I really did think the Riyadh Comedy Festival would help bring peace to the Middle East

What’s unfortunate is you may desire to see people in power who look like they had a similar background to yours, but in actuality the ones who made it that far were handpicked by the elites in charge as they will support the status quo. Why for every Zohran we have a Bobby, Nikki, Rishi, Vivek, etc

This is going to be a super embarrassing footnote in our history one day. But living through and being powerless to protect anyone from these policies is super painful.

Black people five years ago: you know, they can kill anyone they want to out there

Everybody today: hot damn, did you know they can kill anyone they want to out there?

Do people understand the white supremacy behind Epstein Files release delays?

If it were prominent Black & brown people abusing white children, would there be such secrecy? Overwhelming evidence & MAGA's still hiding it from the public.

The nexus of child abuse & white supremacy cannot be ignored.

Azure and earlier this year Google Cloud too. Something something too big to fail.

I always reply STOP to short code SMS and it seems to work reliably. There are a lot of legal stipulations with SMS usage so they are usually good about unsubbing you.

But of course a brown man can’t even have 7 days of support and praise.

So many Trump voters / Trump-won areas voted Mamdani. Harkens back to 2016 when I asked Trump voters if they would have voted for Bernie had he won the primary; they all gave it a lot more thought than they did for β€œKillary.” They just wanted things to be better or different from status quo.

"But I won't because there's a lot of people in New York, and I don't want to change their lifestyle for it."

Or in other words: the rich aren’t going to leave no matter how little wealth tax is applied to them.

Hey man was hoping to catch up this weekend. Had some family stuff and had to see them in NJ. Hope you had a good conference, hope to see you out at another one in the future.

When they ball up and try to hire you back in a year or two, ask for a 500% bonus upfront. What happened to you is horseshit.

To be honest yeah. He’d probably too old now but Batman being the pinnacle of human strength and agility would need to built like a power lifter like Alan as opposed to the more lean takes we’ve had in the past.

The reason many if not most/all artists find themselves in this predicament in the first place, and the problems with the music industry as a whole. For every Prince or Taylor, there are 50,000+ who get snuffed out early into their careers due to these terrible deals with the devil.

Isn’t she a registered Republican and has had people with MAGA hats and Blue Lives Matter slogans at some of her private parties? Also the β€œcasual eugenics” referenced _is_ white supremacy, and I don’t understand why the article doesn’t make that explicit link.

Wow everything you’ve said here is stuff I’ve been feeling and saying forever.

My obviously Indian name, my nyc & nj accent, fashion, mannerisms, and my science-rooted atheism meant nothing after 9/11. Even today my identity can get stripped away at a moment’s notice.

Thank you for posting this.

Opinion | I know exactly what the vicious racist attacks on Zohran Mamdani are meant to do In the hands of right-wing nationalists, attacks on multiculturalism are a pretext for an attack on citizenship.

Unrelated to the NYT story, I wrote about racism as a political technology against Zohran, with a bit of personal experience thrown in. www.msnbc.com/opinion/msnb...

Then I’ll be the first to protest him when he falls from grace. 😬

I guess Rogan never had grace to begin with so maybe that analogy doesn’t work? πŸ€·πŸΎβ€β™‚οΈ
