Words, both recreationally and professionally. Video games/comics/giant robots nerd, with a side of yelling about sports. Largely boring.

So if you say "I am a proud antisemite" but do not specifically call Israel a "colonial state" or deny the Holocaust (no criterion for saying it happened and was good?) then according to these guys you're wrong about being antisemitic?

He joined Dems+Massie+Bacon to pass a tariff repeal resolution the week before SCOTUS did it for them, I think that's it

One of the through-lines of this movement is saying "nobody has the GUTS to do the simple, obvious thing" about a situation where several dozen doctoral theses have analyzed and decided the best solution is Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

Of course, he doesn't HAVE to sign a bill for it to become law; after 10 days with no action it takes effect anyway

If this is the station I'm thinking of, their whole business model is soaking CIA employees because they're the only place to buy gas between the George HW Bush Center and the highway, and you know what, good for them

Yeah, if she'd promised to completely reverse course on a major issue, e.g. Gaza, the natural follow-up question would be "well why isn't the administration you're part of doing that already?" and there's no answer that doesn't make her look worse than she started off

The Fargo Woodchippers. It’s like a baseball player was fed into a woodchipper but not really its an animated logo style.

Some of the Minor League promo team names are ok but sometimes they nail it.

Maybe they don't *deserve* to suffer but they *want* to and I don't know how you counter that democratically

Look, Democrats are just going to have to accept that rural voters have spoken, and they want their infrastructure to rot, their hospitals to close, and their children to die of preventable diseases

...Of course, if such a pill DID exist, it wouldn't even be ten years until capitalism REQUIRED we all took it. And would make sure to fill those hours with More Fucking Work.

Yeah, this seems honest and straightforward. The (potential) catch is that it's a factual declaration of what the agency's capacity is, not a concession by DOJ that they will agree to actually do all of this instead of appealing the order

Even if it takes years, we have to bring EVERYONE who made this happen to justice. No moving on, no letting this go.

Revenge is good enough motivation for me personally, but the nobler and important reason is to ensure that anyone who thinks of doing this again knows they’ll rot in prison for it.

Calling the task "beat a three hour game without help" instead of "finish MANIAC MANSION completely cold in a single sitting without getting stuck anywhere" is bananas
