The Epstein Files, The MAGA Circus & The DNC Mime Show   HEADLINE ACT: MAGA EATS ITSELF -The Epstein Files “Don’t Exist” — just like the tooth fairy, Pam Bondi’s conscience, and the orange menace's reading comprehension.
 -MAGA hardliners are fuming, accusing the orange menace of running cover for pedo-billionaires while tweeting about hamburgers.
 -Laura Loomer’s Eye Twitch now has its own spin-off podcast.
 -Alex Jones wants a revolution. Again. From his mansion. With supplements. -But they are still waving flags and pretending the orange menace never said he wanted to end the Constitution. -Plenty of them are shouting "deep state" when asked about their dentist appointment. -Quite a number are sobbing into Freedom Fries because a Starbucks cup had rainbows on it. “You said you’d drain the swamp — not flood it with bleach and Botox.” — A MAGA supporter, probably, screaming into a Chick-fil-A napkin.

    Because not every good boy gets a second chance. We’re losing them. Not just the coral reefs, the bookstores, or the ability to sit in silence at a red light without checking your phone — but actual dog breeds. Noble, goofy, gallant, stubborn, snuggly creatures who once roamed castles, fields, and couches alike. Many of these rare breeds are on the brink of extinction. They didn’t get a TikTok handler, a quirky rebrand, or a PR miracle like the Frenchie. And now? They’re quietly fading into history.   Why Are Dog Breeds Disappearing?   Urbanization : Farm dogs and working dogs don’t thrive in condos.
 Trendy Breeds : Social media turned the dog market into a popularity contest.
 Specialization : Some breeds had one job — and that job no longer exists.
 Low Litters & High Costs : Rare breeds often have small gene pools and expensive care needs.
 “Designer” Dogs : Doodles and miniatures grabbed the spotlight, pushing heritage breeds into obscurity.   Breed...

    In Williamsburg, before the rents ballooned and the irony calcified, there was a window of time when people believed they were creating something important. It was 1997/8 and for one humid, candlelit evening, we were in Notting Hill — or at least pretending hard enough that it almost held. This was before 9/11, before algorithms, before Uber and influencers and curated realities. Nostalgia has turned it golden, but even then, we knew something delicate was happening. Fragile. Possibly delusional. But pure in its own chaotic sincerity.   The apartment belonged to Caulder, a 29-year-old gallerist with no formal gallery and no formal income. He wore tuxedo pants every day and claimed not to believe in chairs. His loft had one couch, no television, a salvaged butcher block table, and a faint, inescapable scent of eucalyptus.   The party began late because parties always began late. The guests arrived in staggered waves, all limbs and linen, clutching wine bottles wit...

  Imagine a calico cat draped across a sun-warmed wall in Santorini. Behind her, the Aegean shimmers with timeless indifference. Tourists pause to photograph her, drawn to her poise, her insouciance. She remains unmoved.This is not a pet, nor an accessory. She is a living emblem of ancient autonomy—not waiting to be claimed, not interested in your approval. She may grant you a moment of her presence. She may not. Either way, you’ll remember her. The domestic cat’s arrival in Greece likely occurred through maritime trade routes, with Egyptian and Phoenician sailors inadvertently delivering feline emissaries to the Mediterranean. Though not formally deified in Greek antiquity, cats occupied a quiet yet meaningful space in the rural and monastic consciousness. Byzantine monks welcomed their company—and their utility. A cat, after all, preserved sacred scrolls more efficiently than any scripture. In this setting, emotional support was not sentimentalized. It was implicit, reciprocal, a...

  Back on July 3rd, participants braved the Madrid heat to race in the streets wearing heels no shorter than 5.9 inches! This is a part of the Pride Month activities and both runners and supporters came out in droves for the event. Phew! My feet hurt just looking at this!

  Few places understand the joy of summer like Spain. A country that bursts with coastal breezes, sleepy siestas, and midnight dinners under the stars, Spain is not a monolith—its regions are as distinct as their dialects, plates, and produce. From the zesty Andalusian coast to the green hills of Galicia, each area brings something unique to the table.  So this week, as part of the Peckerwood Summer Series, we begin our world culinary tour in Spain—a nation that treats seasonal produce and seaside ingredients like poetry. Here are our carefully chosen summer recipes, drawn from top Spanish home chefs, relatives and traditions, each one built for real life: full of flavor but not high-drama in the kitchen. Taste as you go, eyeball the measurements since most home chefs don’t measure they estimate. They are also formatted funky because I cut and paste from other people and it pasted weird here for some reason.    Spanish Regions: Agricultural & Cultural Highlights...
