It really is the darkest timeline. It’s especially aggravating to me that they use the “poor mouth” excuse to deny necessary and proven-effective government services to the poorest of our citizens. Let’s be clear here. The United States is not poor, and the U.S. Government is not poor.

This guy is seriously ok with more kids not having access to FOOD. FOOD!

What kind of black hearted evil person thinks that the biggest problem facing poor people is too much food from the government?

For a long time now there’s been two phrases that run through my head at least once per day when reading news about this clusterfuck of an administration. “What the actual fuck?!?” and “What the fuck is wrong with you people?!?”. Sigh. Everything is horrible.

Sadly, as long as people are trying to hack their phones and personal accounts to try and get stuff like their nudes, it is about the only protection they really have. It sucks as they should be able to have some privacy and send partners nudes of themselves to whomever, but this is how things are right now.

I’m preemptively depressed for all of the “well then don’t take naked photos of yourself!” news coverage this hack will produce.

To be honest, my biggest pet peeve with Yelp reviews is the ones that say “I’m a vegan, there was nothing on the menu suited for vegans!” Or, “I ordered vegan pho and it was so bland!”

Oh man, I love Yelp reviews that wax on endlessly about how this or that isn’t like that ONE TIME this person had that dish made by this person in some tiny village in Thailand and how it was totally the most bestest version of the dish they’ve ever had and so therefore this place in Covina isn’t “authentic.”

The only times I can recall referring to food as “authentic” is when I’m talking about Mexican food— and that’s to distinguish the taquerias from the Tex Mex style places. But the more I think about it, the more I’m pretty sure I sound like a pretentious twat, so I think I’ll just stop doing it.

I hate that too, with all ethnicities of Asian food. When yelp reviews are like: “this pho wasn’t as authentic as the one I had at the Vietnamese restaurant I always go to”. Or, may it’s just not the same as the one you’re used since you eat it all the time.

Chootspa?

Many years ago, I took part in a reading for a script reading for Director X who was recently out of film school (who has since done very very well). It was a favor for a friend-of-a-friend, last minute thing. So I show up, given the script, it’s for maybe 10-15 lines of dialogue, character description is for a young…

Or people who demand chopsticks at a Thai restaurant because they think it’s more authentic, even though middle class Thai people eat with a fork and spoon.

I’ve said many times that I can enjoy a very typical nigiri sushi omakase and be happy. I can also have the weird American-style rolls full of junk and also be happy.

It’s supposed to be a compliment!

The classic anecdotal example of a person with chutzpah is “a man who kills both his parents and then begs for mercy from the court because he’s an orphan.”  

As a cis white male, I support this message. While many of us don’t have our heads up our asses, there are far too many of us that do.

Oh for fuck’s sake.

The cost of his weekly weekend vacations to Mar-a-Lago is costing way more per trip than his salary. Seriously, for a guy that complains about government spending going amok, he’s causing an insane amount just about every weekend.

SELFIEEEEEEE
