Just throwing this out into the void I guess
I make a sincere effort to never intentionally misgender someone, but we all make mistakes and if you notice me inadvertently misgendering anyone I would appreciate a little grace and the opportunity to correct myself

The best part of watching live sports is all these people telling me to place bets every 30 seconds while also telling me to be sure not to get addicted to gambling

If you feel the need to preface every single post with “DO NOT INTERACT“ addressed at everyone (as opposed to “minors do not interact “ which is fine) then maybe you’ve misunderstood the purpose of social media.

Not many people know this but since the Edmund Fitzgerald sank on a Monday, they made Tuesdays “TacoNite” and it’s been observed as such ever since that fateful day

The thing is nobody objects to people disliking AIPAC. AIPAC sucks! If you support Israel, there are better lobbying groups! The "cardinal sin" is in the weird way people have decided that actually 8 defecting Democrats voting to reopen the government was about Israel.
"aipac is bad" is a completely normal statement about a lobbying group that gets received as some sort of cardinal sin or a dog whistle for a pogrom

I have no idea what being a contributing writer to the New York Times has to do with a movie featuring Jar Jar Binks but I will continue to stand on this hill: The Phantom Menace is Bad.

It's wild how many people are wholly willing to straight up say "Israeli money secretly controls our elected officials and this no this does not make me antisemetic."

Cue 1000 jokes about how being a Giants fan is “Kafkaesque“
The Giants are firing coach Brian Daboll, sources say. A promising and frustrating season leads NYG to have an opening.
After another lead evaporated yesterday, Brian Daboll is out.
OC Mike Kafka is interim coach, per me and Mike Garafolo.

The thing to remember about TPUSA is it’s a youth organization and Charlie Kirk was aging out of that cohort so he got Logan’s Runned by one of his own

I'll just say it, it's antisemitic to characterize Chuck Schumer as the scheming, underhanded, puppet master behind a deal he voted against and condemned publicly. Senators are a law unto themselves and being in the minority takes away most of the wrangling tools a leader has.
