Gazpacho is the perfect evening meal on a hot summer day when you overate at brunch. I speak from experience.

IAD (Dulles Airport) is my local airport, is now delightfully accessible by public transportation, and has a lot to recommend it. Hearing Trump talk shit about it, and lie about it, is particularly galling. If you can’t appreciate the kitsch of the mobile cocktails lounges, that’s on you.

No matter how bad you think social media is for kids, AI crap is worse.

Greg Pak

Hey, friends! I put my big face in a video like the kids do! Time to join the @aimoratoriumnyc.bsky.social and tell @mayor.nyc.gov to enact a moratorium on "A.i." in the schools! Please share - and please tell the mayor you want a moratorium! www.nyc.gov/mayors-offic...

Yup. And I think it extends much further.

John Scalzi

I don't know how to explain to the people who pop up when creatives complain about "AI" to say there are legit uses for it just how much they sound like someone saying "Well actually fire is used to make bread" when people are talking about an organized arson ring burning down their fucking houses

Or, have him do it and still don't vote for him. What? You think he's not going to do some other nonsense if he gets the real job?

NEW: Cornyn pulls a Columbo. JUST ONE MORE THING. Cornyn won’t vote for Blanche unless Blanche rescinds the Trump IRS settlement. www.politico.com/live-updates...

To weigh in on The Odyssey after seeing it last night: 1. I wish some subtext had remained subtext 2. It didn't feel like a ~3 hour movie to me 3. Good decision taking a pass on the sirens' song due to "Didn't Leave Nothin' But the Baby" setting the bar just too damn high. 4. Really fantastic cast.

I think that people who knowingly make kids sick, and excuse it with self-aggrandizing language should also end up in Shepherd Book's (from Firefly) special hell where the other denizens are child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

ProPublica

Regulators have linked Mark McAfee’s raw dairy farm to more than a dozen recalls and outbreaks that left hundreds of people ill. “I’ve put a couple kids in the hospital,” McAfee said. “But here’s the thing: I’m a pioneer.”

We could live in a much better world if there wasn't a whole-ass political party in the US that is intent on reflexively being against anything that makes life better for people who could use a break.

Insane new research. Scientists gave asthma patients free electric stoves to replace their gas stoves, then checked to see if symptoms improved. Not only did symptoms improve, ditching gas was *better than medicine.* Details in today's newsletter: www.climatecoloredgoggles.com/p/electric-s...

Counterpoint: would not mind it.

Trump: "The Democrats are gonna terminate the filibuster as soon as they have a chance and then they're gonna approve DC and Puerto Rico as states. They get 4 more senators, 12 more congressmen, like 40 electoral votes ... you don't want to see me cry."

Trump spending taxpayer money to raise future energy costs for Americans should be front and center in every Democratic campaign.

Public Citizen

The Trump administration found $129 million to spend. Not for lowering electric bills. Not for disaster relief. To pay a utility company NOT to build wind power. The stupidity, wastefulness, and malice of Trump’s energy policy is beyond description.

This is great and all, but even better would be removing his ability to launch nuclear weapons against cities he doesn’t like.

Phil Lewis

Pool report from @svdate.bsky.social, who is at the World Cup ceremony: "The president walked onto the field at 1826 to a sustained chorus of boos. Ambient crowd noise was about 78 decibels. Booing brought it to 84."

My reward for pitting about four pounds of cherries: Rum Manhattan with tiki bitters and a couple of cherries.

The mystery is how GOP voters have been convinced that the politicians for whom they vote deserve the spoils of corruption and immorality they practice.

Robert Downen

Ken Paxton recently bought 3 Utah luxury condos worth $1.6 million. He then put them in a blind trust that shares an address with the Dallas home he appears to be sharing with a woman who is not his wife.

If you can’t believe a guy who cheated on his wives multiple times, was found guilty of 34 counts of felony business fraud, and continues to lie about an election loss, who can you believe?

Donald Trump suggests there was no foul play in Lindsey Graham’s death amid conspiracies – live

Also, this might be the moment the Chief Justice has some sudden concerns that he voted in favor of the POTUS facing no accountability for sending Seal Team Six to kill someone.

Matt Novak

“I will be asking for a Rehearing by the United States Supreme Court, IMMEDIATELY. This miscarriage of justice will destroy America if they don't change their absolutely insane decision.”
