they know they're supposed to be blaming the Democrats for the shutdown making people's lives worse, but they're so passionate about the concept of making people's lives worse that they can't stop themselves from talking about how they think people's lives should be worse

i don’t think you can maximin vote share with polls and spreadsheets, and i think it is a problem that the most prominent and influential political commentators right now are more devotees of data than experts in narrative

Joe Manchin: "I felt a great disturbance in the Filibuster Force, as if millions of voices suddenly cried out in terror and were suddenly silenced. I fear something terrible has happened."

We can disagree about policy. But we should never disagree about whether a child deserves to eat.

We can disagree about policy. But we should never disagree about whether a child deserves to eat.

We literally do disagree about this, though. Some politicians want to take food from children and some politicians don't. Pretending this "isn't political" just allows the child-starving ghouls to get away with it.

Tell people who supports the *political program* to feed children and who doesn't!

Platner taking his campaign in a β€œthey’re trying to get me” direction after the tattoo is a flashing, Fetterman-shaped warning light for what he could be like if elected, and I think it’s enlightening to see who can see that and who can’t because he’s β€œupsetting the right people”.

Without Zion pretty darn bad.

Of course it was a game and then they let go of the rope so hard to say.

I think Joe is trying to give different young guys rotation slots on different games. So instead of both getting 5 minutes in two games one gets 15 and then the other gets 15 next game

John Dickerson To Depart CBS News In First Major Talent Exit Under New Paramount Owners John Dickerson, co-anchor of CBS Evening News who has been with the network since 2009, said that he is exiting at the end of this year.

dickerson is one of the best broadcast journalists in the game, and someone who would clearly be a real asset to a new leader interested in strengthening the network's journalism. but, of course, we know weiss isn't actually interested in journalism as such.

Of course this game is marred by referee fuck ups right down to the final buzzer.

But what hurt the most was giving Detroit 2nd chance points on *almost every possession* in the final 3-4 minutes.

It’s remarkable how closely Trump 2 is a replay of Trump 1, where his win shocked a bunch of people and everyone’s now overcompensating because they’re freaked out. What makes it worse this time around is that there’s an obvious answer for why he won (inflation) and people are choosing to ignore it.
