Dear English speaking WWII nerd using terms from other languages:
I know they’re homonyms said out loud, but you’ve got a real autocorrect and/or brain problem if you are using the terms “Shoah” and “Showa” interchangeably. Stop it.

Finally managed to see Kpop Demon Hunters (I've been meaning to, but the opportunity to watch with my nephew--his third viewing--was perfect).
Not really any surprises, but that was just fine by me. Still very good, and fitting in with the theme currently especially dominating animation.

You’ll often be hard pressed to find a better citizen of these United States than one who came from somewhere else.

The fucking irony of this Jew to cape Third Reich white supremacist talking points BECAUSE his grandparents could assimilate into US culture when whiteness expanded just enough for them.
(One day he might find that this same conditional whiteness he was granted is more conditional+ less secure.)

Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization

You need the third category...Nintendo.
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

I can only think of one person for whom this is true and it’s Stephen Miller, who for some reason will not rest till the US reproduces the violent xenophobia that made his and my ancestors flee eastern Europe. The rest of his family seems normal, though

My rule of thumb is if the company is named after something in Lord of the Rings, it’s almost certainly evil.
Since its founding in 2017, Anduril Industries has become one of the hottest companies in a crowded field of defense-tech startup.
Its fast-moving approach comes with its share of setbacks.

Instead of retiring, 3-5 GOP Congresspeople could stop this Administration cold. The culture in Congress that sees itself as the President’s handmaiden as opposed to the Article I branch has rotted every inch of it. Not just cowardice, a learned helplessness.
PUNCHBOWL: “.. GOP members messaged us over the weekend saying that they, too, are considering retiring in the middle of the term. Here’s one particularly exercised senior House Republican:

I am a little tired of being yelled at for this but apparently not tired about: heroin addiction is not RFK’s problem. He’s a sociopath. Most addicts aren’t. Honestly, walk into an NA meeting, grab the first person with a few years to be head of HHS and they’d probably do a better job than Bobby.
This is what happens when you put a privileged, 14 year heroin addict in charge of health. Duh

So now they’re going to be doing individualized re-review of tens of thousands of Afghan evacuees’ cases on TOP of the re-review of 200,000+ refugees who entered under Biden?
