Almost always more interested in how we talk about a thing than I am in the thing itself.

Been working hard for over a decade hoping this would happen.

Biden makes my blood boil but I don’t begrudge him pardoning Hunter (who, mind you, also makes my blood boil).

Actually there 100% is journalism without PR but definitely not the other way around, sorry
The audacity to think you’re above the profession adjacent to yours. There’s no journalism without PR and vice versa. No one is shaming you as a freelance writer whose job is dependent on pitching editors. You’d have no bylines without a follow up

It is remarkable how modern audiences who have at least a passing interest in period storytelling have such a flattened idea of "the olden days." Just 0 appetite for all the juicy nuance between places and times! Get in there girl!
Britney mades choices that, to the uninterested eye, might have seemed tacky, tasteless or simple. You don’t have to dig much into pop culture in 2026 to find her choices echoing and her very real genius manifest. Please take a more curious, dynamic approach to your criticism.
Actually Britney did her own songs during Original Doll era and they weren’t very good… If she was left to her own artistic devices she would’ve ruined her musical legacy. Just look at her fashion, or the art she posts on Instagram - she has no taste.

He should break, now. His support will slowly, torturously erode if he doesn’t. He’ll only have to Zamboni more bullshit. And he’ll seem like even more of a coward if he waits.

I cannot articulate well enough just how funny this show is, like…seven seasons, not ONE episode is a misfire.
Permanent spot in the top 5 TV comedies of all time.
We have like a solid year to be honest with each other about Israel's overreach and move the overton window on what is acceptable for a Dem candidate to say about it. The next nom needs to be able to be critical of Israel and for softee lib voters to not freak out about it.

Hey so it's not "selling out" to endeavor to fulfill your campaign promise to pass legislation through Trump to make life affordable to your voters. That is politics. This isn't the stan wars.
FUCKING IMMEDIATLEY SOLD OUT
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
This messaging from Talarico has been consistent throughout his whole campaign.

Been thinking... the atmospherics today are totally different than a week ago when it comes to Kamala. After 2024 it was an obvious no, but now it feels more like "let's see what she has to say." If she's clear on Israel, Biden, and has a bolder POV, it's a conversation.
A few notes and cautions on 2028:
There is a very real (and often ignored) difference between who might make a good president and who has the potential to win the nomination.
People like Buttigieg and Kelly are incredible politicians, but numerically, they don't have the numbers necessary to win the nomination if polls stay even remotely consistent with where they are now. And you can't win the general unless you can become the nominee.
Harris has been consistently achieving 40-50% with Black Democrats and 30-40% with Hispanic Democrats. She commands almost every demographic, across nearly every region. She will be very difficult to beat. That isn't merely my opinion, it's math.
Also — people like Talarico, Ossoff, etc are not going to leave their newly elected positions to run for president. You can wishcast it all you want, but it almost definitely isn't happening. For folks like James or Jon to leave their very important posts to run for positions they aren't qualified for would be poor politics, and just a very, very stupid decision.
There will be plenty of qualified candidates running. But people like AOC, Ossoff, etc (though I really do like the former, and love the latter) aren't qualified enough this cycle to repair the damage done by Trump and his administration.
It is Harris' to lose. And she is immensely popular and helpful among the party, as demonstrated last night.

At a big gay table at Craig’s in WeHo and @kathygriffin just came up out of nowhere and made our day and took photos with us on *her* birthday like the generational legend she is. 🥹😭❤️🎂 Go see her on tour, she’s better than ever.

Yeah…. No. There is no “we” here.
What actually happened is normie Dems cleaned up in red states while progressives and DSA types limped across the finish line in swing states after getting a massive boost from the normie Dems.
.@cenkuygur and @AnaKasparian on this historic blue wave. "We won in South Carolina! We won in Kansas! This is epic. This is legendary. This is historic." #tytlive
