Americans hate Donald Trump, so you know what that means: It's time for all America's most powerful people and institutions to surrender to him

This is a funny example of the core premise of US foreign policy. Ie, the US & Israel are allowed to go anywhere on earth & kill anyone we want, and any response from the people we're killing — including just throwing rocks — is a monstrous Act of Terror.

I disagree with John Feeley that the people pushing for war with Venezuela are "too stupid to read their own history" about Iraq. From their perspective, the Iraq war was a great idea & largely a success, so why not do it over again with Venezuela?

I wrote a book about US media’s complicity in the Gaza genocide. It's available for pre-order. It’s a data-driven and, I hope, thorough account of how center-left media sold the American public on mass death in Gaza.

It's hilarious to watch Bari Weiss interview Woody Allen. She keeps trying to get him to agree with her about the Terrible Danger of Wokeism, and how college protests against Israel are a Second Kristallnacht, and he's just like, Meh. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xc9t...

Just filed my lawsuit today against Johnny's Selected Seeds. They *claim* the 5 pounds of broccoli sprouting seeds I purchased includes 146,323 seeds per pound, or 731,615 seeds total. But I counted and it's 11 seeds short. I will not allow this fraud upon The People to stand.

My take on the general idea of having for-profit companies involved in the field:
Letting Silicon Valley Geoengineer the Atmosphere Will End Badly
We already have plenty of evidence of what happens when things better left to governments — which in this case might decide to never flip the switch at all — are ceded to private industry.

A theory about vibes:
Human beings are deeply social creatures. Our need for a legible social order is rooted almost as deeply in our brainstem as our need for basic physical security. We need -- not want, need -- to understand who's in charge, who are allies, who are enemies, *how things work*.

It's funny to read about the old-timey racism of the Zionist movement 100 years ago. Rudolf Sonneborn, one of the most important American fundraisers for Zionism, said the average Arab "is inferior even to our average Negro...they are a cowardly race."

Lots of people are questioning Olivia Nuzzi's judgement. But while her affairs with RFK Jr. & Mark Sanford seem bad, what's far worse is that she thinks the "old glamour of magazines" can be resurrected.

Strong points from Sarah Hurwitz: "Our key mistake was giving Jewish children brains that think and hearts that feel, and then encouraging them to use them. This naturally leads them to sympathize with Palestinians. We should consider removing our kids' brains & hearts until they turn 45."
