Bezos is NOT a newspaper guy — he’s a businessman. To him, the Washington Post is just a line-item on a spreadsheet. More importantly, Bezos is also a government contractor. He’s the founder of Blue Origin, the aerospace company behind those dick-shaped rockets.

Now, Bozo's no dummy, he saw the Space Nazi skippin’ like a dipshit & giving hundreds of millions to Donny, & a dim light bulb went off over his head. "Oh shit, this is going to affect my bottom line". So he phones up the Washington Post & tells them that’s it, there will be no endorsement of Kamala Harris. Sure enough, 20 minutes after the announcement was made, this happened:

"Ex POTUS Trump met with leaders from the Jeff Bezos-owned aerospace company Blue Origin following his speech in Austin, Texas.

The Republican had a short meeting with the aerospace company CEO David Limp & VP of government relations Megan Mitchell, according to The Associated Press."

Editor Robert Kagan, who quit his WaPo after the news broke that the WaPo wouldn’t be endorsing Kamala:

“Trump waited to make sure that Bezos did what he said he was going to do, & then met with the Blue Origin people, which tells us that there was an actual deal made, that Bezos communicated with Trump, & they set up this quid pro quo.”

Bezos’s non-endorsement of Kamala Harris is actually a ringing endorsement of fascism. Capitulating in advance to a bully because you’re afraid of something that might happen is literally how appeasement & fascism works. Bezos knows that Donny will blow a fucking gasket and seek retribution if the Post backs his opponent.

Sorry to be the one to tell you this Jeff, but no fucking way, bro. There is no placating someone who is a bottomless well of need & greed. Has giving your lunch money to the playground bully ever been the end of it? Of course not. You’ve proven yourself an easy mark, & he’s definitely coming back for more.

This was the WaPo in 2018:

Full disclosure: I am an alien and I DO NOT UNDERSTAND MANY FUNERARY RITES OF HUMANS.

In the NYC tri-state area, (maybe the Northeast USA in general - I don't know) they take the dead body & (whole train of cars) procession for a ride past their old house and in the case of cops/fireman, usually past their firehouse or precinct. ITS FUCKING BIZZARO WORLD!!

Usually after the burial a lot of the entourage goes to the diner for brunch/lunch which is the one thing I support that both Christians & Jews here do. Then maybe the closest friends and family back to decedents house to (for Christians) get drunk and tell stories about the poor sap.

Like I said, I don't get you humans a lot of the time but I think the Jews are closest to the best way to mourn (with a BIG exception to the Vikings send off to Valhalla - THOSE GUYS KNOW HOW TO PARTY!)

The Jews "sitting shiva" makes sense to me. Simple pine box. Buried as soon as practical. No rabbi needed - head of family does "service". Set mourning period. Go to decedants house instead of sanitary clinical depressing funeral home where some preacher who never met the guy does a eulogy. EVERY visitor brings / orders food so you don't cook for days or weeks. Sit on uncomfortable box to remind yourself your not supposed to be comfy & cover mirrors so you're not concerned with vanity - all so you can truly focus on the decedant. All old photo albums throughout the home broken out for guests to look at. Everybody kvells, noshes & yentas in their shmatas.

So? What's it like by you? Does any other faiths funerary rites appeal to you? If It were up to me every cemetery would be turned into a park, preserve, trail, ball field or playground.

I've given some thought to Parsi (Zoroastrian) rites (another faith I admire very much) & the Tower of Silence for myself but will likely be made into a tree, plant or a diamond.

Is the Northeast just fucking insane with the drive by corpse?
