Wanting to quit every 3 days is highly relatable, unfortunately

the pitt is west wing for doctors

Genuinely an extremely odd argument. "Why are people more concerned about the deaths of tens of thousands than they are with the deaths of hundreds? Clearly they support Hamas and oppose Fatah, they're deeply invested in Palestinian electoral politics"

This is where I am, predict that things on the right will get a little better after Trump, but not by much.

Would love to be wrong, ofc
