It’s a beautiful property and the cats are very cute!

My 7/11 went from 3.09-3.39 overnight

Fuck I should probably clean all mine I’m sure my shotgun and .22 are filthy.

I like the rare consensuses about what isn't Iran. The American people may not agree on much, but they agree on one thing: Iran is not in Mongolia (maybe around the edges a little).

I like how we are fairly certain it is not in the arctic circle. Not entirely certain of course but fairly.

I'm going to give the free trial a shot and see how it changes up my workflow.

The conversation about internal marketing was particularly interesting in the context of marginal efficiency and cost balance.
Graeber’s reluctance to acknowledge that capitalist efficiency is actually an important contradiction to his core thesis is the most frustrating aspect of the text to me.

My grandmother’s family was in that tradition, a Jewish family who started and subsequently ran a business in Philadelphia making metal edged boxes, the best shipping boxes (until corrugated cardboard ate our lunch). I have one stuffed with my great grandfather’s stationary in my office.

Good morning! Yes, this is he

Well it sounds like I have to put it back on my turntable and take another listen!

One was an American diplomat in the Soviet Union after being a smokejumper. The other was an economist who worked in international development in Africa.

Stop on the left. Chill on the right. That's what they say right?

Fairly good chance particularly if your family has a connection to the Philadelphia area!

I should start a request for the records of my great uncle, he was an intelligence officer in WWII who helped with the landings in Italy.

Limor Son Har Melech and her husband Yehuda in their Purim costumes.

Death, occupation, ethnic cleansing, colonisation: this is the Israeli government's version of Zionism and Judaism, 2025. This is Kahanism. This is the hegemonic state ideology in Israel. Only a minority of Israeli Jews pursue it (25-40%) but there's no coherent political alternative.

Woodside Deli in Silver Spring. I grew up going to that place, getting a tuna sub, and splitting a chocolate milkshake with my mom.

My aunt lived there while my uncle worked in the port, some kind of boat engineer job that took him to a bunch of fascinating places, from Hong Kong to Cyprus. But, Dubai just sounded miserable.

Thank you for translating into late millenial slang, a dialect I am far more comfortable in than the neologisms crafted by gen Z and Alpha

10/10 No notes.

wait what do they mean then

Victims of sexual violence on the times they were failed Victims of sexual violence on the times they were failed by the system supposed to protect them, from police and courts to safeguarding

"My attacker brought a claim for defamation against me, which I eventually won with the help of Good Law Project. I’m so proud this landmark win means other women can now rely on truth and the public interest, but it was a three-year legal battle that took over my life and pushed me to the brink."

If Marco waved his thumb between his fingers in front of your face would you think he stole your nose?

We moved a shitload of weaponry to the area over the last months. But the administration needs a post hoc cover story now that it’s clear it’s going more like Iraq than the abduction of Maduro.

the US is in this war because it wants to be in it. there are plenty of things wrong with US-israel relations, but they do not control our government or military. the man our nation elected president does

I’ve never been in an English class that expected everyone to enjoy every book we read. The expectation was you have to actually stick with the book and be willing to make a thoughtful contribution whether you like it or not which I think is a worthwhile endeavor in of itself.

There’s something so incredibly pathetic about the way that some people (journalists & the most internet poisoned specifically) will retweet a bunch of their own tweets deep in the replies of an argument.

The Fall and Rise of Reggie Dinkins is funny as hell.

I filled my wife’s car and 7/11 texted me to give me 25 cents off my next 3 fill ups. Fascinating way for them to prerun the price hike and sell all the stock they bought at the prior low prices

I'm fairly sure she was right after Crowder based on a cursory googling. Now I wonder what the OG Brain VA is doing because he's the one who did the Jekyll Jekyll Hyde song.
