Sometimes I forget that most people have not spent the last ten years listening to the worst people in the English speaking world for multiple hours a day.
I mean, it's fine. I just have to structure podcast episodes with that in mind.
I *do* drink and nonetheless it's burned into my brain.
With apologies to @codyjohnston.bsky.social and @katystoll.bsky.social for putting their link in the second post, but I think everyone who hates Laura Loomer deserves another look at that clip above. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YjJX...
The latest @somemorenews.bsky.social episode about Laura Loomer is great (link in the first reply) but I was quite disappointed that it did not include the moment in which Loomer was discovered hitting on a Nazi dude, touting her "great tits" and "Ashkenazi IQ." www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqO8...
Literally every threat that the US or Israel makes to Iran I think in my head βor what youβre going to kill their leader and slaughter a bunch of school kids?β Being monsters out the gate doesnβt really give you a good chance to deescalate anything
The reason I'm not great at board games is that I just can't be bothered to think very hard about what my opponents are up to. I'll just build my plan in isolation. It's monumentally self-defeating, but then they're only games. You'd have to be REALLY stupid to try it in international relations.
Most people rejected his message. They hated Freud because he told them the truth.
lmao thank you for broadcasting the cool shit he's doing.
Wouldn't have known this otherwise.
oh
βhow about we send the kurds to de-mine the straitβ - the greatest thread in the history of CENTCOM, locked by C/NAVCENT after 12,239 pages of heated debate
iβd like for some people to grapple with the fact that βthe most important election of our lifetime,β if you actually mean it, implies that the governance period following it is also the most important governance period of our lifetime, and adjust their demands/expectations/behaviors accordingly
life comes at you fast: one day youβre publishing snowden leaks, the next youβre getting second billing behind somebody called sneako
Lee and Daniel get a little crazy this week as they talk about Martin McDonagh's "Seven Psychopaths" (2012). www.podbean.com/ew/pb-vbqxb-...

Whenever her name comes up I think about that Twitter thread that detailed how she comes from a family of California water barons.
Oh yes I read this at the time. I can respect the researcher at the center -- plenty of good people have worked at the ADL and held their nose, at least before the reaction to 10/7.
My thought is more what a big budget TV show entails. It's a structural, not individual, critique.
They're literally talking to administration officials using him as an example of "left wing violence" to call any instance of anti-ICE protest "terrorism."
It doesn't have to mean anything to you to be effective.
I listen to every fucking episode still. It's fascinating just how limp it is and just how much they tapdance on their friend's grave.
They're going to use him as a symbol for years. Most of us have left him behind but he's very useful to them as rhetoric and to keep their movement together.
Charlie Kirk is a better tool for them dead than he ever was alive. And he was apparently very effective in life.
Also, imagine being the kind of goober that would pay twenty-five American dollars for a Charlie Kirk license plate and you understand the median MAGA voter perfectly.
Two scientists walk through a cluttered old-fashioned science laboratory. The female scientist says βAnalogue instruments! Paper records! Chalk boards! I thought you'd agreed to modernise the laboratory?β The male scientist replies βThat's what i'm so excited about: we have moved to cloud-based storage for our data!β They step out onto a balcony. She says: βPlease tell me you haven't built a library zeppelinβ This is exactly what he has done. It floats across the sky and he adds βIt's got a fax machine!β

I was not then and am not now closely privy to these politics, but even I looking at it from a distance knew that a big part of the offer was relatively centrist gays and k lesbians kicking their more radical cousins in the teeth for tax breaks.
The most beautiful woman on the planet judging people on their craft would be watchable even if it was about unclogging toilets. Cooking? Itβs like god made a show just for me
I just fundamentally don't vibe with Wes Anderson. I don't have any serious issues with him as a person or a filmmaker, but I just don't "get it" on some fundamental level. I did like Fantastic Mister Fox, which implies that stylistically he works better for me in animation.

"Without those constraints, it could be used for something else entirely β a blunt force instrument for prosecuting the administrationβs overwhelmingly peaceful opposition."

I'd be willing to give it a shot but I'd be amazed if it did anything but repeat "the people who protect us are the boys in blue" and "sometimes both sides are equally bad" over and over again.
I'm sick of the people in r/diabetes pretending they cut out all carbs. Come on. No you don't.
Can't remember who said it, but its so true. The second you start posting 'reasonable concerns' about trans people you cease to ever post normally again.
And, notably, working on behalf of a garbage system.
