And just like that every American good costs significantly more.

If your family income is less than about $200,000, congratulations, your tax rate has at least doubled.

Ah, the important stuff: "What did it take for him to talk for so long?" and not "He talked for so long about how Trump is fucking over America, here's what he said."

Things I've fit in my Kia Soul:

  • Queen sized bed
  • Multiple bookshelves
  • 9 20lbs tanks and 3 30lbs tanks (empty)
  • 2 desks

Things I've fit in my Nissan Versa Note:

  • All the lumber for my loft bed and full length desk
  • 2 desks

And with a trailer:

  • Everything in my 1-bed apartment

The load he's hauling would fit in my trunk without having to fold down the seats.

All quotes in this comment are paraphrases styled as quotes for convenience. Read the Op-ed, it's like 5 minutes long.


"You're not allowed to get upset that Israel has killed scores of thousands in an attempt to wipe the Palestinian people off the map because some Palestinians are violent toward other Palestinians!" gives real "why are you upset that police kill black people when black on black crime exists?" energy.

Palestinian journalists can't write freely

Israel killed 70% of journalists murdered worldwide in 2024.

Won't someone think of the gay Palestinians

Pretty sure there are some pressing issues at the hands of Israel's slaughter that inhibit finding love of any type.

The existence of muscles on Hamas fighters proves they are stealing food

...

Therefore the best path forward is the total elimination of Hamas, and Israel is the only one capable and willing to do that, civilian casualties be dammed. As a reward for their noble efforts at exterminating ~~all palestinians~~ Hamas they should be given total control of Palestine's border with Egypt, granting Israel now total control of Palestine and ensuring the safe, prosperous, autonomous, and free future of Palestine.

There are no words to describe how utterly moronic this author is.

You're trying to figure out if the band filling stadia is the "worst band ever?"

These the same guy's that let the Nazis have a rally?

But a shirt that says "Ban Dolan" is "offensive in nature" and makes "threats against an MSG executive?"

DEI during hiring is things like:

  • Making sure job postings are put up in spaces where minority populations have a similar chance to see them as majority populations. I.e. post at HBCU and Women's colleges' job boards, not just at the hiring manager's alma mater.
  • Making sure the application portal is accessible to those with disabilities

DEI during employment is things like:

  • continuing unconscious bias training
  • educating about the existence of diverse backgrounds and how that can benefit your team
  • encouraging communication among your team members about how they approach problems, overcome obstacles, and achieve results

DEI is not (though the right commonly likes to use it this way):

  • A slur for non-white male presenting people
  • A diversity hire
  • A socially acceptable term in lieu of the n-word
