Isaac Hirsch

@grapesmoker Finally: someone who will run California like a start up. Hoping he’ll set up a totally nonfunctional government that doesn’t do what he says it does but will “leverage AI” in unclear ways and we get acquired by China

"started a software company" is an auto red flag but also the actual company he was ceo of was this engagement-slop that no one used and which was forgettably gobbled up by pinterest and never heard from again: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brigade_M…

@CONELRAD6401240 That’s probably Volume 1, which they do not have

@IBHirsch Does it mention the accidental murder he committed as a lad?

You spend too much time in the books section at Goodwill and you start to talk yourself into “The Papers of Adlai E Stevenson, Volume 5”

@stopvaccinating @JeninYounesEsq @talchinsky I love that this is from an anti-vaccine guy. “The state cannot mandate anything to be put in my body, unless it’s bullets, then that’s okay”

@JeninYounesEsq @talchinsky I’ve watched dozens of police shooting videos - police shoot in these instances. You should watch some before pontificating.

I'm a former defense attorney and currently a civil liberties attorney with no political dog in this fight. I watched the video at least 10 times from different angles and at different speeds and waited to offer an opinion, which I still reserve the right to change if additional information changes the calculus. It is very clear that the officers instigated the confrontation. The woman initially tried to wave them past her. ICE officers have no authority to search a US citizen or arrest her (unless there's probable cause to believe she's harboring undocumented individuals, not a contention here). A woman surrounded by masked, armed men who have no law enforcement authority over her has every right to try to escape. Video shows her steering wheel is turned to the right, clearly an attempt to leave WITHOUT hitting anyone and steer clear of the officer standing towards the front of her car. That officer had time to step to the side, which is where he was when he shot her. Even a real police officer would not have the right to shoot at her for trying to flee. This is well-established in the case law; deadly force may not be used simply to prevent someone from getting away. Given that the ICE officers had no law enforcement authority to begin with, AND the video footage shows she was trying to escape a perceived threat, not to kill anyone, the crime is all the more inexcusable. I'm praying for the victim's family, especially her children. I'm also praying for all the conservatives who are so unprincipled and lost they're excusing this terrible crime, and gloating over a death that will leave three young children motherless, because of the victim's politics.

I made a YouTube video about how to get better at Jeopardy. Please watch and, if possible, enjoy youtu.be/fSyBOhp9sBo

I love how cold tap water is this time of year

Had Taco Bell’s new Steak & Poblano Rolled Quesadilla on Saturday and then dreamt about it last night. Because it showed up in my subconscious I’m forced to give it my highest recommendation

@daltonleepruitt Stocks have never continued to go up during a bubble

It may not be a bubble

@KarenBucco Not yet! We’re still looking at rings but unfortunately we’re both procrastinators by nature

@IBHirsch Hello Isaac!! I had the privilege tonight of seeing a reun of you on The Chase from 2023. You did a great job and I was so happy when your team won. I haven't written to you in a while; I hope you're doing well. Are you engaged now? If so, congrats to both of you!!

@StuartScottsEye honestly my favorite part of the whole thing was a random guy doing mentalism/table magic next to the bar

@SAM_brero This take was designed in a lab to make absolutely nobody happy

very strong argument for being the dumbest person alive

@scottgairdner When I worked at Starbucks many years ago, I asked a guy for his name and he very smugly said, “My name? Merry Christmas.” He seemed genuinely disappointed when I wrote “Merry Christmas” on the cup

Yesterday in an OC Starbucks, I saw a middle-aged dad angrily order as Charlie Kirk. Really itching for a fight. The drink came out blank, which stumped him. So he went “I won’t be silent anymore!”, then sat silently with his bored wife & 12-year-old. TAKE THAT LIBS

It’s hard to take too much schadenfreude in this when you realize that when this stuff inevitably fails it’ll completely crash the economy

Do you want your entire apartment to smell like Greek yogurt? Then try Greek yogurt (tm)

Sure, you’ve butt-dialed people before, but have you ever butt-joined a Fantasy Football league

@Feldfrog I love the implication that Dillon, ostensibly a truth-telling political comedian, would quietly take a large sum of money to say or do anything. Why would you listen to what he has to say about politics ever again?

"Get over it. So what they have slaves?" wow . what a psychopath

@SAM_brero “we want people who are dedicated to our mission of making the world a better place. 18 hours day are EXPECTED” - the founder of an app that is “laundry but AI somehow”

You work at “Tinder for jobs”

“this video of an incredible thing happening in nature would be great to post on Reddit, but it’s missing one thing— the shittiest song ever, being played far too loudly”

@DrSwagger6523 @JoestarJokic Coulibaly probably does have more from the youth factor but if he doesn’t take a leap this year offensively I don’t think he’s going to have as much value as Wizards fans think

@IBHirsch @JoestarJokic Coulibaly?

both champagnie brothers are good
