Is the Times really going to keep doing this shit?

OMG, he has a Peleton! Omg, he has a Rolex.

WHO THE FUCK JUST HELD OFFICE AND WHAT KIND OF GOLD PLATED TOILET DID HE HAVE
Aside from everything else, like false equivalencies, which is the Times' Achilles heel, always, these two stories are a serious mismanagement of reporting firepower.
honestly if you wanted a Style article about Biden and inauguration, it was the trim cut of his overcoat which not many 78 dudes could do and might have something to do with THE PELETON

1/ I've watched (part of) Navalny's "Putin's Palace" exposé, and I suggest you do same. (It is subtitled.) It's half psychological profile/biography and half @60Minutes style follow the money report, citing rafts of documents, using drone footage. Now...

3/ "Putin's Palace" hones in on one...palace...estimated to cost $1.3 BILLION. But it's the pattern of how the money is hidden that's more nefarious, esp put against what Russia spends on its people in pensions and otherwise. Here's a @CNN summary cnn.com/2021/01/20/eur…

3/ This kind of direct and illegal pressure on DOJ (and Georgia, and god knows who else) to overturn election results isn't in the articles of impeachment but maybe it should be.

"Thank you everyone, let's do this again tomorrow."

Uh...are we sure this isn’t a black ops marketing campaign for a sequel to The Terminal?
I mean...three months ago, California had some of the best COVID stats in the country, also 😢
This guy is like scoring airport badges and getting people to feed him...but could also just head to Chicago itself, maybe?

oh my god i may stroke out from rage. Where was this thinking during GamerGate @alexisohanian?

Reddit under Ohanian was one of—maybe the—biggest engines of hate and harassment around.
Ohanian doesn't get to greenwash his complicity in the rise of hate brigades just because he married Serena and has a daughter.
