New Yorkers experience the abundant contributions of our Eastern European neighbors every day. As we pair syrniki with sour cream in Brighton Beach, look in wonder at a Chagall painting at MoMA and banter with babushkas in Rego Park.

This how you know it's bad and his campaign is sweating. If they felt comfortable about their position 1 week out, they would have let that fat, sweaty toad's ad just do its thing.

An enormous fire all but destroyed an infamous Nazi-era guesthouse known as the Eagle’s Nest in southern Germany, according to the police, who said on Saturday that a man had been arrested in connection with the blaze.

Fuck El-Sayed. I wouldn’t vote for him if my vote broke a deadass tie between him and Rogers. I’d blow my nose with the ballot and hand it in.

Look at this absolute bullshit. A group of Jewish Nassau County teachers and educators were bound for Italy. HOWEVER.

Me to my 13 year old: “Kiddo I’m sorry but the cookies you made are pretty hard.” Wife (immediately and innocently chiming in): “I like the hard ones.” Kid: “Mommmm what the hell!?!” 😂

Israel is a bridge too far for Western Europe and Canada. Trump is a villain, but they all run into the arms of a dictator.

So the polling outfit nobody had ever heard of and was showing polling advantages for polarizing candidates that fell outside the standard deviation of well-known polling organizations turned out to be a complete fraud? How about that?

Too funny how big account ostensibly sports-first accounts on this app cannot handle even a shred of pushback when their shitty language gets called out.

“Globalize the Intifada!” they chanted. “Recognize Palestine!” they screamed. Ask for and France is receiving.

Yea. He really cares about affordability. Because he wants to kneecap Israel and support a national security posture harmful to American security during a very dangerous time. Let’s keep it real.

Honestly hilarious seeing how mad people are about Tesla's car stunt. Like, it's a freaking stunt. That's it. A stunt. Are you going to buy the car? No. Are you going to be forced to drive it? No. Does it materially impact your life for even 20 seconds? No.

Maybe people wouldn't be so angry and depressed all the time if you, ya know, tried not getting angry and depressed about things that really don't matter.

Is this absurd? Sure Is this necessary? Not really Is this scalable for mass production? Assuming not Are the people pissing their pants about Elon because Tesla put on a show for a crowd of people in need of a life? Yes. If Stellantis did this in Auburn Hills, nobody would care.
