I'm trying my best.
When CNN goes the way of CBS News and she needs a new job, Collins will have the most impressive CV in the business, filled solely with Trump’s quotes about her.

Oh, look, I found a video recording of this announcement post:
I get that this is how you “have to” title things to get people to watch or read, but it’s such garbage and I think it just further degrades our media ecosystem. I am more and more bummed out by how much every aspect of society is getting shittier and shittier.
(I didn’t watch this, but I’m gonna go out on a limb and assume this content could more accurately be described as “Horrible people did some horrible things that are more or less in line with everything we already know about them.”)
This is a good line from Mark Warner, and absolutely true. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/05/28/business/treasury-trump-250-bill.html?unlocked_article_code=1.mFA.Xb2F.J6J3opW1ayYA&smid=url-share

I told you. With our new world of gambling on everything, this is always going to be a safe bet:
Not to mention the unbidden and unturnoffable “deals” tab that has appeared. It’s like these companies heard about the concept of “enshittification” and made it their goal.
Remarkably, despite having this notification setting turned off in the app for my “smart” electrical outlet, I just received a push notification promoting the brand’s Memorial Day sale. Yes, it seems the deals were simply too good to be constrained by respect for customers.
Reading in coffeeshops has long been one of my favorite things in life. But it only just occurred to me—on this visit to D.C. where I have a free day and my primary tourist objective is to find a nice coffeeshop to read in—that reading in coffeeshops is, like, one of my *favorite* things in life.
