"This is why I cant have a conversation with younger Jews about Gaza. I want to have a conversation about data and facts and all they are seeing is this wall of carnage. And I sound obscene"

I’m still thinking about “quiet, piggy.” No president should be able to speak to a member of the press that way and remain president. That moment encapsulates how vile, misogynistic, and horrible that man is.

McDonald’s about to give him a six peace prize
Trump: "They don't laugh at us anymore. They respect us now, again. And that's what we want. We want to be liked. We want to be respected much more so than being liked. And you know in a certain way they like us better now too. Because the world was ripping off our country. Not sustainable."

Absolutely cannot wait to bust down the doors for a drink made by a company whose unionized workers are on strike in a store that doesn’t want to hire minorities anymore.
Beginning Monday, a Frozen Peppermint Hot Chocolate drink will be available exclusively at Starbucks cafés inside Target stores.
The chains are hoping the drink can drum up excitement from customers this holiday season.

The New York Times obit for Alice Wong doesn’t mention Covid or Gaza
It ignores two of her biggest causes because of political bias
Alice fought tirelessly for Covid mitigations
She fought for the people of Gaza
She rightfully reminded us that the genocide in Gaza is a disability justice issue

Today I went to the doctor to get blood drawn. I tried to hand the receptionist a $10 dollar bill for my copay, as my bank account balance is negative and I managed to scrounge that up. He told me they don’t accept cash and did me the kind favor of saying they’d bill me.
The bill that reopened the government didn’t protect affordable healthcare—but it did include a provision that could let senators claim $500,000+ if their phone records were subpoenaed in the Jan. 6 investigation.

Calvin Duncan was exonerated after spending *28 years* in prison; he tried to get his own case records from the New Orleans city clerk—but the office dragged its feet.
So Duncan ran to become city clerk himself, and yesterday ousted the incumbent.
