I am a firm believer that there are no essential differences between men and women, only irrationally/deeply nurtured and enforced behaviors and roles that are so ingrained as to seem natural. But they’re super super not!!

This was murder. Pretti did not initiate the confrontation. He didn’t strike them. He didn’t brandish his gun. They tackled him, beat him, disarmed him, and shot him.
It shows Border Patrol agents clearly taking Alex's firearm, running it away, and THEN executed him in cold blood by emptying a clip into his face.
Murder.

We have been told for nearly 30 years that America needed to tolerate mass shootings because the broad availability of guns would help us defend ourselves from an overreaching federal government. That day has come. The people who said this are supporting the federal agents. Many have joined them.

perennial reminder that it's fine to say "I don't like that" and not come up with a deeply contrived reason for why it's bad. it's ok to just not like it

i assume the avatar movies are very successful despite their bad writing and generic plots because the message couldn’t be simpler: humans will destroy everything they touch and it is deeply heroic to resist their cruelty.

it seems obvious to me that the mass spectacle of infinite media endlessly competing for every second of your time is leading a lot of people to engage less with their real lives as they become increasingly unable to handle any inconvenience or discomfort and use therapy language to excuse themself

we’re rapidly approaching a day when coddled americans won’t be able to consume any culture that is challenging or interesting in any way. just boom boom explosions and reboots like keys jangling in front of you.

incredible that the oldest scam in the book — “look away from the greed and poor leadership that destroy your chance to make a career, it is the [blanks] that stole your job!” — still works

My sense is that the “male loneliness crisis” is not really about addressing men’s emotional needs but rather the relatively newfound absence of having someone to perform domestic labor for you quietly in the background now that there is a longer gap between your mother and your wife doing it

nostalgia posts for 2008 make me so sad. I guess Obama hope is fun but otherwise that was not a good time. One day people are gonna make 2025 nostalgia posts and I’ll be equally confused

This all goes back to 2020. Biden was a truly awful pick. Awful in the campaign, awful at messaging even before the health stuff, an uninspiring elderly leader. Stepping down after that debate was the best decision he ever made. Kamala’s entire effort is the only reason the House is close.

Every day I think more and more of how disgusted John Brown would be by America today and I think a lot about what he would have done in this scenario.

i’m so fucking tired of seeing entitled (straight) men pretend the “women of this generation” are the problem for expecting their man to be an equal partner. the total lack of self-respect young men have today is sickening. if you can’t show up for a woman don’t expect any women to show up for you.

i think the big middle event between george floyd protests and covid that accelerated this hard right turn in elite circles was tech employees using slack to stage walk-outs and force concessions from management. tech bosses got a first whiff of organized labor's power and started reading mein kampf
Only in America could a white man with a current net worth of $2 billion see himself as part of a victimized group. 🤦♂️
