BREAM: The Journal says percentage of delinquent credit card balances is 13%, the highest in 15 years. People are using them for necessities. Your message to them?
HASSETT: We talk to CEOs of the credit card companies all the time, and there's not any threat to them. People are taking a bit longer.

“I’ve been eating BBQ since before Ken Paxton’s first indictment” is a great joke.
I’d love to see Talarico swap out the punchline each time he tells it.
“…since before Ken Paxton cheated on his wife”
“…since before Ken Paxton was impeached by his own party”
There are hundreds of options.

AOC: "Extreme level of wealth inequality leads to social instability and drives authoritarianism, right-wing populism, and really dangerous domestic internal politics. That is a direct outcome of the failure of democracies over decades to deliver."

Benito is a threat b/c he makes art so alluring and enjoyable you want to understand everything about it and then you end up learning about sugar and slavery and colonialism and the Taínos and Hawaii and then you probably have some thoughts of your own, and that's why art is powerful and dangerous

As Patton Oswalt said eloquently, it only takes one Nazi in a bar to turn it into a Nazi bar. Kudos to the bar management. If you’re in Vegas, please go support Bottled Blonde

Executive orders are tweets on stationery, folks!
As a reminder, executive orders—while noteworthy and significant—are basically advisory memos from the White House, as the president does not have the legal or constitutional authority to issue edicts with the force of law
This new White House executive order says that the US Attorney General is going to prevent states from implementing democratically passed laws regarding climate change and clean energy. It scarcely needs stating at this point that this is wildly, unambiguously unconstitutional. Dictator shit.

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.
