@jemelehill They fucking all those female head coaches and getting off Scot free?

I’ll say this: While the photos raised questions, if male insiders were held to a similar standard of ethics, none of them would exist.

@mohit_mor4108 @xoaanya But what drives an economy at all if there is no income and no spending

@xoaanya Elon Musk had said in some interview, working will be optional. There will be no shortage of goods and services.

Everyone says AI will replace most jobs. But if there are no jobs, there’s no income. No income means no spending. So how does the economy even function? What am I missing?

@HamptonAc_ There’s some really insane expenses on there. 900 on haircuts? That’s my annual barber budget x3

My boy just bagged a corporate job and called me hyped. "Ac, I'm set for life" $140K/year. Benefits. 401k match. Corner office. I congratulated him but I had to show him the math. $140K salary = $8,750/month after tax $2,800 rent $650 car payment (Audi A4) $280 insurance $180 gas $1,200 DoorDash $400 eating out $200 gym $120 subscriptions $1,500 bottle service $900 barber (2x a week) $500 going out $200 random expenses He's left with $820. Daycare? $2,000/month. Now he's -$1,180 every month. $140K/year is survival, bro. how about you setup a store

@ArtCandee For once I agree with booker. However, congress abdicated their responsibilities to the president decades ago. Take it back if you want it.

Senator Cory Booker is getting heated: "If we allow this as a Congress, this is the new standard. Donald Trump can wage war on Cuba next, for 30-60 days, before having to consult Congress. Donald Trump could invade Greenland. These are not hypotheticals. He has said he's going to take Cuba. He said he's going to take Greenland...We are in this situation, not just because of Donald Trump, but because of his congressional enablers."

@hashjenni And Iran would have nuclear capabilities with IRBMs working on ICBMs. Good point. Yes I’ll suffer temporary higher gas prices to insulate a safer future for my children.

All 168 Iranian schoolgirls would be alive, the Strait of Hormuz would be open, and gas would be $2.85 a gallon if Trump had gone to prison for his crimes.

@Mark_E_Noonan What is this in response to? I must have missed something.

Do keep in mind, guys, that if the Pope - or any senior Church leader - were to forcefully condemn Islam or even a Muslim action it would mean scores of Christians being murdered in retaliation. This does play a role in how things are presented.

@esjesjesj @TheCurtismMKII Love of the game and fear of the gulag.

@TheCurtismMKII You have it backwards. Communism works BECAUSE people work for the love of the game. Just this is not that situation at all

The concept of a door dash grandma should instantly turn any reasonable person into a socialist

@Bellorris Eh, I don’t think that’s true. I’d never give my kids a knife and say “go kill a Jew”. I’d never let my kids associate with terrorists or join a theocratic army that rapes women do they don’t go to heaven before executing them. Some have equal love. Many don’t.

Mothers in Gaza, Lebanon and Iran love their children as much as you love yours.

@EYakoby Duh

Joe Kent: “There is zero evidence that Iran was trying to build a nuclear weapon, Netanyahu is warmongering.” The Deputy Speaker of the Iranian Parliament: “We tried to develop nuclear weapons, but couldn't keep it secret.”

@NBiznich @ggreenwald @LatexEngineer Because one country is the number one state terror sponsor of the world that has vowed death to America and to Israel and the other is a country of 10 million people surrounded by a billion Muslims that would prefer the he dead.

So let me get this straight...under the Iran deal there were intrusive inspections and continuous monitoring mechanisms specifically designed so trust wasn’t required, yet Israel maintains an undeclared nuclear arsenal with facilities that aren’t subject to the same level of international inspection or transparency… So why is one country expected to prove compliance under a microscope, while the other operates under complete opacity without consequence?

Iran has been vehemently clear for decades that it would never renounce the same right every country on earth has under the NPT: to enrich uranium for nuclear energy, but not for nuclear weapons. No country would ever give up that right. Trump never demanded this ludicrous concession until Israel ordered him that this has to be the red line. I still think Trump doesn't understand the difference bewteen "no nuclear bomb" and "no nuclear program." But either way, any "negotiations" based on a demand that Iran give up the right to enrich uranium even to 3.67% is designed in advance to fail, and instead to re-start the war so that Israel's ultimate aim can be achieved: shattering Iranian society and turning it into Libya and Syria.

@ggreenwald @LatexEngineer But they didn’t have the right to go where they wanted and see what they wanted -when- they wanted. There was a 24 day loophole.

Under the Iran Deal that your leader withdrew from, nobody needed to trust Iran. They have ubiquitous surveillance of all their facilities and IAEA inspectors had the right to go where the wanted and see what they wanted. It's Israel that stole nuclear secrets and built a secret stockpile of nukes that nobody can inspect.

@annbauerwriter Yes, you’re wrong. Sexual deviance usually escalates. Having that person near children is a massive and unnecessary risk.

Am I wrong to think that a teacher's entirely private life - in which they do nothing illegal or violent - is off limits when it comes to assessing their job performance? This guy did nothing in front of or near kids. I don't see why his stage performance is relevant.

@Du_dggg We don’t really.

Amis patriotes américains 🇫🇷🇺🇸 Je me demandais... Vous pensez quoi de la France et de nous de maniere generale ? Soyez francs s'il vous plait 🙏🇫🇷🇺🇸🙏

@AndrewHilaryUS Are you an idiot? Yes, one side was fighting to keep slavery. The OTHER side was fighting to abolish it. The OTHER side won ergo a war fought to end slavery.

This is fucking insane. The civil war wasn’t to end slavery, it was to KEEP slavery.

@Angry_Staffer You’re not serious…

My thoughts on the Swalwell stuff. Notice how Democrats always hold their own accountable and Republicans just yell fake news, no matter how vile the evidence is?

@Seergiot3ck You ain’t doing shit

Los chicos y yo cuando el Papa León XIV nos llame a una cruzada para tomar la Casa Blanca y derrotar a Trump:

@IterIntellectus Uh no.

"sleep training" a newborn means letting a defenseless baby scream for its mother in the dark until it's either exhausted or has given up on life. the attachment literature is clear that before 6 months, a baby crying with nobody coming learns exactly one thing, that calling for help doesn't work and you even have parents bragging about how they tortured their kid into an 8h sleep you need to attend to every need of your child. they don't have a prefrontal cortex able to understand what's happening. if you love them and care for them, they'll barely cry, and when they do there's a clear reason you can address right away

@NajamAli2020 It gives us the veto power and stops appeasement of Iran.

I am genuinely struggling to understand this logic. If the rest of the world is willing to pay a small toll to Iran to keep oil flowing and stabilise markets, then why does the U.S. feel the need to block all shipping, especially when it is not dependent on that oil?

@thereandjack @alphaman_111 @charlesmurray They are supposed to focus. To get rid of the “my life is hard” shit.

I don’t think people understand how demotivating this kind of talk can be. If the bar is set embarrassingly low, what is the kid supposed to do about it? All you’re communicating is that the work isn’t significant, and the best they can hope for is your disdain. So why participate at all? Building a cabin for your family would probably be more satisfying.

On day 1 of my high school history class, our professor got up and said You are 15 or 16 years old. 200 years ago people your age were married, planted crops, had children, and built a cabin by winter. You can do your homework. The bar set for you historically is embarrassingly low. You are not dealing with regional famine or plague. You do not have to save your family from marauders or go into battle to destroy your enemies. You have to sit down and learn from someone who cares about you in a safe, air-conditioned room. You have no excuses.

@alphaman_111 That’s a good speech.
