This Obama/Cheesecake Factory discourse is ridiculous. Obama wasnt criticizing the restaurant. He noted how an already intentionally/maximally decorated establishment had a dictator w/ shit taste ruin it. Gilding the lily. The Cheesecake Factor & the WH dont need further embellishment.

Is it me, or is this NYT headline wrong? Profound change not chance, right? I have a lot of hate for NYT headline writers, but come on.

Theory: Fantasy football is just a way to get fans onside with NFL owners/management.

US Support to Ukraine "evolved"? That's a funny way to spell "devolved," NYTimes.

Dear SNL writers, if you're listening: please every JD Vance bit show him getting hit in the face with a cream pie. Then have him ask "why am I always getting cream pied?" Over and over again. He's already rizz-less. Just go for the kill and make him absolutely pathetically unelectable.

Michael Tracey. The Ick personified.

I'm about 99% sure that John Stossel is the reason everyone thinks big pharma is a problem. "You take one pill and then you have to take another!" RFK Jr. must've watched a lot 20/20

Fuck John in Pittsburgh.

I guess it's not newsworthy at the NYT that Mike Johnson sent everyone home early to avoid Hegseth impeachment vote. @nytimes.com cowards

Tech oligarchs are pumping the brakes on AI because it’s not going to deliver on promises. Too much $$ too fast. Investor demand rushed the rollout. Now it’s falling apart & investors are going to be pissed regardless.

NYT continues tongue-bathing Vance. He's "fiery"!!!!

Harris was accused of sleeping her way up. BUT it's always projection w/GOP. Vance likely slept his way to the top: profs, investors, bosses, girlfriend doing his law school work. Only thing that makes sense since he's a) not that bright & b) a world class sychophant, & c) he'll do anything for $

He’s everything that project 2025 could hope for. Destruction of a nation and a middle class only leaving white people to mow billionaires lawns. Russell Vought is POTUS. Peter Thiel is VP. Vance is a used car salesman. The orange waste of oxygen is just a circus ring leader in a cheezy circus.

Segregated spaces =/= safe spaces.

www.nytimes.com/2026/08/20/u... Not a single man, woman, child or pet is safe in trump's America. trump will cut every tree, kill every animal, strip every field and build roads everywhere because there is a few bucks in it. .

No idea why my personal freedoms have to be highly regulated while markets and tech get to be as free as fuck. Jerk-offs want to drag us back to 1850s social norms while having all the cool gadgets.

This is what happens when you put someone in charge who hates regulations b/c he can't rip people off with impunity and who only sees government as something to rip off.

This NYT headline is giving me the ick. I get the allusion to "Baby shoes, never worn," but if it's supposed to be funny/arch it's a bit dark for me. Especially with healthcare/MAHA ascendant in the US.

Even most reporters who aren't outright in the tank for the administration care more about filing their 1,500 words, getting clicks, and not getting acused of bias by bad faith right wing hacks than they do about reporting the truth. They're embarrassments to the profession. Awful tweet by Sagal.

The final straw for me and social media might just be the Stancil/Boots Theory kerfuffle. Stuff and nonsense and time wasting. And it's a hell of my own making b/c I choose to look.

Fauci is the new Benghazi. Another disingenuous right-wing distraction amplified by the media.

"Daring deals?" F'n NYTimes. Always framing Trump-era corruption as brave.

What if a Trump married a Kardashian?

Mark Zuckerberg got rich being a thieving perv.

Stu Holden not saying shit now

I just learned today who Stu Holden is. And it's because he sucks.

The stadium boooing trump - thank you NY/NJ

The NY "we're nothing if not pro-capitalism" Times gotta keep rah-rah BUSINESS! stories coming on a regular basis.

F*cking Emily Oster.

"Frays." Just say 'fails.' Stop pussyfooting around it NYTimes.

But her emails. But her laugh.

"It's about integrity and fairness!" MAGA re: women's sports "Cheating to win is cool!!" MAGA re: men's sports

He called Trump "America's Hitler," and then turned around and became Trump's Göring.

Theory: Trump destroyed the East Wing because Melania had an affair there.

Prediction: Trump pardons a bunch of deceased people, including Al Capone.

I watched The Birdcage (1996) last night (free w/ads on YouTube). I can't believe some of the topics shown as satire last night are now earnestly under discussion 30 (THIRTY!) years later.

Jonathan Haidt gives me the ick

The desire for unlimited/unregulated technological progress but stagnant/restricted societal change is nuts.

NYTimes editorial meeting

Doing My Part. 🫡🧡🐕‍🦺

Just very, very happy I didn't get Ezra Klein.

I wonder why NYTimes is now giving some home page content away for free. Seems like they've been doing this for a few days now.

So much of our MSM got co-opted/remade by the blogosphere. They gave up having a free press for "free speech"™️

Reminder: Ross Douthat is NOT a journalist Ezra Klein is NOT a journalist They're pundits. They have 'perspectives.' They arent really a "professional" anything. Theyre just opinionated writers/speakers. Klein started out as a blogger. Douthat wrote opinions for his college paper. Big f'n deal.

NYTimes must be moderating the hell out of this handjob of an interview. Only 6 comments approved so far. Funny how Douthat doesn't have to disclose that he's friends with Vance.

"Shimmering," really? I still want to know which editor at the NYTimes loves Trump this much.
