I don't like doing the "back in my day" thing, but if I'd have done something like this in middle school, she wouldn't have had to hit me because the principal would've whooped my ass instead

This is something I actually believe simply because I don't think that Ben Shapiro has the level of self-awareness necessary to realise how stupid this makes him look
Ben Shapiro: “When the president said deport all the illegal immigrants, I never thought that he meant that literally”

The man's entire career is him failing upwards in truly nonsensical ways. The only thing he's a genius at is making powerful friends in inexplicable situations
honestly one of the most striking things about epstein's emails is the fact that the man, described in many places as "a genius," is essentially subliterate

I think the dark thing about this is, of course a demon is going to lie to an exorcist with a media presence this way. Of course they're going to appeal to their pride and the sense that every problem in the world is reducible to the things they're personally afraid of
Need the bishops to take away social media from any clergy who post something said by a demon in an exorcism. Why are you posting something said by a LYING DEMON?

1. If the subsidies were never on the table, why did they let the shutdown stretch so long ?
2. No, it's not going to matter forever. It is going to matter for the next election though.
3. How are you going to run successfully on the shutdown when you got no meaningful concessions?

Everything makes the difference when the margins are this narrow, but also...the margins shouldn't be this narrow. We beat Pep's City twice last season with comfortable space.

It's oddly not reassuring to me that someone thought using decontextualized Holocaust imagery to make a spiritual point was a good idea, and that literally no one involved with the planning of the event slapped them in the head and told them they were stupid

My immigration law class in law school was *entirely* this, and we still barely covered everything
Just want to point out that this one little square (Employment-Based Immigration Law) is one of the most bureaucratically baroque and difficult things I've encountered in the law. Makes "closing on a real estate deal" look like napkin math.
