Almost six hours on the phone with @Intuit support, only to get hung up on. Got passed in a circle to 11 different agents who all blamed each other. Can’t wait till AI gets ya

The Reflecting Pool is a perfect metaphor for the Trump administration:

- Ignore experts and science
- Overspend
- Declare early, historic victory
- "THE LEFT HATE THIS"
- Ends in total failure
- Unfounded conspiracies about sabotage
- MAGA pretends it doesn't actually matter

Donald Trump thought he could score cheap political points by calling Bill LeRoy an “insult to Jesus” because the veteran catcher and captain of the Savannah Bananas is “beyond woke” and believes that God does not discriminate on the basis of gender.
Standing in front of a roaring, sold-out Banana Ball crowd, LeRoy didn’t just clap back — he delivered a powerful, no-nonsense response that shook the stadium.
“The president of the United States just said that I insulted Jesus,” LeRoy began, gripping the mic with calm intensity. “You want to know what’s a real insult to Jesus? Turning your back on people who need help while giving more to those who already have everything.”
“You know what insults Jesus?” he continued, gesturing toward the crowd. “Separating families, shutting doors on those in need, and forgetting what ‘love thy neighbor’ actually means. That’s not the message I stand for — and it’s not the message this team stands for.”
“You know what insults Jesus? Preaching values while ignoring compassion. Talking about faith while practicing division. That’s not faith — that’s politics dressed up as religion.”
“I’m not a perfect Christian,” he said, a small smile crossing his face. “There’s only been one perfect man, and I’m not him. I’m just a catcher who believes in treating people right.”
“Jesus told us to love our neighbors as ourselves… So why do we keep choosing hate, division, and fear instead?”

Billy, this is Tiger Woods. He has amassed 15 major championships, is tied for the most PGA Tour wins, and has spent over a dozen years as the world’s number one golfer. His only defect is he cannot operate a motor vehicle.

I play golf with a guy sometimes at the club.

He fills every divot, his and others, fixes ball marks anywhere he sees them.

He’ll also pick trash from the bushes.

Sweet, kind, gentleman.

Also a billionaire.

Be that guy.

Talarico: I am tired of being pitted against my neighbor. I'm tired of being told to hate my neighbor. It's been more than ten years of this kind of politics. Politics as bloodsport, politics as trolling and owning politics as total war. It tears families apart. It ends friendships, and it leaves us all feeling terrible all the time. 

We cannot defeat the politics of division with more division. We can't win their game. We have to change the game. This campaign is rooted in a fierce love for this state, for this country, and most importantly, for all of our neighbors.

[Anthony Scaramucci @Scaramucci]

We built a rage machine — and then handed the controls to algorithms, foreign adversaries, and big tech.

Outrage drives engagement. Engagement drives profit.

If I can get you angry, I can keep you scrolling.

But here’s the twist: in person, we’re more civil.

Online, we’re caricatures. That’s by design.

And after 9/11, we overreacted exactly the way bin Laden predicted — endless wars, trillions spent, civil liberties strained, manufacturing offshored, small towns hollowed out.

Rage plus debt plus dislocation equals tribal fracture.

The question isn’t whether the machine exists. It does.

The question is whether we’re disciplined enough to step off it — reform incentives, restore balance, and stop letting anger be the main export of American politics.

Noi italiani siamo maestri nell’auto-sabotaggio: ci definiamo inadeguati, poco adatti, inaffidabili, pasticcioni.

Lo facciamo in autonomia prima ancora che ce lo dicano gli altri. Ci viene automatico perché - diciamolo - il più delle volte è davvero così.

Ma questa volta no.

Bellezza, organizzazione, passione, accoglienza… Questa volta siamo stati bravi per davvero.

Nel mare di medaglie azzurre questa era la meno prevedibile e, forse, quella di cui possiamo andare più orgogliosi:

abbiamo regalato al mondo una grande Olimpiade.

I live in Bad Bunny’s hometown.

We shop where he worked as a bagger.

We deliver lunches in the community he was raised.

Members of his family have been volunteers at our non-profit.

And from here, we can tell the world: he is generous, he is genuine, he is talented, he is us.

Goosebumps! People often ask, is Shakespeare still relevant? Here is a great example, from the Steven Colbert Show, in which Sir Ian McKellen delivers an extraordinary speech. Shakespeare’s words are timeless, urgent and important.

[Chad Scott @cpscott16]

This is complete bullshit, and it’s embarrassing how dumb the claim is.

That spreadsheet is not “No Kings protest funding.” It’s a mix of years of grant totals from large foundations to hundreds of unrelated nonprofits across civil rights, environment, voting, education, litigation, and advocacy. None of that means this money spent on a single protest.

They didn’t trace anything. They just added up big numbers and slapped a scary label on it.

Arabella, Tides, Ford, Rockefeller, Soros linked funds don’t operate like a shadowy Venmo account for protests. They distribute grants over many years for staffing, lawsuits, research, education, and compliance. Protests are usually volunteer driven and dirt cheap by comparison.

If $300 million had actually gone into one protest, you’d see contracts, payroll, transportation, housing, food, security. None of that exists. Because it didn’t happen.
