I don’t know who needs to hear this but Epstein and his friends are the only people I’ve ever seen use “Goyim” as a pejorative. When I was growing up it was used in either a tongue in cheek way, or in its adjectival form - “That goyishe dress - what, are you a pilgrim?”

The world is on fire, so here’s a commission I did for my coworker’s maid cafe!

Felt compelled to reply because I also have a strong preference for sans serif fonts. I make a point of always, always typing my drafts out in Arial.

My husband is always talking about how cool he finds the smallest Toyota trucks. Not unnecessarily large or cumbersome, but still fits all the lumber you need for your project.

I guess you also don’t spend 40 hours a week in a retail environment though, part of my job is listening to playlists of top 40 Christmas songs from November 1 to January 1

I stayed up all night trying to figure out how to explain my politics to people and the conclusion I’ve come to is I’m a Social Democrat (but not a Democratic Socialist) and that a core value of mine is Viewpoint Neutrality, at all costs, because the alternative breeds fascism which is worse.

She starts off the whole rant by saying she doesn’t support the ICE detention, as it is a violation of due process. Her argument is that Khalil is a criminal, but criminals are still entitled to due process. You may find her argument poorly structured or bad generally but that’s def her thesis.

Ever make graph paper out of a photo of the bathroom floor?

It seems pretty clear to me that she’s defending Khalil’s rights as a permanent resident of the USA without defending his actions. I don’t understand why that’s so controversial or viewed as a negative thing. We are all on the same team here re not deporting permanent residents without due process.

Gaza was going to cost the Democrats votes no matter what - if Harris broke from Biden, she would have lost a large percentage of the Jewish vote, which was largely in her favor (about 70 percent.) Her choice to continue supporting Israel was more strategic than people think.

I have actually felt more welcome here as a center-left moderate than I’d expected. This app is, fundamentally, polite - a nice change. The discourse just lacks in the kind of rigor that forms when you have to defend your opinions instead of just sharing them.

I try to understand these arguments but from where I’m sitting, the fascists won this election resoundingly because of Democrats purity testing people who diverged on one or two issues so hard for the last 8 years that people who were otherwise convincible Democrat voters stopped engaging with them

Yeah, I’m fine with Nazis staying in their own bubble and not shitting up the discourse here, but I’d also like to see more conventional liberal democrats, moderates, and Never Trump type conservatives over here to add some variety to the discourse.

I’ve always felt like the solution for this is for Democrats to spend more (ideally the majority of) their time and energy campaigning on economic issues without necessarily changing their positions on civil rights at all. Ditch the signaling, but keep the virtue.

I get why white supremacists etc support him, but like, his sledgehammer approach is exactly what a lot of people who “left the left” cite as their reason for defecting, only worse.

I honestly don’t know how so many people who purported to be against identity politics are still supporting the Trump administration. That’s the most confusing part of this whole thing to me.

The best thing about doing so many pencil sketches is that sometimes if I just wanna ink and color I can find a bunch of half finished works to complete.

If you want to do this for real I can hook you up with my mom. Good chance she knows what poppers are too!

Also, this need not be applicable for everyone to be a Problem. You seem to be conflating objective demographic trends, which I’ve also happened to observe, with me reading a couple of tweets or something.
