I know it’s beside the point, but, dear gods, the Oval Office is so tacky now.

I don’t agree with Eric Weinstein about many things, but I think his comments here are relevant, accurate, and worth listening to.

Meanwhile, we’ve spent ONE BILLION DOLLARS in just THREE WEEKS bombing Yemen.

Why? Ostensibly the justification is to protect global shipping lanes, but the underlying reason is we are conducting a proxy war with Iran on behalf of Israel and Saudi Arabia.

MAGA, amirite?

Were the pronouns-in-bio what was holding together late-stage capitalism?

In this essay, I will…

It’s kind of a relief to see everyone as angry as they should be, finally.

I hate this for us, but it’s reality and has been for quite a while.
