Haven't been to Luigi's, although funnily enough I did have Joe's last night. My favorite is Di Fara, but I also love Emily's and Rubirosa.

I'm drunk too, and we are both in NYC, but it's like 2:30am so I'll just ask this and pass out in bed: what is your favorite pizza place in NYC?

Once again, fuck Nassim Taleb. Man has become a complete tool.

While not applicable to all self-described right-wingers, it's extremely concerning to see the common reaction from right-wing pundits and media organ...

Paul Krugman's opinions in the NYT can be hit or miss, but I thought this piece really nailed it.
June 22, 2018 at 17:11
I haven't read it, but as a rule of thumb, always go with what Streetlight recommends to read.

Every time some right-winger here makes a comment and it's pointed out how they are wrong, they either outright ignore it, or shift goalposts. They ca...

I really don't think it can be understated that a NYT and Amazon best selling author, who is arguably the most prominent conservative intellectual at ...

Monorail? I hear those things are awfully loud!

You've made several claims which are false. Stop trying to shift goalposts and own up to your mistakes. Aren't conservatives all about "personal respo...

None these politicians enacted a policy to separate families at the border. Looks like you're just another 'Google Search Conservative'. And would you...
June 20, 2018 at 23:32
Not necessarily, unfortunately. The EO here, states that: "Where appropriate and consistent with the law and available resources" is fairly in-determi...

Hmmmm interesting
June 20, 2018 at 22:58
And there absolutely were complaints about them.

He didn't. Those facilities were for unaccompanied minors, i.e. children who crossed the border unauthorized without parents. The article you provided...

I will eat nearly anything, but one of the few things I don't enjoy are oysters.

Yeah I get the apophasis joke I made.

As the mods just stated, the conversation on him is over. I won't comment on it further, but if I had to I guess I'd argue that doubling down on anti-...

David Brooks once again demonstrates how little awareness he has for the history of conservatism, which has gleefully wielded State power to shape soc...

No, I quite clearly characterized his intelligence and integrity, and unlike you, found it wanting. No need to romanticize it.

I'm not an expert on immigration policy, or an immigration lawyer, nor am I in any type of position to activate new immigration policies, so it's rath...
June 20, 2018 at 13:23
I'm actually embarrassed now because as I stated just earlier today, there's no point in paying attention to you. Your response only further validates...
June 20, 2018 at 04:28
Yes, as I established, I don't give too much credence to certain characterizations either. I read a lot, write a bit, drink more.

I'm going to coin the term "Google Search Conservative", that is, a conservative who establishes or defends his or her position through a quick google...

It's stunning how little thought, how little research you've done on this subject. I've seen this trite video being passed around by several Facebook ...

No, he deserves to be banned because he's an anti-Semite and told a poster to "suck his dick" while being on probation. I'm saying he doesn't deserve ...

First, that article discusses undocumented immigrants, not documented ones. Second, the Heritage Foundation's research on undocumented immigration has...

There is a lot of blame to go around, it's not reducible to one thing nor even a handful of things, and the blame isn't proportional. ??? In 2016, The...

In merely six weeks, nearly 2,000 children have been separated from their parents. The situation is already inhumane and unsustainable. If this practi...

I think you are delusional if you think the proportion of "bad intended" immigrants is anywhere near commensurate with asylum seekers. The fact is imm...
June 18, 2018 at 15:19
Exactly, and we are doing essentially the same thing today by turning away asylum seekers - men, women and children who are trying to escape abuse, ca...
