Jamelle Bouie is such a good writer; he deserves better headlines. David Brooks should’ve been laughed out of publishing for the rest of his life after that stupid, lying airport restaurant inflation post that was debunked a few months back

Absolutely about Bouie. I know that the editors create the headlines, and they are finely attuned to maximize the clicks. Just fucking deplorable.

And Brooks? The "gentleman" conservative? He is the fucking worst. Even worse that Ross "bad take king" Douthat.

The medical massage clinic I used to work at had those feckin' salt lamps in each room, and we were told to not turn them off. I expected such woo in the spa I worked at, but not a place that ostensibly was more based in science.

And fuck the NYT. They've been high on their own supply for decades now (at the least).

I knew there was a reason I followed you! I am so tired of the mealy mouth hand wringing types who hype shit up for clicks and likes and refuse to fight. This is the real deal--no time for games and we need fighters! The Barbarians at the gates care two wits about honor and rules, as we see it with the shift in liberalism in mainstream media. Conservatives have bought up newspapers like WaPo, Newsweek and NYT and NOT with good purpose. The people on the ground, the infantry, they are the ones who are gonna have to become truth tellers; they are gonna have to be ready to scrap! Thank you, brother, thank you!

I only use Gluten Free, non-GMO pink Himalayan salt

The GMO thing is rant-worthy, too. IMO anyway. Pretty sure there’s a large number of people who want to try to feed the world with locally produced products from heirloom seeds.

Oh yeah. My wife uses this boutique deodorant that claims to be "GMO Free"

Seriously, what is GMO free underarm deodorant??

That's a good one!

Anyone else seen "gluten-free" on items that should never need to be identified as such, like *water*? SMDH

More rants please! These are very good.
