I can read and write. I have curiosity and opinions. I like to think I abhor hypocrisy and nurture empathy, that my beliefs are supported by evidence… but we know that isn’t always the case, don’t we?

The far-right moving the goalposts to "technically he was an ephebophile" is the most pathetically predictable development in this saga.

Honestly I think the whole Craig era could be considered a complete Bond arc. First movie he meets M and becomes 007, subsequent movies introduce Q and Moneypenny, and the final film he sacrifices himself for his family. If the beginning wasn’t an issue why should the end?

Yes, this was the laziest possible way they could increase the stakes of the movie, and they kept doing it over and over.

They have raised millions by fermenting outrage in their audience, but won’t spend a dime to help Davis pay her fine. She should sue them for encouraging her obstruction in the first place.

Accents were likely different back then— look at Star Trek, the French captain Jean Luc Picard’s accent sounds British to our 21st century ears!

...because it's public policy you're talking about, not a trade secret. Inviting scrutiny to make it a better plan is a GOOD idea, unless your plan doesn't actually exist and unveiling your "concept of a plan" would invite justified ridicule.

I replaced the Facebook icon with Bluesky on my phone months ago and am better for it. Any community I used to feel there drowned under the pile of scam ads, AI slop, and algorithm-served negativity long ago.

I awoke Saturday morning with this album in my head and now I can say it’s delightful to put it on and enjoy a cup of coffee with on the Maine coast.

You'd think that the administration would welcome the legal ruling that gives them the ability to fulfill a benefit that keeps children from starving.

What kind of sociopath is upset that they are allowed to do the right thing?

I don't know why he would want to take a drug to make him fat, but it sure seems to be working.

So a Texan who sells a home to a New York resident will have to pay the state 100% of the sale price in a tariff?? I’m struggling to make sense of how a tariff on something like relocating would even work.

"Let them eat coal"...?

Seriously, how do they find 100M for this when they claim they don't have any money to fund SNAP benefits?
