This is the logical endpoint of anti-anti-Trumpism: "I'm all alone. I'm afraid of everything. There's no one to trust."

All while living in a wealthy, internally peaceful society, earning a hefty paycheck, and getting regular reminders of the high status that you've enjoyed since birth.

A poll showing the Democrats are viewed as elitist by 43% of people while Republicans are viewed as elitist by 60%. It also shows that only 31% of people view Dems as tough, and 56% view Republicans as tough. 60% of people view Republicans as extreme and only 42% view Dems as extreme.

A lot of obvious stuff in this poll (people want Dems to act with more conviction and stop tearing their ACLs trying to reach across the aisle), but the thing I learned is that Republicans are viewed as the elitist ones now! Run with that! Usain Bolt with that shit!

A Complimentary Profile Of Jason Lee That Was Surprisingly Difficult To Publish | Defector If you walked down Colorado Boulevard in the Eagle Rock neighborhood of Los Angeles at some point in the past three years, you might have noticed a modest, pueblo-style beige building with “PHOTO” pai...

After Jason Lee opened a camera shop in Eagle Rock, I thought, man, that'd be a fun story to do. I did not know that it would eventually lead to him threatening to take me to court. For @defector.com, the whole bloody affair:

you know I would say her matching pink phone case really makes this, gives Goodwin a huge "sad loser man at the end of Legally Blonde" vibe

My mixed feelings about Teddy are "is he awesome?" or "no, is he awesomer than that?"

i stand with my trans homies! 🏳️‍⚧️

fuck this administration and the rotten animals who’re in charge! and fuck the disingenuous losers who are just “asking questions”!! here’s a question i’m “just”asking: when will you die!?

Yeah, it's a shame Mr Preen didn't stop after the first post, that was a solid back and forth flaming!

A complete inability to pick a single candidate who isn't built entirely of flaws.

And it seems as though they have decided to ruin people’s lives frankly to prove they could. They allied with the right to oppress a vulnerable minority group in order to prove that they could not be “canceled” for “just asking questions.”

I really hate anti-trans politicians, and I especially hate it because it was a culture war issue where we were clearly winning and then a bunch of nominally liberal people at the Times and the Atlantic decided to reverse that and they did.

One small positive of Trevor Zegras not making Team USA even tho he probably deserved it is that I didn’t have to see any examples of him being a Trump-loving shithead.

still grimly chuckling about this. growing up I honestly thought the two main options were Catholic and Jewish, with Protestant relegated to roughly the same level of minority religious status as Muslim or Hindu

it's fair to judge Democratic leadership on what they do; having your view of them fixed by anonymous claims about what they're considering doing or might have done is not a good idea.

Maybe he's just REALLY pro-Latveria so you can't let him be in charge of non-Latverians?

Nah, I got nothing.

The primary only has room for 1 insufferable narcissist with their head up their ass and it's a crowded field. I doubt Shapiro, the one with least access to capital, could top the others, but we'll see in about 15 months.

Poller : what's ur single issue

Poller : oh ok i mean like in what way are we talking immigration or taxation or

I think it was trauma-related. The last time I played that deck I came back from 6 life and smoked them (Avatar Aang)

LOL at yet another article complaining about the NBA's 65 games requirement. What do you mean, you applauded this rule when you thought it'd only target Joel Embiid and Kawhi Leonard and now it's being applied to your faves?

Turns out it's difficult to win a Commander game when everyone just concentrates on killing your characters specifically.

U.S. men's hockey with Curt-Schilling-in-Boston levels of good will squandering. A 25-mile lead in the good will marathon and they tripped on their dicks right at the finish line.

All my life, Democrats have bent over backwards to run scrupulously scandal-free administrations, while Republicans have wallowed publicly and unapologetically in crime and corruption ... and Democrats have gotten zero advantage for it. Zilch.

I can't hate the family too much for Captain Measles because they did ALL come together to tell us how much he sucked ass.

if you read nothing else from rodger sherman in your entire life please read these paragraphs from the end of his newsletter, possibly the most important paragraphs anyone has ever written about Team USA

I mean, there are a few factors in play there other than age 🤣

I remember posting when Bob Uecker died, he hit a homer off Warren Spahn (b. 1921) and called a homer by Jackson Chourio (b. 2004)

The implication here is straightforward: that people with platforms, including Democratic politicians and media, need to keep highlighting the threat to democracy specifically — centering democracy as an issue in both word and deed.

To save democracy, you have to actually talk about democracy.
