Most bigots are absolute blockheads, and I find it genuinely insulting that I have to engage with them in any capacity, much less fight them for the scraps they call human rights.

Have to admit the Paris Review was better when the CIA funded it.

The CIA is also responsible for the millions of identical MFA novels about young college students in small towns that may or may not be in Iowa.

I think the “ugly Christmas sweater“ phenomenon, which began in the 90s, was the product of a phenomenon I don’t like very much:

Embarrassment at white ethnic immigrant heritage (demonstrated by discomfort with polka, ethnic foodways, etc.) and embarrassment about grandma.

But I resent the implication that calling something “holiday” makes it inclusive, that a red and green Starbucks cup is somehow secular. I grew up in a world where these things were not expected to be For Us and no one insisted they were. Do you know how freeing that is?

Let’s be honest: nothing Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin have done in the last 56 years justifies the tremendous cost of bringing them back from the moon. NASA should’ve spared the long-suffering taxpayer and left them up there

If you're the kind of person who yells at mentally ill homeless people to "shut the fuck up" or anything like that I think actually you should be tarred and feathered like a colonial era tax collector

the new ralph lauren x tópa collection??? i'm going to scream.
