I can't stop laughing at this post. It's perfect.
It always baffled me how these right-wing Catholics and Jews thought they could play footsie with fascism. As Chris Rock said, "that trains never late." Dumbasses.

“I often think how unfairly life’s good fortune is sometimes distributed. Why has fate given you two such nice children (excluding Anatole, your youngest, I don’t like him),” she put in peremptorily, raising her eyebrows, “such lovely children? And you really value them less than anyone and are therefore unworthy of them.” And she smiled her rapturous smile.” Excerpt From War and Peace Leo Tolstoy, Richard Pevear & Larissa Volokhonsky https://books.apple.com/us/book/war-and-peace/id460819556 This material may be protected by copyright.

I’m reading War and Peace, and you know, probably a lot more people would read it if they knew just how extremely cunty the dialogue is

It’s hard to overstate how much of this moment is driven by people who got a taste of accountability and were very, very mad about it.
It sounds like what happens when child actors grow up in an atmosphere where they learn everything they are is about self-presentation to please an audience. I mean I wish him well in grappling with that painful situation but it's not a movie I need to see
Ansari: "Every person in this country needs to be calling R members of Congress relentlessly. Of all of the issues that have come up over last year, all have been devastating, but we're talking about potential for nuclear war here. That is the language Trump is using & we shouldn't pretend it's not"
people split hairs about the genocide classification all the time, but Trump unambiguously wrote down his intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national group, and then he broadcast it out
hope we find out if it’s haunted
HORRIBLE. ICE is averaging more than one death a week this year. It's like clockwork. The last death reported was exactly seven days ago.

I say this gently and with love. The ppl watching the No Kings protests and saying “I have nothing in common with these normies, but I support the wine moms and fleece vest dads” are in denial. You are a middle aged bike commuter with a dog and a mortgage. You are these normies.
Went on a hike for a bathroom and passed a sweet elder lady making her way down to the rally area with a No Kings sign written on two paper plates taped together. The vibes are immaculate
