Under Shania law, DUI checkpoints will be everywhere. Any man of mine better walk the line.
Under Shania Law they will utilize flock camera networks to find out whose bed your boots have been under
Wake up people!! Under Shania Law the government will require everyone to wear men’s shirts and short skirts!!

Hey, ProPublica reporter Jake Pearson here. I’m taking over the account to tell you about my new story.

For months, I posed as a problem gambler on DraftKings to test the company's "responsible gaming" safeguards.

Spoiler alert: They made me a VIP — and I lost $10K. Here's how it all went down. 🧵

“Marxism” is a useful word insofar as it’s a cue that the person using it is usually not a serious person, or not engaging in good faith discussion.

Who else is up at 4am conquering their jet lag?

On the bus on the way to Spa! It’s super early and it’s a long bus ride, so I’m jealous that my beloved is able to fall asleep so easily. :)

I am reminded of the Covid times, when I saw a friend of a friend blame the coin shortage on the “liberal banks”. Yes, the famously liberal banks.
Ha ha I hate it here

Tip for everyone whose 14 year old was woken up twice during the thunderstorm at 4am after already struggling to get to sleep:

However appalled you are by this, it’s not enough.

It’s a frank statement that Trump and Trumpists are above the law and need not even plausible excuses to loot your tax dollars. It’s a total failure of our civic institutions.
And then there's this:

The settlement gets sweeter for Team Trump

In a newly-posted, one-page document, the Justice Dept details that it is now prohibited from pursuing tax claims against Trump or his family in the future

This was an incredibly enlightening thread, and helps me understand the Met Gala in ways I never had previously, and I am richer for it.
Pierre Bourdieu once argued that the question of whether something is art isn't answered by the artist's intention or even the object itself. Instead, the quality of being "art" is conferred by a community — curators, dealers, auction houses, audiences, etc. 🧵

What a productive but miserable day. Looking forward to when my weekends will one day be restorative again. Maybe a few years from now.
