If you’re not from Missouri, you may not know that Eric Schmitt got his start in MAGA politics by suing public schools for mask mandates while their teachers died during a pandemic. The really strange thing? He never sued his own kids’ school for their mask mandate. He’s a piece of Schitt.

There were six NBA games on Feb 3, 2024, in addition to 14 NCAA men's D1 games and 5 NCAA women's games. This is pretty normal Republican stuff. A baseless allegation that's meaningless if true, with equally ludicrous claims to support it.

When I was young, California was a swing state. Then their Republican governor wrote a somewhat less horrific version the Trump immigration playbook.

The person claiming to have doxed Jane Doe in the Cornell rape case is Aidan Thompson, a groyper nazi who runs "AF Post" which he took over from Ali Alexander (who also once faced sexual assault allegations of his own). Thompson described himself as a "rape expert" in his videos leading up to this.

If you’d asked me to parody how silly and broken legal journalism is, I genuinely don’t think I could have come up with “so the best-known ‘nonpartisan’ Supreme Court outlet is now run by an ex-Trump DOJ flack who had her longtime personal friend Brett Kavanaugh officiate her wedding”

Transphobia, a U of Kansas prof told me, "is historically comparable to any point in history, when those in power are punching down at the weakest in society. When you concede to them these points, you’re conceding that it’s OK to punch down and letting them position themselves to ask for even more"

And really, Frasier was brilliant because of the supporting cast. I doubt I’ll ever watch the revival simply because David Hyde Pierce isn’t in it. His portrayal of Niles elevated that show into something truly special.

Finished watching the 11-season run of Cheers, and I’m just flabbergasted by how much better Frasier was. Cheers was a good show, I’m glad I watched it, but no individual episodes stand out, and I don’t think I’ll want to rewatch it. Frasier was absolutely brilliant (even if Grammer is a POS).

Related: Buy my Miata. It's as fun going the speed limit as a Ferrari is committing felony reckless endangerment, and just knowing how to drive is enough to keep you out of the trees. Plus! A lot cheaper to buy, a lot cheaper to drive, and almost infinitely cheaper to fix.

There are a lot of cogent criticism of this response, but also, if you just hand a Ferrari to someone who "knows how to drive" they are going to wrap it around a tree, if you're lucky.
