It's TACO Time for Trump... and he hates it. Great. Why this one sticks and why it's a lesson for us moving ahead. What about Elon? Is he sticking around? Why we shouldn't dance on DOGE's grave yet. Why "Drain the Swamp" makes perfect sense, if you're Trump... and how do we talk about corruption in a way Americans can understand? And the path forward for Joe has never been clearer. Time to do the hard work.

Steve Klabnik blogs about how AI views online have become extreme and frustrating to read:

What is breaking my brain a little bit is that all of the discussion online around AI is so incredibly polarized. This isn’t a “the middle is always right” sort of thing either, to be clear.

Drew and I agreed before Memorial Day weekend that it was time for a Just The Two Of Us episode of The Distraction, but it wasn't until much closer to recording it that we decided what kind of episode that would be. There is more than one kind of those, and while we were probably due for one of the loopy, pre-vacation, Oops! All Digressions episodes, there is a whole long summer ahead of us to fill with those, and still some really good playoff basketball happening. Between the fact of that dwindling season and Drew's latter-day return to NBA fandom, the decision was decently easy. It's a just-us episode, but this one is also About Sports.

Late in the second set of his matchup with French doubles specialist Pierre-Hugues Herbert, 18-year-old Brazilian player João Fonseca scored a point to even the tenth game of the set at 30–all. "Scored" is the most active verb I can use there, as the exchange only ended when...
