Whatever he makes, this guy is seriously overpaid.
Just ONE generation ago, our fathers could support an entire family on a single paycheck.
Afford homes, buy cars, raise kids, family vacations, and retire with pensions… all on ONE middle-class salary.
Today? Two incomes barely cover rent in most cities.

Forcing myself to say goddam out loud. I was walking home from school, probably 5th grade. It took several blocks to get the whole thing out.
For those of you that abandoned organized religion, what was the “spark” that started your deconstruction arc?

Everything she says here validates the original article... the left does NOT understand AI.
Rejecting AI will doom the left to irrelevance. PLEASE do not listen to people like Abeba if you hope to see a liberal future.

i shouldn’t give this piece any more attention than it has already garnered but i feel like it is worth pointing out some flaws in the argument/unquestioned assumptions

As a child protection professional, I can tell you the death penalty is NOT an awesome solution to child sexual abuse. Most children are abused by family members; they will not report if their family members will die as a result.

I am eating at a Salvadoran cafe in Pico/Union in Los Angeles. Saturday night and I’m the only one here. This is not normal. I asked my server how are things. She started talking about how slow things are in general. Her explanation was very simple. “La Migra.”

The irony is that a century ago, the exact same kind of religious bigotry that Cuomo’s embraced down the stretch — we can’t elect someone from that faith or they’ll impose it on all of us! — was aimed squarely at Catholics like Cuomo.
Boy Mamdani's race is really a vivid reminder that anti-Islamic bigotry is 100% accepted in US public discourse. People don't even bother dog whistling, it's just right out in the open.

Watching Dodgers and I just relieved myself in an all gender restroom. I don’t know if I will ever recover from the trauma. All gender bathroom phobes are thoroughly maladjusted people.

Sean Duffy: "The truth is, transit across America is dangerous. And these liberals -- liberal mayors -- they want everybody out of cars and into trains but they made the trains unsafe so nobody really wants to ride them ... even big men don't want to ride the subway at those times of night."

In college, Laura Ingraham went to a Gay Students meeting. The next day, she published the names of everyone in attendance in the school newspaper, at a time when being outed was dangerous.
So, yeah, appointing a menace to gay people is a GREAT selection to lead our nation's [checks notes] arts.
