As long as liberalism has existed with it's framework of rights, conservatives have reverse-engineered it to create boutique rights just for them & their loyal subjects/allies/dupes/whatever.
Here we go again!

Paris is too beautiful and sumptuous and engrossing to bother with things like the details of one’s writing, and I simultaneously envy and pity anyone who can make a permanent life there.

It cracks me up that he’s still here fellating himself while shutting down replies on literally everything he posts. Talk about creating your own echo chamber.

Maybe you can ask him whether he’s thought about getting a (real) editor.

The US could see a 30-40% decline in new international student enrollment, resulting in nearly $7 billion in lost revenue and more than 60,000 fewer American jobs. https://www.nafsa.org/fall-2025-international-student-enrollment-outlook-and-economic-impact

We don't talk enough about how ridiculously dominant and in the all-time, all-sports 🐐 conversation Katie Ledecky is.

100%. I checked this today to be sure. She’s won the 800 free at every single β€œmajor international meet” from 2012-2025. For reference, Michael Phelps’s longest similar streaks in the same event were the 200 fly (he won it from 2006-2011) and the 200 IM (2003-2008).

i think the correct way to think about the lonely boy question is not "how do we reach out to incels?" but "how do we make sure that a teenage boy looking for romantic advice isn't flooded with right-wing propaganda?"

I wish people cared about research more - this is devastating, and it should be a bigger story.

the position of the roberts court is both that racism isn’t real and that the constitution mandates a colorblindness so strict that it neither recognizes nor can act on social inequalities. incidentally, this is essentially the court’s holding in plessy v. ferguson.

oh they will definitely hold that the 14th and 15th amendments dictate that nothing can be done to ameliorate racial inequality or past racial discrimination, even in voting and representation, despite the fact that the text of both amendments clearly allows for such.

This shows the failure of leadership exhibited by Chief Justice Roberts and the Judical Conference. To know that your judges are experiencing this abuse and yet remain silent, even accommodating to this administration.

It's not just lack of leadership. It's passive destruction of a branch of govt.

Oh absolutely. And then we’re going to start to see all sorts of nakedly racist exceptions being applied.

The notion that resistance to authoritarianism should be comfortable and painless is a substantial reason why we have been so ineffective in resisting it.

Trump does shit every day that should get him impeached. But illegally punishing an entire country β€” and any Americans who use products or do businesses with anyone in Brazil β€” because it’s prosecuting its former president for attempting a violent coup is among the worst things he has done.

I’m not trans, so I don’t have the daily experience of the latest liberal great white hope cheerfully selling me down the river, but I can imagine what that must feel like! and for that reason I would NEVER whine at a trans person for being mad at chris buttihead or whoever
