@she_edith @brittrobson If you don’t believe that to be true, present evidence or make a moral argument. Just saying a journalist can’t comment because he happens to have expertise in another areas is a nonstarter. It IS possible to be both anti-Hamas and argue that Israel should behave differently.

Mute the TV, turn up the stereo, and enjoy

@TheVelvetVoyce “Ah. Yes,” he thinks, proudly sporting an ugly smug. “The sax in the left channel is way over-modulated.”

What a clown.

I know there’s nothing anyone could say here; nothing—no amount of logic, passion, love, etc.—that would supersede his narcissism. But. C’mon. A Love Supreme?

Why is “student loan forgiveness” in quotes? That’s what it is.
And I support it. Doesn’t benefit me. Kid is in 3rd grade. My loan is repaid. Maybe you’re just a “jackbag.” Sorry, I mean jackbag.

@useful_noise Does it makes a difference if your parents were murdered in front of you by a man in a clown costume?

An essential piece from reporter Martin Kuz @csmonitor about his experiences as a journalist on the ground in Afghanistan. Read this piece before you buy into the easy narratives being peddled by politicians and loud-mouth commentators on all sides. https://t.co/YgVqRZJohT
