I do have a memory a few years ago of listening to Loveline for the first time in a decade, and Dr Drew just sound so fed up with everyone who called in and people in general. I remember wondering why he was still at this gig

It’s always so particular to individual, but I like thrifted ones with kinda dark shades - my coworking space has good examples

He's putting up record job losses, driving the country into a war he can't even explain, and was credibly accused of raping a teenager in the Epstein files released yesterday - so of course it's time to try and ruin more trans people's lives

U.S. sub sinks Iranian warship off Sri Lanka, killing 87 and expanding war zone A U.S. submarine sank an Iranian warship off the southern coast of Sri Lanka, killing dozens of sailors and dramatically widening Washington's pursuit of the Iranian navy.

A US submarine sinking a lonely, dinky Iranian surface ship an ocean away from the theater of the main conflictβ€”and 9000
miles from North Americaβ€”makes it pretty clear the US is fighting a general war, without the declaration required by the Constitution. www.reuters.com/world/asia-p...

Interesting, non-hopium stuff here from a long-time Talarico watcher

I've been a long-term pessimist about Dems in Texas until this year, and I basically agree with everything @gelliottmorris.com says here. Talarico isn't the favorite...but he doesn't need everything to go right to win, just more things than go wrong.

Spurs rookie Dylan Harper, when asked to name his main takeaway from his first rodeo road trip:

"We need that new arena."

100% this.

The temp in my social circle is extremely low, despite everyone caring a lot. Eyes on the November prize.

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

"If you listened to the campus left over the years.."

Most adults actually don't spend much time thinking about what college students are up to. That's a bizarre hobby that only exists in the elite media clique.

I also finished a naggy task tonight, and then met a friend from Carothers (26ish years and counting) at Drink Well for a martini. What a treat to have bars that good on North Loop

It’s a wild ride! I’m a little conflicted about how it all resolved, but also love a limited series with an actual ending

Running your war from a private club for millionaires β€” ahead of a $1 million-a-plate dinner β€” is a choice.

You sound like an unhinged person if you in plain words describe what’s happening, but the Trump admin demanded Anthropic’s AI be able to kill things for it w/out human approval and also do mass surveillance.

Anthropic said no, and now the admin is trying to destroy the company in retaliation.

The guy who staged a failed coup last time is building a massive personal militia staffed with lawless thugs. At this point it’s just naΓ―ve not to see where this is going.
