To understand what Hasan Piker believes, you need to ignore what a NY Times write up of him says and listen to many hours of his show. To understand what Tucker Carlson believes, you need to ignore many hours of his show and listen to what a NY Times write up of him says. Do I have that right?

One of the things I most resent about this is that I know it to be a deliberate strategy by Netanyahu, he does not want Jewish people to feel safe living outside Israel. And it’s working, global antisemitism is rising. The antisemites are making his point for him.

The door of a quaint cabin in rural Tuscany swings open as two men in suits walk in to find a man making espresso. “I told you I’m retired.” He says, his tone quiet and defeated. “You’re the only one reckless enough for this.” One of the suits speaks, sliding a file across the table.

US leaders believe the key to winning wars is white men doing war crimes. They openly believed this when a plurality of Americans voted for them, and the belief persisted through Russia failing to defeat Ukraine. Now with the Iran war and domestic purges, they're putting their theory to the test.

This probably isn't going to change people's minds, but sometimes it is easier to evoke sympathy for dogs than it is to evoke sympathy for trans folks. Giving money to J.K.Rowling is the same as giving money to eradicate transgender people.
Panel 1: A park. A donut truck. A red-haired white woman sitting inside the donut truck, looking relaxed. The truck is Rolling Donuts, and there are three donuts painted under the worker window, a menu with prices, text near the bottom of the truck that reads "Tastes like magic!", a big Rolling Donuts logo with donuts for "O"s (clever!) and a message that says No Trans Fats! Only there's a tiny, near-illegible "or" between "trans" and "fats", because we all know how J.K. Rowling do.

Another white lady, this one blonde in t-shirt and jeans, walks up with a brown puppy on a leash. "Oh," she says, "Rolling Donuts!"

Panel 2: The blonde lady walks up to the woman in the truck window, smiling. "We used to have these all the time when I was a kid! I loved them!

Panel 3: The woman in the truck smiles. "Wonderful," she replies. "And now, as a bonus, $2 from every donut goes towards killing dogs!"

Panel 4: The truck lady's hand motion towards a a sign, which reads "Dogs are just fake wolves! I hate them SO much! Thank you for your support in their eradication!"

Panel 5: The blonde woman holds a hand to her mouth, shocked. "Killing?" she says.

The truck lady smiles, happy. "Yup!"

Panel 6: The blonde lady turns to face her dog, stricken. 

Panel 7: The dog looks up, wagging his tail and panting.

Panel 8: The dog, realizing what is coming, lowers his tail and puts his tongue back in his mouth.

Panel 9: The lady in the truck is holding 6 dozen donuts, in neon pink and blue and the Rolling Donut logo, with text across their sides that reads "We hate dogs!"

The blonde woman is looking back at her dogs, guilt on her face. 

"...but they're just SO yummy!" she says!

Sad trombone goes here. 

That's my comic!

The aesthetic of making trucks look tough and muscular has made them so dangerous for pedestrians. The taller front-ends are more likely to hit internal organs (rather than legs) and an additional 1,500 pounds means a lot more damage inflicted on pedestrians.

Fan of the idea of game devs releasing a game and then being done with it. Esp true for indies; if you do not want to be shackled to a project indefinitely, you should be given the grace to say "This was fun, I'm gonna do something else" and then leaving your game to vibe on the store or whatever.
