Norm is ascending
Norman Finkelstein complains about how he claims recent immigrants are all on food stamps and go to stores to buy "bags of salmon," and his best friend who is a doctor told him how immigrants go to the hospital for a cough or headache because "it's all free."
Norman Finkelstein: "I walk into a supermarket, and I have to say, it gets a little bit under my skin, I'm the only one paying with money. Everybody's on food stamps. It does get under my skin. Because I see them buy these bags of salmon, $100... and they're paying everything with food stamps, it gets under my skin. And they're all very recently here, as last week."
They're going to troubleshoot this technology on disabled people until it's better than our baseline and then pump it out to the masses.
Amazing achievement that unfortunately will be the platform for the Mark of the Beast.
Haven't seen this level of comedic timing and skill since Nixon
Vance absolutely bombs a question from a young woman worried about affordability
Q: I'm the VP of TPUSA at Texas Christian University. I keep hearing from Republicans that I should get married and have children. But how can I own a home and raise a family right now when it's so expensive?
Vance: Thanks for your question. First, let me point out that I've only been asked about Jon Husted's ass once tonight.
Just be yourself
Before Hollywood, I was living in a van in Hawaii and waiting tables at Bubba Gump Shrimp Company. One day, the incredible Rae Dawn Chong walked into the restaurant, and naturally, I went up to her table and said, “Hey, you’re a movie star! What are you doing here?”
She asked if I could act, and I said, “Fuck yeah, put me in your movie!”
She asked for my phone number. The only problem was I didn’t have one. So I gave her my buddy Mike’s number instead. A couple days later, Mike casually mentions, “Oh, by the way, someone called you.” ARE YOU KIDDING ME, MIKE?!
I called her back, and sure enough, she was serious. I drove over to pick up the script, went back to Mike’s house, and read all 120 pages three times in a row. First script I’d ever read. My character's name was Devon, and I remember thinking, “Sweet! I could totally play a Devon!”
I showed up to the audition with every line and inflection mapped out in pencil. Rae told me I could act and offered me the part. I asked if we were shooting in Hawaii. Nope. Los Angeles.
I had about $60 to my name, a bag of clothes, and some rollerblades.
Then Rae told me they'd fly me out. And I remember thinking right then and there, my life just changed forever. I'm going to be an actor.
That little movie was Cursed Part 3, a low-budget horror comedy that opened the door to Hollywood for me.
I'll forever be grateful to Rae for taking a chance on a kid working at a shrimp restaurant. Everybody starts somewhere, and this is where it all began for me.
Brown people think less "this is a program for the disabled" and more "I get a free servant and a mobile chair"
We need a specific word to describe this general proliferation of little discounts, micro-benefits, carveouts, etc whereby our society is slowly losing the entire concept that everyone plays by the same rules.
Paid off, my home is. Pay rent to the Republic on my own swamp, why should I? On a fixed income, I am.
Younglings, I have none. Fund their schools, I will not.
Bring up the 800 years I trained younglings on the Republic's dime, you will not. Nothing to do with this, that has.
Stolen valor has never been uglier!
“Every possible -ism and -phobia and moral impropriety has been ascribed to me since I began my largely pro-bono career as an internet girl,” writes Ivy Wolk.
In a new essay, the 22-year-old comedian and actor reflects on the way her dark thoughts about her own self-image are interpreted as “soulless edgelord fare” — and all the times she’s been canceled since she started posting her comedy online as a teen, including when children once decided en masse that she was a “whorish foil” to a famous friend of hers.
“As much as I wish for anonymity or a slate wipe sometimes, I am grateful for the perspective I’ve aggregated and the ways in which I have been challenged never to abandon my beliefs and my unbounding love for other people,” Wolk writes. “It cannot harden me, it cannot isolate me from community, and it cannot remove me from public life.”

You know, I was hoping that a sophisticated right wing dark horse candidate would emerge. Someone who could articulate our ideas for the mainstream and act as an anchor pulling the frontrunners to the right.
Looks like that's not going to happen.
It's going to be very interesting to see how Israel handles this. Pretending to be a democracy is less important to them (rightfully) than Jewish self-determination. Whatever playbook they deploy will be important to study.
My heart breaks for Brazil.
The country is like a cancer patient fighting for their life. They completed their grueling treatment, and when it was time for surgical resection it was discovered that the cancer has spread throughout. Barring a miracle, it is now a death sentence.
When the communists assume global control and throw all the imperfect people in our side in prison, we can finally win
