If no one who knows him personally is worried then why won't he just say it? if he has stated it Google is making it difficult to find. The point of pride on diversity is funny to me because my point of pride is that I live someplace safe and the local schools are top notch, the fact that whites are a minority in the school means nothing to me.

I agree mostly, so it then becomes a question of letting posters lay out their ignorance in their own words or farm it out to those in the X sphere. What's the difference? When everyone became expert virologists and immunologists during covid changed the entire game. When morons who couldn't tell you the difference between IgG and IgM are telling you at the same time that the science is settled and must be followed is when I knew that I can declare myself to be an expert in anything at all.

But it's not four!!! It's two!!! * 😁😇

I don't have a dog in this fight, but there is an observation I would make relating to these X links. Very frequently they are from people that nobody has ever heard of, and generally for good reason. The links are always in support of the poster's underlying view. The problem is that they are rarely credible and contain vies and judgements that are ridiculous, with near complete ignorance of the subjects and context of what they suggest. I only say this regarding those I have noticed on issues I think I am quite familiar with. When I read those, I frequently find myself shaking my head and being amazed at the ignorance.

1. My “interesting perspective” on a Hamas alliance with the United States: I do very much appreciate your willingness to politically tango with La Commie Kay, but please don’t step on my dance toes! I never even so much as intimated that an alliance with Hamas should be an objective. I was merely challenging your silly perspective that Hamas posed some kind of threat to our American way of life. It’s akin to George W. Bush’s “They hate us for our freedoms!” insight. No, they hate us because we’re imperialist sh!theads who, in this instance, are supporting our settler colonial proxy state’s ethnic cleansing. 2. You “reading stories of” Hamas violence against Gazans: OMG…I think I just found your fundamental problem. You badly need to diversify your news sources beyond corporate media ones that are in the pockets of powerful Zionists. The hasbara propaganda is apparent once you compare different media coverages of the same events. The fact that you’re fixated on alleged Hamas violence toward Gazans to the exclusion of Israel’s ACTUAL GENOCIDE of Gazans… 3. How “most Palestinians seem to support Hamas” to you: I think you meant to say Gazans instead of Palestinians. It’s hard to tell what Gazans think right now because it’s hard to do polling in there. Their society has broken down so badly to the point that they can’t properly maintain death records anymore. I can only surmise that many Gazans are unhappy with what Hamas leadership has been able to deliver for them to date, most are simply preoccupied with surviving, and nearly all are understandably angrier with the Israelis performing the genocide on them. Gaza is an entire society of descendants of Nakba refugees, so their resentment is unsurprisingly deep and generational. 4. “The innate goodness and decency of Hamas” you think I see: Now you are crushing my tango toes. STEP OFF. This is reckless and libelous speculation on your part. I’ve never come close to suggesting that in anything I’ve ever wrote. In my personal opinion, many of the leaders and members among the military wing of Hamas are likely irredeemable sociopaths. 5. “The current binary choice world” that you live in: Why do you stubbornly choose to see the world like this?? The real world is wonderfully multifaceted and highly nuanced. You are a willing prisoner inside your own mind. 6. “The path forward” for a partnership with both Israel and Hamas: I refuse to lay out such a path because I insist that both the Israeli government and the Hamas leadership have forfeited their rights to continue governing. They should all be charged with war crimes, sent to The Hague to stand trial, and serve their appropriate prison sentences. 7. A Brief Posting Retrospective with Leh-nerd Skin-erd: All in all, I’d say our discussion so far is going pretty well, no? I’m trying my best to effectuate a kinder, gentler posting philosophy with you called “What would Muppy Do?,” or “WMD” for short. It helps that I’m analogizing our debate to a tango dance instead of a boxing match! We’ll see how long this lasts, though. I have my guarded eyes fixed on you…

Reminder. 😂

Haliburton is earning himself a spot as one of the all-time great clutch shooters in NBA history with this playoff run

Hey, you've got Finding behind you. So you've got that going for you, which is nice. You can stick with the intellectually honest back and forth of how reliable the media is and how Biden remained mentally fit for his entire term. A thousand Catturd tweets in a row doesn't begin to sniff that track record of stupidity.

One can only hope I think that's far from true. But he knows he isn't going deep in the playoffs without a QB

Serious question. No gotcha question. How do you feel about politicians who are broke when elected but in a few short years are multimillionaires?

Advice to Steelers: Deploy the slippery rubber mats.

Having insurance isn't the same as having State Farm. It's like getting the protection of Bateman when you need Batman. Maybe he should go do a podcast or something.

That's a forfeit.

Early June is probably the right time for the endorsement. If too early, no one is paying attention. If too late, there’s not enough time to fully take advantage of the publicity boost AOC’s name recognition provides. Now we just need an endorsement from Bernie… Trust me when I say that no one who knows Zohran personally is afraid he would impose Sharia law on NYC! Far-left politicians, nationwide, have virtually an impeccable record respecting the Establishment Clause. NYC is also the most culturally diverse city in the world and likely in human history. It’s a source of pride here. Being Muslim isn’t going to hurt Zohran like some outsider pundits stuck in the 9/11/01 worldview want to think. I’m actually begging Andrew Cuomo to dig deep into that Islamophobia campaign playbook because I think it will backfire spectacularly on him and because Zohran needs every potential advantage he can find in such a close race. Cuomo has already begun that descent with his recent “anti-Zionism = anti-Semitism” rhetoric, but we have less than three full weeks of campaign runway remaining. An Emerson College poll from last week showed Cuomo defeating Zohran 54.4% to 45.6% in the tenth round of ranked-choice voting. This essentially means Zohran has three weekends to convince 1 out of every 20 primary voters to switch their ballot order between him and Andrew.

Don't tell McDermott. He will try and play it safe and not even attempt extra points. The Bills have had 2 hail Marys work against them in recent memory and have a QB that can throw 80 yards. How many hail Marys have they tried? McDermott said it's too risky of a play...for the offense because the defense could intercept it and return it for a TD 🫩

I have a friend that was a sound guy for rock bands in the 70s and 80s. He worked with every big rock band, and saw shows just about every night. I asked who the best band live he’s ever seen. He instantly said “The Tubes”. I was shocked. But he described the theatrical scene. It must of been a crazy show, because that dude has been up close and seen Stones, Sabbath, Dead, Zep etc

We're still waiting on a good post from you. Keep trying, I'm sure you'll get there.

Isn’t that 2 points?

And the wind confusion coefficient

Starters are pretty much set, as are many depth guys from the previous season. The games are largely a bunch of back benchers and soon to be cut scrubs struggling to get a spot. Once the games end, 40% of the summer roster instantly disappears.

The damage Musk did is done, nothing he said in the last few days has changed that. I'll be the last one to ever buy an electric car but this idea that everyone is going to suddenly go back to buying teslas is just charter on a message board.

Strange. So an XP block returned to the far endzone isn’t 1 point? 😳🤔
