It’s not disingenuous to point out that the NYT did not run a single front page story of the Minab bombing. You don’t dispute this claim because it’s true. And the story that you reference on your webpage does not attribute blame to US/Israel and frames it as an allegation by “Iranian state media”
this has nothing to do with being bougie. if you wake up every time you turn your head at night for a month straight, $200 on a pillow will feel like nothing.
i already dropped $200 on one from Parachute so my next one actually has to be more
please do not offer recommendations, this is my journey
a big part of being 40 is having terrible neck pain and then spending increasingly large amounts of money in search of the perfect pillow
"so what are we doing today? normal haircut?"
"no."

I wrote about how Democratic leadership has abandoned the moral high ground on Iran, and how it has left them toothless when opposing Trump.
not a big deal for the rams to overpay a bit here, they're going all in on the next couple of years
rumor has it he's asking for ~$30M, which for a slot corner just feels like an overpay to me generally.
great trade for both teams. mcduffie is a great slot corner but he's about to be overpaid, which the chiefs can't afford to do and the rams can.

Jeff Fecke quoting my newsletter piece saying “Heavily implied in this article is that Peter is a goat fucker.”
for posterity
you didn’t know about the ethnicity i mentioned in the piece you’re responding to and directly quoting from?
now generally speaking if i write about being Iranian and then someone cracks a joke about me being a “goat fucker” in response i’d say that person is just an old fashioned racist
I will add one last thought. Many of the responses from Democratic lawmakers and liberal commentators (even the good ones) contain some ambivalence - some hope that perhaps the fall of the Iranian regime, even at the hands of Donald Trump, will be for the best. I understand why. I am the son of an Iranian immigrant. Ultimately I want freedom, democracy, and dignity for the Iranian people. The problem is that I've seen the American government promise all of those things a hundred times, and I've never seen them deliver it once.

Schumer and Jeffries are crying for more procedure, but the lack of the procedure is the point. Fascists cast it aside for its weakness. Prominent Democrats have been castigating the Islamic Republic as a dangerous threat for decades; Trump is simply manifesting their rhetoric into reality. He is offering a purer form of their own politics.

imagine how incoherent her unfiltered thoughts were
really speaks to the sad state of journalism that a reporter wouldn’t just ask this slobbering moron what one thing has to do with the other.
yeah call me an idealist but my perfect statement would in fact mention the suffering of Iranians you dumb piece of shit
this isn't the worst of the Democrats' statements, but statements like this are a stark reminder that to many people, the real issue with the Iraq War was that Americans died. everything else is a footnote.
love this one but i wish they’d move the date window to 6 o’clock, it’s screaming for symmetry
if you ever catch me in this watch you’ll know that i’ve done an Ocean’s 11
yeah but i struggle to watch it because his collection makes me want to die
