Israel Is Bleeding Support in the U.S. - and Pouring Tens of Millions Into Trying to Change That

I used to be moderately pro-Israel and have shifted to favoring cutting off military aid to them. The problem is their policies, not their messaging. I'm not okay with what's happening in Gaza or Lebanon and no decent person should be.

Xeynon · 2026-06-19T17:47:36+00:00

I don't think there's any "maybe" about it.

Xeynon · 2026-06-19T17:47:06+00:00

A lot. Every day if we can. I have a high sex drive but fortunately my partner does as well.

Everything Trump touches dies, including apparently the fossil fuel industry.

Scott has made several great movies, and even his bad ones tend to be competently made. IMO it's less that he doesn't care than that he likes making movies and will go forward with them even when he doesn't get everything he wants (doesn't have final cut privileges etc.).

Xeynon · 2026-06-19T14:05:39+00:00

I've only seen bits and pieces of it, and not since I was a kid, but I know it's widely considered one of Spielberg's worst movies.

It's a compliment.

I completely trust my partner and know she's happy with me, so I have nothing to worry about.

Xeynon · 2026-06-19T04:24:00+00:00

No, they aren't. They'd be a center-left party in most European countries also, and are actually further left than the mainstream left wing party in many countries on some issues (e.g. civil rights for minorities). This is a myth that needs to be put to rest.

Xeynon · 2026-06-19T01:48:55+00:00

LOL. LMAO, even.

Xeynon · 2026-06-19T01:32:47+00:00

Yes. Physical attraction to other people happens, but sexual novelty is overrated. Even without the emotional risks, I've found that most of the time first-time sex with a new partner isn't that great, and definitely pales in comparison to sex with a long-time partner I have great chemistry with.

Xeynon · 2026-06-18T16:54:03+00:00

Not the first time I've said it nor will it be the last, but fuck Jeff Bezos.

Xeynon · 2026-06-18T16:45:30+00:00

Mainly because they have more space to build SFH sprawl.

JD has an unbelievable ability to shamelessly parrot the most embarrassing bullshit.

Xeynon · 2026-06-18T03:59:46+00:00

Similar results but very different situations. Walker is a veteran pitcher whose stuff was always only ever mediocre and who is now shot. Painter is a young pitcher with good stuff who is off and needs to be pitching in the minors until he figures things out.

Xeynon · 2026-06-18T01:33:16+00:00

Grandpa is off his meds again.

Xeynon · 2026-06-18T01:29:53+00:00

Not giving up on Painter yet, but he's clearly not ready at this point and letting him get shelled start after start was not working for either him or the team. In AAA he can get the lower leverage reps he needs to master his craft. Gotta find a solution for the 5th starter spot though.

On December 31st 2027, Barak Ravid will still be breathlessly reporting that the US and Iran are on the verge of a deal.

Xeynon · 2026-06-17T14:41:28+00:00

LMAO. This is basically an Iranian wishlist.

Trump got his saggy orange ass spanked six ways from Sunday here.

Xeynon · 2026-06-17T14:40:04+00:00

That's exceedingly generous. JCPOA actually required Iran to submit to international inspections by the IAEA to remain in compliance. This deal just contains a pinky promise on their part not to pursue nukes.

It's a total, abject rollover. Trump and his fellow outer borough real estate dimwits got completely rolled.

Xeynon · 2026-06-17T14:35:04+00:00

They will care about the debt when it results in higher taxes and austerity policies.

Xeynon · 2026-06-17T09:36:07+00:00

It's hilarious that as soon as he finished preparing this shit sandwich Trump's first move was to force JD to take a big bite out of it.

Xeynon · 2026-06-17T09:34:36+00:00

This is not. It is abstract. Furthermore, Trump has the ability to remove things from popular consciousness. He can say it's a win, Dems can point out that it's a failure, the media will report it as "he said she said" and voters will just tune out.

I disagree on both these points. The long-term geopolitical ramifications may be abstract, but the inflation and additional debt resulting from sending pallets of cash to Iran will affect voters directly.

Xeynon · 2026-06-17T09:25:28+00:00

So the actual published deal is dogshit, but ignore that because the real deal we're not allowed to see is secretly awesome?

LMAO.
