i would prefer if the mad king did not burn the world down around him with his dying gasp. that would be my personal preference

The damage legacy media and the pundit class did making this assumption within hours of Harris’s loss has been done. Just last week a PhD psychologist was dumbfounded and skeptical when I said something in this vein. I may as well have said dragons are real or something.

can’t sleep so i threw on logan (2017) and what a timely fucking surprise this movie was. it feel impossible that it came out months after trump’s first election

so do we like. know. if iran has mined the strait of hormuz yet. or is the vibes-basis of this war total and complete

i am a gay supremacist. the rumors are true. but i also believe the rest of you deserve the rights that we enjoy

It would've been reckless and inexcusable to cause generational damage by illegally defunding USAID, NIH, HHS, Dept of Edu, and so on just to reduce the deficit... ... but spending and the deficit are both higher than '22, '23, '24. It was all just harm for harm's sake. The cruelty was the point.

fwiw I very much appreciate the outpouring of anti-antisemitism over the last several days. good guys gonna win.

a thing here is that i'm a tall handsome more or less traditionally masculine man getting hit on by women all the time who knows (better than them) how to fit a suit to my shoulders and wrists and has been out as gay since i was 14 but it's not about any of the rest of it. it's about that last bit

that moment when they both look in the general direction of the camera put the fear of god in me

gentile buds, if you don't want to talk about antisemitism on the left don't talk about antisemitism on the left. the conversation is going to happen with or without you. frankly i as a jew regularly don't have the energy to talk about antisemitism on the left! and so often i don't. it's fine

i mean i'm not a christian so it's none of my business but i have heard stories that christians used to kill people for that kind of thing

However much John Roberts cloaks him in unaccountability, doing this remains a very serious federal crime and stories about it should say so.

this episode of drag race is LOVELY

gotta be real i was already losing my mind about the drag race makeover-ee who is a black gay jewish cowboy veteran being such a singular subcategory of person and then he goes "i was friends with barry winchell"

did you see my toasts. they're calling him the toastmaster general

unfortunately I must confirm that Trump personally denying Bill Maher a prize is one of the funniest things he’s ever done

i am not participating in this week's "do some people on the left launder their antisemitism through anti-zionism?" discourse but i am blocking all of the examples that yes they do so thank you for your service in posting them

i made a new instagram for posting food because i want to leave my old one the dead account it has been for a couple years now and man this shit really sucks ass now doesn't it

did you see my toasts. they're calling him the toastmaster general

Go out and sit on the lawn and do nothing 'Cause it's just what you must do, nobody does it anymore No, I don't believe in the wasting of time But I don't believe that I'm wasting mine

tell me about it

lol *JURY SAYS MUSK DEFRAUDED TWITTER INVESTORS BEFORE 2022 BUYOUT

laughed out loud at "we've always had boots on the ground." incredible work, no notes

how big do you think the mission accomplished banner's gonna be

I guess the plan is we'll just stop bombing, declare victory, and hope that Iran reopens the Straits, and if they don't, say it's somebody else's problem.

1. the war will be over in a couple of weeks 2. the war is only costing 1 billion dollars a day 3. we need 200 billion dollars for the war

american billionaires flipped out about their employees working from home and started a regional war that has led the iea to call for more working from home

granting that i am somewhat given to catastrophizing i think the three-week-delayed shocks are going to hit incredibly hard when they land

the truth is these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand

Really smart, thoughtful critique about how extremists are using a kernel of truth to launder their broader antisemitism, and how fighting antisemitism means confronting that kernel while rejecting the broader conspiracism around it forward.com/opinion/8140...

the maniac. what has he done. smoked trout baguette toasts with beet-lemon-poppy cream cheese spread, shaved celery, capers, salmon roe, dill, mixed sesame seeds, and poppy seeds, imitating a lovely brunch i had last summer

he was such a virulent bigot that i doubt the worms will want him

when someone starts talking about how the han dynasty plays in global politics in benefit of the us you can just block them. should, even

me: i am going to bed at a reasonable hour tonight, showered and snuggled up by 2 me: [practicing my karaoke rendition of bill bailey by patsy cline on repeat in the shower for 40 minutes at 3am]

been thinking lately i maybe start a quiet new instagram for people i've known for a long time and primarily just post my little meals. maybe an occasional selfie. it's a garbage network of apps but i feel out of touch with people i've known my entire life by not using them, it's weird

when i was a tiny kid a car on my block had a bumper sticker that read "i'm not fond'a hanoi jane" and i would not have any idea what hanoi or jane fonda were for years to come but when i did it turned out it was incredible advertising for her

this is what it was like growing up in los angeles in the mid-2000s

just saw a date night at outback steakhouse commercial. recession indicator

Somehow “anti-Zionism is not antisemitism” has morphed into “antisemitism is totally fine if you dress it up as anti-Zionism,” an evolution which by the way ADL and AJC have facilitated.

want to offer once again that frozen argentine red shrimp are considerably cheaper than lobster and have a similar sweet, meaty profile, the comparable mayo-based shrimp salad is incredibly easy to make, and it is one of my absolute favorite summer meals. may do it again on saturday

what’s he doing. s—… softening? softening the cream cheese?! to what end!!

this was the last-resort scoundrel play as the public turned on Vietnam and Iraq too — "Sure, there's no good reason to stay, but to turn tail in defeat would disrespect our heroic dead troops and say they died for nothing." Only took us 3 weeks to get there this time though
