A shooting at the journalist party was not on the bingo card that the freedom of the press foundation made in response to speculation that the US President was going to criticise the press at the journalist party.

A 31-year-old man is in custody. One Secret Service agent was injured. The Discourse is in full swing.

The DOJ says the shooting shows the need for a White House ballroom, echoing Trump’s earlier post on Truth Social.

The actor who played Ryan on The O.C. says the secret to crypto is male loneliness.

Before you know kindness as the deepest thing inside,
you must know sorrow as the other deepest thing.
You must wake up with sorrow.
You must speak to it till your voice
catches the thread of all sorrows
and you see the size of the cloth.
Then it is only kindness that makes sense anymore,
only kindness that ties your shoes
and sends you out into the day to mail letters and purchase bread,
only kindness that raises its head
from the crowd of the world to say
It is I you have been looking for,
and then goes with you everywhere
like a shadow or a friend.
