Body in the twin cities, mind in the 16th-early 20th century books. Thomas Paine was robbed…and so were we.

 if something is true on its own, then it is true on its own…..and doesnt need a false ornamental leg as a foundation. All of us can fall victim to this lazy habit and I think it’s important to try and guard against it. It sucks that you’re catching heat over it.

And it doesn’t sound like that is true. And doesnt need to be true for people to say, for example, that Vance shares views with Yarvin or for him to be in the same social circles with Yarvin. (Provided these two things are true!)

Oh, absolutely! That’s why the liquidator analogy - the moment I saw your (very fair question) i was like “fuck, here comes the 15,000 roentgen…. But I think it’s important! I opened this thread under the impression that Vance had explicitly said or wrote something like “i love curtis yarvin”

Just wanna say I appreciate you frequently wading into potentially radioactive situations to check on and try and clean up claims. Bluesky needs its liquidators. I would never be able to do it.

Thank you for the reminder - It’s so easy to forget! It just begs for that “s” at the end! 😂 I always prefered the name of the book in my native language, Portuguese. “Apocalipse” Shalom!

Super frustrating. As is “you have been referred to the black hole - your application is now headed toward the singularity. Minutes will become years as you approach. We do not know if you’ll ever see what’s on the other side.”

Man, Revelations would have really sucked if this guy wrote it. “And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a chick with huge bazongas holding a cold beer. It was based.”

Maybe, in hindsight, it was a poor move to allow the 4th estate to become nothing more stenographers for dildos who have a net worth with three or more commas.

Damn, Hanania just trading back row pieces for pawns. “I show I am a rape apologist” “I will defend against your attack by showing I am a pathetic thin-skinned baby” “I will defend against your attack about me being a baby by showing I like to make jokes about lynching.” Dig up, bro!

I also enjoy its brusqueness. Their honk INSISTS. If i’m out on a walk and, despite being in nature, I find myself thinking about the meaner things in life - a goose’s honk, pulls my mind back where it needs to be.

Man, the “we can’t eat road salt” was great punch placement. A true liver shot. Delivery is a little weak. But If he can start adding some trunk rotation and force to this…

No sarcasm - The “calm” meme is fantastic. I hope we do this right up until the midterms….and then when the results do come in*, we switch to “Euphoria” with the appropriate accompanying images. (TBD) *not forgetting calm, as I say this, of course.

Plus, the price of gas is front and center. You see it on the billboard. You see it on the pump. You see it tick up. You see the final cost. Almost every other cost is somewhat less visible. So until other consequences can really stick you personally - people ignore them. It sucks. So much.

Depending on your work/life, most of the time you are interacting with the outside world might very well be when you are driving your car. It’s the medium through which people experience outside life. Like a second skin. And yes, this is deeply depressing.

I think O’Harris clarifies it a bit later…deny them an out, which is a photo that allows them to believe “I am being included favorably in society.” Give it to them good and hard in print…and deny the photo. If you must have a photo, make it one that reflects the ugliness of their character.

100%. “Job is to reflect society” is just a complete abdication of the responsibility of the press, masquerading as a noble cause.
