Mara seems like a really cool person. I just listened to the behind the bastards episode with her and she felt exceptionally genuine.
Same here, I actually got this post from the Behind the Bastards sub. She was a great guest.
she was active in the Weird Twitter scene (pre musk) and blew up a bunch of mine and my friends dumb joke tweets.
Mara is fantastic. I especially like her voicing „The Old Woman Who secretly lives in your house“ in „Welcome to Nightvale.“
Came here looking for this. She was excellent in that role.
This made me look up the term secular in context to Judaism. How did I not know that until now?
Daniel Radcliffe is Irish and Jewish?
Daniel Radcliffe is allergic to nickels??
Everyone’s allergic to nickels, if you eat enough of them

Aren’t you considered Jewish if your mother is Jewish?
Soooo his mom is Jewish and his dad is Irish…feels like you’re reeeeeeeally reaching for an “America Bad” here

That’s what happens when almost everyone in the country had ancestors who only came here in the last 200 years. The “American identity” is founded in the idea that either we or our ancestors were born somewhere else and then came here. It’s much different than someplace like the UK where so many are probably within a days walk of where one of their 10th great grandparents lived.
No, thats not just a British protective, that all of the world.
It is well known how Americans use their ancestry, just as you described.
And yes, it’s just odd, perhaps irritating (for Europeans), but it’s just how they decided to (self-?) identity, let them express themselves. And it’s not like they are keeping it a secret :).From a British perspective Americans seem to be very obsessed with their ancestry
Oh ok, well, in the mean time, say hi to your King and the Royal Family and your other nobility by ancestry for us.

American media love a spectacle… just like how non-Americans seem to delight in watching Americans self-immolate.
What did you say, Loyalist? You dare question my resolve? I am a soldier of the Continental Army, trained in the art of guerrilla warfare, honed by the fires of battle. I have crossed the Delaware, faced redcoats on the field, and I possess a skill set beyond your comprehension.
You think your king and army can intimidate me? Think again. I have the will of liberty coursing through my veins, and a mind sharper than any bayonet. I have fired my musket with unmatched accuracy, and I’ve outmaneuvered your kind at every turn.
You are nothing to me but a loyalist lackey, and I will rain down a hail of rebellion upon you. You’re not prepared for the force that is the spirit of independence! I will take to the battlefield and make you regret ever crossing paths with an American patriot.
I’ll unleash a storm of cannon fire that will echo through the ages. You can’t even begin to fathom the lengths to which I would go to defend my freedom, and when I’m through, you’ll be begging to be part of my cause.
So, while you sit there in your fine London attire, clutching your tea, remember this: I fight not just for myself, but for my countrymen and the very ideals of liberty. You’ve mistaken my humility for weakness, but I assure you, the wrath of a free man is something you cannot comprehend.
Try me, you loyalist fool.
Has a copypasta just been born?
I just learned that her cousin is Ben Shapiro…
Oh really? Damn… Based on her appearance on Behind the Bastards the other week, I’ll just say it sounds like we’d have something in common, I hate my idiot cousin too. lol
Yeah, I bet family gatherings are… interesting to say the least, lmao
