Just a reminder with the holiday season approaching: If you offer someone a drink and they say, "No thanks, I don't drink" the correct response is not, "Why not?" or "Come on, just one!" or anything else like that. The only correct response is, "No worries. Can I get you anything else?"

“People say Trump lies. Yet they call him a ‘piece of shit.’ But he is not a piece of feces. How do they reconcile this blatant hypocrisy?”

To mark the death of William Calley, one of the perpetrators of the My Lai massacre, better to remember instead the late Hugh Thompson Jnr.
Thompson, a scout 'copter pilot, was the only one there who refused to be complicit.
It cost him his career and a normal life after. But stopped the massacre.

On 16th March, 1968 Warrant Officer Hugh Thompson Jnr was flying helicopter recon for a US attack on My Lai, an alleged Viet Cong-controlled village in Vietnam.
But as the attack developed below, Thompson realised he was witnessing something something else:
A massacre.
He decided to act. 1/28

Notice it's only Black athletes they do this to.
Meanwhile white men can be born with 20% extra lung capacity, webbed feet, and a daddy named Aquaman and no one gonna test their hormone levels and DNA when they keep winning at swimming.

After qualifying for the Olympics, Annet Negesa was told her natural levels of testosterone were too high to compete as a woman. She now says her treatment violated her human rights. www.cnn.com/interactive/...

Hi. I was away for a week. Hope everyone is doing well.
There are people who believe the reasons for my absence are shameful and disqualifying for full participation on public life.
Those people can snort my taint.
If you need help, get help. Don’t wait to be in crisis. You can feel better.

Seriously. Assholes like Andreesen and Musk spend so much money and time waging culture wars while Snoop is like "can I carry the Olympic Torch"
Snoop correctly answered the question: What should you do when you have enough money?

political media as a whole is remarkable for its lack of interest in policy—the output of politics—or the mechanics, processes, and institutions of politics themselves. obsessed with the beauty pageant because pageantry is the only aspect of politics that interests them & that they even understand
I don't want to make too big a deal of this, but as far as I could tell
last night news Harris clinched was broken by a combo of Daniel Nichanian, me, and Peter Hamby. Big networks and papers were hours late. That's pretty dramatic evidence of a lack of seriousness covering Democratic Party politics
