Bad Pacifist, passable writer.
Meritocracy is a myth. Tolerance is a peace treaty, not a suicide pact. American was never great, but it's over now.

If every Muslim voter in Dearborn voted for Harris, she still would have lost Michigan.
If she had won Michigan, she STILL WOULD HAVE LOST THE ELECTION.
If you want to blame voters for current conditions, feel free to blame the actual demographic responsible for Trump and that is WHITE PEOPLE.

I've been in digital marketing for 11 years now, and had a majority of my social interactions online for nearly 20. Ed is right here. There is no value to comment sections that compensates for the moderation cost, especially for small creators.
every so often i get an email asking why i turned off comments and the answer is that I didn't read them nor do I care to have them sloshing around on my page, too much work

Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

being in any way impressed by hanania or seeing him as a voice worth hearing is definitive evidence that your brain is a perfect sphere
it’s been pretty funny to see Polis’ addiction to posting completely end any discussion of him as a potential 2028 candidate

I have been thinking and talking about Israel my whole life, and have taught about Israel, Palestine, and the Middle East since 2008, well before TikTok existed. I can attest that young Americans’ opinion of Israel has gotten more negative over that time, and the main reason is Israel’s actions.
Also apropos nothing else, public opinion was turning against Israel before TikTok went mainstream

I've talked about this when it comes to SSI fraud. I'd rather 1000 people fraudulently get benefits than 1 person be denied; others would prefer 1000 eligible people get denied rather than 1 person commit fraud (note: SSI fraud is EXTREMELY rare).
I would rather have a world where we all trust each other and accept that a few people will take advantage of it than a world where folks have to perform disability constantly in order to get the help they need. Let kids have an extra 30 minutes on the test, jesus fucking christ

One of the things that annoys me about security policies for most things is that companies are like "use this high security to protect yourself!" and then... just not make their own services compatible.
