I'm fine with Kristen, but I miss Padma--I think that in later seasons, she got tougher and more idiosyncratic, and I really enjoyed that. Anyway, I'm mostly liking the new show, +/- the Grand Central Terminal departures board and the excitingly spontaneous chats about the virtues of Dawn PowerWash.

In her defense, she IS the alpha.
I was just looking for something on Google and it said "People Also Search for Brenda Vaccaro." I don't know if I will ever write a novel, but if I do, dibs on this title.
I feel pretty clear on what journalists like and don't like. Thanks.
Yes, let's all pretend bad things don't exist and never discuss or analyze them. That always works out beautifully.
Good one in NYC.
There's a long, bad journalistic tradition: All conservative grass-roots political movements are fascinating heartland phenomena, all progressive grass-roots political movements are ineffectual bleating. This one is written off as powered by white female college grads--the wine-moms slur, basically.
He quotes a conservative activist: "What really motivated the Tea Party was a deep, philosophical disagreement with Obama about what government should be." Yeah, if there's anything I remember about the Tea Party, it's all the deep philosophers. Were they the ones holding "Go Back to Africa" signs?
A predictable #NoKings take from Jeremy Peters: A small turnout will be ominous, a large one will be meaningless, all protests from the left are merely a "primal scream," and none of them mean much. The NYT has always loved protests as history but hated them as news. www.nytimes.com/2026/03/28/u...

This is kinda fab! (And no, it's not AI.)
But what if I could have altered the course of history
I had only a few seconds to sort through my options: 1) Ask him for a job interview at George 2) Ask him to knock me over again so I could enjoy it this time 3) Figure out a way for us to become friends on the spot or 4) Giggle nervously and stare and go on my way. Readers, I am, sadly, a 4) guy.
Maybe it's time for me to tell the story of how I was on Broadway and 55th in the late 1990s and a guy on a bike knocked me over and he leapt off to help me up from the sidewalk, and I gazed up into a shockingly handsome and concerned face, and yes, viewers of FX/Hulu's Love Story, it was HIM.
As a rule, if you post a new initiative and the next four words from you are "It may seem strange," your political aptitude may not be fully Lincolnian. Voters, by and large, can smell pandering. And I do hope someone asks him exactly how this comports with "Let kids be kids." Whatever THAT means.
I think teaching legible handwriting is of real value. I don’t think making sure that all the letters in a word are connected serves much of a purpose anymore.
I hear you, but I think that nuance is lost on a lot of the people who hear this kind of smug barb again and again and again. Surely we have battles that are bigger and more winnable than (hopeless) fights over the hypocrisy of gay Republicans.
Yeah, no. Nobody gets a permission slip to yell, "Hey, f-----!", just because they wink at their gay friend and whisper "Watch me, I'm doing a great bit" beforehand.
Hey @kenmartin.bsky.social and @democrats.org, it would be great to hear from you about the homophobic posts in the last 24 hours from both @govpressoffice.gov.ca.gov and @drannieandrews.com. Is this what gay people should expect from Democrats this election cycle? Are you good with it?
