my roomie's car is in the shop and he's got a Ram 2500 loaner, so I've been driving it out of curiosity. first impressions:

1. i have stopped using turn signals

2. my eyes no longer register whatever a "crosswalk" is

3. sober so far but i really think four to eight drinks would help me drive

This is Rex. Saturday he got admitted to the hospital with pneumonia. This morning he came home and we were left with a fat bill.

I'm taking mix/master/feature commissions to help offset the costs.

ADL Musk

ADL Musk

I spoke with 40+ sources for a look inside the Anti-Defamation League. Here’s some of what I found.

ADL’s gentle response to Elon Musk’s infamous salute was partially driven by his support of Israel. To ADL, that indicated he didn’t have β€œantisemitic tendencies.” (1/x)

β€œThe administration’s actions have amounted to asking migrants β€œto atone for their race, leave because of their names and purify their blood,” Judge Trina L. Thompson of the Northern District of California wrote. β€œThe court disagrees.””

it would be more accurate to say he creates the concept of gender and of transitioning within an alien race that had no understanding of sex before meeting him

pocket knives are incredibly useful tools. there's nothing wrong with carrying one. this seems like a silly thing to get angry about

despite everything, i still believe in the potential of humankind to create utopia. but it will require hard work, courage, and above all else extremely deep v-necks that go almost down to the dick

Russell Crowe is the perfect person to play Hermann Goering, a formerly powerful and imposing warrior gone to seed via years of fine dining and painkiller abuse

also if Hollywood had real balls they'd greenlight a movie about Himmler and Goering's turf wars in the early 1930s starring Crowe and Ryan Gosling (as Himmler). basically The Nice Guys become The Nazi Guys

the new Nuremberg movie where Russell Crowe plays Hermann Goering is being made for an audience of just me and nothing can convince me otherwise

Ed i made one request of you when you started and it was that you help me popularize the double V neck shirt. mankind will never take to the stars unless we invent shirts cut so low you can see a man's bellybutton

After the shooting, Adams specifically criticized Mamdani for wanting to eliminate the Strategic Response Group. Do you agree with Mamdani that SRG should be eliminated and replaced with something else?

I believe yes, and I'll tell you why, because you have the strategic response team to go to shooting incidents or (when) really, really high-profile crimes are happening or something. But the strategic response team has been used to tame some of the protests. You know, the foundation of American ideals is freedom of speech. People have the ability to express themselves, and when you have a heavy-handed presence from the police department, I mean, it's just not going to look good. It does not look good, and it should not be there.

i am going to die in a world that is more antisemitic than the one i was born into and it will be entirely thanks to what the israeli state has done in the name of fighting antisemitism. i think about this constantly.

They'll try but like, what is there to hit him on here? The cops failed to stop the shooting. The gun used was illegal in the state.

so when you…

β€’ force this tech on most everyone

β€’ block it from acknowledging trans people even exist

β€’ remove lgbtq people from human rights reporting & allow ICE to conceal info on trans people in custody

…it seems like a good time for cis folks to stop considering political β€œcompromises.”
