Well, looks like the unthinkable has happened—Zohran Mamdani will be the next mayor of New York City. As the founder of a bro culture clickbait site who has been repeatedly accused of sexual misconduct, I hate to see this city going in such an obviously bad direction. If New York City is no longer going to be an unaffordable police state run by crooks, I’m taking my hard-earned sex-pest dollars elsewhere.

As we all know, the worst part about eating pizza is how the cheese gets stuck to the insides of your pockets. I can’t tell you how many good pairs of slacks I’ve ruined just because I love pizza and I lead an on-the-go lifestyle.
Like most people, I eat pizza every single day. I’m way too busy to sit down and eat it as a meal, so into my pockets it goes, even if that means my car keys are always covered in tomato sauce, my wallet is filled with pepperoni, and my iPhone’s charging port is clogged with soggy chunks of mozzarella.
But what can I do? Not put hot slices of pizza into my pockets? Just hold it in my hands? I’m a busy guy. How am I supposed to complete all of my daily errands if I have to hold hot slices of pizza all day long?
Answer all questions in the form of a song title.
1. The Rob Base Postulate
Given that a number greater than 1(x) is required to make a thing go right, and that the exact equal number (y) is necessary to make it out of sight (x = y), what is the minimum whole number required to achieve both outcomes?
2. Three Dog Night’s Loneliness Proof
Let L = loneliness, and let X = maximum L, which is bad.
If, theoretically, another number (2) can be as bad as X , and there are no whole numbers since X that are more L, complete the statement: “X = ___”

Rachel Reeves’ tax hikes are sold as plugging a ‘black hole’, but the real aim may be freeing up resources for public investment, not balancing a mythical household budget
England is a constructed space — and the English countryside in particular is an ideologically constructed space. Right-wing concepts of the English countryside, informed by historical, cultural, ethnic, and class-based accounts, offer exclusionary representations of England. This is nothing new. The sense of a ‘timeless and forever England’ has often been invoked and weaponised by […]

What I’d like to capture is the effect of those choices economists make “for convenience,” to be able to reach solutions, to simplify, to ease their work, in short, to make a model tractable. While those assumptions are conventional and meant to be lifted as mathematical, theoretical and empirical skills and technology (hardware and software) […]

Beware the hungry grass. In more superstitious times, Irish people would attribute sudden sharp attacks of hunger to walking on féar gorta, ground cursed by the restless ghost of a famine victim concealed beneath. The Irish for ‘hungry grass’ differs by just a fada — an accent — from fear gorta, ‘hungry man’. We don’t […]

We've overhauled Drupal's industry landing pages to better showcase the real-world impact of Drupal across critical business sectors. These refreshed pages represent a new, more strategic approach to how we position Drupal for enterprise audiences.
These redesigned industry pages create focused spaces where prospects in specific industries can see Drupal solving problems they recognize—at the scale and complexity they need. Instead of generic CMS messaging, decision-makers in retail, healthcare, government, and other sectors now find pages that speak directly to their pain points, featuring case studies from organizations facing similar challenges.
What's Changed
Curated excellence
We are moving away from allowing agencies to book slots, to instead carefully selecting the best projects that demonstrate Drupal's capabilities. This means visitors see the most compelling case studies—recognized brands, innovative solutions, and clear business results that sell Drupal effectively.
