Extremely surprised it took this long for a public Rene Redzepi reckoning. Like, I didn't know, but obviously, right?

One of my closest friends from high school recently got their first girlfriend since they were a teenager and then completely shut me out of their life. Won't look at my texts; won't even respond to voicemail. I even checked online if he had died. I just wanted to say I am very hurt by this.

I think we all should take the (correct) position that being incurious or hateful about foreign cultures is stupid and pathetic. In fact, working to understand and respect cultures other than your own takes commitment, grit, and thoughtfulness. Knee-jerk racism is actual snowflake shit.

The Epstein regime cannot go more than a couple of months without destroying the lives of children.

I don’t even know anymore. War, the senseless murder of civilians, pedophiles in power, just a whole lot of fuckshit.

Mining Zimbabwe for health data that doesn't even benefit Zimbabweans is textbook neocolonialism.

Sooner or later the cat will make herself useful and find him, probably.

The gecko in our house got out of his cage and, while there is urgency to find him, we are all gonna take care of some emails first.

No public official should be allowed to speak like this in public unless they are immediately hit in the face with a fish.

Anyone currently involved in federal immigration enforcement, every officer, every bureaucrat, every lawyer, every judge, is a member of the most evil group of people this country has seen since Reconstruction. Darkness personified, every one. Doing this to children is beyond depraved.
