Liberals Get So Upset About Every Little Jeans Ad and Blatant Corruption Scandal

50% Left coverage: 4 sources

Some hyper-sensitive Americans love to cry buckets of liberal tears over every minor provocation, like the Sydney Sweeney jeans ad or how the policy of separating immigrant asylum seekers from their children has been revived. Why are they so scandalized by a woman being sexy and by scandals? It’s so predictable and pathetic how there’s some big uproar every time a cute young lady winks at the camera or a creepy old man who is president sloppily …See the Story

New Texas Congressional Districts

Coverage: 2 sources

- - Some people think this map looks gerrymandered, but we don’t see it. We also don’t see the innovation, economic growth, and kick-ass food scene that exists in this country, largely thanks to immigrants. Everyone, get your guns: Let’s kick out all the foreigners and shoot ourselves in the foot. - - - District 2 aims to “Keep Austin Weird” by taking away all of its voting power. But at least urban liberals and rural conservatives now share som…See the Story

I’m a Chunky Geometric Statement Necklace, and I’m Here to Solve the Woman Invisibility Problem

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

They say women disappear with age, but if that’s true, why do their necklaces keep getting bigger? Society shuns women with crow’s feet and crepey underarms. And honestly, I get it. Aging is grotesque. That’s where I come in. I give voice to the voiceless. When a middle-aged woman walks into Reformation, the salespeople barely blink. But if she wears a large mustard-yellow acrylic choker designed by a Scandinavian architect? She exists! You may …Read Article

The World Is Burning, But Want to Meet Up for Thirty-Four-Dollar Cocktails?

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Want to get drinks next week? I know everything’s kind of crazy right now, so no pressure. There’s a cool new bar I read about—fine, saw a TikTok for—that just opened downtown. The Gilded Beak, have you heard of it? “Urban aviary meets al fresco pretension,” the website says. Sounds cute. The cocktail menu looks pretty spectacular too. Lots of drinks with artisanal ice cubes, questionably sourced rim accoutrement, and six-to-twelve ingredients n…Read Article

Lest We Forget the Horrors: An Unending Catalog of Trump’s Cruelties, Collusions, Corruptions, and Crimes: July 2025: Atrocities 314-364

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Early in President Trump’s first term, McSweeney’s editors began to catalog the head-spinning number of misdeeds coming from his administration. We called this list a collection of Trump’s cruelties, collusions, corruptions, and crimes, and it felt urgent to track them, to ensure these horrors—happening almost daily—would not be forgotten. Now that Trump has returned to office, amid civil rights, humanitarian, economic, and constitutional crises…Donald Trump · Miami Read Article

Don’t Judge My Book by Its Cover

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Don’t judge my book by its cover. For the cover art of my debut novel, I envisioned a mysterious, foggy background with two shadowy figures grasping for each other but remaining barely out of reach. Instead, the publisher insisted on a pink background with an illustration of a baby giraffe next to a Ferris wheel. Don’t judge my book by its publisher. Romances ’R’ Us exclusively publishes contemporary romance, but my debut novel is hardly a roman…Read Article

An Interview with the National Weather Service’s Former Director of “Feels Like”

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Q: You were laid off from the National Weather Service amid all the DOGE cuts, correct? A: Yes. And they haven’t hired anyone new to do my job. Q: Which was? A: The National Weather Service’s Director of “Feels Like.” You know how when there’s a heat wave, you hear that the actual temp is eighty-five degrees but it “feels like” it’s ninety-nine? That was me. Since the 1980s, the “feels like” temp was based on my determinations. Q: And how were t…National Weather Service · Chicago Read Article

Excerpts from The Believer: Sacrifice Zone: Pattaya

The Gilded Age Was Created for Quirky Xennial Women Who Studied Theater in College

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Many don’t realize that The Gilded Age, the very grand and expensive HBO/Max/HBOMaxAgain show, was actually devised for a very specific audience: quirky early millennial women who studied theater in college and briefly tried their hand at acting before ultimately becoming writers. That the show seems to have mass appeal is surprising because it was definitely created for that very niche subset of people. How did HBO/Max/WhatAreWeDoing achieve th…Read Article

An Open Letter to Marge Simpson After Her Ventriloquist Debut is Booed by Her Husband Homer

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Dear Marge, You might have forgotten about the time your husband jeered at you on stage, as you spoke through a miniature wooden version of yourself. It happened in 1996, almost thirty years ago. Let me remind you of the circumstances. Your son, Bart, started working at a local burlesque house without you knowing. Upon finding out, you convinced the town of Springfield to tear down the risqué business at a town hall meeting—your righteous anger …Springfield, Illinois · Springfield Read Article

Thank God I Didn’t Vote for Hope and Joy

100% Center coverage: 1 sources

Several months ago, in the lead-up to the most recent Most Important Election of Our Lifetime, I wondered out loud whether we should choose the uncertain wish for hope and joy or the very real promise of bleak despair. These were the options that were being presented to us, and the choice seemed pretty clear. I know I don’t need to tell you which alternative won out, but I will anyway. It wasn’t hope and joy. So here we are today, living in a la…Read Article
