it's genuinely fascinating to me that "you cannot facilitate a genocide against a people and still expect their vote" is too advanced for some analysts to understand.

Tlaib told Michiganders to vote straight ticket in the 2024 election, even after her grandmother who lived in the occupied West Bank under Israeli rule died of old age and in the same year that Biden sent bombs to Israel to kill 18,000+ children.
Great job, Rashida. You will dine out on this forever but 100,000’s will not. At least enjoy it!

You’ve gotta be insanely racist to blame the election result on Arab Americans who wanted Joe Biden to stop sending bombs to murder Arabs

you might think that the blame lies squarely with a campaign that was so relentlessly opposed to any support for Palestine that they refused to let a Palestinian-American *legislator* even speak at the DNC. but no Bradley is here to tell you that the real problem is voters are too fucking stupid

and even if you are not worried about dying, getting the flu *fucking sucks*. do yourself a favor and get vaccinated as soon as possible.

(also mask in public! it works!)
not too late for a flu shot btw, flu historically often peaks in february and by all accounts it is pretty bad this year
Flu deaths exceeded COVID deaths last winter and we may be on track for the same thing this year!

I can speak anecdotally that at the hospital I work at we’ve had very low covid census. We test anyone experiencing respiratory symptoms, and we’ve had very few people with Covid who have needed to be hospitalized. Which is a relief because we are absolutely inundated with flu rn

Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.

I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

ultimately a lot of these guys have the personality trait where they encounter dipshit bullying (which is what a lot of anti-masking sentiment is) and their natural reaction is to make sure the bully thinks they are cool and shouldn't get lumped in with the rejects and losers.
Disappointed to see Jon Stewart & co joke about masking in public. I do it for my medically fragile daughter (Batten Disease). People not masking properly led to her getting pneumonia, which led to her being on life support, which led to me getting price quotes on her cremation just in case.

I don't know how many times it needs to be said that you absolutely should not let fucking "AI" anywhere near your legal contracts, either in creating them or evaluating them, but apparently it needs to be said at least one more time, so allow me to say it again, here, right now

As long as you use good ingredients and bake it well there is basically no combination of cheese, bread, and tomato sauce that isn't delicious
as a (virtually) lifelong NYer here's the deal: all pizza is good. deep dish rules. detroit pizza is goated. lunch lady cafeteria pizza was a joy. the only dubious pizza culture is california because it tries too hard but even (most) california pizza is fantastic. grow up
again chicagoans need to grow a set and stand up for themselves. deep dish is the superior pizza, you don’t have to do this cowardly whimpering “oh actually we like thin crust that’s cut into squares for no damned reason” thing. this is why the rancid packers have been clowning you for 30 years
