casey newton is a bully and an asshole

he used to be a good tech journalist, then he figured out he can get easier attention slobbering on the toes of tech execs, just like swisher

how ironic that this bitter little bitch compared zitron to her in a cheap shot, these roaches will bully as packs

bluewave Dem cucks will gleefully elect this shitheel to the White House in a few years, smugly deriding everybody else while endorsing every word of Trumpist bullshit that falls out of his cursed mouth, patting themselves on the back for their "resistance"

This is one of my cranky old man schticks that I am right about. Eeeeeeeeverybody thinks they can spot the narc. No you can’t. They are actually good at their jobs and the idea that you can spot one a mile away is 1) hubris and 2) propaganda that works in their favor

our eldest wants to be a princess for halloween, but instead of a cute ballgown, she wants a knight's armor with fancy crests etc, and a sword

she says it's because "real rulers lead in battle, they don't sit in a castle tower waiting for news from the front" and uh

I am quite proud as a dad

oh yeah fuck him, he straightup refused to do anything even remotely approaching it because of his scientology crap which should have disqualified him from the role immediately

I tried to watch the reboot on AMC and the actors did their best but it just isn't a good story and now it really shows

there was just this instant attitude of "how dare you" at even the slightest hint of con-crit and she wouldn't listen to anybody, not even other writers

"cultural precursor to JKR" hits it on the nose

i was one of the other authors she sparred with on facebook and goodreads, and holy shit was she a vicious fucking bully

and as a pansexual cismale, I found her MLM homoerotica very fetishy and dismissive

A huge group of people are in a giant hole in the middle of a rolling field. There is a large sign with an arrow pointing to the hole that says "HOLE." Suddenly the group's attention turns to a new hole, complete with a giant sign with an arrow pointing to it that says "NEW HOLE." One person points to the new hole and says "hey look! Someone made a new hole!" The mass clamours out of the old hole and makes a bee-line toward the new hole. It's chaos. One person, now situated in the new hole says "this feels like how the old hole used to feel." Another person nods in agreement.

"Facility would bring $1.6bn investment..."
Sure, but 95% of it would be the cost of GPUs, so it would bring nothing to the local economy other than increased electricity and water rates.

Men do not have solidarity and have trouble with the concept of love and closeness, men don't cry in front of each other or say they love each other, it sucks!

my older brother damn near died from the toxic masculinity we all inherited from dad. after a nervous break in 2015, he finally got into therapy, and after a few years came out, married a great guy, and made peace with the family. I finally have a relationship with after 30 damn years.

This is big. It shows a big company knows it's going to lose more money working with Israel than it would gain from Israel. KEEP BOYCOTTING THE COMPANIES ON THE BDS LIST.

I rarely defend Americans, but we shouldn't forget that American GenZ started the student protests in 2023, were beaten to a pulp by police, got thrown out of school, lost scholarships, had their degrees revoked, etc. An Egyptian friend of mine joked "those kids were Arab Springed" Funny but true.
