After this weekend's racist attacks on the EU, I've written a column about the moral obligation to stop posting on X.

Oh no, wait, I wrote it *two years ago* when it was blatantly obvious what was going on and how it would get much much worse.

I'm starting to wonder how much "the male loneliness epidemic" is just straight and bisexual women identifying low-effort, mean, and incompetent men and choosing not to date, marry, and tolerate them anymore

I can't wait until the United States cleanses itself of all the ugly traces of Donald Trump. Take his name off buildings. Remove all the tacky gold bric-a-brac from the White House walls. Bulldoze his vulgar ballroom. Restore MLK, Jr Day and Juneteenth at parks. #Fumigate
Donald Trump just removed Martin Luther King Jr. Day and Juneteenth from the list of free entry days at national parks.

They are being replaced with Trump’s birthday.

Somali immigrants make our country stronger.

President Trump is yet again trying to demonize people who contribute to our communities to justify his cruel anti-immigrant agenda.

Stranger Things S5 made me remember how lemon-lime Gatorade in the glass bottle was undefeated. Kids these days don't know about coming in heat-stroked in the summer, grabbing one of these cold bad boys, hearing/feeling that *pop* of the lid, and slamming it in one long chug before heading back out.

I’m not an expert in the law of war, but an order to kill injured people who were not posing a single threat to anyone would seem to me to be a possible war crime.

Saving now works for your team if you want to test it.

I need people using it to give ideas on what to make clearer, or features.

But it should function for you to save, and your team will show up on the leaderboard. 🤼
