Just a Jackknife

It’s especially weird that this is a gospel. In context, the real Matthew 18:19 verse is Jesus speaking to a child. Like what would the context be around this? It doesn’t even seem like a line that would be part of a Biblical story.

Olivia Nuzzi got sent in to do a profile but it turned out she wanted to fuck the subject so we sent in Jacob Bernstein to profile her and it turns out he also wants to fuck the subject

It’s so much more embarrassing that the people doing this are comfortably well off and could totally do it if they actually wanted to

This guy is right but also they should stop making James Bond movies and I don’t care what their rationale is for doing so

It keeps getting stranger. Why do they have a backdrop if they're just gonna have the cameraman walk on and show that it's her kitchen? It's a weird combination of lazy and trying too hard and

Not everything needs an article

This mask always makes me laugh. i don't like to look at the other one..

Only reasonable response is to stay off social media as much as possible. This shit cannot be useful to you. It’s not real. Anything real on these sites is just volunteering itself to these parasites

I had at least 1 black friend when I was five years old and this led to me having a near-religious reverence for MLK, and I thought this was kind of normal. Having a nazi phase seems to me to be partly contingent on having racist parents

As Emissary points out later, Coates actually used to cite Israel as a positive example before visiting, so Jacob’s is drawing here on stereotypes of black people as antisemitic, and hoping no one checks her on it.

The overvaluation of Weiss is dependent on her presumed ability to appeal to an even broader audience given more resources. In spite of the exponential growth of her newsletter, the truth is that her actual supporter base is pretty small and most of them are not only paying $10

The “please tell me which parts you think are broken or substandard” bit is very Elon Musk. Just rolling up to a big old organization and immediately trying to identify the parts that can be gutted and amputated.

I hear Jordan Peterson is sick again, and has again been taken into occultation by his carnivorous daughter. It’s not that I wish him ill but his problems all seem to stem from his sincere belief in his own grift

They’re really Doing The Thing as hard as they can here

If you like yelling about misuse of the passive voice, THIS IS IT.

I bought a T Shirt from an Instagram ad and the algorithm has gone insane. 100% T shirt ads. I feel like I finally said to an Aunt “I guess I like music” and now she’s like “FINALLY. I KNOW WHAT TO GET YOU FOR CHRISTMAS.”

Embarrassing

FOURTEENTH MSF WORKER IN 2 YEARS

I don’t get these feelings because I’m not nostalgic about my zoomer childhood. I miss “youth” or whatever, but stuff was ugly when I was a kid. Little kids did spike their hair and there was Walmart, and it all looked like shit, and I kinda knew that even when I didn’t know anything else!

Oh my god, it’s AI, including the parts with Trump. Like they seem to have dubbed a fake Trump voice over pre-existing clips of him speaking

A lot of liberals like this are still under the impression that we can wait this out and go back to normal in 3 more years. Trump’s reelection already proves that American fascism was not just a fluke.

Is that good?

sheesh

Exactly! The reason why the right wants to ban things like drag queen story hour is because they do not want their enemies to have any kind of public forum. To a gladhander like Klein the idea that he even has political enemies is anathema

There is a contradiction between “I want to take the stakes of politics seriously” and “I don’t want politics to be violent.” When violence gets imposed on immigrants this guy is all full of nuance, but once it’s against someone else in the pundit class it’s time to draw lines in the sand

I hate how dangerous the places I've never been feel!

Really thought this was gonna say “if being on a boat full of drugs is a crime punishable by extrajudicial missile strike, then take me the fuck out.”

these people need to log off. seriously. bluesky this, bluesky that, how about you look at some actual blue skies and get off the internet for ten minutes

I will never vote for Glenn Greenwald.

This disgusting argument rests pretty heavily on the phrase “indiscriminate war.” It’s not indiscriminate! The goal is removal of the Gazan people. It couldn’t be more obvious but this guy thinks he can play dumb to sound smart.
