Smarter people than me will write about how we got here, but one thing that’s striking about the university protests is the absence of an actual peace movement. There are pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups, but what you don’t see is a broad movement for a full ceasefire, more…
Wow, referring to some Jewish students as "pro-genocide" sure is a great way to combat antisemitism

@KristiNoem when i say i got that dog in me, i mean Kristi Noem wants to kill me
Unironically proud to be a freshly minted American! Not everyone gets to choose their country, but I did and I chose the USA 🇺🇸 ❤️🇺🇸
A "no comment" sign, really. Kinda like "Welcome to the gender equality zone! Women must have a male escort & wear a skirt."
BREAKING: PEN America has canceled its World Voices festival. The organization has been brought to its knees by the demand that it say the word "genocide." But who does this really hurt in the end? theatlantic.com/books/archive/…
.@PENamerica is standing by its values by supporting free speech and voices from across the spectrum, but lefties are condeming it for not denouncing genocide in Gaza, for not taking sides. Read @galbeckerman's article and the many hostile quote tweets to see what I mean. Sad.

Gefilte fish is delicious. Fight me.
I do this all the time. Kinda awkward at the grocery store, tbh.
@KristiNoem That’s quite a word salad just to say you’re a terrible human being
Here, the captioning says "Homeland," not "Poland." (Again, listen with your eyes closed. I think the "homeland" will sound out more clearly. It did for me.) She's still wacky, of course.

On April 11 in Dallas, I participated in a debate on immigration that was sponsored by @TheFIREorg and @TheFP. The proposition was "America should close its borders," and columnist @AnnCoulter and @compactmag_ cofounder @SohrabAhmari defended it. The Young Turks' @cenkuygur and…

@KristiNoem You are so full of 💩it’s not even funny. You just couldn’t be bothered to train that puppy . And if he truly couldn’t be a bird dog, I am quite sure he would have been a great pet for a family that didn’t need to shoot birds to give him something to do. #psychopath
@HistoryBoomer Can I be Director of Directing (Emeritus)?
@HistoryBoomer I do it, and I don't even work at a school! I do carry around a pair of glasses and a pipe, though, just to sell it.
Yup. Always thought "Drumpf" was super-cringe. Back in the early 2000s when group email lists were still a thing, a Republican guy on a list I was on referred to Al Gore exclusively as "Algore." I didn't even get that -- like, how is it derogatory? ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ Weird & annoying
I don't trust people who use trendy nicknames for the people they criticize (i.e. Elmo for Elon), even when I dislike the person being criticized. It makes me think this is middle-school bullying behaviour, not mature criticism.
@HistoryBoomer Awesome to see this in use! Thanks for sharing
So now the extremes on both sides are fighting in the replies and I want to go back to bed. I stick with what I wrote.
Smarter people than me will write about how we got here, but one thing that’s striking about the university protests is the absence of an actual peace movement. There are pro-Israel and pro-Palestine groups, but what you don’t see is a broad movement for a full ceasefire, more…
Wow, referring to some Jewish students as "pro-genocide" sure is a great way to combat antisemitism
I had to listen twice to make sure I heard this right because it’s utterly repulsive. @IlhanMN casually calls Jewish students “pro-genocide or anti-genocide.” That’s another way of saying “the unacceptable Jews or the acceptable Jews”
@KristiNoem when i say i got that dog in me, i mean Kristi Noem wants to kill me
“For Cricket”
This is Kristi Noem’s puppy Cricket that she killed. Imagine throwing this beautiful boy into a gravel pit and shooting it. Don’t defend this. She shouldn’t be welcome in the GOP going forward.

Do you ever wish we could go back to the divorce rates from when our parents were born? Good news! We already are. The divorce rate is currently at a 50 year low. Most marriages are happy, and most marriages work out.

“The fundamental misperception at the center of this conflict is that PEN America sees itself as a free-speech organization, while the protesters see it as a channel to express their political views.”
