You probably do not remember me from such random things as My Favorite Citizen, Situation at 1200, MyDD, Blue Jersey, and the Congress for the New Urbanism.

My subscription has been cancelled for a while now so I'm not surprised, but I still struggle to understand why the Times thinks stuff like this is worth printing.

Yeah, well, this is what abusers do when they don't get their way. They destroy the house that everyone lives in because long-term consequences take a back seat to short-term indulgences of fear-inducing rage. We're in the smashing plates and taking a baseball bat to lamps phase of this now.

A screenshot of the story referenced in the first image, which reads as follows: 

"Mental health and politics enter his defense

He also makes cryptic references to mental health.

โ€œThe state is not doing right of addressing this mental health crisis and I hope that Ciatterelli can fix this s---,โ€ he says, making a reference to a candidate in the upcoming gubernatorial election."

It feels like it should be bigger news that the guy who murdered two girls in New Jersey invoked his support for Jack Ciattarelli in explaining his disgusting actions.

Iโ€™ve seen this man do campaign ads in four different languages. Heโ€™s out there talking to people. Language free of stupid political LinkedInese. Goofy smile, serious ideas, genuine care for others. This is what the Left needs to look like.

This should be the entire NJ Governor's race messaging at this point. Unacceptable.

Yeah - he was my maternal great grandmother's uncle. She used to spend a lot of time with them in Maine and DC.

To be fair, the government giving away free renewable resources to the people *is* something a lot of left wingers would like.

Friendly reminder that RFK Jr. used to put animals in a blender to impress his friends and nobody asked him about it during his confirmation hearing.

If someoneโ€™s not mourning the death of Robert Redford in a manner thatโ€™s consistent with your views, make sure you set up a database, call their employer, and get them fired.

More than ten years after Gamergate, which provided the seeds of the disgruntled young man-to-MAGA pipeline (explicitly identified by Steve Bannon) it is kind of amazing this is the case. Even after people like Hasan Piker, made popular in part via Twitch, became a political fixture.

Years from now, I'll fully expect to hear this casually discussed as if it was a fact.
