Listen, I’ve got a weight problem. It’s no secret that I’m fat. That’s on me.
I cannot stand is people that equate “fat” with illiterate, incompetent, stupid or lazy. If you’re out there mocking people as fat, even horrible people, you are showing us how you secretly think about all of us.

it is an underrated miracle of the 21st century that we really did massively, massively reduce bullying in schools
My experience as well. So far we're 2-for-2 on kids having a largely bullying/abuse-free middle school experience. Not without bumpy spots of course, but light years away from what I endured.
My hot take: the anti-bullying stuff has really worked, which is why conservatives are pushing back at it.

for what it’s worth I got roped into helping out with my sixth grader’s extracurricular thing so I’ve had more recent contact with middle schoolers who aren’t mine than I usually do, and biased sample/biased reviewer/etc but my verdict is that the kids are all right

Reminder that "firing on the shipwrecked" is literally THE example used in the DoD War Manual of "a clearly illegal order"
“Leavitt told reporters at the White House press briefing that Hegseth authorized Adm. Frank Bradley to carry out the second strike, which reportedly killed two people who were hanging onto the burning vessel after an initial strike.” Wow. 12/1/25 thehill.com/homenews/562...

If releasing the files (the ones with an F, not a PH) would, according to Ben, destroy the Trump Presidency - then that's Ben outright admitting that those files incriminate Trump.

To recap: Jeffrey Epstein offered a NY Times reporter photos taken in Epstein's kitchen of Donald Trump and girls in bikinis *and* implored the NYT reporter to put this information in the public discourse in 2015

So Wolff could have tanked Trump’s 2016 campaign and didn’t because Epstein said nah?
NEW: A week before Donald Trump surged past Hillary Clinton to win the presidency, author Michael Wolff approached Jeffrey Epstein with a proposal to "finish" Trump's candidacy.
"Interested?" Wolff wrote.
Epstein, apparently, declined.
