CHOTINER: So let me get this straight. Anti-racists are the real racists, is that correct?
THIEL: right.
CHOTINER: and the anti-fascists?
THIEL: right, they’re the real fascists
CHOTINER: So now you’re saying Greta is the Antichrist.
THIEL: …
CHOTINER: I think you can see where I’m going with this.

Amri made a noise. Guy glanced at her. For a second his face was blank, unable to understand her upset. Then some deliberate part of him caught up and he mummed sympathy, but she wouldn’t ever forget that moment of disconnect, when she was a misbehaving thing and not a person.

“They’ll die, but they’ll cause enough damage for our purposes. And this is in their best interests. That’s what everyone always forgot, when things got tough. Sometimes the future demands sacrifice. Hard work, privation.”

“.. Inside the White House, top advisers joke that they are ruling Congress with an “iron fist,” according to people who have heard the comments. Steve Bannon, the influential Trump ally, likened Congress to the Duma, the Russian assembly that is largely ceremonial.”

A post from failed real estate agent and local ghoul Chaya Raichik aka LibsOfTikTok targeting me. Text of the post reads:

“Leftist CA State Assembly candidate Chris Kluwe, who promotes the harassment of ICE online, was ARRESTED at a Huntington Beach City Council meeting earlier this year.

Chris was protesting a proposed library plaque that featured a phrase similar to ‘Make America Great Again’

Chris called MAGA a ‘Nazi movement’ before leaving the podium and approaching the council member, where he was grabbed by police and carried out.

This unhinged lunatic wants to be an elected official…”

Thanks for the free advertising, Chaya!

TFW you paid $1400 to see Beckett’s most famous work without knowing anything about it

One Star Review of Waiting for Godot on Broadway
I recently attended Waiting for Godot on Broadway and spent over $1,400 for two Row C seats (103 and 104). I'm a longtime admirer of Broadway productions and even hold a season pass for Shea's Performing Arts Theatre, so I came in with genuine enthusiasm and high expectations. Unfortunately, this show was unlike anything ! have ever experienced —and not in a good way.
What I encountered was not the artistry, music, or emotional storytelling I usually associate with Broadway, but instead what felt like an endless cycle of nonsensical conversation between characters who seemed trapped in their own madness. I tried-truly tried-to find meaning, symbolism, or even a thread of emotional resonance. I stayed through the first half hoping the second would offer clarity. But by intermission, it was clear: this was a waste of both time and money.
Keanu Reeves is an actor I respect greatly, but I cannot fathom why he would agree to participate in such a disjointed, inaccessible production. His talent was lost in a performance that defied reason rather than provoked insight.
To anyone considering attending: unless you are drawn to highly abstract, nearly incomprehensible theater, I strongly caution you against this show. For the average, educated, thoughtful theatergoer, it is far more frustrating than fulfilling. In my opinion, this was the single most disappointing Broadway experience I've ever had - an unfortunate waste of money and, more importantly, of time.

During a military-style raid on a building in Chicago’s South Shore, one resident heard a knock on his door.   It wasn’t the feds — it was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for help.

He let them hide in his unit for the next 3 days.
