Once again, neither Woke 1 nor Woke 2 is a thing that actually exists & we don’t have to keep doing this thing where everything in American political discourse happens entirely on the talking point frames of the far right authoritarian party: bsky.app/profile/mcop...

He lied about every single thing. Everyday. He ran knowing full well who he is while presenting himself as someone else (poorly). He wasted everyone’s time & money & shattered people’s credibility. He used the political process as a vanity project to the detriment of the folks he wanted to represent

Doctors say that a Vitamin K injection given at birth saves the lives of hundreds of newborns. A guy who snorts cocaine off toilet seats and takes raccoon penises home for "further study" says the injection can create mitochondrial challenges. For busy parents, it can be hard to know who to trust.

It's not hyperbole in the least to say Musk purchased a six-month shadow presidency for $280 million and used the power of that shadow presidency to 1. Steal the government’s data, 2. Permanently damage the state’s ability to regulate his businesses, and 3, kill non-white people.

Acknowledging the stark, ugly truth that the Republicans basically had no good reason to do what they have done for the last 11 years and have lapsed into vast collective psychosis over totally immaterial and utterly depraved delusions is terrifying, and as such most commentators simply do not do it

I feel like a good chunk of this is because it's kinda easy and cheap to make a real subpar beer and then just cram a ton of hops into it. Any deficiencies are masked by the hops. To be clear: not all IPAs, but if one wants to make a least-effort beer that still sells, this is a way to do that.

If it doesn't matter what the reality is, why care about anything? Just assume what the dumbest person you can imagine will think and then boom, it's impossible to be wrong! I genuinely don't know how Biden pardoning Hunter makes Trump fear repercussions.

Yep Biden was the first to ever pardon anyone, we all know this. Don't look it up just trust me. Biden took the bait due to Trump being such a proven master at 5D chess. If he hadn't, Trump wouldn't be able to because he's too embarrassed by the idea of breaking norms. Shame would've stopped him.
