"most americans have health insurance and don't like change" explains 90 percent of health care politics

I know I don’t look Jewish to most people so I have decided to change things up a bit.

Random normie on the internet: I liked the Odyssey but kinda wanted to know a little more about XYZ Every classics nerd, a giant evil grin on their face, pulling out a stack of books: WELL DO I HAVE THREE SEMESTERS OF ANCIENT GREEK LITERATURE FOR YOU

I think if this were the case we would be justified just calling a group of three Jews a court and yeet the person into the ocean.

the most misandrist political lesbian at mills college does not hate men more than a god-fearing Conservative Christian woman in the state of jefferson whose last three boyfriends all expected her to be his subservient fuckmaid and also be the breadwinner, and also cheated on her to boot

You will not believe what they are stanning.

The defining feature of American political discourse is that when liberals are out of step with public opinion it is understood as a failure of liberalism; when conservatives diverge from public opinion it is interpreted as an indictment of society.

Can't get numb to this: The United States is stuck in a war it started, cannot end, and may further escalate to no avail, having dismantled its diplomatic apparatus, depleted its military stockpile, and destroyed its credibility. A historic strategic mistake harming millions in many different ways.

Tyranny is domestic/child abuse on a society wide scale. You know Trumpism is the ideology of both rape and "Daddy takes off his belt"

I think it’s better that the republicans are missing a vote and a power broker.

one reality of life is that there are always going to be a significant number of adults who can't, for one reasons or another, hold down full-time paying work, and they need to be supported. an enormous amount of this is done within families or relationships.

Historian here! Historically speaking people didn't have local resources that could meet local needs! Globalization means agricultural centers can sell produce across the world for the benefit of all.

like, being Jewish doesn’t make it any less heinous to tell a fellow Jew you hope he has a nice seat on the cattle car to the concentration camps…it arguably makes it worse because he should know exactly how awful what he wrote was

Not a single living soul believes Cuba is menacing the US, and I don’t think they even expect you to. They just feel like they can do anything and no one can stop them

Fffffff, I think I know where some people are getting the idea that there are Palestinian Jews

Isaiah—

There is one policy field where policy making is based much more on “lived experiences” than tangible stats, and that criminal justice, which is why there is a constant demand for harsher sentences and increasingly well-armed police despite crime rates constantly falling

oh look we’re collectively kneeing ourselves in the dick while attempting to kick Canada again

The same dudes who won't shut up about 'reading theory' somehow managed to miss the entire generation of 2nd wave feminist theorists who spoke from personal experience about how the leftist movements of the 60s and 70s alienated women on account of the men acting like misogynistic dipshits.

And just like that you have destroyed the credibility of the FDA. Institutional legitimacy is incredibly hard to rebuild.

"Until then, Furnari is left with a 6ft 4in statue of a renowned racist, which he has spent $100,000 making, and which no one wants to buy." I can't stop laughing

descending into increasingly recondite and unnecessarily convoluted multiverse plots in order to justify an emphasis on fan favorites *wipes away tear* they really do have the spirit of comics

Oh I hate you for who you are

In a cosmic sort of way, it's darkly funny that the Middle East is on fire because the U.S. government didn't think going to war with Iran would involve going to war with Iran.

“Are our rabbis making the same mistake as the twelve spies by not encouraging all Jews to move to Israel?” First of all, when’s the last time you personally saw God throw a whole-ass lightning show while personally contacting you to move your ass somewhere? Because I sure haven’t in a minute.

How often do yall look at a discourse in progress, think “I have a thought” and then realize you’d rather extract one of your teeth with rusty pliers than post it?

No one has ever turned on their replies or DMs in response to being insulted about it.

I feel like it’s a good feel-good moment having Trump reminded that everyone hates him.

congratulations to Spain on (confused scrolling) winning the most Democratic delegates in Maine

Fucking nerds (laudatory)

Fucking nerds (laudatory)

I wouldn’t say Argentina kicked the UK’s ass in 1982.

This is a bill intended to be put to debate in the American upper house. You can't pretend this doesn't represent you, or it's unfair to blame you for what your elected representatives are doing. At least have the self-respect to own it.

Gentile: factually incorrect statement about Judaism Jew: that’s factually incorrect Gentile: why are you gatekeeping religion Jew: 😐

Canadian plane dropping water on the Los Angeles forest fire. Neighbors helping neighbors. Thank you so much Canada, we are sorry our current leader is an idiot.

"The story of a woman staying faithful to her husband in the face of constant and terrible challenges is super fucking lib, and meant to offend conservatives" I thought y'all wanted propaganda for marriage and conservative women.

You can make fun of Disney Adults all you like but the real fans knew the score all along.

No one would hide a cure for cancer because you would make so much money from it. In fact we have cures for various cancers. It’s called chemotherapy, radiation, vaccination, surgery, and some cool things in development as we learn more about what cancer is.

He could have chosen to discuss the Odyssey through a lens of either hubris or arête. Instead he chose violence.

“My lintention in referencing Jewish people on the marquee was to prod at everything being seemingly antisemitic with a statement that couldn’t possibly be construed as antisemitic.” oh so he’s a *clown* clown

Unintentionally revealing statement “through the media I consume”

Listening to teenager explaining to younger child what a moral panic and a conman are using “Ya Got Trouble.”

Is this an AI generated snoopy to complain about AI?

In all the brouhaha over Nolan's retelling of The Odyssey, you never really get to the heart of the issue, which is that if you were to time-travel to an ancient Greek theater to experience The Western Canon™️ as it was intended, you would be deeply unsatisfied, and perhaps somewhat unnerved

It has been very depressing watching so many self styled progressives decide Massie is a great ally actually because he’s also a conspiracist who hates Israel (and all other Jews)

So he’s eventually going to be rolled by a professional army?

I haven’t had Taco Bell in years, but I trust a company that is public about a problem over one that isn’t.

Delighted to discover the man in the picture is dead, even if it was much later than he deserved.

Taco Bell was one of the first companies to sign the "Yes, we WILL only buy tomatoes from farms that stop doing slavery" pledge with Coalition of Immokalee Workers. @immokaleeworkers.bsky.social

A quick word on Taco Bell: That's where we found the suspected lettuce, and it's not bc Taco Bell is gross. It's bc Taco Bell is REALLY GOOD at tracing product! Keeping track of exactly where they got their ingredients, & exactly what restaurants each shipment of ingredients went to!
