I’ve read the pirate stuff. I still to this day haven’t read that whole article about owls.

re: the attempted swiftboating of walz, it’s wild that republicans think they have some sort of gotcha by [falsely] implying he didn’t want to serve in a historically unpopular war that everyone now agrees was a horrific waste of lives, time and money

Based on nothing more than a video of Vance saying he likes beer, I now find myself doubting whether he actually likes beer. He comes off as so much the opposite of genuine that it is impossible to take even his most mundane statements as even plausibly true. The man has resting mendacity face.

James Carville STFU and let a new generation talk challenge.

Look, if Seth Moulton expects to be recognized by Joe Biden (or *anyone*, really), then maybe it’s Seth Moulton’s responsibility to look more interesting.

I am genuinely in a fucking rage that this whole fucking thing was fomented by a bunch of Hollywood megadonors who wouldn't put themselves out there when they could have put their names and reputations on the line and instead are trying to gut check the Dems into a disastrous decision.

Do not let up on Project 2025.

My X-Men collection totally survived. I had a subscription to She-Hulk.

He wrote some of the best What ifs.

Trump-backed Republican platform tempers language on abortion The Republican Party released its platform on Monday that denies anti-abortion activists within the party the far-reaching language they sought on abortion and embraces the views of its presidential candidate, Donald Trump.

CLASSIFYING ABORTION AS A 14TH AMENDMENT ISSUE IS NOT "TEMPERING" LANGUAGE ON ABORTION, IT IS EXPLICITLY IDENTIFYING FETAL PERSONHOOD AS A PARTY GOAL

THAT'S WHY THE GOP AGREED TO IT

THEY LIKE IT

IT DOES WHAT THEY WANT IT TO DO: ALLOW THE PROSECUTION OF ABORTION AS HOMICIDE

the main obstacle to moving on from Biden Old is that it requires a bunch of people to take the L who are congenitally incapable of doing so

I hope that everyone sees now that it’s not about the candidates on the Democratic side having “flaws” as much as the machine designed to construct these very normal, human limitations into excuses not to vote for them. Gore, Kerry, Clinton, now Biden: It’s always about sowing apathy.

I don't love Biden. I really don't.

But it is just fucking ridiculous to have weathered YEARS of people telling me to stop criticizing him because it will suppress the vote, only to have people with way more power than me do *this.*

if this was really about who is mentally fit to be president, trump and RFK, jr. have both, repeatedly, over many years in public life, demonstrated that they’re incapable of working through logical patterns of thought or process to establish the veracity of outlandish claims. seems important.

I have no idea the best path re Biden but I do know a solid week straight of “Biden Old” and “Rich Dems Worried” above-the-fold stories are *obscene* in the face of SCOTUS using the Constitution to wipe their asses purely in the service of reinstating a felon rapist as president. Crazy-making shit.

Surely reporters will be asking Trump and his campaign to identify the things on Project 2025 he disagrees with and what part are "absolutely ridiculous and abysmal"

His own people wrote the fucking thing. So get the answers. Obsess over this for a change

Everyone is always afraid to say why people like Trump or Marie Le Pen have some level of popularity and it’s just that there’s a lot of people in the world who believe in racism. You end up with these goofy ass explanations for Trump where it’s NAFTA or shit and it’s like no you know what it is

Amidst it all I absolutely cannot get over that the fascistic fall of America is being headlined by a truly all-time weenie lameass loser

Or don’t want to leave. Thea see places are our homes (speaking from Mississippi). Why should we cede our homes to these assholes?

Here is something my movie-addled brain thinks about way too often: the scene in RotJ where Han fools the Imperials into opening the bunker door and that one officer is like "send three squads, to help!" The hope and optimism in that guy's voice. Just so chipper. Convinced everything's gonna be a-ok

Look, I don't know who's going to win in November. But the fact that we're in this position as a country is an indictment of the entire system. Garbage country.

A WJS notification whose headline, in all lowercase, is "one way to stay young forever: type in lowercase."

Folks, I hate to tell you this, but the affectation of all lowercase typing is officially cancelled. Find alternate orthographic rebellions.

The biggest mistake I see Republicans making is thinking a certain number of weeks or certain kind of exceptions will make people tolerate abortion bans when truthfully most people don't want the government involved at all here and that alone should be the question we're debating.

they never lost their affinity

Hormonal birth control places reliable pregnancy prevention in women’s hands, unlocking their dignity, potential, and self-determination. It is as vital to human thriving as antibiotics. Attacks on it are attacks on women as citizens, workers, and social equals.

Seeing some takes that are like "Rufo isn't an evil genius" and like one of the biggest things people are going to have to understand about the coming years is that wielding power and harming others rarely requires cleverness or intelligence to do.
