Your Friend Michael

I recently joked that once criticizing Israel counted as antisemitism, soon ONLY criticizing Israel would count as antisemitism. Now my joke has come true!

Lmao

Actually it's just Netanyahu that's the problem and most Israelis are good ✊🍆

Mamdami has left her no choice. If he backs Delgado she's turboscrewed.

If you live to be 100 and read two books every week from the age of 8 onward, you will have read 9,568 books over your lifetime.

In 2013 (most recent data I can find), the average public library had a collection of 116,481.6 items.

Putin made him look bad because none of these people are capable of thinking about what happens three months from now so now Trump is considering stuff Biden never thought of. International Relations has never NOT been "the girls are fightinnggggg..." but it's never been MORE so than now.

Person by person, day by day, we are going to isolate Israel until they stop killing innocent Gazans.

you actually can’t “do better” about the straw positions rightwingers come up with to justify their gleeful culture war reactionary bullshit. literally one account could say something cringe from a slightly left perspective on the Nazi app, and the Nazis will assign that to “every leftist”

Has any agency with fines that vary by income ever published an analysis of whether there’s any difference in reoffending rates according to level of fine levied? I’m curious if those $20 fines for 16-25 mph speeding are any less (or more) effective than the $100 ones for

FOR THE UNION MAKES US STRONG

And the reason I'm using "make out" and not "assault" is because the age of the people involved is not described. I think there can be a reasonable inference made though

"Hey is there something malevolent about the AI work I'm doing?" I ask while watching Epstein make out with two "girls" on his private island where an off-site breakout session from his AI symposium is being held...

"Jeff Epstein?

Yes.

With the island?"

And I'd argue this nonsense was why LBJ was a more effective president lol

"er yes, 'wrote' it" lol golden age simpsons

I'm gonna stop before I start doing a Chris Rock bit about the Haredim...

Yeah it IS harder to measure the political beliefs of Jews who don't wear different clothes and self segregate because we're that much closer to SANE...

Oh so after six months of yelling about our fee fees someone finally talked to ordinary NY Jewish Democrats rather than the out of touch fossils running our supposed institutions... Thanks!

And hell let's throw Biden in there too! Hey everybody I'm Mr tragedy! Never mind my legislative record, here I am feeling your pain because bad things have happened to me too. Of course he didn't write a book anyone read because nobody ever cared what he thought.

I mean, this is an increasingly big problem in our media and politics. Two of our last three presidents got big in the public consciousness off memoirs and embedded their political projects in their own person. The fact that Obama's were actually GOOD and self written don't change that.

‘They roll right over’: Many Democrats call their party weak and ineffective, AP-NORC poll finds A poll from The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research finds that many Democrats see their political party as “weak” or “ineffective.”

The voters aren’t aware that being tough with “the groups” is supposed to show big and bad they are.

I remember stupidly getting out of equities before COVID because the entire economy was going to literally shut down for weeks if not months and millions would die and....it....didn't matter?

We have legislators hiding in another state under threat, growing concentration camps, supported holocaust, our science has been gutted, millions about to lost their Medicaid lifeline, oh and we fired the person who reported the jobs numbers.

Interested to see what game she's playing.

Great job on the unsuccessful car that everyone makes fun of but we also appreciated your work on making our brand generally unpopular to the public. Please accept this money that we didn’t make selling cars.

Woke: The people want socialism!

Broke: The people want white Christian nationalism!

Bespoke: The people don't know what they want, you have to tell them what they want and make them believe it. AND you have to say that it was really their idea all along and compliment them on it.

Why don't we compromise and do both

by age 30 you should have:

* strong opinions about birds
* 12 different "when i get time" projects on indefinite hiatus
* sandwich(es) you fruitlessly yearn to have again
* a growing list of obituaries you're looking forward to reading
