I wrote about my childhood friend Alexi Pretti. Please read it and share it and remember him as a human being. @theverge.com

For any elected official who needs to hear this, I impart a lesson learned from the NFL: When the other team is tired and on the back foot, you don’t call a timeout so they can catch their breath. You grind their fucking face into the dirt until the final whistle blows and you’ve won the game.

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

Minnesotans are showing the soul of the United States to the world.

Alex Pretti was an ICU nurse serving veterans. He died trying to protect protestors being assaulted. A group of anonymous & masked men fired chemicals into his face, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him in broad daylight in front of witnesses. Then his government smeared him & defended his murder.

Minnesota legend Charles M. Schulz knew what made a great citizen. “Sometimes it is the very people who cry out the loudest in favor of getting back to what they call ‘American Virtues’ who lack this faith in our country.”

The number of Gestapo in Germany was 32,000. The population was 70 million. That's one Gestapo for every 2200 citizens. The number of ICE agents is 20,000. The population of the US is 348 million. That's one ICE agent for every 17,000 citizens. There are more of us.

wow really helpful, thank you new york times

when you check on your client's 401(k) and everything is on track and also you've hit a go-ahead home run.

ChatGPT is not your friend! real relationships challenge you toward personal growth, as with Mavis Beacon, a beautiful lady professional who taught me to type really fast.

I'd just like to point out how weird it is that places with hundreds or even thousands of reporters — the NYT, WaPo, CBS, NBC, AP, etc. — are all getting pummeled on every major story by the dozen computerboys at Wired. To fumble the bag this consistently is, at some point, cowardice and a choice.

Donald Trump just bombed Iran without any authorization from Congress. Congress must immediately pass Rep. Massie's War Powers Resolution to block Trump from dragging the US into an unconstitutional war in the Middle East.
