I've dealt with Amazon enough so that this prospect terrifies me. According to that way of doing business, I order a colonoscopy, they bill me and then come and take my neighbor's appendix out. But hey, at least delivery is free with Prime.

True nihilism: defining yourself by negatives and promising to fight for them. Doesn't know what he's for, only WHO he's for. Even Nazis had 'blood and soil.' This guy's got literally nothing.

I would love to hear what Egypt or Iran would say if they were hosting a match and other countries insisted that beer and pork scratchings be served in the stands.
Seattle will move forward with its World Cup “Pride Match” on June 26 despite objections from Iran and Egypt over the Pride branding. Both nations asked FIFA to intervene, but local organizers say the plans stand.

Sorry, Atlantic, but no. It is one thing to think such thoughts privately. It is another to express them to a co-worker, and yet another to shout them at customers publicly. One is covered by privacy, one rates quiet disapproval, and one rates public consequences. Go back and figure it out.
“Those of us on the left should be fighting to improve protections for workers of all races, and thereby for the betterment of people’s material conditions regardless of their views,” Arash Azizi argues:
Why the Cinnabon Story Doesn’t Make Me Happy
The left should be promoting working-class solidarity, not delighting in seeing workers summarily dismissed.

ICE Melts Under Noem’s Shadow
ICE isn’t just losing support; it’s imploding under its own cruelty, incompetence, and Kristi Noem’s vanishing act, leaving America questioning who the real threat is.

Steve Bannon being friends with Jeffrey Epstein after spending years doing his whole populist, “down with the elites” bullshit is so funny.
These entire movement is just criminals, liars, and sex offenders.

Is anybody in Trump's administration NOT a suspected sex offender, being investigated for sex offenses, or a convicted sex offender?
