Listening to Max Miller spout Mens Rights Activist propaganda reminds me of the time I discovered the most dystopian strip mall to ever strip mall -- the MRA strip mall in downtown San Diego, complete with the local MRA chapter's HQ, an MRA book shop, an MRA lawyers office and a DNA testing facility

The worst thing about Ron wyden is he really undermines my strongly held belief that anybody over 60 should be thrown out of office

Bombshell new report out from my investigators this morning spanning our four year investigation into Jeffrey Epstein’s financial records. This report shows exactly how Wall Street protected Epstein and enabled his sex trafficking for decades. Mega thread following with some key points:

If I could time travel I’d go back to the Bush era when I threw preppy kids like the Secretary of Testosterone down steps at the Rock n Roll Hotel for being creepy and warn myself to be more intentional about introducing their skulls to every step. Apparently hitting just a few didn’t do the trick

While I don’t want to read it personally, I need somebody to study how this man pop’s the pope hat if he thinks every poop he has is a “nearly orgasmic” experience cause of his diet. Q-tipping your ears and peeping for the first time in a while? That’s just science. But all your poops? That’s freaky

Oh my god the dietician who is telling everyone in the White House to only eat steak and sauerkraut doesn't wipe his ass.

To O’Mara, the diet is not just a temporary means of losing weight but a way to eat for good. He has been doing it for 10 years, and credits it with turning his life around. At one point in our conversation he pulled up the Bristol Stool Chart, which ranges from Type 1 (“separate, hard pellets”) to Type 7 (“watery, no solid pieces”). O’Mara is consistently delivering Type 4 (“smooth, soft, like a snake”), with pointed ends, indicative of healthy rectal function, he told me. “When you start eating healthy, you don’t need toilet paper,” he claimed. “Animals in the wild have no residual stool on their anus.” He described a proper bowel movement to me this way: odorless, wipe-free, over in three to seven seconds and “nearly orgasmic.” “I could have a bowel movement behind a sheet at a dinner party in the corner of the room,” he said, “and nobody would know.”

Just because she says she supports abortion rights does not mean she does, especially when she’s knowingly used her enormous power to take those rights away

The New York Times@nytimes.com · 4d ago

Senator Susan Collins of Maine, a Republican who supports abortion rights, endorsed Brett Kavanaugh’s nomination for the Supreme Court in 2018. That has emerged as a major issue in her first re-election campaign since Roe v. Wade was overturned. nyti.ms/4xatnT9

New Orleans, your new favorite taco spot is Diva’s on St Claude over by the cracked out MacDonalds. I’ve eaten 10 times my body weight in tacos in each of the Mexican states of Chihuahua, Tabasco, Sonora, Oaxaca, Baja and CDMX and these are the best I’ve had in New Orleans hands down

Ross Douthat looks exactly like what you'd get if you asked a 13 year old girl to draw the first thing she thought of when you said the words "Ross Douthat"

Shoulda guessed that the genius who wrote the taxing mommy's pied-a-terre story would be Alex Berenson, the malfunctioning dildo that wrote all those COVID conspiracy theory pieces.
