I still think about this every time I pass the building in my neighborhood that was the outside of Martha’s apartment building

Frank Seddio deserves all the problems that are coming his way and then some

The vulgar bully described here, Frank Seddio, is also a Brooklyn Democratic Party leader. Take the L train to Canarsie tomorrow and help Seddio's opponent, Stanley Scutt, collect petition signatures so we can vote Seddio out in June! www.eventbrite.com/e/get-stanle...

There are dozens of us!

Oh mg

The kind of talk we like to see

My show is on

Seems like any number of snl ladies could do to her what tina fey did to palin and maybe get her fired

Worth noting. ↘️

Yes this

Kaschuta describes the New Right as a sort of "masculine cargo cult": Masculinity is in abeyance in the broader culture, but, the movement believes, if they all say the right things, adopt the right postures and politics, the manliness and status that are their birthright will return and life will be good again. Within this fantasy, Kaschuta says, misogyny has the structure of antisemitism. Like the Jewish person, the modern woman is simultaneously wretched and all-powerful, feeble and defective and responsible for everything wrong in the world. "There is this feeling," she says, "that women are inferior and intellectually incapable, that they should be relegated to care work but, at the same time, that they have this horrible, total agency over the world and that they work in mysterious ways to warp the culture."

Astute

I keep typing and deleting things about Netanyahu directly getting the Michigan shul attacked by literally killing a dude's family, and then turning around and saying it's exactly the same as attacks on Israel, but the truth is I can't figure out what to say that will not immediately get me banned

Yeah I did slow blink at you dude. It's a form of showing trust. No it's fine I get that you don't want to slow blink back

As everyone in solitary is being tortured

That’s torture

Renter nimbys get any sense of self-preservation challenge

Bunch of people trying to nimby their way right out of any hope of being able to afford to live in this city. Frustrating!

One of the reasons he would be one of the historical people I would want to time travel to talk to. Or be talked at by in this case probably…

Moby Dick is an incredible book because it is all of the things Chanda talks about in this video and also it is an excuse for Herman Melville to infodump (often incorrect) Whale Facts on his audience and I love that for him

Tweet from Ro Khanna: "You cheerled us into the war in Iraq. You called Pat Buchanan antisemitic for criticizing Israel's bombing of Lebanon in 2006. You are one of the loudest supporters for Netanyahu's war in Gaza. Your neocon ideology has done so much damage to America and people are on to it."

I mean Pat Buchanan actually is antisemitic - he denied the Holocaust - so if you are trying to argue that pro-Israel people are too overzealous in labelling criticism of Israel as antisemitism, Pat Buchanan is the last person you should be citing.

It's interesting that Congress is moving to restrict institutional investors from buying up homes, but there's no similar effort for health care.

Watching footage of this makes me openly sob. Disabled folks repeatedly put their bodies on the line in hopes for better. Needless to say, we’re not impressed lately.

Maybe there’s a cool California poppy or condor tie out there

The blood libel accusation highlights an element of Israel’s behaviour contributing to antisemitism that is rarely discussed. In defending the most horrible crimes Israel has spread this AS trope to millions of people who didn’t even know it existed, while simultaneously robbing it of any meaning.

Is the winner of the FIFA peace prize allowed to threaten the players as a little treat

The irony is that the subway is the ordinary way many New York City kids get to and from school. New York provides school buses through 6th grade and assumes kids will use free OMNY cards afterwards. The subways teem with teens.

We don’t always gotta hand it to Andrea Dworkin, but sometimes we do

1) horrific, abominable decision that leaves no doubt IDF discipline needs to happen in international courts rather than internally.

2) be cool if we could stop redefining the blood libel
