He said nothing disparaging about the Jewish people. He simply said what the vast majority of Americans already know but are afraid to say out loud: You’re allowed to make observations about every demographic in this country, except one. Pointing out a demographic coincidence that there is a disproportionate…

It was a glorious episode, a masterclass in exposing idiocy and hypocrisy from multiple angles. The “black heaven” skit was the smartest bit I’ve seen on SNL in many, many years.

On one hand this was an entirely predictable shit show.

“There is a lack of leadership at the top” says the leader of one of the leading national anti-abortion groups.

regardless of Lawshe’s intentions, the incident was “still racism,” and “this was not a mistake.”

That... doesn’t make any sense.

He’s been pretty adamantly opposed to work from home from the start so I’d be surprised if he backtracked on this one, even if it meant losing a bunch of people. That said it’s an idiotic mandate for someone who thinks he’s the man of the future. I sort of understand wanting certain days where everyone is in the same…

Hear me out, WHAT IF we stopped caring so much about what entertainers, sports stars and models think about politics and diverted our attention to the thinkers and intellectuals among us for all things ‘thinky’?

The big thing is he became an icon in the black community and it blew up way beyond just him being a comic character. 

Cool. Don’t bother seeing it then.

I’m still waiting for my apology from my graduate school friends who got mad at me when I said the Hallelujah song performance was fucking embarrassing

So preachy and unfunny...the Kate “Hallelujah” bit might be the only performative nonsense that compares.

I dunno, I can’t see this in ANY other way than a guy making a joke about “maybe i’ll buy twitter” then impulsively deciding to do that, and then stepping on every possible rake thereafter.

How is social media a public utility

Aww. So I guess we just let the Billionaires, Nazi’s, Christian Nationalists and douche bags control the worlds largest propaganda system because people ostensibly known for imagining the future simply cannot imagine a way to tell their pew pew elf spaceship laser stories any other way but on this one Nazi Platform?…

I’ll watch the fudge out of that while not forgetting to drink my Ovaltine.

As someone whose never used Twitter before I’m becoming extremely judgmental of how these people spend days worth of time. Everyone wants to discuss this with me and I’m like “oh that thing that doesn’t affect me and only affects you because of arbitrary lines you’ve drawn in your head”. It’s wild people are like how…

“He’s not a far-right extremist, he was just motivated by far-right extremism” is a distinction without a difference.

I never signed up for any of them, because even in like 2007-8 when I remember everyone I knew getting into the whole Facebook thing (I’m an old), it just seemed like a terrible idea, a way to break actual community in favor of an ersatz substitute, comparable to video dating way back when. And that was before the…

I hesitate to submit this, as it is really lame after reading all these stories, but here goes: I am 100% certain that the cat I owned from the age of 10 to 24 visits me all the time. Ever since she passed, I will be lying down to sleep and feel a cat jump on the bed, take a few steps, then curl up at the foot of the…
