  • Look, folks, a temporarily embarrassed billionaire. They're the only people that benefit economically from Trump's policies. Check your 2016 taxes paid divided by income and your 2023 taxes paid divided by income. The reason you paid more taxes in 2024 is Trump's tax reform. Did you get more for your tax dollars now? I don't feel like I did.

  • If I lived near him, I would post a list of Trump sign addresses and include his. He probably still would lack the cognitive ability to understand that his suggestion was wrong, but I bet he would want to do something about me.

  • Does this mean we can stop pretending the National Review is journalism? It never has been, but people like to present their stupidity as legitimate discourse. If I had to describe it briefly. I would call it "trying to make being a peasant exploited by your betters seem like a good moral choice using linguistic forms calculated to make the reader feel educated and superior. "

  • My senior year in high school, my English teacher started the year by having us turn in a list of all of the books we had read. My list was much longer than most of my classmates. He then assigned us books to read and report on based on some criteria (hypothesis: books that would make us miserable). I got assigned two existentialist plays, "Waiting for Godot" and "No Exit." I think those plays did permanent damage to my psyche.

    (Sidenote: a classmate who didn't read very much got assigned Virginia Wolff. She thought it very unfair that I only had to rea d couple of plays.)
