There will be a million thinkpieces on MTG's behavior and resignation, but I simply refer you to any and all Jasmine Crockett videos and statements for the plain truth on her.

Vereinbart.

I'll admit sometimes I'm lazy and will post one. They can be a guilty pleasure from time to time. But you're right, they do all that, and I've ended up deleting some.

Ah, so the truth is it's worse than that meme, it's always been shitty.

The latter. He doesn't care.

What's wild is you can be super vague on the subject and 99% of people will easily intuit what you mean because it's so anticipated.

a riveting read, there is so much density of ideas here.

Just deep in my thoughts about this show as the struggle over the military's soul in our country is on the line.

what it means to have a just, civil, and functional society, and the cost of sacrificing any of those virtues and values, even in the face of extreme duress as depicted in the show.

I feel you could write a mini thesis on any episode within its miniseries and 4 seasons, and it would be

This will sound dorky to some, but I can't recommend the remake of BSG enough in this day and age. Yeah, it's about humans and robots duking it out in space, but it's so much more nuanced than that. It spends so much time exploring the rule of law, the role of the military, the roles of leaders,

🧵

I think about this line often from BSG.

I keep a close eye on who takes money from special interests. It's always disheartening and frustrating when you see a Dem make a good point (i.e. Cory Booker occasionally), only to find out they happily take AIPAC and other monied interest money.

It makes their words ring hollow.

to believe their biases, being rooted in reality is completely optional for them.

All I'll say to that is my hat is off to experts who know how to deprogram cult members, because I am clearly unqualified. That shit is beyond me, and they are doing the Lord's fucking work.

parrot at work at times, and they seemingly get close to that 'aha' 💡 moment, only for them to completely regress the next day, parroting another easily disproven lie.

So I'm convinced it's not a matter of proving anything to them, challenging them on their sources, it's that they simply want

🧵

The nuttiest part about these revelations with the influencers being from foreign countries?

MAGA won't even pay attention to that controversy and just keep sipping their Koolaid.

I have taken the time to methodically, carefully, deconstruct easily disproven lies some of my MAGA coworkers

🧵

potential of this country's promises, despite us constantly failing to meet them and taking 2 steps back for every 1 step forward.

medically, we are worse off under this regime. By every metric, America has been degraded by this regime, and it is deeply distressing and embarrassing to call myself an American.

I don't say all of that because I hate America, I say it because we can and should do better, and I love the

🧵

DOGE is simply Musk building backdoors and landing lucrative contracts.

ICE is simply Proud Boys with badges living their power fantasies on brown and black people they hate.

Tariffs simply hurt Americans.

RFK Jr is simply bringing back diseases.

Institutionally, morally, economically,

🧵

I'll enjoy watching their sentencing hearings.

It was never about justice or keeping people safe. It was about terrorizing, hurting, and murdering brown people to the delight of MAGA everywhere.

Isn't it curious how we properly tax jackpot winnings but not billionaires?

On this Doctor Who Day, my personal favourite episode of the show is 'Listen', with Peter Capaldi and Jenna Coleman.

It's creepy at times, plays with some very deep themes about fear, goes to the very end of the universe, and is highly emotional. I just loved it.

The reason theists talk in terms of moral standards is that they feel this position favors whatever god claim they happen to subscribe to.

Otherwise, they would be talking about empathy and weighing the consequences of our actions with regard to others.

Nor is he an expert in anything else. At all.

Wondering if Miller wrote those tweets. Feels more like him and not Trump. Doesn't change how unhinged/unlawful they are, just an observation.

❤️❤️ hope so, donated a few times now, myself.

We sided with the greedy airlines.

A century+ of evidence that Russia doesn't respect its neighbors' sovereignty, time and again. But sure, it's on Zelenskyy to concede, not the bully who started it.

Just showing his true allegiance, like all Republicans do when dealing with their true boss.
