The United States of America is a fine place and worth fighting for.

I believe in the second part.
This is Blasphamy.
I have an idea that may be lucrative, and I offer it free of charge: a book of Trump iconography. It would appeal to members of the church, so to speak, and also to people who would like these things documented, to marvel at, and shudder at.

Yep. It's how I wasted my 20s.

If you wait for optimal conditions and a perfect sense of becoming the "ideal male partner", you'll always be single.
manosphere gives men really bad advice but stuff like "you need to be comfortable with yourself before others will like you" is also bad advice

Once again, Bluesky dating discourse has devolved into a circlejerk on how everyone ragebaited by this post is a Good Person for having a partner.

Attraction is not a sign of virtue. If that were true, most of MAGA would be single.
"Men need to spend money to get laid!"

Meanwhile, just the other day...

It's a little-known feature of smart phones that to have a phone call in public, you don't have to leave it on speaker mode and hold it horizontally.

You can actually put it in "phone mode" and hold it like a telephone handset for a more private conversation for everyone. Neat, right?

If you want to be an effective leader, your subordinates need to be asking questions, because they cannot act independently to support your goals if they do not understand your intent.

The modern reactionary movement is trying to square the idea that you can make fat stacks in the Trades and working on a farm, without doing any of the work required to do so.
You don't want to buy a farm, because you do not want to wake up at 4 am to deworm a goat whose past time is sexual harassment and assault
But if you don't have formula for the baby where will the ice cream for the weird statue man come from?

So I may have fucked myself over by getting dual nationality last year.
Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, just introduced a bill to ban Americans from holding dual citizenship. The bill says that to “preserve the integrity of national citizenship, allegiance to the United States must be undivided.” It’s called the Exclusive Citizenship Act.

Somehow I feel like single-party authoritarianism isn’t the panacea for elite accountability that some are making it out to be.

In Shanghai, I used to have a 30 minute commute by car and rental bikes. When we moved campuses, it changed to a 45 - 60 minute commute by bus.

Public transportation has spoiled me.
If you think this is an unrealistic commute for DFW, here’s one my old manager who moved to DFW from Iowa does every single day

To heal our divided nation I propose splitting Game of the Year awards into two categories:

- Game of the Year That’s 3D and You Use a Sword and/or Gun to Explode a Guy
- Game of the Year That’s Some Gay Bullshit Indie Meditation on Grief or Whatever

Yep. In some ways, Sicario is if someone made the dicks, pussies and assholes speech into a feature length film about the War on Drugs.

Mike Pondersmith, creator of the Cyberpunk RED tabletop game, which inspired the 2077 video game, said about the same.

Characters in the cyberpunk universe cannot change the world, but they can save themselves or those around them, and sometimes, that has to be enough.
even cyberpunk, which can be quite nihilistic, has a hope of saving yourself and the people you care about, of carving out a space where you can be happy and safe. and
liberal/progressive aesthetics are about *hope*. hope even in the blackest pits of despair. it doesn't mean you cannot enjoy movies like sicario, because they depict a slice of humane experience that is very real

What's funny is if you call Mexicans, Canadians, and Central and South American residents "Americans", they get VERY upset.
Like it’s one thing for a group of people to say “I prefer to be called this” it’s another to TELL another whole country of diverse ethnicities and heritage that you will now be calling them something else.

The Columbian exchange bringing untold bounty and flavor to the old world is underexplored. Potatoes, peppers, tomatoes, climbing beans. "This is authentic [insert country food]" no it's not, you're appropriating ingredients from the Americas.

This is kind of lazy protest.
In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

Some people are so anti American that any actions against it have to be good, no matter the actors who initiate them.
For older people it’s tankie bullshit and for younger— in some case I think it’s hipsterism

I understand why a lot of white liberals are like, fuck the south, because they think about the people in power who are mostly white conservatives. But that is only because of Jim Crow, voter suppression, a lack of real funding for Dems there
