Gemini: Sure, your life choices will ultimately be your undoing, but you’re the type of stubborn that makes Fate weep so there’s that.

Israel highlighting how many 100s of aid trucks they will now allow into Gaza is a tacit admission that they were using aid as a weapon of war, by the way. seems weird not to talk about this

It really sucks that snob gatekeepers framed classical as high brow music so now any time you talk about it, people assume you're trying to signal intellect

But the music itself isn't pretentious, thats cultural baggage. I just like it when sounds are arranged in a cool way, like any other genre

Dundee had the highest proportion of trans people in Scotland on the last census and yet you hardly ever hear from them online. What's happening up there

this is sociopathic behaviour and I think we need to treat it as such! just because something has become easy to do doesn't mean it has become less creepy, or more acceptable!

I think we really, really need to question why so many leftish and left adjacent voices want so badly for the US to have been secretly, or “might as well have,” or “almost,” or “in their hearts and minds” on the side of the Axis in WW2

The other thing that is notable about this is that the moment he received pushback, Piers just collapses into a sputtering mess.

This class of 'pundit' has become so used to going unchallenged that they literally don't know how to deal with it. Embarrassing it took so long for this to be exposed.
