Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) is right to want to scrap the debt ceiling. “Let’s get together, Republican and Democrat, and DO THIS!” Trump declared last week. The Tea Party was founded in 2007 as […]
A biblical verse advises that pride comes before the fall. It appears Target might have heeded those words. It’s a brand new day at Target retail stores this June. Consumers will find each retail location a little different than in years past. Instead of being greeted with Pride Month merchandise upon entering Target locations, the […]
Pavement is remembered as the epitome of ’90s slacker rock, southern California ironists who sang-talk impenetrable lyrics over meandering guitar licks, feedback, and toy instruments. With the advantage of hindsight, and with the disadvantage of living in a TikTok-ruled cultural hellscape where nothing seems that serious or that real, it’s finally obvious that Pavement made […]

Paula Bomer’s novel The Stalker is a poorly written book. The narrative voice is dull. It observes narrowly, always telling when showing would suffice. Its descriptions are crude, such as when it renders a woman’s sagging breasts as “extra butt cheeks.” The dialogue is flat, exchanged between characters who are more of a collection of […]
Gather round the campfire, children, and I’ll tell you a spooky, scary story about witches and the hunting of them. It was a time of turmoil and terror.

Greta Thunberg is grifting at sea. The moonfaced Swedish malcontent and 11 other Hamas supporters left the Sicilian port of Catania on the Madleen on the morning of June 1, destination Gaza.

MUSK-TRUMP FEUD DESCENDS INTO EMBARRASSING SPECTACLE.
