If you're Jewish and these people speak for you, fuck you too. You're failing the test.

I'm saying this to you as a Jewish person:
Fuck the ADL.

Broadcasting stupidity to the world

Thanks for ruining the country on your learning curve.

Maybe somebody can do something. Chuck should call his senator about it!

In my experience if you have to say you're a good guy you are not a good guy.

If you are a server, make them wait for their lunch. In fact, just never bring it out and keep telling them it's coming. Make them leave hungry and late for their next bullshit. 🙂

When Trump started the war with Iran, Iran was as close to developing a nuclear weapon as Trump’s GOP was to developing a healthcare plan.

Right??? The most un-rugged individualism possible - it makes me want to celebrate in custom beverages.

this is stupidest, bitterest, shittiest take I've seen in a long, long time.
It's WaPo, natch. Nice to see Bezo's rag in a cultural nosedive. I hope it lasts.

"(your drink is) the triumph of hyper-individualization over communal norms. When you order a dirty spiced chai w oat milk, you are not only wasting the time of other customers in line but are signaling that your personal appetites demand an elaborate, customized response. No wonder you’re alone."

ok I did not read this, I read the synopsis on reddit because I couldn't bear to give it a click, or my full attention, but it's as bad as I thought it was. Dude has a problem with individualized taste and joy and doesn't want to wait behind you in line for his black coffee. That's the gist of it.

goddamn is this a breath of fresh air after Allred 2024

no.

So we're all smarter than the Bank of America securities head of US Equity and Quantitative Strategy?

Thought I would have gotten used to it by now, but I’m still grappling with the realization of just how stupid the men running this country are.

Checking in on the president's family today as war spreads across the world and the global economy crashes

I'm old enough to remember both Iraq wars, and being in disbelief at what was such obvious gaslighting, only to have it confirmed to be gaslighting when it was already way too late.

Had to unfollow two accounts because of racist jokes… TODAY.
