Yeah this ain't it. He was off to a good start with the "I have to prove it" line, and then he proceeded to not prove anything except his ability to dodge the real issues that have led to the sales slump.

I don't believe much anymore, but a big part of Jesus's message was "if you're certain you're God's special good guy, you're definitely the bad guy." Fully bought in there!

Good luck with your little rapture though. I'm sure it'll be just great for war criminals.

I know something of millennialist christianity, it warps everything. A loved one recently said "there's nothing we can do about evil in the world, but the end will be here soon." WITH MY TEEN KID SITTING RIGHT THERE.

I got a little heated, "no, we fight for our kids' future, end times or not."

Listen, if your plan for bringing Jesus back is to go kill people and bomb schools, maybe you aren't the ones who should be hoping for His Return.

If you think you're gonna rush into His Loving Embrace in your bloody tactical gear with a gun in your hand, you have been reading a different bible.

Dishwalla, Better Than Ezra, Dog's Eye View. Soul Asylum. The Wallflowers! Deep Blue Something! Collective Soul!

Did every group of white guys have two good songs in them in the 90s? Or were they all just Gin Blossoms?

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2007, the US president was born in 1946.

In 2017, the US president was born in 1946.

And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.

Also he's probably lying about even this level of bungled planning

The kids don't know about the Amanda Bynes poster hastily airbrushed to avoid implying she endorsed peace

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to bomb this elementary school full of kids because he thinks it makes him look cool. also his scheming viziers will be betting money on it for fun. good luck soldier

At some point you wonder not just if insiders using information to place bets, but maybe also reshaping their advice to make those bets profitable.

I've been waiting for this... at some point hiding in a sea of billions of other users won't be a defense.

I volunteer to fire the private prison company execs. I'll do it in a townhall meeting over Zoom, I'll do it for free, and I'll bring my whole self to the role.

Yes! And we can get rid of it everywhere else too. Unless you're a doctor who needs to know about risk factors, or a conference organizer who doesn't want an all-dude panel, delete that gender checkbox and let's all be humans together.

Abolish the legal gender marker entirely. No government can be trusted to have a database of which people have changed theirs, no government has any business tracking what your gender is "supposed" to be in the first place.

Civil rights are a kitchen-table issue.

This is some fascist bullshit.

"We're making the world better by eliminating human learning"

"Incredible, here's 24 billion dollars"

Still seems crazy that Richard Hanania wrote for years under a white power banner and is just like, part of the media landscape.
