Sometimes I think my plots in D&D have unrealistic coincidences, then the real world is like

"We came from space! We're not here to fuck around!"

Yeah, I guess implicit in calling for "training" is "good training that's good for public safety."

That assumes a lot about the quality of the training, though. I'm open to many, layered causes.

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

Trump's "mastermind" Vought is stymied once again in his yearlong crusade to protect corporations and screw over consumers by shutting down the CFPB.

Trump’s dismantling of consumer bureau creates headache for small banks The president wants to eliminate the agency. Community lenders worry that will make them less competitive.

No, this is why we need to protect American penis and testicle manufacturing jobs.

CFPB Union Applauds Appeals Court Decision as Affordability Win for Working People The D.C. Circuit vacated a three-judge panel’s decision that could have permitted Russell Vought to dismantle the CFPB.

Russ Vought loses in court yet again! The full DC Circuit vacated a panel decision that could have permitted Vought to dismantle the CFPB. Amidst an affordability crisis, today’s ruling is a necessary and timely win for CFPB workers and the everyday Americans we serve.

How ya like me now?

I messed up the meme but WHATEVER.

Rand Paul and I have always agreed consistently on a few things.

What's weird is that it really seems like Rand Paul and I agree on more things now than "generic Republican" and I agree on, and I feel like that used to be upside-down.

"Beyond a reasonable doubt" obviously has some leeway in terms of each individual's idea of "reasonable," which I think is a sound idea, but...
