The reason Milo and Nick Fuentes are hanging out with Ye is they - correctly - see him as the most important tool they've ever had at their disposal (plus the fact that Milo is an attention-seeking whore).
And the reason Ye's garbled message is effective isn't because of *what* he's saying but because he's traveling in the caravan of the "just asking questions" crowd, which holds so much appeal for authority-questioning young white men...
So easy to blend antisemitism with UFOs and ancient archaeology and vaccine denialism and all of the subjects "mainstream experts" don't want you to know about because it fits with a paranoid worldview that excludes regular chumps in favor of an elite global conspiracy.

Arrived at Mar-A-Lago late last night for Tiffany's wedding. Excited for the festivities but nervous that my giant placard that says "You should all be in jail" will draw unwanted attention. To be fair, it was a last-minute invite, and all my other placards are in the wash.
Some additional early drama at Tiffany’s wedding: apparently Tiffany isn’t on the guest list.
Kimberly Guilfoyle keeps trying to get the Saudi Royal Family to do the Lambada, which isn't going over well. Apparently, over there it really is the forbidden dance.

I think it's a great question. I'm not a biologist or a gender theorist or a logician but I can try... ? My answer will be the same, I imagine, if I were to try to answer the question, "What is a man".
I don't think the question you're asking is actually, "What is a woman," because I could simply say "A woman is a human being," since all women are human beings but not all human beings are women.
Instead, I think the question is probably meant to ask, "How is a woman different from a man?" which may seem obvious, until you start to dig down a little.

It needs to be said: everything at Dunkin Donuts only tastes about 80% as good as I want it to taste.
Not interested in @joshgondelman’s opinion on this.
McDonalds, on the other hand, often tastes 110% as good as I am expecting.

Mort Sahl, 94, died yesterday. Nightclub comic, social satirist, and, if his 1969 interview with Dick Cavett was any indication, a smug and self-satisfied shithead. Judge for yourself.
Now, this one only one appearance in a long career. May not have been his finest moment describing women as incapable of intellectualism and accusing homosexuals of forming a nefarious conspiracy. Perhaps his views, as they say, evolved.
Notable in the obituaries today, was the headline crediting both the careers of Hannah Gadsby and Dave Chappelle to work of Mort Sahl, along with the incantation that you were "lucky" to be offended by the Great Man, which got me to thinking...

Feels great to read this.
Great to learn the guy was undermining from the beginning.
This bummed me out. I think Craig did a really good job but learning he got the job because he was better “in meetings” and because Lasally had a gripe against Worldwide Pants hurts. Nowhere does the article say his test shows were better. They weren’t.
