i’ve actually always liked that about jewish communities- it makes god seems more cheeky and fun. like he’s looking down on this sort of work around with a ‘you are technically correct, which is the best kind of correct’ attitude.

A more existential question: Can anything vegan be described as “meat?”

What hand cream are you buying? I need this.

Check out the giant fishing wire that circles NYC so devout religious people can go outside during the Sabbath. The Eruv. Magical rules and loopholes can be silly. I mean you do you guys, it has no effect on my life. I'm sure God would really demand this.

The pope declared certain parts of the beaver to be fish, so the French Canadians didn’t starve during the winter.

(The question of whether Catholics would have reservations about eating, say, an Impossible Whopper on a Lenten Friday is raised, but not answered.)

SHUT UP I WAS POSTING THIS IN LAST CALL TODAY (with a shout out to you, of course) AND I’M NOT REWRITING IT.

He has obviously not argued with a private insurer to get a procedure approved.

Really, Dr. Shapiro? Have you seen our healthcare system up close and in-person? Because I have, and boy is it fucked by the football team. It’s largely unaffordable, and if you are poor, the quality of healthcare is not only sub-par; it’s ineffective. You need a job WITH BENEFITS to afford healthcare, but you can’t…

Racism, anti-abortion/sexism, homophobia, Muslim baiting, etc. are just more smoke and mirrors used to divide and conquer.

I knew that the usual suspects in the Times, WaPo etc. would be accusing castro of being a meanie but goddammit they outdid themselves with the shovelful of bullshit they’ve printed. Do they think Trump is going to take it easy on him?

“Conservatives”, republicans, fascists, whatever they are called, have a palpable disdain and hatred for working class people. Working class people or any other marginalized, vulnerable group that supports these monsters and their monstrous policies are just shooting themselves in the foot.

But that’s Shapiro’s whole thing: if you ignore the parts that make us look bad. That’s always been his ‘debate’ tactic: obfuscate your shortcomings and then throw out an army of strawmen and hope no one notices; when you start to lose, use ad hominems and complain you’re being attacked.

Let’s ignore his patently laughable, “You want a surgery? You’re going to be able to get a surgery in the United States.”
It may financially ruin you and but generations of your family in debt, but you sure CAN get a surgery. 

Alternately, hip deep in puss.

In their defense, they had to come home to you.

Damn it. Thank you. Castro seemed a little pissed. And he probably IS pissed that he continues to be expected to treat another white guy talking out of his ass with reverence. And if Biden can’t formulate a response to some legitimate criticism, clarify his policy, and stop interrupting everyone, thats on him.

“And besides the fact that Biden isn’t worthy of shining Churchill’s shoes...”

You’re even cooler and edgier than Matt & Trey.

Turns out, the real WW2 was the friends we made along the Midway.
