Obvious Pseudonym

Deepest belly laugh I've had in a while

Nothing is a bigger tell the WaPo is just a Tory shitrag now than pieces like this. Just dumbasses complaining about the most tedious shit.

First literal LOL in a while from that pic of Rubio's shoes holy shit

I was going to say Polis is just a stupid asshole, but your description is more generous and informative as to precisely why he's a stupid asshole.

I think a lot of the anxiety in high-cost cities is the absurdly large incomes you "need" to feel "comfortable".

Quotes intentional because 'need' and 'comfortable' are highly variable depending on the person.

I'm quite convinced Colbert is better read than probably like 2/3 of the people who would conceivably run for president.

There's never been a better time to be an amoral scumbag who's conventionally good looking.

There's a pathological obsession with doing social and economic policy solely via the tax code and it drives me insane.

This is pretty much why I support primaries across the board, even for ostensibly 'good' reps/Senators. Most of these people need to be sufficiently scared of crossing the base.

Some fitness influencers will spend 10 years milking this (Very good) advice with increasingly stupid variations just for YouTube clicks.

War w/ Iran too depressing. More talk about trap bar deadlifts and front squats

Yeah, I think you need to be a legitimate clinical narcissist for it to actually work.

Not remotely the most important thing, but I just fucking hate how that dude looks. The hair, the wardrobe, his dipshit face. Everything about him is just tough to look at.

The sheer levels of degenerate gambling, financial crimes, and addictive substance abuse definitely has a 20s vibe for sure.

Many people have noted that the last time this many world leader were this stupid and detached from reality was probably around WWI. Anyways....

In many ways, the tri-state MAGA asshole is a peak example of the chud specimen.

Deeply, genuinely tired of people who went to Ivy League schools and have never lived outside of NYC, Boston or DC tell normal liberals in red and purple states that they're in a bubble.

One of my core unironic crank beliefs is that you shouldn't be allowed to even apply to grad school (definitely MBA and law, not sure about medical) without having demonstrably worked 2 years full-time in a shit job. Amazon warehouse, roofing, laying blacktop, call center, whatever.

Yglesias is a perfect example of someone with (genuinely, sincerely) perfect solid intellectual horsepower who has completely degraded their ability to reason by negative polarization via online brain poisoning.

Primarily noteworthy for Newsom's function as a weathervane, but very interesting.

Not just RFK. I have become unhealthily obsessed with Hegseth's fake 315 bench.

I'm not sure which proportion is people who *don't* read versus people who *can't* read. I used to think it was like 80/20, but I'm increasingly convinced it's like 60/40 don't/can't.

Quite obviously a normal, happy dude with hobbies and intersts besides posting ✔️

I will simply note that certain critics tend to put a little more... mustard on their rhetoric when they're aiming it at a black person.

Last I heard Thomas Chatterton Williams was mad because Bouie 'fostered a mean culture' (ie - said my writing output sucked) but apparently it's much dumber than that.

Bouie literally does a podcast with Ganz, who will readily admit that he (Ganz) is a disagreeable asshole!

Yep - all these fancy people are soft *and* stupid.

I don't *quite* believe that you should be banned from punditry until you're at least 30, but I'm pretty close to believing it.

A little on the nose to note that Trump and Hegseth are sexual assaulters at best and most likely repeat violent rapists, but it's also accurate.

Every time I see some incel/manosphere shit, my first question is like, do these kids not have fathers actively in their lives?

The answer is usually either a) No; or b) Yes, and they were/are awful.
