Hard agree. The best cities I’ve lived in have been full of all different kinds of people. Places that are overwhelmingly single culture can be nice to visit but I think I’d eventually succumb to utter boredom living there.
Chrystia Freeland's first act as Ukrainian economic advisor is suggesting they cancel Disney+
99.9% of acoustic cover songs are slow and boring and should not be on the radio.
Yeah well I grew up in a mushroom village, so I’m not really used to how you do things. We used big giant mushrooms as our houses. We used bioluminescent mushrooms as lamps. And we didn’t try to change the plan last second if the other person already made reservations I guess that’s normal here
Yeah, everything looks good. We just have a couple more questions about your last position as CEO of doin my own thang

The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.
Not really that unusual for an arts/entertainment headline pre-2010. Search engine optimization killed the stupid/funny/pun-filled headlines.
Nice! I have two 4001s; I really want them to have a 3001 brother one day
I'm still mad at that game for how shitty it was. I can't believe you (or anyone) finished it
Noooooooooooooo!
Nobody who joins ICE has ever had friends, enjoyed sex, or made another person happy in any way. They’re miserable bastards and they only want to spread their misery, to offload it. They will fail at this, too. Their misery will just get worse.
I have scientific proof of this.
Wiggum: They've committed the same crime in the same spot eight times
Lou: Maybe there's some kind of pattern, chief
If only the Toronto Police had some way of knowing in advance where the vandals will strike
Uh oh, stay away from boats, Timothée!
All the panics & long features about political correctness & “free speech” on college campuses - with real buy in from centrist pundits at prestigious mags - was always a ruse for this: right-wing control over universities

Q: So I wonder what you think about that, about the phrase “globalize the intifada” and what we've seen as some anti-semitism coming from the left-wing protesters. A: The first thing as you were saying is anti-semitism is a real issue in our city and it's one that can be captured in statistics, the ones that you're citing. It's also one that you will feel in conversations you have with Jewish New Yorkers across the city. And I remember one conversation I had with a friend of mine after the horrific war crime of October 7th. He was telling me that he went for Shabbat services at his temple and he was facing forward when he heard the door open. And he turned back with a chill going up his spine because he didn't know who was coming in. And that's more than a year ago. And then just a few weeks ago, I had a conversation with a Jewish man in Williamsburg who told me that the same door he would keep unlocked for decades is one that he now locks out of a fear of what could happen in his own neighborhood. And I think that this is something that has to be the focus of the next mayoral administration, is not just talking about it, but tackling it. And these are the conversations that have informed our commitment around increasing funding for anti-hate crime programming by 800% in our Department of Community Safety. To the question of language that's being used. I am someone who I would say am less comfortable with the idea of banning the use of certain words and that I think it is more evocative of a Trump style approach to how to lead a country. And-
Q: Does that just make you uncomfortable? Like the phrase globalizing intifada. And like the phrase from the river to the sea, does that make you uncomfortable? Or do you think- A: Okay, those are different. Those are super different. Q: They're not really. A: Those are like different genres. Q: I'm sorry, I'm asking so wrong. Then they're not really different to me. And to some people they are not different. A: I know people for whom those things mean very different things. And to me, ultimately, what I hear in so many is a desperate desire for equality and equal rights in standing up for Palestinian human rights. And I think what's difficult also is that the very word has been used by the Holocaust Museum when translating the Warsaw ghetto uprising into Arabic because it's a word that means struggle. And as a Muslim man who grew up post-911, I'm all too familiar in the way in which Arabic words can be twisted, can be distorted, can be used to justify any kind of meaning. And I think that's where it leaves me with a sense that what we need to do is focus on keeping Jewish New Yorkers safe. And the question of the permissibility of language is something that I haven't ventured.
I feel like I'm losing my mind. Here is the transcript of what Zohran Mamdani actually said about the phrase "globalize the intifada." This is his "refusal to disavow it." This is what has people terrified. Just fucking read it.

That looks pretty similar to Bits & Bites, a favourite party snack here in Canada.

God I am so tired of seeing this same weirdo pronatalist couple in the media all the time

I like that it's now canon that Mon Mothma did shots and drunk-danced to EDM at her daughter's wedding. #Andor
okay now that you all have gotten a taste of America's rational and predictable new trade policy, everyone who wants to build your new factories here just form an orderly line
Everyone wants there to be a grand scheme behind all of this but the terrible truth is that extremely stupid people are in charge and they have a fanatical devotion to wrong, childlike concepts of society and economics cooked up by right wing radio hosts in order to sell tainted dietary supplements
