Don't worry, I can be angry about lots of things at the same time.

Every May, there’s a Five Eyes conference with the head of every intelligence agency. This year it was in the U.K. Kash Patel is going. In the lead-up to that, his detail starts making crazy requests. He’s got special requirements on everything. And the Brits are getting pissed. Before the conference, his staff says he’s unhappy because he doesn’t like meetings in office settings. What he wants is social events. He wants Premier soccer games. He wants to go jet skiing. He’d like a helicopter tour. Everyone who heard about this was like: Hold on. Is he really going to ask the MI5 director to go jet skiing instead of meeting? The schedule is set, and every Five Eyes partner is doing this. They can’t just say that he’s not participating and instead he wants to go to a Premier soccer game. This is a job, guys. His staff only cared about three things: what his meals were, when his workouts would be and what his entertainment would be. The biggest plan is how he’s going to get his girlfriend in there so she can go to Windsor Castle. He’s got Nicole Rucker as his assistant, like a true executive concierge. And when she’s not getting the food or the workout she wants, she’ll just start screaming at people, Make it happen.
“Early in the Reticulum—thousands of years ago—it became almost useless because it was cluttered with faulty, obsolete, or downright misleading information,” Sammann said. “Crap, you once called it,” I reminded him. “Yes—a technical term. So crap filtering became important. Businesses were built around it. Some of those businesses came up with a clever plan to make more money: they poisoned the well. They began to put crap on the Reticulum deliberately, forcing people to use their products to filter that crap back out. They created syndevs whose sole purpose was to spew crap into the Reticulum. But it had to be good crap.” “What is good crap?” Arsibalt asked in a politely incredulous tone. “Well, bad crap would be an unformatted document consisting of random letters. Good crap would be a beautifully typeset, well-written document that contained a hundred correct, verifiable sentences and one that was subtly false. It’s a lot harder to generate good crap. At first they had to hire humans to churn it out.” ― Neal Stephenson, Anathem

Headlines from NYTimes stories all published in the same week about Hillary Clinton getting pneumonia when she was running against Trump. Hillary Clinton Has Pneumonia: What That Means What Pneumonia Experts Say About Clinton's Case Hillary Clinton's Doctor Says Pneumonia Let to Abrupt Exit from 9/11 Event Hillary Clinton Is Set Back By Decision to Keep Illness Secret
“The two incompetent people running our country — and I don’t think they’re even running it — are leading us to the brink of World War III, a war like no other,” Trump told a raucous crowd in Waunakee, Wisconsin, claiming without evidence that the nation’s first and second in command are not in fact in charge of the administration.
"I'm glad you mentioned the women's team again; we're extremely happy for them. There's a lot going on with social media right now surrounding our team and their team. But in the last couple of summers, we did a lot of training with them and got to know a lot of those girls really well," Quinn Hughes said.
Tweet from June 22, 2020, during the George Floyd protests, from Bill Melugin who still with Fox KTLA then: "BREAKING: Sources tell me an off duty LAPD officer allegedly found a tampon halfway thru his Frappuccino at a Starbucks in Diamond Bar on Friday. I’m told he used his police credit union debit card. Sheriff’s Dept. confirms they took a report & they’re now investigating." It features a picture of something that is not remotely a tampon.

"She was, in fact, the only supervisor appointee in at least the last 30 years to come with zero experience in either government or politics. Alcaraz’s first hire as an aide was not a deeply experienced wrangler of government to hoist her up a legislative mountain — someone like Mike Farrah, Bill Barnes, Sunny Angulo or Jen Low — but a city staffer who formerly produced videos for the mayor’s office. This is unfortunate. This indicates a belief on the part of the mayor and his appointee that the purpose of government is not to do things but just to sell them."

from the article, one of the DEA officers in one of the reviewed communications says "apparently someone who has access to his account may have been running plates and maybe have placed the search bar 'immigration'.. which maybe brought undue attention..." and from another communication, the officer who was sharing his password offering to search for plants asks "What's the plate? And confirming it is NOT for immigration purposes..."
A close up of the one of the gilted doodads Trump's had glued to the doors. It shows that it's several inches larger than the door's raised inset, so the edges extend awkwardly beyond the wood, attached to nothing.
post from Moira Donegan with a link to a NYTimes story headlined "the Rose of Silicon Valley's Techno-Religion." She says "Maybe it’ll turn out that the social ostracism and mild arbitrary violence meted out to nerds in high schools was actually socially load-bearing, and that removing it and integrating nerds into positions of status and leadership is what led to civilizational collapse."

She made a statement outside his sentencing hearing in March saying he deserved jail time."

NYTimes webform on Census and Racial Categories, this question asks "What do you think about the race and ethnicity categories you’re confronted with?" Reply: I think you need to stop thinking criticism means you're good. If I start cultivating a festering mound of dogshit in front of my place and my neighbors get angry about it, that anger does not mean I'm right. My neighbors are 100% right, I am 100% wrong.

NYTimes blurb saying: A U.S. senator from California was forced to the ground, handcuffed and removed by federal agents after interrupting a news conference by the homeland security secretary in Los Angeles on Thursday. It was the latest sign of the rising political tensions as authorities across the country geared up for more demonstrations and California and the Trump administration prepared to meet in federal court. Democratic politicians in California and Washington reacted with outrage to the video of Senator Alex Padilla’s treatment by federal agents. The secretary, Kristi Noem, was speaking about ongoing federal immigration enforcement efforts in the city when Mr. Padilla yelled that he had questions, prompting his removal.

You have to scroll down the homepage to find a single story about Hegesth using Signal chats for war planning. Coverage of the possibility that there were emails from Hillary on Weiner's laptop was the entire above the fold front page with multiple stories.
Email from AOC urging me to call my senator right now. She says: Tell them: 1. Vote NO on Cloture AND 2. Vote NO on the Republican spending bill. Don’t let them pivot to reconciliation. The GOP doesn’t need Dem votes on that, and they know it. TODAY is the showdown. It should be very clear: any vote for Cloture will be considered a vote for the bill. People aren’t going to be tricked with procedural games. They know exactly what is going on. Defend Medicaid. Vote NO on Cloture. NO on bill.
Under the heading "A Joint Address for the Wealthy, Not Working Families" she writes: "In his Joint Address this week, President Trump made it clear that his Administration continues to prioritize the wealthy and well-connected over working families and middle class Americans. Instead of offering a plan to lower costs, President Trump doubled down on policies that benefit his billionaire donors and big corporations. Curiously, President Trump failed to mention the Republican budget plan to cut Medicaid by $880 billion, a move that will leave millions of Americans without essential health care. It was my pleasure to bring Elena Hung to the Joint Address as my guest. Elena's daughter, Xiomara, was born with serious medical conditions and is thriving today because of Medicaid. At a time when Medicaid is under attack by those seeking tax breaks for billionaires, Elena’s story serves as a powerful reminder of the critical role these initiatives have in the lives of working families."
Tweet from David Axelrod: I love my country with all my heart and I've never been more embarrassed for America than the spectacle I just witnessed in the Oval Office. Zelensky is fighting for the survival of his country, his people and their democracy. Trump and Vance appear to be completely aligned with Putin, the invader whose aim has been to conquer Ukraine. Zelensky should know that millions and millions of Americans still stand with him and his valiant people.
Quote from article in the Columbia Journalism Review about the WHCA reaction to Trump's win: But for a surprising number of people on the daily White House beat, that concern is mixed with another, more privately expressed emotion: relief at finally being rid of the Joe Biden press operation. “I think it’s important for people to understand the context, that we’re coming out of four years of Biden and things haven’t been great,” one White House print reporter told CJR. “There’ve been fewer eyeballs on the press briefings and less attention than under Trump, so people just don’t understand some of the very frustrating things that we’ve dealt with and that we hope are going to be rolled back.”
