She’s here! We just welcomed our beautiful baby girl and words can’t describe how blessed my family feels. Being a mom is one of the greatest joys of my life, and I’m beyond grateful. Thank you, everyone, for your love and support. It means the world 💕💕

In fact, we currently have a very obvious case y'all can pick up instead of getting death row inmates' executions stayed

I'm gonna be honest, if the defense had been "the state shouldn't have the authority to do so" I would've taken it despite actually not being uniformly opposed to the death penalty, but I'm sure AS FUCK not taking "uwu she's so traumatized by being raped that she brutally murdered another woman"

This is why more women don't come forward, and why more rapists aren't jailed. Because mostly-male cops and prosecutors find it more believable that a 20-yr-old would want to have sex with a room full of fraternity brothers than accept she was raped. What ever happened to common fucking sense?

I was totally baffled by this—I thought maybe I missed something. Because why would she go to police if she said it was all consensual? It turns out the DA was playing language games: Doe described what happened to her, and *prosecutors* made a legal determination that what happened wasn’t a crime.

Please don't give the DA reopening the Cornell case any cookies. District Attorney Matthew Van Houten all but called Jane Doe a liar today. He said that in Doe's initial statement, she described "her participation in drug use and sexual conduct as voluntary, conscious, and consensual.” CONSENSUAL

Rereading this article just makes me mad. We had folks working tirelessly for a ceasefire & we threw it away over a fantasy that there was a Bibi remote control on the Resolute Desk that Biden refused to use.

Plus you have to square it with the reality that: 1) Biden did threaten to cut off military assistance to Israel, 2) Bibi interpreted it as Biden *actually* cutting off aid AND NOTHING FUCKING CHANGED IN HOW ISRAEL PROSECUTED THE WAR

In general there is an inability to recognize that parties to the Gaza war had agency & acted on it. One of the things the Atlantic article makes clear is that Hamas kept backing out of ceasefire agreements because Sinwar believed prolonging the war would drive a wedge in the US/Israeli alliance.

I should add that Biden threatened military supplies to Israel in such a way that ISRAEL BELIEVED WE HAD ALREADY CUT THEM OFF & it still did not change their position at all.

I mean the whole idea here was that Biden could have stopped Israel from doing horrible things by threatening military supplies, & the fact that *he did do that* & it did not have the predicted effects is just completely ignored.

His legacy is a fractured left wing movement obsessed with conspiracy theories, a fascist President, and a generation's worth of lost progress. He smothered the next progressive revival in its cradle because of his Jupiter-sized ego.

Bernie Sanders took hold of a generation of young voters who were made conscious of societal inequality and injustice by the murder of Trayvon Martin and the rise of BLM, and told them that actually the real societal crisis was free trade and young white professionals being in debt.

I don't even agree that Bernie's measurably moved the party to the left, given how many of his acolytes ended up becoming either MAGA, or various other flavors of bigoted crank. The party was moving to the left, he just hijacked a preexisting shift and drove it into the ground out of pure ego.

You’re angrier at the future Speaker meeting with a guy who acts as the president’s envoy, where that meeting pissed the other guy off so much that he leaked it after getting nothing, than a mayor getting on his knees where he gifted Trump a platform & let him say whatever he wanted yet again.

Counterpoint, national politicians are actually required by their *job description* to work with and meet with the president of the United States. The mayor of any city is not required to do that, and nor should they. Thanks for getting politics ass-backwards.

This isn't about one article. It's about the entire ethos on this app that says that it's fine for someone to spread lies, to personally attack, or even just to be *wrong* - so long as they're sufficiently "upset". If someone is upset, that's more of a reason to make sure they're correct, not less.

I will never understand why people on this app spend so much time and energy trying to force everyone to just ignore when others are being destructively incoherent. It is not "having empathy" for someone to treat them with kid gloves when they're saying something stupid and destructive. Enough.

Bibi is not responsible for an antisemite shooting up Toronto synagogues. An antisemite bought the gun, loaded it, carried it, aimed it, and fired. At no point in that series of events does Bibi have agency. You can hate the guy for his hateful acts without shifting blame from other hateful people.
