George Soros Launches His Own Blog

A joke, you ask?

Not a joke.

All too real.

I guess Oliver Willis just wasn't delivering the knockout punch for him that he'd anticipated.

Karol says blogging just jumped the shark. I don't know if that's true, but all of a sudden this does seem sorta lame. It's like having your crazy pony-tailed hippie uncle force his way into the basement when you're hanging out with your friends and then keep dropping hints that he'd be game for "tokin' some kind" and suggesting to your girlfriend that she can take off her blouse if she likes, as he's "perfectly comfortable with the nude human form."

And you're like, "Get the fuck away from me or I'm telling mom, and then I'm calling your goddamned parole officer."

Damn that Soros. I knew I should have never gotten a blog. It's just too "trendy."

Hmmm. I wonder what the next hot thing will be, something where I can get in on the ground floor, get ahead of the curve.

I know: people aren't wearing enough hats!

Cheers,
Dave

At least I can still get into porn. I think that's Soros-safe.

Don't tempt him.

If his blog was about speculation and investing, I'm sure it'd be massively popular and hugely important. It's a pity it's not.

Can you please another topic, I hate seeing this at the top of the page, it makes me feel ill.

Chomsky had to shut down his comments within days of the popular discovery of his blog. Anyone want to start a pool for how quickly Soros will do the same?

Posted by: ccwbass on September 29, 2004 01:15 AM

Days? Chomsky closed his comments within hours. Just as well really, keep people from interfering with his speshial thoughts.

Soros says he spend BILLIONS fighting communists. Ummm...wasn't he a communist when he was in Hungary?

How he describes acquiring his fortune is Clintonesque in its fabrications and pieces conveniently left out (his "Insider Trading" conviction in Europe, and his trashing of nations economies sending millions into poverty.

A #1 SCUMBAG!!!

BTW...guess who the Communist Party USA is endorsing? http:\\www.cpusa.org

I think we're related because that's my smelly uncle, too! Shmuely, are you Ace?

On his blog, no one can pick up on Soros' Strangelove accent, which is doubtlessly a turnoff in places besides, say, a vampire coven.

Posted by: spongeworthy on September 29, 2004 09:01 AM

wow...I could be that uncle!!!

Posted by: Andy on September 29, 2004 12:50 PM

I'm assuming that the content on his blog so far has been put there for him by a minion. Be that as it may, I have a suggestion: Lord Soros, My Liege, may it please your grace to continue writing in the third person? The commoners, I am told, find it an endearing trait.

Posted by: Brian B on September 29, 2004 01:10 PM

I never did think he was getting his money's worth out of Willis.

Megyn Kelly finally calls out Candace Owens
Whoops, I meant she bravely attacks Sydney Sweeney for "bending the knee." (Sweeney put out a very empty PR statement saying "I'm against hate." Whoop-de-doo.)
Megyn Kelly claims she doesn't want to call people out on the right when asked about Candace Owens but then has no compunctions at all about calling people out on the right.
As long as they're not Candace Owens. Strangely, she seems blind and deaf to anything Candace Owens says. That's why this woman calls her "Megyn Keller."
She's now asking her pay-pigs in Pakistan how they think she should address the Candace Owens situation, and if they think this is really all about Israel and the Jews.

More revelations about the least-sexy broken relationship in media history
I'd wanted to review Parts 2, 3, and 4 of Ryan Lizza's revenge posts about Olivia Nuzzi, but they're all paywalled. I thought about briefly subscribing to get at them, but then I read this in Part 2:
Remember the bamboo from Part 1?

Do I ever! It's all I remember!
Well, bamboo is actually a type of grass, and underground, it's all connected in a sprawling network, just like the parts of this story I never wanted to tell. I wish I hadn't been put in this position, that I didn't have to write about any of this, that I didn't have to subject myself or my loved ones to embarrassment and further loss of privacy.

We're back to the fucking bamboo. Guys, I don't think I can pay for bamboo ruminations.
I think he added that because he was embarrassed about all the bamboo imagery from Part 1. He's justifying his twin obsessions: His ex, and bamboo. Which is not a tree but a kind of grass, he'll have you know.
Olivia Nuzzi's crappy Sex and the City fanfic book isn't selling, says CNN (and CNN seems pretty pleased about that)
On Tuesday, the book arrived in stores. At lunchtime, in the Midtown Manhattan nexus of media and publishing, interest in Nuzzi's story seemed more muted. The Barnes and Noble on Fifth Avenue had seven copies tucked into a "New & Notable" rack next to the escalator, below Malala Yousafzai's "Finding My Way." Not many had sold so far, a store employee said.

A few blocks uptown, at a branch of the local independent chain McNally Jackson Books, a few volumes lay on a table of new and noteworthy nonfiction near the front of the store. No one was lining up to get them, or even browsing. Bookseller Alex Howe told CNN around 3 p.m. that though the store had procured "several dozen" copies, not a single one had yet sold -- a figure he said was surprising, considering how many people in media and publishing work in the area.

"We ordered a lot and so far, people have not been beating down the door," Howe said. "I'm not sure where we're gonna put them because right now, supply is outpacing demand." (A manager at McNally Jackson noted that Howe was speaking only in a personal capacity, not as a representative of the store.)

She trashes Ryan Lizza for his "Revenge Porn" here. Emily Jashinsky says that when the Bulwark's gay grifter Tim Miller asked why she didn't report on the (alleged) use of ketamine by RFKJr., she broke down in tears and asked to end the interview.

Incumbent Senator John Cornyn (RINO - TX) betrayed his party and his country by voting in favor Biden's Afghan resettlement bill in 2021. Cornyn voted to bring in the Afghan who shot two National Guard soldiers on US soil. A vote for Cornyn is an endorsement of importing unvetted, radicalized murderers. [Buck]
