Why are people so keen to be assholes to strangers? Especially when they are way beyond their own limits?
Is this a post-COVID-lockdown, hate-the-world thing?
Twitter-brained “I have Google so anyone who says anything I don’t understand is dumb” thing?

2025 nearly over but we have a last-min contender for Worst Lie on a Critical Topic.
Birthright citizenship is constitutional law. Not a long-held principle. Law.
The EO is legally meaningless. SCOTUS can't uphold something invalid. The 14th amendment is the law.

Ever hear of the Leatherman multi-tool? They’re great. Like a super Swiss Army knife. Founded by Timothy Leatherman.

On the way home from the supermarket, you might stop for a snack. But is it really ‘South of the Border’ considering Taco Bell was started by Glen Bell, whose ancestors were from Sweden and England?

Unfortunately you can’t stock up on those veggies at the warehouse store Price Club; Sol Price sold it to Costco in the 1990s.
But you could try a discount supermarket, like Smart & Final, founded by Jim Smart and H.D. Hildane Final.

Samuel German’s employer was Baker’s Chocolate, a brand that’s still around today. Although the chocolate they produce is used for cooking, it is named for its founder, Walter Baker.

German Chocolate Cake is not German. (It has coconut!) It’s named after Samuel German, who developed a recipe for chocolate for use in cooking, German’s Sweet Chocolate. It was originally called “German’s Chocolate Cake.”

Sure is interesting how the NY Daily News features photos of Mamdani, his advisor, and Louis Farrakhan in this reporting.
But when they covered Nazi NY Young Republicans who said “I love Hitler” it was just shutterstock. No side-by-sides of all the white people involved, plus one of Hitler?

The ADL has not issued any reports, nor statements, nor even a single Tweet acknowledging the NY Young Republicans saying things like “I love Hitler” and “you’re expecting the Jew to be honest.”
The NYC Young Republicans featured Christian Nationalist Jared Taylor at an event last week. ADL? Silent

Someone posted on Reddit about a pretty bad Hanukkah section in their supermarket. Yeah, we’ve all been there, with the gefilte fish and yartzheit candles.
But the comment section is like eight posts worth of antisemitism packed into a single one.
