JKR more or less cemented the link between TERFs and racists when she went after that Algerian boxer: it wasn’t just that she didn’t fit Rowling’s idea of a woman, but very specifically that of a white woman

schumer looks like a bitter little goblin man with spine issues. he is shrinking every day. he looks like the paul reubens puppet prince from that one episode of 30 rock

I was gonna be nicer about this but I just can't. It's a tiktok style video in which Schumer advocates the US getting dragged into a hot war with Iran. The awkward attempts at wit only add to the absurdity. Potentially the worst video a Democratic leader has put out in the social media era.

“The government gets to render people it doesn’t like stateless” is not a position that has historically worked out well for the Jews.

what's important though is that the turbines are not woke. we are acquiring the most alpha turbines, the ones with Strong Aura, and these naturally cost more

The UK is low key weirder than the USA because the USA is simply dumb and weird whereas the UK is a strait-laced country that thinks the USA is dumb and weird, then proceeds to slavishly ape it.

i am rather hostile to the convention that a girl's name must end in a vowel, but i also get lots of complaints that the names in my books are too difficult, so i guess i gotta give on this one

there is nothing conservatives love more than hysterical hypotheticals. i have seen this when doing such mundane tasks as planning a party. they believe, at all times, that they are vulnerable to attack

Trump and the GOP blew up the Iran deal in 2017 for no reason whatsoever and then came back in 2025 for the exact same deal but worse.

i volunteer to be king for 5 years, then abandon my works to live in on an island in south america. it will probably take 10 more years to tear down all the scaffolds i will have ordered built, however. many must be given the blessing of hemp in this nation

We are going to see this administration escalate even further on immigration as they fail to hit the outrageous numbers that Miller is demanding.

the thing about saying "yes AI will take jobs but there'll be more jobs in the aggregate because a rising tide lifts all boats" is that, financially speaking, the rising tide really has not lifted all boats, at all, in the past 20-30 years

the fact of the matter is that it is much more fun to live life believing in ley lines and psychospheres and omens. it is also preposterously stupid, so we have to playact it in stories so it doesn't actually make us do dumb things like sacrifice our firstborns (which people are doing now)
