Thiessen having a good chuckle about his fired liberal colleagues - some of whom he worked with for 15 years - is a good reminder that token conservatives at mainstream news outlets are/were there to destroy them, not to contribute to them.

I mean its very much in line with Bernie's world view: It's divisive when a qualified woman runs for office, she should stay home in the kitchen and let the unqualified men just have the job that their dick entitles them to.

"Governor Mills is great, but for me, it's gotta be Planter!" is right there. Why would you go out of your way to make an enemy like that of someone who very well might be your colleague soon? I mean, I know, but jesus.

Have some fucking self respect. If we want to help people and we demonstrate that the GOP doesn’t want to and we make them help us do it anyway, they look weak, we look strong, they don’t get the credit. The only way it is bad for us is if you accept the “pain is good for us electorally” frame.

NOTE: Leavitt says Trump will "stop by for his routine yearly check up."
But…Trump had his annual check up already. 5 months ago. On April 11.

We’re not dealing with brilliant strategists cleverly laying traps, we’re dealing with impulsive whiners whose advantage is contempt for laws, norms, and morality.
They’re not pulling some elaborate trick, they’re just willing—even eager—to do things regular, principled people consider off limits.

I think there's a lot of truth in this.
You have a few stubborn mules like Larry Kudlow, still insisting against all evidence that trickle-down economics actually works.
The rest of them move further right, because admitting the left might have had a point is inconceivable.

Donald Trump has heard the wails and lamentations of all the Rust Belt communities left behind by neoliberalism, and he has a message for them: fuck you and die

Ruben Gallego on whether Trump is talking to Democrats:
“Look, the President clearly has some kind of dementia, so I think there's a he's probably talking to himself, or think he's talking to a Democrat, but I sincerely doubt that that's actually he's actually physically talking to a Democrat.“

IMO lyrics are just dumb on paper. one of my most embarrassing moments was when i was handing my Oasis cd to a friend in HS and a teacher snatched it and started reading aloud the lyrics to "She's Electric". (for reference: genius.com/Oasis-shes-e...)

A life update: this wound up paying off. I'm still applying to several jobs that are hopefully careers, but I've got my survival needs covered by a job at the airport that I'm apparently pretty good at.
And instead of being in an office alone, which was driving me mad, I see 20k people a day.

[Kidman walks into the bedroom]:We come to this place for magic.
We come to laugh, to cry, to care.
Because we need that, that feeling we get when the lights begin to dim.
And we go somewhere we've never been before; not just entertained, but reborn. Together.

If we had a functional press the WH would at least have to come up with a story for why Trump keeps disappearing for several days about once a month and then reappearing with bruises on his hands. Like that seems like it could be a big story!

"Of course I voted for the rainbow fascist Kkkopmala Holocaust, but the Democrat party should have done more to actually earn votes" sounds an awful lot like "I didn't actually vote for Harris, in fact, and I really want more people to give me absolution for what I did."

One of the consequences of right-wing people buying up different platforms to coddle reactionaries is that, at some point, these guys find out real quick that IRL most people hate them. Blue checks on Twitter won't keep people from beating your ass if you pull this edgelord shit in public.

in a lot of ways, this is an argument to abolish the electoral college, so you can't regionalize presidential voters. trump had voters in every state and city! he had to be reminded of that when wanting to withhold wildfire money from california!

and importantly, hereditary Catholics know that you don't get into the Holy Father's replies and argue the Bible with him if you disagree; what you do is acknowledge Papal supremacy as absolute and then ignore him and do whatever you want all the time without ever acknowledging a contradiction
