Damn, I got some of my first porn and hentai through ebay, back when you had to send the seller a money order in the mail.

Given the glut of singing shows we already have in this country that we just can’t let die, I’m sure that this will a) be a success, b) be a terrible slog of one-note teenagers, c) be hosted by Ryan Seacrest, and d) have a new “contest” every month because even though Eurovision properly dispenses with the entire…

It’s true. Americans love to see themselves on the ‘cutting edge’ of everything (I won’t try to list the ‘everything’). But people here really don’t long for originality. They want whatever is popular but also approved by whatever tastemaker can bully and strategize himself to the top of Google search results. Also,…

As a European, I’m naturally not a Eurovision fan, but even I have to say... this shit can never work in the US. You will not even come close to achieving the particular brand of weirdness. Y’all are too culturally streamlined.

“It’s not a wise investment as the value is based on artificial scarcity. the producer can print more of any card they want to”

I’m not sure why you’re calling out Israel for this. There’s over 25 countries in the world including the Scandinavian countries, Greece, Iran, Turkey, China, Mexico, Bermuda, to name a few that have mandatory military service. If you cop out of a draft in our country, do you think the US govt says, okay sure, why…

...so, poor thing, she gets to hang out with her wife full-time now.

Math... we meet again.

You know, something really troubling is how so many people have used Palestine as an excuse to fully pull off their masks and allow their antisemitism breathe right out in the open.

Most pets can eat you. Depends how inattentive you are.

It’s not antisemitic to condemn violence perpetrated by the Israeli government.

I don’t know what people expect from her. You really thought she was going to say “Death to Israel” or something? The left has lost the plot on this and is careening toward antisemitism, especially with Gadot since she takes a lot of shit for being the most famous Israeli in the world at the moment.

Andrew Yang is running for office. Even if it’s just mayor, it’s mayor of a huge city so his positions on this actually matter and can have an impact. He was also clearly trying to cosy up to the Orthodox Jewish community of New York, which is pretty damn influential in New York’s mayoral race.

I picked a bad day to dress as an elephant calf.

Texas: every bit as worthless and stupid as Florida, but with less press coverage, because Nana hasn’t chosen to die there.

“Guy reiterates his stance that he’s had for at least the last 6 years, AV Club reminds you he didn’t have the same stance 12 years ago”

It actually does help that the character wasn’t originally supposed to be Indian, because it means there’s not that much that’s stereotypically Indian about his characterization beyond the general accent.

Good luck with that. Did you see what those scumbags in Philly did in order to make him apologize for one bad review??
