      A cold and sobering moment for me was reading the Buddha's dunks on the caste system and realizing that yes, it is thousands of terrible misanthropic years old, and it needs to fucking go.

    nothing says "this is a good map with good geographic analysis" like a map that literally equates a 4br mountain home with an ocean view in Maunawili, Hawaii and the most sinister of the half dozen or so shipping containers clustered between the TJ Maxx and the adult bookstore off 65 in Jeffersonville, Indiana.

    I still think it's funny that even by these racist ass liberal standards you can't deny that being born in Cuba is basically as good as the US.
