Actual confession: As a kid, I always just assumed Groucho Marx’s greasepaint mustache was real.

I am not proud of this.

Fun fact: Take “1864”—the date of the theofascist territorial law that the Arizona Supreme Court just upheld—and swap the 8 and the 6, and then flip the 6, you have “1984”.

Just sayin…

The devastating loss of Old School green bean casserole. The one with the canned mushroom soup and the French’s Crispy Fried Onions.

Yes, lowly comfort food that didn’t deserve to be rethought, reimagined or gentrified, even though it sadly has been.

Nouveau green bean casserole joins Caeser salads made with kale—examples of “could” trumping “should.”

Just say no.

Thank you for attending my TED Talk.

Sadly true: If his last name wasn’t Kennedy, he’d be the weird guy carrying an actual soapbox to the town square—the guy you cross to the other side of street to avoid being button-holed by.

Instead, he uses a willing media as his verbatim transcribers.

The real story here is the deeply dodgy nexus of celebrity, privilege and mental health—which is one seemingly too nuanced for the journalists covering him.

Buh-bye, Ronna. Thoughts and prayers.

You were Donnie The Wannabe Despot’s puppet until suddenly you weren’t.

On the upside, you can restore the “Romney” part of your name. But on the downside, you’re gonna need that “Trump“ tattoo removed.

Let’s talk about set design.

On MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Scarborough and Mika are seemingly sitting on a three-sided portico with hanging lights that sports a surrounding balustrade.

The view is the Pennsylvania Avenue side of the White House. To the right and left are gardens.

This means Joe and Mika live in a palatial mansion in Lafayette Square, the portico of which blocks traffic on the street, and where the Treasury and Old Executive Office Building have been replaced by flowers.

So…yeah.
