Went to a gay bar last night here in Nashville right before the debate started. Did not expect to get back to the hotel and see true gloom and doom stuff. Bleak!

is this a style guide thing where the Federalist just mixes up the letters however they want, or an honest fuckup because they have zero competent writers or editors?

my wife insisted we put up these two statues on the lawn of us engaged in intercourse. it's because someone down the street said she looked 'busted.'

with all the understandable anger over the AI bullshit-spewing happening right now, it's nostalgic to remember when Wikipedia was once considered a huge source of misinformation instead!

reading the regular press has gotten even more worthless over the last month or so. Shout out to these student journalists at The Daily Texan for their coverage: thedailytexan.com/2024/04/30/p...

my friend is near the UT Campus right now. the bullshit the state government and the administration pulled does not seem to have deterred students from protesting for an end to the genocide

The most antisemitic thing you can say to me, a Jew, is that I have to support the genocide being carried out by the government of Israel or I’m a bad Jew. I was raised better than that, by better Jews than the people saying that.

"Austin goth rock gods Urban Heat closed out the night with flashes of the city’s punk heritage, where genres clash and trying something new is the ultimate goal." Everything about this piece is embarrassing but I can't help but notice this writing reads like advertising copy for fruit snacks.
this may be one of the most cursed things i’ve ever seen

The nerve to quote Arendt in advertising this mush-brained symposium presented by UT and the "University" of Austin.

Dispiriting news about the Texas Observer, again. I continue to be baffled about how this magazine runs things, especially when their first move a few months ago was just to shut the whole thing down without even trying to fund raise first? I don't understand. www.texasobserver.org/texas-observ...

I have an unsubstantiated belief that a lot of people who thought these billboards were "cute" a few years before COVID would now regard them as pure evil

VICE will always be partly known as the 'what if we went to the reptile zoo on ketamine' type website, but they published incredible journalism as well. The wholesale destruction of the great that was nestled in the middling is reprehensible.
