It’s a pretty good picture.

When I started writing about Supreme Court expansion, you couldn’t get the question *asked* in a poll. The first time I saw it actually polled, it was 8%. Now, we here.

You should say "please" and "thank you" to AIs for the same reason you should use your turn signal when no one is around: so that you'll also do it when you're stressed and in a hurry and forgetful and won't accidentally be an asshole.

The political landscape this year is unlike anything we've ever seen in this country. It's never been easier for a Democrat to win by doing the right thing. If you can't bring yourself to give a full-throated defense of trans rights, then at least shut up about it and tie your opponent to Trump.

Not one Republican is going to vote for her as a consequence of this stance. It will lose her votes from the left. Despite what the loudest assholes on the internet are telling you, this isn't a winning issue for Dems.

Hm, I can see that reading, but I take it as descriptive of dynamics that exist, not prescriptive?

😂 I think it's a fantastic track, just out of place on that album and maybe the whole discography. It's like a side project track. The rest of the album has a really strong fairy tale/folk horror through line that makes it doubly out of place.

Oh god picking which Siouxsie album was rough; Looking Glass was also my first Very Own CD Pick, though, so. Peepshow would have been the pick if, ironically enough, Peek-a-Boo wasn't on it. No, I will not elaborate.

The fundamental problem the GOP is facing right now is that they're apocalyptic assholes and people are starting to notice that. You can't spend your way out of that, you can't rally your way out of that.
