Breaking news, handing out a fuckton of money to save lives during a pandemic will make the meaningless “monthly deficit” look ugly. Great job, WaPo.

WaPo digital subscription going from $3.99 to $5.99. I signed up either just before or early in the Trump Admin because they seemed to be doing good work - much better than NYT at least - but not sure about a 50% increase.

It is super annoying that there is no newspaper bundle option.

damn, you can get a glenn greenwald substack subscription for less than that

I still don’t know how the offer came about, but three years ago I signed up for a WaPo subscription for $20 a YEAR. In perpetuity. It’s too good to quit.

I’m gone whenever they decide to jack up the price, though.

Lol Bari Weiss, lol

OK this is hilarious:

The Project Veritas employee, who was not identified and claimed to be a nurse, went on five dates wearing a wire, including the final one at a coffee shop in Chester’s neighborhood. It’s unclear when the dates took place.

Fuckin pathetic dude, you went on five dates with this Project Veritas girl without getting any action? Come on! Have some self respect.

The other explanation, that the Project Veritas girl did put out, it even funnier. Respect.

Charlie Chester, a technical Director at the cable network, was filmed by Project Veritas during a series of fake Tinder dates as he explained how they “got Trump out” of office

are there any other kind?

What if the media sucks because the people who consume media have sucky expectations of the media?

Only 11% of those polled strongly embraced all five of these values.

I really do not think “disbelief” is the word they’re looking for here.
