The first episode introduces the idea that the goal going into any debate shouldn’t be an airing of differences, but an agreement about what is true. Set a house rule as the first shared goal.

When Hegseth implements and personally exceeds a 120 IQ requirement for the Department of DEFENSE, I’ll have a salad.

He…doesn’t understand that words can have more that one meaning. He thinks intelligence only means mental acuity. He thinks asylum only means mental institution. He thinks 86 means “deep six.” And nobody around him has bothered to correct him.

Theory: Trump’s circle has to use very simple terms to explain complex concepts to him. He then loudly shouts the simple part as it’s all he understands. Hence, “This plane is sus AF and presents a clear and present national security threat” becomes “I’M NUMBER ONE!”

My personal July 4th tradition is an annual viewing of 1776. The cut that includes Cool Considerate Men. Original to the stage production, it was cut from the 1972 film because Nixon pressured the producer to get rid of it. He even wanted the negative destroyed. Does this ring any Liberty Bells?

Is the perpetrator of GashGate 2026 the same one who “vandalized” the Rose Garden last year? www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

He’s threatening to sue the media over pool coverage. What an unbelievable, petulant manchild. Everyone knew he was going to fuck up the reflecting pool. He fucked up the reflecting pool, and now he’s invented vandals (despite the fact that the pool is under 24/7 video surveillance) to blame.

(I hate using “space” as a place one can go, like the kitchen or Cleveland. I’m aware that space is simply that which is Not Earth. But you know what I’m asking.)

It was several hours after seeing Is God Is that I realized there were no Caucasians with lines in the entire film. DIDN’T MISS ‘EM. Filmmakers: give us more stories without clears. Turns out we’re optional for effective storytelling.

The U.S. Department of Justice panicking over “86” like it’s a threat is wild—it literally means “we’re out.” If you want ominous, “deep six” exists. Then again, this is the same orbit where Donald Trump confused “political asylum” with “insane asylum.” Words are hard. Numbers too.

Michaels has announced a 72 hour waiting period to buy decorative seashells. Opponents to the new policy issued a statement reading, “When cowries are outlawed, only outlaws will have cowries.”

Journalists and pundits: PLEASE stop calling him a “madman.” He likes that; it sounds dangerous. Instead, call him “feeble-minded.” It’s more accurate.

For someone who allegedly speaks five languages, she seems not well-versed in reading one of them.

First lady Melania Trump held a rare news conference to deny allegations that she had a close relationship with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell. The White House declined to comment on the timing of her statement.

I’m running for Governor of Phillydilly. As Governor, I will represent ALL Phillydillians to deliver results over rhetoric. YOUR voice. OUR state. ONE Phillydilly.

2/2) I want to highlight this exchange where Guinan (Whoopi Goldberg) says Resistance Isn't Futlie - which is the spirit of #NoKings:

Eins Luftballon.

Seems the Pentagon is testing anti-drone high-energy lasers near Fort Bliss in El Paso, and didn't feel this was dangerous enough to close airspace over. The FAA administrator disagreed. Last week, these lasers successfully protected the American people from a sinister children's party balloon.

Super Bowl: Powerful but uneven. The act that played between Green Day and Bad Bunny was super boring. I don’t know why they came back for that really long encore.
