Candy is dandy, but liquor is quicker.
That's because this shape is non-abelian and you're adding in the wrong order
Waitwaitwait I saw this in my TL once already and just noticed it is **NOT** from the NY Times???
That was basically the entire internet's take on Five Thirty-Eight's 2016 election model
MFW I hear any news that isn't totally apocalyptic
Senator, you should be aware that some deranged lunatic is posting unbelievably fucking stupid takes on your social media.
Direct your complaints to Joshua Solomon Soncino, the 15th-century Italian Jewish printer who typeset the first printed tractates of the Talmud that way, and Daniel Bomberg, who adopted Soncino's format in the first printed edition of the entire Talmud.
Idk, that "Thirsty" logo looks to me to be quite beyond the current generation of AI. They'd either render it as block text or some mess from the Latin Extended-D block.
Others have pointed out that this video could have been taken on Eid al-Fitr, which was about 3 weeks ago.
"Uh, Kevin, why'd you put together a table for 24 when they're a party of 12??!"

New York Post front page with a picture taken during the recent North American solar eclipse. The caption reads, "Rare eclipse captivates nation: AMERICA MOONED"

When all three of Trump's appointees to the Supreme Court strike down his bid for a legacy
And I bet they're taking advantage of the alone time
I think I get it, it means, "I want you to last me for the rest of my life."
Note that for any age except for the upper end of his range, he won't last for the rest of her life. But that's her problem, amirite?
Medieval-style depiction of "St. Felicia, patron saint of farewells"
c) all this calls back to past anti-semitic attempts to claim that Jews (inconvenient, existing) were not the real Jews (in Bible or weird ethnonationalist fantasies)
a) just as a matter of fact, most Jews are in one sense or another Zionist (a very poorly defined term for a lot of people anyway)
b) it's not ok to murder people for being Zionists either any more than it is to murder them for being Palestinian nationalists
Benjamin Netanyahu's sons are 34 and 31 years old now. They both completed their national service over a decade ago. (Albeit in cushy George-W.-Bush-like posts)
Biden misstated another country's name and had to correct himself.
And for most of the OT, we have Dead Sea scrolls containing nearly identical text that date back much earlier than the Septuagint.
Er, no. All of the major components of the Old Testament definitely predate the Hasmonean era. The Septuagint was completed a full hundred years before then.

or did you mean Azure?
the median voter is like “hell yeah I believe in Medicare for all. Also coal jobs, flat earth, abolishing ICE, bazooka rights, reiki”
Chidi Anagonye (played by William Jackson Harper) from _The Good Place_ saying, "Okay, but that's worse. You do see how that's worse, right?"
Yes, and if US politics were not 100% Calvinball now then that would mean something.
Funny thing is, this was even more true under Biden. The US economy was only lukewarm, and prices were higher than they'd been in recent memory, but we were still the envy of the developed world! Every country in Europe was on a worse economic trajectory than we were.
“He was deceived by Israel” is going to be the story so many people are going to reach for and I think creating this stabbed in the back myth is going to have some really bad consequences down the line.
