DOI noped out before all this nonsense apparently because we didn't get this guidance and our website doesn't have it atm.

The immigrant you’re most likely to meet in the ER is probably your doctor

There has to be a way to kill horse race coverage.

it me

ER doc here! This is a lie. Wait times are up because the American healthcare system is an unsustainable business model and a for-profit national healthcare system just doesn’t work. These problems will continue to get worse until we change that system. It literally has nothing to do with immigrants

Pretty sure that's now no longer on the table. First thing any Dem admin is going to do is either pack the court or find an end around to the amendment process to reform it because the problem is now impossible to ignore

"You ever go to an ER and wonder why there's one hospital with one doctor serving an area with like 2000 people? Well have you considered that some of the other people trying to access medical care ARE BROWN??????

I'm trying to switch to a newsletter instead of doomscrolling and there's a lot of bad options.

I have a woof though, and that's all I need

Brazil's soy farmers raze Amazon rainforest despite deforestation pact Brazilian soy farmers are pushing further into the Amazon rainforest to plant more of their crops, putting pressure on a landmark deal signed two decades ago aimed at slowing deforestation.

This is terrible for everyone. Soy is one the driving forces in Brazil behind deforestation

If you are talking longevity, then yes I agree they can't pivot to a stable state that lasts longer than 5-10 years, if that. Not comforting for those in the way, though.

In the age of tiktok, I don't know that it's possible. There was already a decades-long effort to associate leftism/liberalism with condescension and we can't defeat that apparatus by expecting perfect message discipline when they can portray randos on social media as emblematic of the movement.

Any act that results in money being given to someone, no matter how demeaning or dangerous, is a net good. Wealthy people are good. Good people are wealthy. If you don't like it well you're just mad you aren't rich and maybe you should be rich if you want to say anything about it okay

Why? I read portions of the transcript, it's literally the same thing. The likelihood of Ben suddenly not being bad or being bad in a unique way after two decades of consistent messaging is very slim, so I feel no obligation to consume every piece of media he produces in its entirety.

Most people were able to piece together who Shapiro was and why he was horrible from him saying the exact same shit as in this interview for the last two decades, but I guess this is your first time encountering the man.

His piece about Kirk was centrist gibberish and he keeps doubling down. He appeared alongside Shapiro shortly afterwards. Both of the pieces were infected by the rancid horse-race adjacent tendency to comment on polarizing figures who support Trump without analyzing their content on the merit.

Didn't even make it out of the opening section

Fair enough, my apologies

That's fair, and I'm not saying she would have won. My point is that Trump is an electoral anomaly and removing him confounds so many other variables that betting on what would have happened after his hypothetical death is impossible.

Again, I don't agree. Vance polled way worse than Trump, so did DeSantis. Again, you are assuming Trump is easily replaced and the last 8 years of the GOP trying to primary him and underperforming him downballot suggests otherwise.

First off, how do we know Haley even gets the nomination? The infighting would have been bad. And second, martyr or not, the GOP is the Party of Trump. They didn't even have a platform. That personality cult is not easy to replace. I don't know if they snap into line as quickly as you think.

But the GOP's pile of narcissistic loons won't splinter and in-fight in the face of dear leader's death

Too late, Batman. Once this Tylenol floods the city's water supply, my wiki won't run out of editors ever again

This assumes the Dem coalition was an even more fractured mess which I don't know of it's possible, and that Trump's tactics work without Trump which, again, I'm not convinced they do. Didn't work for DeSantis

We have watched literally every contender for succession just wither away. The far right desperately want someone younger and more coherent and voters refuse. The idea they would be more organized and get better results ignores the cult of personality the movement has been built on.

Yeee

I started recently and so the MGs are still a bit scary, but I'm loving what I've done so far.

Gunpla you say?

Boomers

My parents watched the late shows until they couldn't stay up that late. My aunt and uncle watch all of them either at night or recorded the next day. If ABC hadn't reversed course they would have been maoists by October.

I actually think it's the same as saying states should ignore the Fugitive Slave Act with Personal Liberty Laws.

It's so tiresome how institutionalists act as if the old constitutional order has any meaning atm. Vazquez Perdomo alone makes it clear this is about power, words on paper and past precedent be damned. You want your rules-based order back? Win the fight against fascism first.
