The power of the gift economy is constantly overlooked, and we wonder why our communities are miserable.

Married to an ex NFL player, constantly playing the sympathy card but still 100% pro-Trump. The full face smiling-lying that she does is very Alabama.

06.02.2026 13:05 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The angriest Leftists just want to see the βAmerican Imperial Hegemonyβ fall. They donβt care much about the consequences. They consider most civil right progress to be a waste of time because rich people still exist. Itβs mostly coastal bubble people or deeply online punks who hate their hometown.
06.02.2026 03:04 β π 3 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0They have been convinced that itβs us that want to hurt them. Apart from the Stephen Miller sickos, they are mostly kept in a perpetual state of fear which justifies any level of aggression in response.

Definition: A polling analyst who only looks at the margin between the top two choices and ignores undecideds. Mildly pejorative.
Usage:
"The Dem is at -5 favorability!"
"He's at 20% fave, 25% unfave, 55% don't know. Don't be a margin bro."
we're at 653 now ...
05.02.2026 22:52 β π 3 π 1 π¬ 0 π 1I remember the first time someone explained crypto to me and I kept asking what the function was. Like I understand a digital currency. But why make all the PCs waste so much energy βminingβ coins, which is just technological ditch-digging. Why not rent that βcomputeβ to researchers for something.

05.02.2026 20:44 β π 2 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0The problem with it and so many of our laws is that they are discretionary. DAβs get to pick which crimes they prosecute and Congress gets to pick when they care about high crimes.
05.02.2026 20:40 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I find it fascinating that light speed is a cap on speed, as we can understand it but it is technically achievable. Where as 0Β° Kelvin is a theoretical point of none movement.
05.02.2026 20:38 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I agree with that, Iβm just saying that Bernie was a weak candidate in a lot of America, regardless of how popular the polices.

05.02.2026 01:16 β π 42950 π 6208 π¬ 2346 π 1317I shocked people think this was even a question? Zohran clearly had to cash in a lot of favors to get so much so quickly. This being the most obvious price-to-play.
This is why I said Leftists canβt hold power because they canβt compromise. Zohran is actually governing, this is what it takes.
This view completely overlooks the power structures within the party. Clinton and Biden were much more popular with conservative black voters who dominate many Southern states post the Civil Rights Era. Bernie never turned out these voters and consistently polled poorly with them.

The lurid fantasy at the heart of the gun rights movement is playing out, but the leading roles, as they were previously imagined, have been reversed.
It wonβt be funded. Thatβs why they were also so invested in Epsteinβs island. It was like a proof-of-concept for BS libertarian free-for-all, but if you have money. Zuck is building his bunkers in Hawaii and Musk is working on creating company towns in Texas.
04.02.2026 21:59 β π 0 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I taught a class on βhopeβ last year and the few theorists whoβve written on it all point out that hope is the harder choice - that despair is easy and too often fashionable
04.02.2026 21:24 β π 630 π 162 π¬ 28 π 13The US shouldnβt have non State territories. Iβm convinced that weβve been stuck on 50 states for a long time because itβs a nice round number. 52-57 states would force people to actually think about the USβs behavior and white North Dakota needs two Senators.
