Haven’t been this angry about the collective failure of our society to properly address antisemitism in quite a while.

Elon Musk is the most dangerous antisemite in America
Elon Musk often amplifies antisemitic conspiracy theories. His power as Twitter CEO gives him terrifying influence.

there is a certain wealth level beyond which you basically never hear the word no ever again. That's the cutoff point. Not hearing no breaks the human brain. We are not built to afford everything and value nothing
They key here, I think, is the "very" rich part. This doesn't mean your aunt with the vacation home after a career as a corporate lawyer, or your cousin the surgeon. Those people are normal rich.
The brain warping very rich are the 8+ figure wealth people.

As someone who has spent more time with very rich people than anyone with good sense should, I dunno how to tell you this but there is no group that despises you and also wants to be you and also despises themselves for wanting to be you at this level, not even close

Today I am thinking about American journalist Marie Colvin and French photojournalist Rémi Ochlik who risked their lives to tell the truth about the Assad regime.
They were assassinated in Syria just for shining a light on peoples suffering during the civil war.
Let us remember.

When life gives you lemons, make lemon garlic salmon. You’ll need salmon, lemons, garlic and butter. Melt the butter, crush the lemon and garlic through it, pour over the salmon, and grill. Top with parsley and dill.
